Bath repair at your home in BN17
Small damage on a bath is worth repairing early. Exposed metal on enamelled baths soon rusts, while cracks in acrylic grow each time the bath moves. Repairing it stops the damage getting worse. We regularly repair pressed steel enamel, cast iron enamel and roll-top & freestanding, and common reasons people get in touch are rust spots around the plughole and scratches you can feel with a fingernail.
We begin by going over the job with you, so you know exactly what we are doing. Then the area is sheeted and masked and the work begins. Allow two to three hours for most chips.
- We protect the bath and the floor around it.
- The damaged area is cleaned, keyed and degreased, and any rust is treated.
- Filler goes in and is sanded flush once it has set.
- Colour and gloss are matched to the surrounding surface.
- We clear up and give you the curing time, normally until the day after.
Cost
Our bath repair starts from £95. No two jobs are quite the same, so we price each one individually. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all make a difference, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.
Why book with us
- Same prices wherever you are
- Colour-matched on site
- Free fixed quotes from pictures
- Dust sheets down, tidy finish
How to get a price
The quickest way to a price is to send two or three photos using our quote form or ring us. We will say immediately if a repair is the right fix.

Different materials, different repairs
Pressed steel
Steel baths and trays have a thin metal body under the enamel. Exposed steel rusts quickly, so we treat and seal the metal before filling.
Composite and resin
Composite baths are dense and solid. Chips and scratches can be filled and colour-matched, just like other baths.
What we’re called out for in BN17
Rust normally starts where water sits, around the waste, under the taps or in an old chip. Water on bare metal causes rust that creeps under the surrounding enamel.
You may need us if you’ve spotted:
- Damage beneath the taps
- Scuffs and scratches in the surface
- Snagging damage from a refit
- Rust by the waste and overflow
What a repair cannot fix
We would rather lose a job than do one that won’t last, so these are the limits:
- Cracks in parts of an acrylic bath we cannot get to from below
- Flexing caused by a failed cradle or loose feet
- A steel bath rusted through
DIY kit or professional repair?
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, it’s worth having it done properly.
Landlords, agents and businesses in BN17
We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Send the address, photos and access details and we’ll arrange it.
We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, fixing chips and scratches before handover. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.
Questions from BN17
Is the work guaranteed?
All our work carries our one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.
How long does the repair take to cure?
Normally the following day. We will tell you the exact curing time when we finish.
Do you come to BN17?
We do. Technicians travel to BN17 from across the region, with no extra charge for travel.
Will I be able to see the repair?
We aim for a repair you can’t easily find. How well it disappears depends on the condition of the rest of the bath.
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
Just keep them out of the work area. We’ll let you know when it’s safe to use again.
Are you a vetted contractor?
Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.
Does someone need to be in?
Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time we agree with you.
