About bath repair in PO18

Whether your bath is steel, cast iron or acrylic, we can repair it. The method changes with the material: metal baths need any rust dealt with first, and acrylic cracks need support from behind. Typical jobs include rust spots around the plughole and deep scratches in acrylic, in cast iron enamel, roll-top & freestanding and whirlpool & spa baths.

Nothing needs to be moved out of the room beforehand. Everything we use comes in the van with us, put protection down and get going once we’ve agreed what we are doing. Most jobs take a morning or an afternoon, and you can get on with other things while we’re there.

  1. We start by cleaning the damage and taking out loose enamel and rust.
  2. Next we fill the damage and sand it smooth and level.
  3. We mix the colour on the day to match your bath’s exact shade.
  4. Finish coats go on, then the repair is polished to blend in.
  5. The repair is left to cure, and most baths can be used the day after.

Landmarks near Bosham

Around Bosham, we work in homes near The United Reformed Church, The Berkeley Arms Public House and Bosham Primary School and the streets around them.

When a repair is not the answer

We’ll always be straight with you, so here’s what a repair won’t do:

  • Acrylic cracks with no access behind them
  • A whole bath that’s dull or worn, where a full re-enamel is the better fix
  • A bath that moves underfoot, until its support is fixed

Prices and what affects them

Repairs from £95. We do not charge extra for travel to PO18. The price depends on:

  • The type of damage
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • How hard the colour is to match
  • The material and finish

The price reflects the work involved, not where you live. You’ll see the full price before you book.

Quotes from your photos

Good photos mean an accurate price. Here’s what we find most useful:

  • One picture of the entire bath
  • Where you are, by postcode
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before

We price from photos so you don’t have to wait in for a survey. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through.

What we are called out for in PO18

Rust typically starts where water sits, around the waste, under the taps or in an old chip. Once water reaches the steel or iron, rust spreads under the enamel.

These are the problems we are asked about most:

  • Chips on the rim or sides
  • A chip where the taps sit
  • A cracked acrylic bath
  • Impact holes in acrylic

Keeping it looking good

Much of the damage we repair could have been avoided. These habits help:

  • Rinse the bath after use, especially in hard water areas
  • Make sure an acrylic bath is firm underfoot
  • A dripping tap stains enamel, so fix it early
  • Use a soft cloth and washing-up liquid for everyday cleaning

Leave the repair to cure for as long as we say before using the bath. After that, gentle cleaning keeps it looking good.

Do not leave a chip on a steel or cast iron bath. Once water reaches the metal, rust begins, and a rust spot is a bigger repair than a clean chip.

Why repair rather than replace?

If the rest of the bath is in good condition, a repair is almost always the better choice. It’s quicker, cheaper and far less disruptive, and the bathroom stays as it is. If the entire surface is worn, re-enamelling may make more sense, and we will tell you.

Questions to ask before you book

  • How long it needs to cure
  • How the room is protected while they work
  • What the guarantee covers, and for how long
  • How changes to the job are handled

Questions from PO18

Do I need to be at home?

Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. After that, you can carry on with your day.

Can landlords book you?

Yes, often. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.

Can you quote from photos?

Nearly always. We only ask to see it in person if the pictures can’t show what we need.

What happens once I’ve sent pictures?

You’ll get a fixed quote back, typically with dates to choose from. There is no obligation to book.

How soon can you come?

We’ll give you dates with your quote. Tell us if you need it done quickly.

Is a repair better than a new one?

Normally, when the rest is in good condition. A repair avoids removal and making good. If replacing would be better, we’ll say so.

Can I add another job to the visit?

Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Include pictures of each item.
