How bath repair works in RH20

A typical bath repair is a few hours’ work, and you can typically bathe again the next day. You will not need a plumber or tiler, because nothing is disconnected. We work on cast iron enamel, roll-top & freestanding and pressed steel enamel, and people most frequently call us about chips on the rim or sides and a kit repair that didn’t last.

You do not need to empty the room. Everything we use comes in the van with us, lay protective sheets and start once you are happy with the plan. Most jobs take a few hours, depending on the damage, and you’re welcome to carry on with your day while we work.

  1. We start by cleaning the damage and taking out loose enamel and rust.
  2. The chip or crack is filled, then sanded level with the bath.
  3. The colour is mixed on the spot to match your bath.
  4. We apply the finish coats and polish the repair so it blends in.
  5. The repair is left to cure, and most baths can be used the day after.

What you’ll pay

Our bath repair starts from £95. Every job is a little different, so each one is priced on its own. The size and type of damage, the material and access all play a part, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

What we’re called out for in RH20

A cracked acrylic bath normally wasn’t supported properly. Loose legs, no proper cradle or a floor that gives let the bath move.

The things clients typically mention when they call are:

  • Snagging damage from a refit
  • A kit repair that didn’t last
  • Hairline or through cracks in acrylic
  • A chipped rim or side

DIY repairs versus a professional job

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, a professional repair is worth it.

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is generally cheaper.

Aftercare tips

To keep it looking its best for years:

  • A dripping tap stains enamel, so fix it early
  • Stick to mild cleaners and a soft cloth
  • Keep metal cans and razors off the surface
  • Check that an acrylic bath does not move when you stand in it

Treat the repaired area like the rest of the bath: warm water, washing-up liquid and a soft cloth. Avoid scourers and gritty cream cleaners.

If an acrylic bath has a crack, stop showering in it until it’s repaired. Each time it flexes, the crack grows, and water can get through to the floor below.

Why repair rather than replace?

Swapping a damaged bath for a new one normally involves a plumber, lifting out the old bath, making good the tiles and panel and getting rid of the old bath. Repairing it deals only with the damage in one visit.

What your quote should include

  • How your room will be protected
  • The length of the guarantee and what it covers
  • What happens if the damage is worse than the photos show
  • Whether there are any call-out or travel charges

RH20: your questions answered

Do you work for landlords and businesses?

Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as householders across West Sussex.

Can I get a quote without a visit?

In nearly every case. If photos do not show enough, we’ll ask for another angle.

Is it messy?

No. The work area is masked and covered, and we take our waste away with us.

Can you repair something that’s been repaired before?

Most of the time. Let us know what was used before and we will plan for it.

Will I be able to see the repair?

The goal is a repair that blends in. How well it disappears depends on the condition of the rest of the bath, and we will tell you what to expect.

Will there be a smell?

There can be some smell while we work, so we ventilate the room. It fades as everything cures.

Do you cover RH20?

Yes. We work across the UK and come to RH20. Send us pictures for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
