About Bath Fixer Uckfield

Bath Fixer Uckfield deliver specialist bath repair, resurfacing, and enamel restoration across Uckfield and the wider East Sussex area. Our trained technicians repair everything from hairline chips in acrylic baths to full enamel restoration on cast iron tubs — providing a cost-effective alternative to complete bath replacement that saves our customers both money and disruption.

Our approach centres on accurate diagnosis before any work begins. Whether the problem is a single chip from a dropped shower fitting, widespread enamel deterioration on a decades-old bath, or stress fractures developing along the base of an acrylic tub, we match the right repair technique to the specific material and damage type. Cast iron, pressed steel, acrylic, stone resin, and fibreglass — each surface demands a different method, and Bath Fixer Uckfield have the training and experience to handle them all.

The distinction between Bath Fixer and other bathroom repair companies working in East Sussex is our two-stage bonding process. Most firms apply a single primer before the topcoat. We apply two bonding agents cured with a hot air gun to build an exceptionally strong adhesion layer between the new surface and the original bath. The result is a finish that resists chipping, peeling, and discolouration for years rather than months.

Beyond baths, we provide specialist repairs for sinks, basins, shower trays, ceramic tiles, uPVC surfaces, granite worktops, and solid surface fixtures. If a hard surface in your Uckfield home is damaged, cracked, chipped, or worn — there is a strong chance Bath Fixer can restore it without the cost of full replacement.

Nearby Areas We Serve: The same types of bathroom repair challenges we address in Uckfield are common across the surrounding towns and villages. Property owners in Crowborough and Heathfield face comparable issues with ageing baths, impact damage, and worn enamel surfaces.

Why Uckfield Property Owners Choose Bath Fixer

Uckfield sits at the edge of the Ashdown Forest within the High Weald, and its housing stock reflects the town's evolution from a small market settlement to the thriving commuter town it is today. Victorian and Edwardian cottages line the older streets around the High Street and Bell Lane, while substantial inter-war and post-war housing extends through Ridgewood, Rocks Park, and the New Town area. More recent developments on the town's southern and eastern fringes have added modern estates with contemporary bathroom fittings.

The cast iron and enamel baths found in Uckfield's older properties are prone to deep enamel chips where the coating has become brittle with age, rust patches where moisture has worked beneath the surface, and widespread dulling from years of cleaning with abrasive products. The acrylic and pressed steel baths common in newer builds and bathroom refurbishments are susceptible to impact cracks, scratches from heavy objects, and stress fractures — particularly around the waste area and along the base where weight is concentrated.

Bath Fixer Uckfield have built our reputation on understanding these distinctions. We do not apply a one-size-fits-all approach — we tailor every repair to the specific material, age, and condition of the surface in front of us. That practical knowledge, combined with our dual bonding system, is the difference between a bath repair that lasts and one that fails within months.

Recent Bath Repairs in Uckfield

Real examples of restoration work completed by Bath Fixer across the Uckfield and East Sussex area

Victorian Cast Iron Bath — Bell Lane

Uckfield, TN22
The Challenge

A homeowner in a late Victorian cottage on Bell Lane had an original cast iron roll-top bath that had served the property for over a century. The enamel had worn through along the base and sides, exposing bare metal that was beginning to rust. Several large chips around the tap end — caused by years of contact with a heavy brass shower attachment — had allowed water to penetrate beneath the surface. A bathroom fitter had quoted over £3,500 for removal, disposal, new plumbing connections, tiling repairs, and a replacement bath.

Our Solution

Bath Fixer Uckfield treated the corroded areas with a specialist rust inhibitor, rebuilt the damaged profiles with high-adhesion filler, and prepared the entire surface for our dual bonding agent application. Two coats of colour-matched enamel were sprayed and infrared cured on site. The perimeter was resealed and the original chrome fittings were cleaned and refitted.

The Result

The bath was restored to a gleaming, smooth finish with no visible trace of the previous corrosion or chip damage. The homeowner preserved a period fixture worth considerably more than any modern replacement, saved over £2,800 compared to the quoted replacement cost, and avoided weeks of bathroom disruption. The repair was completed in a single day with a written guarantee.

Acrylic Bath Stress Fracture — Ridgewood Estate

Ridgewood, TN22
The Challenge

A family in a 1990s detached house on the Ridgewood estate reported a network of hairline cracks radiating from the waste area of their acrylic bath, along with a deep gouge on the rim caused by a dropped ceramic tile during a shelf installation. The cracks had started to discolour and the homeowner was concerned about potential leaking. The builder initially recommended a full bath replacement at a cost of over £1,800 including re-tiling and plumbing work.

Our Solution

We stabilised every hairline crack to prevent further spread, filled the gouge with a structural-grade acrylic compound, and sanded the entire damaged area flush with the surrounding surface. The repaired sections were colour-matched to the original white finish and blended seamlessly. A protective topcoat was applied and cured using our infrared system.

The Result

The repair was completed in under five hours. The family avoided the cost and disruption of a full replacement and the bath showed no trace of the original damage. The structural integrity was fully restored and the surface finish matched the surrounding area perfectly. A written guarantee covered all work completed.

Pressed Steel Bath Restoration — New Town

Uckfield, TN22
The Challenge

A landlord managing a rental property in the New Town area of Uckfield needed the bathroom refreshed between tenancies. The pressed steel bath had extensive surface wear along the base, multiple chips around the overflow, and a ring of hard water staining that years of cleaning had failed to shift. The bath was structurally sound but cosmetically poor — enough to put off prospective tenants during viewings.

Our Solution

Bath Fixer removed the mineral deposits with specialist descaling agents, repaired every chip and surface defect, and prepared the full bath for resurfacing. Our dual bonding agents were applied and cured, followed by two coats of professional-grade enamel sprayed to a uniform gloss. The bath was resealed and polished to a factory-standard finish.

The Result

The bath looked brand new. The landlord was able to let the property within a fortnight of the repair, and the total cost came in at less than a quarter of what a replacement would have required. The tenants commented positively on the bathroom condition during their check-in inspection.

Shower Tray & Basin Repair — Rocks Park

Uckfield, TN22
The Challenge

A homeowner in a 1960s property in the Rocks Park area had both a cracked stone resin shower tray and a chipped ceramic pedestal basin. The shower tray had developed a deep crack across one corner where the supporting base had shifted slightly, and the basin had two visible chips on the front rim from a falling bathroom cabinet door. Replacing both items separately would have involved two tradespeople, extensive disruption, and a combined cost exceeding £2,000.

Our Solution

We repaired the shower tray crack with a flexible structural compound designed for stone resin, then blended and colour-matched the repair to the original surface. The basin chips were filled, shaped, and finished to match the existing glaze. Both items were treated in a single visit by the same technician.

The Result

Both repairs were invisible to the eye and completed within a single morning. The homeowner saved over £1,500 compared to replacement costs and avoided the disruption of plumbing disconnection, tiling work, and waste removal. Written guarantees covered both repairs.

Our Bath Resurfacing Process

Step-by-step breakdown of how Bath Fixer Uckfield restore your bath to factory-fresh condition

1
Protection & Preparation

We dust-sheet the flooring, WC, basin, radiators, and major fixtures. Old sealant is removed and the surrounding area is thoroughly protected before any work begins.

2
Deep Clean & Damage Repair

Specialist cleaning agents remove all residue. We then repair every imperfection — chips, cracks, abrasions, mineral deposits, and erosion. Structural issues are addressed at this stage.

3
Masking & Surface Prep

Tiles, walls, taps, drain, and overflow are masked with specialist covering materials. A professional-grade degreaser eliminates any remaining contaminants from the bath surface.

4
Dual Bonding Agent Application

We apply the first bonding agent, then reinforce with a second primer using high-temperature application. This two-stage process — unique to Bath Fixer — creates an ultra-durable bond with the original surface.

5
Enamel Spray & Infrared Curing

The new enamel surface is professionally sprayed and cured using our infrared low-bake system. This accelerates bonding and produces a smooth, hard-wearing factory-quality finish.

6
Polish, Seal & Final Check

We polish the surface to perfection, remove all masking, and apply a protective waterproof sealant to ensure a watertight, secure finish. The bath is inspected before sign-off.

What Our Uckfield Clients Say

Feedback from homeowners and landlords who have used Bath Fixer in East Sussex

Caroline M.
Uckfield — 10/02/2025

"Brilliant service from start to finish. Ilia arrived on time, explained exactly what he would do, and worked carefully throughout. Our old cast iron bath had deep chips around the plug area and the enamel was badly worn. It now looks absolutely stunning — like a brand new bath. Cannot recommend Bath Fixer highly enough."

James R.
Ridgewood — 18/11/2024

"We had a cracked acrylic bath in our rental property that needed fixing before new tenants moved in. Bath Fixer came out within three days, repaired the crack and resurfaced the whole bath in one visit. The tenants were delighted and so were we. Excellent value for money and a very professional outfit."

Helen T.
Rocks Park — 05/08/2024

"Alex repaired several chips in our bathroom basin and resurfaced our bath — both look immaculate. He was tidy, professional, and the colour match is perfect. We were quoted over three thousand pounds for replacements so this saved us a fortune. Highly recommend Bath Fixer to anyone in the Uckfield area."

Frequently Asked Questions — Bath Repair Uckfield

Common questions answered by Bath Fixer Uckfield

Bath resurfacing in Uckfield typically costs between forty and sixty per cent less than a full bath replacement. A single chip or crack repair starts from ninety-five pounds, while a complete bath resurfacing starts from three hundred and forty-five pounds. The exact cost depends on the extent of the damage, the bath material, and the scope of work required. We provide free, no-obligation quotes for all Uckfield properties.

Yes — cast iron bath restoration is one of our core specialities. Many of the period properties in Uckfield town centre and surrounding villages still have original cast iron baths that are far superior to modern replacements. We repair chips, restore worn enamel, treat rust damage, and fully resurface cast iron baths to a factory-quality finish using our dual bonding agent system.

Yes. Our professional coating system is engineered for use on bathtubs, washbasins, sink pedestals, and ceramic tile surfaces. We can refinish your full bathroom suite to match any preferred colour. The only item we advise replacing rather than resurfacing is the toilet, because the abrasive cleaning chemicals and brushes used in regular toilet cleaning will gradually degrade the refinished coating over time.

A standard bath resurfacing appointment takes between four and six hours on site. This includes surface preparation, chip and crack repair, the application of two bonding agents, the enamel spray coating, infrared curing, and final polishing. The bath is ready for light use within twenty-four hours and fully cured within forty-eight hours of completion.

Our experience is shaped primarily by the failed DIY repairs we are called to rectify. The kits available from hardware stores use consumer-grade materials that lack the durability and adhesion of professional coatings. They often produce a visible patch, a rough texture, or a finish that yellows and peels within months. A professional repair by Bath Fixer Uckfield costs more than a kit but delivers a result that lasts years rather than weeks.

Bath Fixer covers the whole of Uckfield and the wider East Sussex area. Our regular service areas include Uckfield town centre, Ridgewood, Rocks Park, Buxted, Maresfield, Framfield, Crowborough, Heathfield, and Lewes. We also attend properties across the surrounding High Weald villages and towns.

Crowborough's elevated position on the High Weald ridge means its housing stock includes substantial Edwardian villas, 1930s family homes, and newer developments on the town's expanding edges.
