Bath repair in Alderbury

Bath repair in Alderbury, done in place

Whatever has happened to the bath, we aim for the same result: a repair that is smooth, sound and hard to spot. Proper preparation, careful filling and shaping, then colour and gloss matching so it sits flush with the rest of the bath. Common call-outs are for chips on the rim or sides and a hole punched through by something heavy, across acrylic, whirlpool & spa baths and cast iron enamel.

Your repair is guaranteed for a year, as with every job we do.

Repair or replace: which is better?

Many people think a damaged bath means a new one. In most cases it does not: a repair keeps the bath in service for years, without the cost and upheaval of replacing it. Our bath repair starts from £95. It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Send photos and you will get a fixed figure.

Why us?

  • Every repair guaranteed for a year
  • CHAS and Constructionline accredited
  • Same prices wherever you are
  • Everything repaired in place

How it works

We work cleanly and quietly. We protect the area first, then the job itself takes a few hours, depending on the damage. At the end we talk you through the curing time and the aftercare.

  1. First, we check the damage against your pictures and agree the plan.
  2. Any rust and loose material comes out, and the area is degreased.
  3. We build up the filler in layers, shaping it to the bath.
  4. We tint the finish by hand to match the bath.
  5. The repair is polished to the same gloss as the bath and left to cure.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
  • Point us to the nearest place to park
  • Let us know about parking or access

Related advice

Signs you need bath repair in Alderbury

Rust tends to begin where water collects, by the plughole, beneath dripping taps or in an unrepaired chip. Once water reaches the steel or iron, rust spreads under the enamel.

It’s worth getting a quote if you see:

  • Holes from dropped items
  • A failed DIY repair that is discoloured or lifting
  • Deep scratches in acrylic
  • Damage beneath the taps

What your quote should include

  • What happens if they find more damage
  • How the colour is matched
  • How soon you can use it again
  • What preparation is included

Our hiring checklist

Keeping it looking good

Once the work has cured, treat it gently:

  • Get any new chip repaired before it rusts
  • Store metal items away from the bath
  • Do not scrub with anything abrasive
  • Stick to mild cleaners and a soft cloth

There is nothing special to do after a repair, beyond gentle cleaning. Avoid bleach-based and gritty cleaners and rinse after use.

A small chip is a quick job. Leave them and they collect dirt, stain and, on metal baths, rust, so early repair saves time and money.

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Cast iron

Cast iron baths are thick and very strong, finished with fired enamel. A chip down to the iron can rust, but the bath itself lasts for generations, so it’s always worth repairing.

Composite and resin

Composite baths are dense and solid, and often freestanding. Chips and scratches can be filled and colour matched, just like other baths.

What we cannot put right

Some jobs aren’t right for a repair, including:

  • Rust that has eaten right through a steel bath
  • Wear across the entire surface, which needs re-enamelling
  • Flexing caused by a failed cradle or loose feet

If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think.

We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which matters when someone is living in the home.

In most cases. We reinforce the crack from behind, then fill and refinish the front, so access behind the panel is important.

What bath repair costs

Repairs from £95. We give every job a fixed price from pictures. These are the things that affect it:

  • What the surface is made of
  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • How much damage there is
  • The colour and finish to match

We do not add extras on the day. What we quote from your pictures is what you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.

How to get a fixed quote

Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what to send:

  • Any details about the material
  • One picture of the whole bath
  • Something in shot to show the size
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit

A quote takes minutes to ask for: take one close-up and one wider shot of the bath, add your postcode and send them to us. What comes back is a fixed price, not a guess.
