Our bath repair service in Dorset

We repair enamelled steel, cast iron and acrylic baths. The method changes with the material: rust is treated on metal baths, while cracks in acrylic are reinforced from underneath. Common call-outs are for a failed DIY repair that’s discoloured or lifting and chips under the taps, across cast iron enamel, whirlpool & spa baths and roll-top & freestanding.

The work is clean and fairly quiet. Protection goes down 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.

Dust sheets and masking go down around the bath.
The damaged area is cleaned, keyed and degreased, and any rust is treated.
Filler goes in and is sanded flush once it has set.
We match both the colour and the shine.
We clear up and give you the curing time, normally until the next day.

Pricing in Dorset

Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. Damage, material and access decide it, and combining items on one visit brings it down.

Local landmarks in Weymouth

Around Weymouth, we work in homes near The Star Public House, Beechcroft St Pauls CofE Primary School and Nothe Gardens. Nearby too are Budmouth College (1.2 miles west) and Church of St Paul (within half a mile south). There’s a railway station in Weymouth itself: Weymouth station. Further afield, we also cover the area around Portwey Hospital (0.6 miles south) and Weymouth Timewalk Museum (0.9 miles west). Green spaces nearby include Jordan Hill and Radipole Lake.

Different materials, different repairs

Pressed steel

Under the enamel of a steel bath is thin metal. Once a chip exposes it, rust follows quickly, so we treat and seal the metal before filling.

Cast iron

Cast iron baths are so heavy that repairing in place makes obvious sense. The enamel is the part that wears or chips, and that’s the part we put right.

Should you replace it?

Cast iron baths in particular are worth repairing: they’re very heavy to remove, especially upstairs, and a like-for-like replacement can be expensive. A repair keeps it in place.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is normally cheaper.

For a hairline mark somewhere you will never see, a kit may be enough. 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.

What we are called out for in Dorset

Dropped items cause the majority of chips, and a lot happen during bathroom refits. Acrylic baths crack for a different reason: the bath is not properly supported, so it flexes under weight.

The things clients generally mention when they call include:

Chips along the edge of the bath
Hairline or through cracks in acrylic
A kit repair that didn’t last
Rusty patches near the plughole

What affects the price in Dorset

Repairs from £95. You’ll know the full cost before booking. We look at:

How many areas need work
Where the damage is and how we get to it
Any earlier repairs that need removing first
What kind of damage it is

The price depends on the type and amount of damage, the material and how many jobs we combine into one visit. You get a fixed quote from your pictures, so there are no surprises on the day.

How to get a fixed price

Before you send pictures, these tips help us give you a firm price:

What it’s made of, if you know
Your postcode, so we can check dates
A close-up of the damage, in focus
A photo taken from further back

The quickest way to a price is to send a couple of photos using our quote form or call us. We’ll say straight away whether it can be repaired.
