Bath repair in Blandford Forum without replacing anything
Small damage on a bath is worth repairing early. Exposed metal on enamelled baths soon rusts, while cracks in acrylic grow each time the bath moves. A repair stops both. Whether it’s an old repair that has yellowed or come loose and impact holes in acrylic, we can generally put it right, on acrylic, pressed steel enamel and whirlpool & spa baths alike.
Big or small, it’s backed by a one-year guarantee in Blandford Forum and across Dorset.

Blandford Forum: your questions answered
Can landlords book you?
Yes, often. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.
What if the damage is worse than the photos show?
The price is fixed for what the photos show. Anything extra is discussed before we begin.
Is it messy?
Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we take our waste away with us.
Will there be a smell?
There can be some smell while we work, which is why we ventilate. It fades as everything cures.
How quickly can you book me in?
It depends on the time of year and where you are. Send photos with your postcode and we will reply with the earliest dates.
Do you repair coloured baths?
Yes, coloured baths are no problem. The colour is tinted by hand on the day.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Of course, and it normally saves money. Send pictures of everything together and you will get one combined price.
Is there a guarantee?
Every repair comes with a one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.
How the visit works
A typical visit goes like this: we arrive at the agreed slot, sheet and mask the area around the job, do the job and tidy away. Plan for a morning or an afternoon. Before we go, we will explain when it can be used and how to care for it.
- We clean the area and remove any loose enamel or rust.
- Next we fill the damage and sand it smooth and level.
- The colour is mixed on the spot to match your bath.
- We build up the finish and polish it into the surrounding enamel.
- The repair is left to cure, and most baths can be used the day after.
Getting ready for the visit
- Tell us about parking, stairs or access
- Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
Getting a price
We price from pictures 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.
Related advice
Keeping it looking good
Looking after the surface is easy:
- Rinse the bath after use, especially in hard water areas
- Do not scrub with anything abrasive
- Fix dripping taps early to stop staining and limescale
- Protect the bath with a towel when doing jobs nearby
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. Every use opens the crack a little more, and water can get through to the floor below.
When to call us in Blandford Forum
Acrylic baths that crack nearly always have a support problem. Loose legs, no proper cradle or a floor that gives let the bath move until the acrylic gives way.
Signs it’s time to call us include:
- Cracks in an acrylic bath
- Impact holes in acrylic
- Deep scratches in acrylic
- Chips caused by builders

Honest limits
Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:
- Leaking fittings, which need a plumber
- A bath that flexes because its feet or cradle have failed (that needs fixing first)
- A steel bath rusted through
If in doubt, send photos and we will say what we think before you book.

Materials and what they mean for the repair
Acrylic
An acrylic bath is a moulded sheet strengthened from below. There’s no rust, but cracks, holes and scratches happen, and cracks need support from behind to stay fixed.
Composite and resin
Composite baths are dense and solid. Chips and scratches can be filled and colour-matched, just like other baths.
DIY repairs versus a professional job
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair will not last.
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is typically the cheaper route.
For landlords and businesses
We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Blandford Forum as well as householders. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it costs much less than replacing.
We’re used to working with agents and managing companies. Just send photos, the address and how to get access and we will arrange it.
