Bath repair in Branksome Park

Bath repair at your home in Branksome Park

A damaged bath does not have to mean a new bathroom. Our repair technicians fill, shape and refinish the damage, mixing the colour on the day so the repair is hard to spot. Our repair technicians work on roll-top & freestanding, cast iron enamel and acrylic, and the jobs we see most are scratches you can feel with a fingernail and a hole punched through by something heavy.

The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If something isn’t right in that time, we come back and put it right.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely and work on a clean, dry surface, and give it the full curing time. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.

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.

Honest limits

In fairness, some problems need a different fix:

  • A whole bath that is dull or worn, where a full re-enamel is the better fix
  • Leaks from the waste or overflow fittings (a plumber’s job)
  • Acrylic cracks with no access behind them

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

Surfaces we repair

  • Roll-top & freestanding
  • Cast iron enamel
  • Whirlpool & spa baths
  • Pressed steel enamel
  • Acrylic

Repairing versus replacing in Branksome Park

A repair makes sense whenever the damage is localised. It costs far less than a new bath plus fitting, it’s done in one visit, and the bathroom stays exactly as it is. Our bath repair starts from £95. The price reflects the work involved, not your postcode. The full price is agreed before booking.

  • Fixed prices from your photos
  • Nothing taken out or refitted
  • Honest advice, even when it means no job

When to call us in Branksome Park

A cracked acrylic bath typically wasn’t supported properly. Legs that are not adjusted, a missing cradle or a soft floor let the bath move until it cracks.

Signs it’s time to call us include:

  • Rust by the waste and overflow
  • Chips caused by builders
  • Chips under the taps
  • A cracked acrylic bath

What to look for in a quote

  • How your room will be protected

Choosing a repair company

What bath repair costs

Repairs from £95. A fixed quote means you know the cost before booking. We look at:

  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • What the surface is made of
  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • Whether we combine several jobs

Rather than charging by the hour, we price the entire job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and doing several items at once reduces it.

Getting a price from pictures

You can typically get a fixed quote without us visiting. To make it quick:

  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • Natural light rather than flash
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before

Send us a photo of the damage and one of the entire item, with your BH13 postcode, and we’ll come back with a fixed quote.

Landlord and trade work in Branksome Park

If you manage property in Branksome Park, we will quote for several properties at once. Send pictures for each one and we’ll price them together.

Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which is easier on the people living there.

What we do, step by step

Here’s how a visit typically runs: we arrive at the agreed slot, protect everything around the work area, carry out the work and tidy away. Plan for a morning or an afternoon from start to finish. Before leaving, we tell you how long to leave it and what to avoid for the first few days.

  1. We start by looking at the damage and confirming the plan with you.
  2. Loose enamel, rust and dirt are removed so the repair can bond.
  3. The damage is filled in layers and shaped to the curve of the bath.
  4. We tint the finish by hand to match the bath.
  5. Finally, it’s polished to match the shine and left to cure.

Preparing for the visit

  • Point us to the nearest place to park
  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift

Getting a price

Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: photograph the damage, then the whole bath, add your postcode and send them over. You will get a fixed quote, not an estimate.

Aftercare tips

A little care keeps the finish looking good. We recommend:

  • Get a dripping tap fixed promptly
  • Give the bath a quick rinse after use
  • Do not leave a fresh chip for long
  • Protect the bath with a towel when doing jobs nearby

Treat the repaired area like the rest of the bath: a soft cloth and washing-up liquid is all it needs. Keep scouring pads and gritty cleaners away from it.

Rust spreads under enamel faster than most people expect. A chip the size of a fingernail can become a much larger patch if it’s left for months, so early repair keeps the cost down.

Common questions in Branksome Park

Can you quote from pictures?

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

Can you redo an old repair?

Yes, we do this often. The old material comes out, any rust is treated, then we repair it properly.

Will the repair last?

It should, as long as the bath is firm and the area was prepared well. It carries our one-year guarantee.

Can rust on a bath be repaired?

Yes, it’s one of the most common repairs we do. The rust is cut back to clean metal and sealed before we fill and finish it.

Can landlords book you?

Yes, frequently. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.

Are you a vetted contractor?

Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.

What happens once I’ve sent pictures?

We review the pictures and send a fixed quote.

Can I add another job to the visit?

Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Send photos of everything you’d like done.
