Questions from Burleston
Is there a call-out fee?
We do not add a call-out fee. The fixed price covers the visit and the work.
Do you cover the entire of Dorset?
Everywhere in the UK, Burleston included. There’s no extra charge for travel.
Will there be a smell?
Some materials have a smell while they’re applied, which is why we ventilate. It fades as everything cures.
Is a bath repair durable?
A properly prepared repair should last a long time, and ours come with a one-year guarantee. Gentle cleaning helps.
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
We can work for tenants, landlords or agents. Just ensure the landlord agrees.
Do you repair coloured baths?
Yes, coloured baths are no problem. The colour is tinted by hand on the day.
How soon can you come?
We will give you dates with your quote. Tell us if you need it done quickly.
Will it make a mess?
We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and we clean up when we have finished.
Bath repair in Burleston, done in place
It pays to repair bath damage while it’s small. Exposed metal on enamelled baths soon rusts, while cracks in acrylic grow each time the bath moves. A repair stops both. Whether it’s holes from dropped items and hairline or through cracks in acrylic, we can help, whatever the material.
The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If there’s a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it.

Landlord and trade work in Burleston
We’re used to working with agents and managing companies. Send the address, photos and access details and we’ll arrange it.
Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover. We can visit several plots in one trip to keep costs down.
DIY repairs versus a professional job
For a hairline mark somewhere you will never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
Repairs by material
Cast iron
A cast iron bath is heavy enough that most people never want to move it. Only the enamel surface wears or chips, and that is what we repair.
Composite and resin
Stone resin and composite baths are heavy and solid. Chips and scratches are filled and matched, in much the same way.
Why repair rather than replace?
Replacing a bath rarely stops at the bath: tiles along the rim typically crack when it comes out, a new panel is frequently needed, and a plumber has to disconnect and reconnect everything. Repairing the damage avoids all of that. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Send photos and we’ll give you the exact figure.

Read our pricing and guide to resurfacing and replacement costs.
The process
Your technician turns up at the time we agreed with you, introduces themselves and looks over the damage before anything else. Dust sheets and masking tape go down before any work starts. Most visits take a few hours, and we leave the room as we found it.
- We protect the bath and the floor around it.
- The damaged area is cleaned, keyed and degreased, and any rust is treated.
- Filler goes in and is sanded flush once it has set.
- Colour and gloss are matched to the surrounding surface.
- We tidy up and tell you when the bath can be used, typically the day after.
How to prepare
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
- Keep a parking space free if you can
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day

What we are called out for in Burleston
Rust tends to begin where water collects, by the plughole, beneath dripping taps or in an unrepaired chip. Water on bare metal causes rust that creeps under the surrounding enamel.
Typical reasons for a call-out include:
- Chips on the rim or sides
- Damage beneath the taps
- A cracked acrylic bath
- Rusty patches near the plughole
Before booking anyone
- Whether the colour is mixed to match
- A fixed quote, and whether VAT is included
- Who turns up on the day
- How soon you can use it again
Keeping it looking good
Much of the damage we repair could have been avoided. A few tips:
- Have new chips seen to early
- Rinse it down after each bath
- Use a soft cloth and washing-up liquid for everyday cleaning
- Don’t scrub with anything abrasive
In the first few days, avoid putting weight or bottles on the repair. After that, normal gentle cleaning is fine without abrasive products.
A chip on a metal bath shouldn’t be left. Once water reaches the metal, rust begins, turning a quick repair into a bigger one.

What else we do in Burleston
When a repair is not the answer
Not everything can be repaired, and we would rather say so up front. We cannot fix:
- Rust that has eaten right through a steel bath
- Water coming from the waste or taps rather than the bath
- A bath that flexes because its feet or cradle have failed (that needs fixing first)
