How we handle bath repair in Cerne Abbas
A typical bath repair is a few hours’ work, and the bath is back in use the next day. There’s no need to book a plumber or tiler, because nothing is disconnected. Whether it’s a chipped rim or side and scuffs and scratches in the surface, we can generally put it right, whatever the material.
We guarantee the work for a year. If something isn’t right in that time, we come back and put it right.

Keeping it looking good
Looking after the surface is easy, and it makes a real difference:
- Get any new chip repaired before it rusts
- Use a soft cloth and washing-up liquid for everyday cleaning
- Avoid scourers, wire wool and gritty cream cleaners
- Fix dripping taps early to stop staining and limescale
Look after the repair the same way as the bath: a soft cloth and washing-up liquid is all it needs. Keep scouring pads and gritty cleaners away from it.
Don’t leave a chip on a steel or cast iron bath. Once water reaches the metal, rust begins, turning a quick repair into a bigger one.
For landlords and businesses
Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover, so there’s no need to replace a damaged item at the last minute. We can visit several plots in one trip.
Letting agents often send us photos straight from the inventory. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.
Repair or replace in Cerne Abbas?
A repair makes sense whenever the damage is localised. It costs far less than a new bath plus fitting, it takes one visit, and nothing else in the room changes. Prices start from £95. A repair generally costs much less than people expect, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Photos let us give you the exact figure.
Why us?
- Every repair guaranteed for a year
- A fixed quote before you book
- Nothing taken out or refitted
- Rooms protected and left tidy

Can pets and children be at home?
Please keep children and pets out of the room during the visit. The rest of the house is unaffected.

Yes: twelve months. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.

We come back with a fixed quote, plus dates. There’s no obligation to book.
What your bath is made of matters
Pressed steel
Steel baths are lighter than cast iron, but have a similar enamel surface. Chips rust quickly on steel, especially around the waste, so repair chips early.
Composite and resin
Composite baths are dense and solid, and often freestanding. Chips and scratches are filled and matched, just like other baths.
Prices and what affects them
Repairs from £95. We charge the same across the UK, including Cerne Abbas. What changes the price is:
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- The colour and finish to match
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- The size and number of damaged areas
We charge the same wherever you are, with no extra for Cerne Abbas. The job itself decides the price: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.
How to get a fixed price
When you take your pictures, these tips help us give you a firm price:
- Details of any past repairs
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- One picture of the entire bath
- The material, if you know it
A quote takes minutes to ask for: photograph the damage, then the whole bath, include your postcode and send them to us. You will get a fixed quote, not an estimate.
How it works
On the day, we arrive at the time we have agreed, cover the area with dust sheets and masking, and set to work. Expect it to take two to three hours for most chips. We clean up when we are done and tell you when it’s ready to use.
- Dust sheets and masking go down around the bath.
- We clean, key and degrease the damage, and any rust is treated.
- We fill it, let it set, then sand it flush.
- Colour and gloss are matched to the surrounding surface.
- We clear up and give you the curing time, normally until the following day.
How to prepare
- Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
Get a quote
To get a price, send two or three pictures through our quote form or call us. We will say right away whether it can be repaired.

DIY kit or professional repair?
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, it’s worth having it done properly.
If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, and give it the full curing time. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.
