Bath Repair in Duddleswell
Problem with your bath in Duddleswell? We put it right where it is, mix the colour on the day and back it with a one-year guarantee.
- Repairs from £95
- Chips caused by builders
- Rust spots around the plughole
Aftercare tips
It’s all simple stuff, just a few sensible habits:
- Keep metal cans and razors off the surface
- Cover the bath during DIY or decorating
- Check that an acrylic bath doesn’t move when you stand in it
- Get a dripping tap fixed promptly
For the first few days, keep heavy bottles off the repaired spot. After that, normal gentle cleaning is fine, avoiding abrasives.
A chip on a metal bath shouldn’t be left. Water gets to the metal and rust starts, turning a quick repair into a bigger one.
How we handle bath repair in Duddleswell
A typical bath repair is a few hours’ work, and the bath is back in use the following day. You will not need a plumber or tiler, because the bath does not move. If you’re dealing with scratches you can feel with a fingernail and cracks in an acrylic bath, we can normally put it right, on whirlpool & spa baths, cast iron enamel and pressed steel enamel alike.
Big or small, it’s backed by a one-year guarantee.

How the visit works
Nothing needs to be moved out of the room. We bring everything we need with us, lay protective sheets and get going once we’ve agreed what we are doing. Most jobs take a few hours, and you can get on with other things while we’re there.
- First, we check the damage against your pictures and agree the plan.
- Any rust and loose material comes out, and the area is degreased.
- We build up the filler in layers, shaping it to the bath.
- The colour is tinted by hand until it matches.
- Finally, it’s polished to match the shine and left to cure.
How to prepare
- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
- Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings

For anyone letting property in or around Duddleswell, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Just send photos for each address and we’ll price them together.

Repair or replace in Duddleswell?
A repair makes sense whenever the damage is localised. It’s a fraction of the cost of a new bath and fitting, it’s done in one visit, and the bathroom stays exactly as it is. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. A few things move the price: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Send pictures and you’ll get a fixed figure.
Why book with us
- One visit for most repairs
- Straight answers about what a repair can do
- We come to you, anywhere in the UK
- Nothing taken out or refitted
Read our prices page or guide to resurfacing and replacement costs.
How we price bath repair
Prices start from £95. We charge the same across the UK, including Duddleswell. The price reflects:
- The size and number of damaged areas
- Whether we combine several jobs
- Unusual colours or finishes
- The material
What it costs depends on how much damage there is and what kind, what it’s made of and how many jobs we combine into one visit. You get a fixed quote from your photos, so you know the cost before you book.
Send pictures for a quote
We price nearly every job from photos. This is what to send:
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- Any details about the material
- A photo taken from further back
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: photograph the damage, then the entire bath, add your postcode and send them over. What comes back is a fixed quote, not a guess.
Duddleswell questions
How invisible is a bath repair?
The goal is a repair that blends in. How well it disappears depends on the condition of the rest of the bath.
Do you repair coloured baths?
Yes. The colour is mixed on site to suit your bath, including pastel and older colours.
Can you redo an old repair?
Yes. We take out the old repair and do it properly. Tell us about it when you send photos.
What about rust by the waste?
Yes. We take out the rust and any loose enamel, seal and fill the area, then colour-match the finish.
Is the work guaranteed?
All our work carries our one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Of course, and it generally saves money. Just add the extra items to your photos and you will get one combined price.
How long before I can use the bath?
Usually within a day, though it depends on what we have done.
Can you repair something that is been repaired before?
Yes, regularly. It can add a little time, which we include in the quote.
What we can’t put right
We will not take on work that won’t last, so here’s what a repair cannot put right:
- Acrylic cracks with no access behind them
- A steel bath rusted through
- A bath worn all over, where resurfacing makes more sense
If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think.
Surfaces we repair
- Pressed steel enamel
- Whirlpool & spa baths
- Acrylic
- Roll-top & freestanding
- Cast iron enamel
What we are called out for in Duddleswell
Heavy toiletries are the biggest single cause of chips. Fittings cause damage too: water collects there, so chips nearby rust quickly.
These are the problems we are asked about most:
- Chips under the taps
- Rust spots around the plughole
- Cracks in an acrylic bath
- Chips on the rim or sides

DIY kit or professional repair?
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, 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 isn’t prepared the repair won’t last.
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it will not stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.
