Bath repair in Elvetham Heath

Bath repair in Elvetham Heath, done in place

Most bath damage, from chips and cracks to rust spots and holes, can be repaired with the bath left exactly where it is. There’s no plumbing to disconnect, the tiles aren’t touched, and the finish is matched to the rest of the bath. We regularly repair whirlpool & spa baths, cast iron enamel and pressed steel enamel, and common reasons people get in touch are rust spots around the plughole and a hole punched through by something heavy.

Big or small, it’s backed by a one-year guarantee in Elvetham Heath and across Hampshire.

How we price bath repair

Prices start from £95. Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we look at:

  • The material
  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • What kind of damage it is
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first

Compared with replacing, a repair is typically a fraction of the price, because there’s no removal, plumbing or making good. The quote lists exactly what you’re paying for.

Send photos for a quote

Phone pictures are fine. Just ensure we can see:

  • The material, if you know it
  • Details of any past repairs
  • A picture taken from further back
  • Something in shot to show the size

Send us a photo of the damage and a wider shot of the entire item, and tell us you are in Elvetham Heath, and we will reply with a fixed price.

Repair or replace: which is better?

Replacing a fitted bath usually means a plumber, lifting out the old bath, re-tiling and a new panel and disposing of the old one. A repair fixes just the damaged area in a single visit. Our bath repair starts from £95. We do not add extras on the day. What we quote from your photos is what you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.

Why book with us

  • We will tell you if it’s not worth repairing
  • Fixed prices from your pictures
  • CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited
  • Every repair guaranteed for a year

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, 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 then the old filler has to be removed first.

What your bath is made of matters

Composite and resin

Stone resin and composite baths are heavy and solid. Chips and scratches are filled and matched, in much the same way.

Pressed steel

Pressed steel is thinner and lighter, with an enamel finish like cast iron. Chips rust quickly on steel, especially around the waste, so repair chips early.

When we’d advise against a repair

Some jobs aren’t right for a repair, for example:

  • Leaks from the waste or overflow fittings (a plumber’s job)
  • Metal that has corroded all the way through
  • Acrylic cracks with no access behind them

Send us pictures and we will tell you honestly.

What we work on

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

Common questions in Elvetham Heath

Are you a vetted contractor?

We are accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.

Is there a call-out fee?

We do not add a call-out fee. Your fixed quote includes everything.

How long before I can use the bath?

Most baths can be used the day after. We’ll tell you the exact curing time when we finish.

Is a holed acrylic bath repairable?

Usually. Photos of the hole and the underside help us check.

Will there be a smell?

There can be some smell while we work, which is why we ventilate. It clears as the materials cure.

Do I need to be at home?

Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. You do not need to watch us work.

Can you repair a failed DIY repair?

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

Is a bath repair durable?

A properly prepared repair should last a long time, and it’s guaranteed for a year. Gentle cleaning helps it last.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Elvetham Heath

Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Elvetham Heath use us as well as householders. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it costs much less than replacing.

We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Just send pictures, the address and how to get access.

What we do, step by step

You don’t need to empty the room. Everything we use comes in the van with us, lay protective sheets and get going once we’ve agreed what we’re doing. Most jobs take two to three hours for most chips, and you are welcome to carry on with your day while we work.

  1. First, we check the damage against your photos and agree the plan.
  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. The colour is tinted by hand until it matches.
  5. The repair is polished to the same gloss as the bath and left to cure.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access
  • Clear the area around the damage

How to look after the repair

Much of the damage we repair could have been avoided. These habits help:

  • Don’t leave razors or cans standing in the bath
  • Get a dripping tap fixed promptly
  • Protect the bath with a towel when doing jobs nearby
  • Don’t leave a fresh chip for long

In the first few days, avoid putting weight or bottles on the repair. After that, clean it as you would the rest of the bath.

Stop using the bath if a crack lets water through. Water under the bath can damage the floor and the ceiling below.
