About our bath repair in Fawley
Bath repair is our most common job. A chip by the taps, a crack in the base and a rust spot by the plughole are all fixed without removing the bath, normally in one visit. Our technicians work on acrylic, whirlpool & spa baths and roll-top & freestanding, and the jobs we see most are hairline or through cracks in acrylic and chips along the edge of the bath.
A one-year guarantee comes as standard, so you’re not left on your own once we have gone.

DIY kit or professional repair?
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. 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.
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, and the work is guaranteed.
Looking after it afterwards
After the repair has cured, a few habits help it last:
- Store metal items away from the bath
- If an acrylic bath flexes, have its feet adjusted
- Get a dripping tap fixed promptly
- Put a towel in the bath if you are working above it
Treat the repaired area like the rest of the bath: warm water, washing-up liquid and a soft cloth. Avoid scourers and gritty cream cleaners.
Stop using the bath if a crack lets water through. Water under the bath can damage the floor and the ceiling below.
What a repair cannot fix
Some jobs are not right for a repair, including:
- Leaks from the waste or overflow fittings (a plumber’s job)
- A bath that flexes because its feet or cradle have failed (that needs fixing first)
- A steel bath rusted through
If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think before you book.

Do you need bath repair in Fawley?
Rust tends to begin where water collects, by the plughole, beneath dripping taps or in an unrepaired chip. Once water reaches the steel or iron, rust spreads under the enamel.
Typical reasons for a call-out include:
- Cracks in an acrylic bath
- A chipped rim or side
- Snagging damage from a refit
- Scratches you can feel with a fingernail
Questions to ask before booking
- How the room is protected while they work
- What prep work is covered
- Whether the price covers travel
- Aftercare advice
What your bath is made of matters
Acrylic
Acrylic is light and warm to the touch, but it needs firm support underneath. Repairs to cracks are reinforced from the back.
Cast iron
Cast iron baths are thick and very strong, finished with fired enamel. Chips can rust if left, but the bath itself lasts for generations, which makes it well worth repairing.
What happens on the day
From the moment we arrive, we keep the work contained to the one room. Surfaces nearby are masked off, the work takes a few hours, depending on the damage, depending on what we find, and we finish by cleaning up and talking you through the result.
- 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.
- The repair is polished to the same gloss as the bath and left to cure.
Preparing for the visit
- Keep a parking space free if you can
- Make sure the area is dry
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
