Bath repair in Frogham without replacing anything
You don’t need a new bath because of a chip. We fill the damage, shape it to the curve of the bath and refinish it, with the colour mixed on site so the repair is hard to spot. We’re frequently asked to fix a failed DIY repair that’s discoloured or lifting and chips caused by builders, across pressed steel enamel, whirlpool & spa baths and acrylic.
All our work is covered by a one-year guarantee, wherever you are in Hampshire.

Repairs by material
Cast iron
Cast iron baths are so heavy that repairing in place makes obvious sense. The enamel is the part that wears or chips, and that’s what we repair.
Composite and resin
Stone resin and composite baths are heavy and solid. Chips and scratches can be filled and colour matched, in much the same way.
How the visit works
On the day itself, there is little for you to do. Show us the job, point us to the room, and we’ll get on with it. The job generally runs to a few hours.
- First, we check the damage against your pictures and agree the plan.
- Any rust and loose material comes out, and the area is degreased.
- The damage is filled in layers and shaped to the curve of the bath.
- The colour is tinted by hand until it matches.
- Finally, it’s polished to match the shine and left to cure.
Before we arrive
- Let us know about parking or access
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat

What affects the price in Frogham
Repairs from £95. There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price depends on:
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- The colour and finish to match
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- How many items we do on one visit
Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and combining items on one visit brings it down.
Quotes from your pictures
Phone pictures are fine, there is no need for anything special. Ensure they show:
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- Any details about the material
- Details of any past repairs
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale

DIY repairs versus a professional job
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, ensure the area is clean and completely dry, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.
A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it will not stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.
FAQs for Frogham
Can I get a quote without a visit?
Typically, yes. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed quote.
What happens after I send pictures?
You get a fixed price and available dates. If anything’s unclear, we’ll ask for another photo.
Can you fix rust around the plughole?
Yes, it’s one of the most common repairs we do. We take it back to sound metal, seal it, fill it and match the colour.
Do you do work for letting agents?
Yes, frequently. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.
Will there be a smell?
A little, depending on the job. Open windows and an extractor fan help, and it soon fades.
What happens if you find more damage?
We’ll show you and explain before doing anything extra. You will not be charged for anything you haven’t agreed.
How long does the repair take to cure?
Typically within a day, though it depends on what we’ve done.
Can you repair a failed DIY repair?
Regularly. We strip it out, deal with any rust and repair it again.
Looking after it afterwards
Looking after the surface is easy, and it makes a real difference:
- Give the bath a quick rinse after use
- Put a towel in the bath if you are working above it
- Get any new chip repaired before it rusts
- Stick to mild cleaners and a soft cloth
Leave the repair to cure for as long as we say before using the bath. After that, gentle cleaning keeps it looking good.
Small chips are quick to repair. Left alone, they stain and can rust, so early repair saves time and money.
What we can’t put right
A repair is not right for every job, including:
- A bath that flexes because its feet or cradle have failed (that needs fixing first)
- Cracks in acrylic we cannot reach from underneath
- A bath worn all over, where resurfacing makes more sense
Not sure? Send pictures and we will give you a straight answer.
What we work on
- Pressed steel enamel
- Roll-top & freestanding

Signs it’s time to call us include:
- A chip where the taps sit
- Chips on the rim or sides
- Holes from dropped items
- An old repair that has yellowed or come loose
