Bath repair at your home in Furzebrook
A typical bath repair is a few hours’ work, and you can generally bathe again the next day. You won’t need a plumber or tiler, because the bath does not move. If you’re dealing with chips on the rim or sides and a kit repair that didn’t last, we can generally put it right, whatever the material.
You’re covered for a year from the day of the repair. Just call us if there is a problem and we will come back.

What we’re called out for in Furzebrook
Heavy toiletries are the biggest single cause of chips, closely followed by shower heads. Fittings cause damage too: water sits around them, and any chip there soon rusts.
If you can see any of these, send us a photo:
- Snagging damage from a refit
- A chipped rim or side
- Scratches you can feel with a fingernail
- Holes from dropped items
Questions to ask before you book
- How long the guarantee is and what it covers
- Aftercare advice
- Whether a trained technician does the job
- How changes to the job are handled
Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £95. Prices are worked out job by job, from your photos. The main factors are:
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- How many areas need work
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- What kind of damage it is
Our prices are the same across the UK, so there is no premium for Furzebrook. The job itself decides the price: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.
How to get a fixed quote
You can take the pictures on your phone, there is no need for anything special. Just ensure we can see:
- The material, if you know it
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
Upload a photo of the damage and one of the entire item, with your BH20 postcode, and we’ll come back with a fixed quote.

What else we do in Furzebrook
Repair or replace: which is better?
A repair makes sense whenever the damage is localised. It costs far less than a new bath plus fitting, it takes one visit, and the bathroom stays exactly as it is. Our bath repair starts from £95. The price depends on the type and amount of damage, what it’s made of and how many items we do on one visit. We give a fixed price from your pictures, so there are no surprises on the day.

When a repair is not the answer
We will always be straight with you, so here’s what a repair won’t do:
- Flexing caused by a failed cradle or loose feet
- A bath worn all over, where resurfacing makes more sense
- Rust that has eaten right through a steel bath
Send us pictures and we will tell you honestly before booking.

What your bath is made of matters
Acrylic
Acrylic feels warm and is light, but it relies on good support. Repairs to cracks are reinforced from the back.
Composite and resin
Composite baths are dense and solid, and frequently freestanding. Chips and scratches are filled and matched, in much the same way.
How to care for the repair
Aftercare is simple, and it makes a real difference:
- Check that an acrylic bath does not move when you stand in it
- Clean with warm water and a mild detergent
- Keep metal cans and razors off the surface
- Protect the bath with a towel when doing jobs nearby
There is nothing special to do after a repair, beyond gentle cleaning. Avoid bleach-based and gritty cleaners.
Tape over a fresh chip or crack until it’s repaired, so water cannot get in. Remove it before the repair.
Your questions about bath repair in Furzebrook
What happens if you find more damage?
It’s rare, but if it happens we talk to you first. You decide whether to go ahead.
Will I be able to see the repair?
On a glossy bath, you’ll struggle to find it. On worn enamel, it can look shinier than the rest.
Do you work in Furzebrook?
We do. We send a technician to Furzebrook for every job, and the price is the same as everywhere else.
Will there be a smell?
It depends on the job, but often a little. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum, and it soon fades.
What happens next?
You get a fixed price and available dates. If we need another angle, we will ask.
Will it make a mess?
We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and we clean up when we have finished.
Are there extra charges for Furzebrook?
No. Our quotes include travel, and we charge the same wherever you are.
Do you cover the entire of Dorset?
We work UK-wide, so Furzebrook is covered. Our prices are the same everywhere.

Can I fix it myself?
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully and work on a clean, dry surface, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.
A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. 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 photos.
What we do, step by step
We agree an arrival time beforehand, so you know when to expect us. On site, it takes a few hours, depending on the damage. The room is left tidy and ready to use once it has cured.
- Dust sheets and masking go down around the bath.
- The damaged area is cleaned, keyed and degreased.
- We fill it, let it set, then sand it flush.
- Colour and gloss are matched to the surrounding surface.
- We tidy up and tell you when the bath can be used, usually the day after.
Preparing for the visit
- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
- Tell us about parking, stairs or access
