Bath repair in Hardington Mandeville, done in place

Small damage on a bath is worth repairing early. On steel and cast iron, exposed metal starts to rust, while cracks in acrylic grow each time the bath moves. Repairing it stops the damage getting worse. Our repair technicians work on pressed steel enamel, roll-top & freestanding and whirlpool & spa baths, and people most frequently call us about chips on the rim or sides and impact holes in acrylic.

A one-year guarantee comes as standard, so you’re covered after the visit.

How it works

Your technician turns up at the time we agreed with you and checks the damage against your pictures first. Dust sheets and masking tape go down before any work starts. Most visits take two to three hours for most chips, and we leave the room as we found it.

  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. We build up the filler in layers, shaping it to 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.

Preparing for the visit

  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
  • Let us know if it has been repaired before
  • Let the surface dry out before the visit

Related advice

Hardington Mandeville: your questions answered

Can a cracked acrylic bath be fixed?

In most cases. We reinforce the crack from behind, then fill and refinish the front, so access behind the panel is important.

How do I get a price for bath repair in Hardington Mandeville?

Prices start from £95. The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from photos. You know the full cost before anything is booked.

Is it safe with children and pets around?

Please keep children and pets out of the room during the visit and until it has cured. Everywhere else in the home is fine.

Do you work in Hardington Mandeville?

Yes. We cover the entire UK and travel to Hardington Mandeville. Send pictures and we’ll quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

How invisible is a bath repair?

We aim for a repair you can’t easily find. How well it disappears depends on the condition of the rest of the bath.

How long before I can use the bath?

Normally the following day. We will tell you the exact curing time when we finish.

Can you repair a failed DIY repair?

Yes. We take out the old repair and do it properly. Tell us about it when you send pictures.

I’m a tenant. Can you help?

We’re happy to deal with the tenant, landlord or agent. Get your landlord’s agreement first.

What bath repair costs

Prices start from £95. Every quote is fixed and free. What we look at:

  • Access to the area
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • What the surface is made of
  • How much damage there is

The price depends on how much damage there is and what kind, the material 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.

How to get a fixed price

You can take the photos on your phone, there is no need for anything special. Just make sure we can see:

  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • Something in shot to show the size

Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us pictures through the quote form. With one close-up and one wider picture, we can give you a fixed price without visiting.

DIY kit or professional repair?

We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.

A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it won’t stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.

How to look after the repair

Good habits make a big difference to how long a repair lasts:

  • Have new chips seen to early
  • Keep metal cans and razors off the surface
  • Make sure an acrylic bath is firm underfoot
  • A dripping tap stains enamel, so fix it early

Give the repair the full curing time we recommend before running a bath. After that, gentle cleaning keeps it looking good.

If an acrylic bath has a crack, stop showering in it until it’s repaired. Each time it flexes, the crack grows, and water can get through to the floor below.

Honest limits

We would rather lose a job than do one that won’t last, so here’s what a repair cannot put right:

  • Wear across the whole surface, which needs re-enamelling
  • Leaks from the waste or overflow fittings (a plumber’s job)
  • A steel bath rusted through

Not sure? Send photos and we will give you a straight answer.

Materials we work on in Hardington Mandeville

Repairs by material

Composite and resin

Composite baths are dense and solid. Chips and scratches can be filled and colour-matched, just like other baths.

Acrylic

Acrylic is light and warm to the touch, but it needs firm support underneath. Cracks are strengthened from behind before the front is finished.
