Bath repair near Hoburne Park

Bath repair in Hoburne Park without replacing anything

We repair enamelled steel, cast iron and acrylic baths. The method changes with the material: rust is treated on metal baths, while cracks in acrylic are reinforced from underneath. We are frequently asked to fix damage beneath the taps and a failed DIY repair that’s discoloured or lifting, on whirlpool & spa baths, acrylic and cast iron enamel.

Every repair is covered by our one-year guarantee.

Repairs by material

Cast iron

Cast iron baths are thick and very strong, with a fused enamel surface. Chips can rust if left, but the body of the bath lasts a very long time, which makes it well worth repairing.

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.

Questions from Hoburne Park

How do I book?

Use the quote form or ring 0345 017 0787.

Do you hold any accreditations?

Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.

Do you cover the entire of Dorset?

Everywhere in the UK, Hoburne Park included. Travel is included in the price.

Can you redo an old repair?

Regularly. We strip it out, deal with any rust and repair it again.

Is it messy?

Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we leave the room clean.

Does someone need to be in?

We need someone to let us in. After that, you can carry on with your day.

Can you do more than one item on the same visit?

Of course, and it normally saves money. Send pictures of everything together and you will get one combined price.

Do you work for landlords and businesses?

Yes, often. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.

Prices and what affects them

Prices start from £95. Each job gets its own fixed price. These are the things that affect it:

  • The material and finish
  • Access to the area
  • What kind of damage it is
  • Whether we combine several jobs

Instead of hourly rates, we price the whole job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and doing several items at once reduces it.

How to get a fixed quote

You can typically get a fixed price without us visiting. To help us price it:

  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • A wider photo showing the whole bath
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus

Send us pictures of the damage and one of the whole item, and tell us you’re in Hoburne Park, and we will come back with a fixed quote.

What we do, step by step

A typical visit goes like this: we arrive at the agreed slot, sheet and mask the area around the job, carry out the work and tidy away. Allow a morning or an afternoon from start to finish. Before we go, we’ll explain when it can be used and how to care for it.

  1. We start by looking at the damage and confirming the plan with you.
  2. Any rust and loose material comes out, and the area is degreased.
  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.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible

Related advice

When to call us in Hoburne Park

The usual cause is something heavy dropped into the bath, and a lot happen during bathroom refits. Cracks in acrylic have a different cause: poor support underneath, so the bath flexes when it’s full.

If you can see any of these, send us a photo:

  • An old repair that has yellowed or come loose
  • Snagging damage from a refit
  • A chip where the taps sit
  • Hairline or through cracks in acrylic

Our hiring checklist

Repair or replace in Hoburne Park?

A new bath brings a chain of other jobs: the tiles sitting on the rim tend to break, the panel may not fit the new one, and the plumbing has to be disconnected and refitted. Repairing the damage avoids all of that. Prices start from £95. A repair usually costs much less than people expect, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

Why Hoburne Park clients choose us

  • Dust sheets down, tidy finish
  • Colour mixed on the day to match
  • CHAS and Constructionline accredited
  • Honest advice, even when it means no job

DIY kit or professional repair?

A DIY attempt isn’t 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.

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully and work on a clean, dry surface, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.

Aftercare tips

How the surface is treated afterwards matters. Here’s what we suggest:

  • Keep abrasive pads and gritty cleaners away from the bath
  • Have new chips seen to early
  • Fix dripping taps early to stop staining and limescale
  • Stick to mild cleaners and a soft cloth

Leave the repair to cure for as long as we say before using the bath. From then on, mild cleaning is all it needs.

Tape over a fresh chip or crack until it’s repaired, to keep water out. Remove it before the repair.

Work for landlords and builders

Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which matters when someone is living in the home.

Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets need rooms back in use quickly, so we keep visits short and tidy. We will fit around changeovers where we can.
