How it works
It’s a tidy, low-fuss visit. We agree the arrival time in advance, cover and mask the work area, then carry out the work, which normally takes a few hours. If we find something your pictures didn’t show, we will explain it before carrying on.
- We start by cleaning the damage and taking out loose enamel and rust.
- The chip or crack is filled, then sanded level with the bath.
- We tint the finish on the day to suit your bath’s shade of white or colour.
- We build up the finish and polish it into the surrounding enamel.
- The repair is left to cure, and most baths can be used the day after.
Preparing for the visit
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
- Ensure the area is dry
- Clear the area around the damage

Advice
How we handle bath repair in Lower Froyle
Chips, cracks, rust spots and small holes is repaired in place. There is no plumbing to disconnect, your tiles stay as they are, and the finish is matched to the rest of the bath. We’re often asked to fix a cracked acrylic bath and a hole punched through by something heavy, in whirlpool & spa baths, acrylic and pressed steel enamel.
All our work is covered by our one-year guarantee, wherever you are in Hampshire.

What your bath is made of matters
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 early repairs matter.
Acrylic
Acrylic feels warm and is light, but it relies on good support. Cracks are strengthened from behind before the front is finished.
Can I fix it myself?
It’s natural to want to try a repair 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.
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, then guarantee it for a year.
When a repair is not the answer
Before you book, it’s worth knowing the limits too:
- Leaks from the waste or overflow fittings (a plumber’s job)
- A steel bath rusted through
- Cracks in parts of an acrylic bath we cannot get to from below
Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly.

Can you repair a crack in an acrylic bath?
Typically, yes, if we can reach the underside to reinforce it. Take off the bath panel and check, or send us a photo.

Normally by the following day, depending on the repair.

Expect a mild smell while we’re working.
Do you charge for travel?
No. Our quotes include travel, and we charge the same wherever you are.

Landlord and trade work in Lower Froyle
Rental properties take more wear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.
We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out photos. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.
Aftercare tips
Aftercare is simple:
- Keep metal cans and razors off the surface
- Put a towel in the bath if you’re working above it
- Rinse it down after each bath
- Keep abrasive pads and gritty cleaners away from the bath
A repaired bath needs no special treatment, just sensible cleaning. Skip bleach and gritty creams and rinse after use.
A chip on a metal bath shouldn’t be left. Once water reaches the metal, rust begins, and a rust spot is a bigger repair than a clean chip.
Repairing versus replacing in Lower Froyle
Replacing a bath rarely stops at the bath: the tiles sitting on the rim tend to break, a new panel is frequently needed, and a plumber has to disconnect and reconnect everything. Repairing the damage avoids all of that. Prices start from £95. A repair is priced on what needs doing, not your postcode. The full price is agreed before booking, with nothing added on the day.
