Bath repair in Middle Wallop, done in place

We have repaired just about every kind of bath damage: chips from dropped bottles, rust round the plughole, cracks in acrylic and holes from falling tools. All of it is repaired where the bath stands with a one-year guarantee. We work on whirlpool & spa baths, acrylic and pressed steel enamel, and the jobs we see most are a hole punched through by something heavy and chips along the edge of the bath.

You are covered after we leave: each job carries a one-year guarantee, and we will explain exactly what it covers when we quote.

Different materials, different repairs

Pressed steel

Steel baths are lighter than cast iron, but have a similar enamel surface. Exposed steel rusts fast, especially around the waste, so repair chips early.

Acrylic

Acrylic feels warm and is light, but it needs firm support underneath. Repairs to cracks are reinforced from the back.

When a repair isn’t the answer

Not everything can be repaired, and we’d rather say so up front. Repairs won’t solve:

  • A bath worn all over, where resurfacing makes more sense
  • Metal that has corroded all the way through
  • Water coming from the waste or taps rather than the bath

Not sure? Send pictures and we will give you a straight answer before you book.

What we work on

  • Pressed steel enamel
  • Whirlpool & spa baths
  • Acrylic
  • Roll-top & freestanding
  • Cast iron enamel

Common problems we fix in Middle Wallop

Acrylic baths that crack nearly always have a support problem. Legs that are not adjusted, a missing cradle or a soft floor let the bath move until it cracks.

Signs it’s time to call us include:

  • An old repair that has yellowed or come loose
  • Scratches you can feel with a fingernail
  • A chipped rim or side
  • Damage beneath the taps

Questions to ask before booking

  • How long it needs to cure
  • Whether the price covers travel
  • Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT
  • Aftercare advice

10 questions to ask before you book

Middle Wallop: your questions answered

Can landlords book you?

Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as homeowners in Middle Wallop.

Is it safe with children and pets around?

We ask you to keep children and pets out of the room while we work and until it has cured. The rest of the house is unaffected.

Will you leave a mess?

We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and we clean up when we’ve finished.

Is a holed acrylic bath repairable?

In most cases. Photos of the hole and the underside help us check.

It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?

Normally, yes. We remove the old repair before doing a new one.

Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?

Generally, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. We will be honest if it’s not worth it.

Are you accredited?

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

Do the materials smell?

It depends on the job, but frequently a little. Open windows and an extractor fan help, and it soon fades.

Repairing versus replacing in Middle Wallop

If the rest of the bath is in good condition, a repair is almost always the better choice. It’s quicker, cheaper and far less disruptive, and the bathroom stays as it is. Where the whole surface is tired, we may suggest re-enamelling instead. Prices start from £95. A few things move the price: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

Why us?

  • A year’s guarantee on all work
  • Fixed prices from your pictures
  • We come to you, anywhere in the UK
  • Colours mixed by hand to suit your surface

What happens on the day

We turn up at the time we agreed with you, introduces themselves and checks the damage against your pictures first. The floor and nearby surfaces are covered before we open a single tin. The work itself takes two to three hours for most chips, and the room is left clean and tidy.

  1. First, the area is cleaned and any loose enamel or rust is removed.
  2. The chip or crack is filled, then sanded level with the bath.
  3. We tint the finish on the day to suit your bath’s shade of white or colour.
  4. Finish coats go on, then the repair is polished to blend in.
  5. We leave it to cure; you can typically use the bath the next day.

Before we arrive

  • Point us to the nearest place to park
  • Have a window or extractor fan available
  • Let the surface dry out before the visit

Getting a price

Pricing is simple: take a close-up of the damage and a picture from further back, send them over with your postcode, and you will get a fixed price back. There’s no charge for the quote and you are under no obligation.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely and work on a clean, dry surface, and give it the full curing time. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.

What affects the price in Middle Wallop

Repairs from £95. A fixed quote means you know the cost before you book. We take into account:

We do not add extras on the day. The price we quote from your pictures is the price you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.

Aftercare tips

So the finish stays in good condition for years:

  • Check that an acrylic bath does not move when you stand in it
  • Cover the bath during DIY or decorating
  • Rinse the bath after use, especially in hard water areas
  • Store metal items away from the bath

Keep metal objects like razors and cans off the surface, as they can leave rust marks. And fix dripping taps promptly.

Stop using the bath if a crack lets water through until it’s repaired. Leaks under a bath can damage floors and ceilings.
