Bath chip & crack repair in Middleton, Hampshire
Bath repair across Middleton and nearby, done in a single visit in most cases.
- Repairs from £95
- A chipped rim or side
- A failed DIY repair that’s discoloured or lifting
For landlords and businesses
Rented homes see more wear and tear, 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.
Hospitality businesses cannot afford rooms out of action for long, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We will fit around changeovers where we can.
Bath repair at your home in Middleton
Whether your bath is steel, cast iron or acrylic, we can repair it. The method changes with the material: metal baths need any rust dealt with first, and acrylic cracks need support from behind. Typical jobs include a failed DIY repair that’s discoloured or lifting and cracks in an acrylic bath, in roll-top & freestanding, cast iron enamel and acrylic.
All our work is covered by a one-year guarantee, wherever you are in Hampshire.

Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £95. Prices are worked out job by job. The main factors are:
- How easy the damage is to reach
- Unusual colours or finishes
- How many areas need work
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Photos let us give you the exact figure.
Getting a price from photos
We price nearly every job from photos. This is what to send:
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- A picture taken from further back
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
You don’t need a survey visit. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we will come back to you with a fixed figure.
Your questions about bath repair in Middleton
Is it messy?
Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and tidy up before we leave.
What happens next?
You get a fixed quote and available dates. If anything’s unclear, we will ask for another photo.
Do you cover Middleton?
Yes. We work across the UK and travel to Middleton. Send us pictures for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
Will I be able to see the repair?
On a bath in good condition, a colour matched repair is very hard to spot. On worn enamel, it can look shinier than the rest.
Is it safe with children and pets around?
On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children, so the repair is not disturbed while it cures.
Can you repair something that is been repaired before?
Generally, yes. We remove the old repair before doing a new one, so mention it when you send pictures.
How much does bath repair cost in Middleton?
Prices start from £95. The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from pictures. You know the full cost before anything is booked.
What happens if you find more damage?
If we find something the photos didn’t show, we explain it first. The price only changes if you agree.
Can I fix it myself?
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair will not last.
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, then guarantee it for a year.
How it works
Once we’re through the door, the aim is to do the job without disturbing the rest of your home. We mask off everything nearby, the job takes a morning or an afternoon, and we finish by cleaning up and talking you through the result.
- 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 mix the colour on the day to match your bath’s exact shade.
- We apply the finish coats and polish the repair so it blends in.
- The repair is left to cure, and most baths can be used the day after.
Before we arrive
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
- Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
Getting a price
The quickest way to a price is to send a couple of pictures through our quote form or call us. We will say right away whether it can be repaired.

Repairing versus replacing in Middleton
Replacing a fitted bath normally involves a plumber, removing the old bath, re-tiling and a new panel and disposing of the old one. Repairing it fixes just the damaged area in one visit. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. The price reflects the work involved, not your postcode. The full price is agreed before you book.

Honest limits
A few problems are outside what a surface repair can do:
- A bath worn all over, where resurfacing makes more sense
- Cracks in parts of an acrylic bath we cannot get to from below
- A bath that flexes because its feet or cradle have failed (that needs fixing first)
If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think.
Surfaces we repair
- Roll-top & freestanding
- Cast iron enamel
- Acrylic
- Whirlpool & spa baths
- Pressed steel enamel
Materials and what they mean for the repair
Composite and resin
Composite baths are dense and solid. Chips and scratches are filled and matched, just like other baths.
Acrylic
Acrylic is light and warm to the touch, but it relies on good support. Repairs to cracks are reinforced from the back.
Keeping it looking good
So the finish stays in good condition for years:
- Give the bath a quick rinse after use
- Keep metal cans and razors off the surface
- If an acrylic bath flexes, have its feet adjusted
- Cover the bath during DIY or decorating
Treat the repaired area like the rest of the bath: warm water, washing-up liquid and a soft cloth. Avoid scourers and gritty cream cleaners.
Until we visit, a strip of waterproof tape over the damage helps, to keep water out. Take it off before we arrive.
