Bath repair at your home in Nether Wallop
It pays to repair bath damage while it’s small. On steel and cast iron, exposed metal starts to rust, while cracks in acrylic grow each time the bath moves. A repair stops both. Our technicians work on whirlpool & spa baths, acrylic and roll-top & freestanding, and the jobs we see most are damage beneath the taps and deep scratches in acrylic.
You are covered for a year from the day of the repair. If anything is not right, ring us and we’ll come back.

Should you replace it?
Think about the hidden costs of a new bath: removal and disposal, plumbing, a new panel, tiling and decorating. With a repair, it’s one visit and one price. Prices start from £95. No two jobs are quite the same, so we price each one individually. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all play a part, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

- Loose enamel, rust and dirt are removed so the repair can bond.
- The damage is filled in layers and shaped to the curve of the bath.
- We tint the finish by hand to match the bath.
- The repair is polished to the same gloss as the bath and left to cure.

Common problems we fix in Nether Wallop
Nearly all the chips we see start with something being dropped: bottles, shower heads, tiles and tools. On enamelled baths, any chip down to the metal will start to rust.
Signs it’s time to call us include:
- Chips on the rim or sides
- Hairline or through cracks in acrylic
- A kit repair that didn’t last
- Deep scratches in acrylic

- Whether there are any call-out or travel charges

Can I fix it myself?
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, make sure the area is clean and completely dry, and give it the full curing time. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. 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.
Different materials, different repairs
Pressed steel
Steel baths and trays have a thin metal body under the enamel. Exposed steel rusts quickly, so the metal is treated and sealed before the repair.
Composite and resin
Stone resin and composite baths are heavy and solid. Chips and scratches are filled and matched, in much the same way.
How we price bath repair
Prices start from £95. We do not charge extra for travel to Nether Wallop. The price comes down to:
- How many areas need work
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- The material
- What kind of damage it is
Compared with replacing, repairing usually costs far less, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.
How to get a fixed quote
You can typically get a fixed quote without us visiting. To make it quick:
- A wider photo showing the whole bath
- Any details about the material
- Natural light rather than flash
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
There’s no need for us to visit first. Nearly every job can be priced from pictures: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we will come back to you with a fixed figure.
Keeping it looking good
Nothing complicated is needed, just a few sensible habits:
- Make sure an acrylic bath is firm underfoot
- Keep abrasive pads and gritty cleaners away from the bath
- Put a towel in the bath if you’re working above it
- Store metal items away from the bath
For the first few days, keep heavy bottles off the repaired spot. After that, clean it as you would the rest of the bath without abrasive products.
If water is getting through a crack, stop using the bath. Leaks under a bath can damage floors and ceilings.
