Bath repair near Nob's Crook

Can I fix it myself?

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.

If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.

How we handle bath repair in Nob's Crook

A typical bath repair is a few hours’ work, and the bath is back in use the following day. You won’t need a plumber or tiler, because the bath doesn’t move. We work on acrylic, pressed steel enamel and cast iron enamel, and people most often call us about a failed DIY repair that’s discoloured or lifting and hairline or through cracks in acrylic.

Big or small, you get the same one-year guarantee in Nob's Crook and across Hampshire.

Different materials, different repairs

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.

Cast iron

Cast iron baths are thick and very strong, finished with fired enamel. Chips can rust if left, but the bath itself lasts for generations, which makes it well worth repairing.

How to care for the repair

Aftercare is simple, and it makes a real difference:

  • Get a dripping tap fixed promptly
  • Give the bath a quick rinse after use
  • Don’t leave razors or cans standing in the bath
  • Protect the bath with a towel when doing jobs nearby

Care for the repair the same way as the bath: warm water, washing-up liquid and a soft cloth. Avoid scourers and gritty cream cleaners.

Small chips are quick to repair. Leave them and they collect dirt, stain and, on metal baths, rust, so early repair saves time and money.

How we price bath repair

Repairs from £95. You will know the full cost before booking. We take into account:

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

Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. Damage, material and access decide it, and combining items on one visit brings it down.

Getting a price from pictures

Before you send photos, a few simple things make all the difference:

  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • One picture of the entire bath
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus

No survey visit is needed: we price from photos. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through, and you’ll get a fixed figure back.

How the visit works

Here’s how a visit usually runs: we arrive on time, sheet and mask the area around the job, do the job and tidy away. Allow a few hours. Before we go, we will explain how long to leave it and what to avoid for the first few days.

  1. We protect the bath and the floor around it.
  2. The damaged area is cleaned, keyed and degreased.
  3. We fill it, let it set, then sand it flush.
  4. We match both the colour and the shine.
  5. We clear up and give you the curing time, normally until the day after.

How to prepare

  • Open a window if you can
  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
  • Let us know which floor the room is on

Advice

For landlords and businesses

Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets cannot afford rooms out of action for long, so we keep visits short and tidy. We will fit around changeovers where we can.

Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, fixing chips and scratches before handover so nothing needs replacing. We are CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.

What we cannot put right

A few problems are outside what a surface repair can do:

  • Leaking fittings, which need a plumber
  • Cracks in acrylic we can’t reach from underneath
  • Rust that has eaten right through a steel bath

If in doubt, send pictures and we will say what we think before you book.

Materials we repair

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