Trusted bath repair in North Boarhunt

Aftercare tips

Nothing complicated is needed:

  • Don’t leave a fresh chip for long
  • Don’t leave razors or cans standing in the bath
  • Use a soft cloth and washing-up liquid for everyday cleaning
  • If an acrylic bath flexes, have its feet adjusted

Give the repair the full curing time we recommend before running a bath. From then on, mild cleaning is all it needs.

Tape over a fresh chip or crack until it’s repaired, so water cannot get in. Take it off before we arrive.

Bath repair in North Boarhunt without replacing anything

What your bath is made of matters

Cast iron

A cast iron bath is heavy enough that most people never want to move it. The enamel is the part that wears or chips, and that is the part we put right.

Acrylic

An acrylic bath is a moulded sheet strengthened from below. There is no rust, but cracks, holes and scratches happen, and cracks need support from behind to stay fixed.

North Boarhunt questions

Is a bath repair permanent?

Done properly, a repair lasts for years, and ours come with a one-year guarantee. Gentle cleaning helps it last.

Can you repair several things at once?

Yes. Doing several items on one visit generally costs less than separate visits. Include photos of each item.

What happens once I’ve sent pictures?

You get a fixed quote and available dates. If anything’s unclear, we will ask for another photo.

Will the price change on the day?

If we find something the photos didn’t show, we explain it first. You decide whether to go ahead.

Can you match an avocado or pink bath?

Yes, coloured baths are no problem. The colour is tinted by hand on the day.

Something went through my bath. Can it be fixed?

Frequently, if there’s access underneath. We back the hole, fill it and refinish the surface.

What areas do you cover?

We cover the whole UK, including North Boarhunt and the rest of Hampshire. Just include your postcode and we’ll offer you dates.

Do you work in North Boarhunt?

We do. Technicians travel to North Boarhunt from across the region, and the price is the same as everywhere else.

What we are called out for in North Boarhunt

A cracked acrylic bath normally wasn’t supported properly. Loose legs, no proper cradle or a floor that gives let the bath move until it cracks.

Look out for these signs:

  • A chipped rim or side
  • An old repair that has yellowed or come loose
  • Chips caused by builders
  • A chip where the taps sit

Comparing quotes

  • If travel is included in the price
  • How soon you can use it again
  • Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?
  • Who turns up on the day

10 questions to ask before booking

When a repair is not the answer

We’ll always be straight with you, so here’s what a repair won’t do:

  • A bath that flexes because its feet or cradle have failed (that needs fixing first)
  • Acrylic cracks with no access behind them
  • Water coming from the waste or taps rather than the bath

If in doubt, send photos and we’ll say what we think before booking.

Repair or replace in North Boarhunt?

Cast iron baths especially are worth keeping: getting one out, particularly from an upstairs bathroom, is a big job, and replacing like for like is not cheap. A repair keeps it in place. Prices start from £95. Compared with replacing, a repair is typically a fraction of the price, because there is no removal, plumbing or making good. The quote lists exactly what you are paying for.

DIY kit or professional repair?

It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is typically the cheaper route.

A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it does not stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.

What happens on the day

There is not much you need to do on the day. Let us in and show us the room, and we’ll take it from there. The job generally runs to a few hours, depending on the damage, tidy-up included.

  1. We start by cleaning the damage and taking out loose enamel and rust.
  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. Once it has cured, generally by the next day, the bath is ready to use.

How to prepare

  • Open a window if you can
  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
