How we handle bath repair in North Bockhampton
Most of our bath repairs take a few hours, and the bath is back in use the following day. There’s no need to book a plumber or tiler, because nothing is disconnected. We work on whirlpool & spa baths, cast iron enamel and roll-top & freestanding, and the jobs we see most are a hole punched through by something heavy and a kit repair that didn’t last.
Whatever the size of the job, it’s backed by a one-year guarantee in North Bockhampton and across Dorset.

What your bath is made of matters
Cast iron
Cast iron baths are so heavy that repairing in place makes obvious sense. The enamel is the part that wears or chips, and that’s the part we put right.
Acrylic
Acrylic is light and warm to the touch, but it relies on good support. Repairs to cracks are reinforced from the back.

What a repair can’t fix
Before you book, it’s worth knowing the limits:
- Metal that has corroded all the way through
- Cracks in parts of an acrylic bath we can’t get to from below
- Leaks from the waste or overflow fittings (a plumber’s job)
Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly before you book.

Can I fix it myself?
For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. 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.
Why repair rather than replace?
Replacing a fitted bath normally involves a plumber, lifting out the old bath, re-tiling and a new panel and disposing of the old one. Repairing it deals only with the damage in a single visit. Our bath repair starts from £95. Compared with replacing, repairing typically costs far less, because there’s no removal, plumbing or making good. The quote lists exactly what you are paying for.
Why book with us
- Rooms protected and left tidy
- Everything repaired in place
- Work done at your home or business
- Colours mixed by hand to suit your surface

Questions from North Bockhampton
Is my repair covered?
All our work carries our one-year guarantee. We will explain what it covers when we quote.
Can you quote from pictures?
In nearly every case. If photos do not show enough, we will ask for another angle.
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
Yes, though it’s best to check with your landlord first. Many landlords are happy for a repair to be arranged.
Can you repair a failed DIY repair?
Regularly. We strip it out, deal with any rust and repair it again.
What happens if you find more damage?
We will show you and explain before doing anything extra. Nothing extra is done without your say-so.
How much does bath repair cost in North Bockhampton?
Repairs from £95. We give a fixed price based on pictures of the damage. Send a close-up and a picture of the whole item with your BH23 postcode.
Can you match an avocado or pink bath?
Yes, coloured baths are no problem. We tint the finish to your bath on site.
Can a cracked acrylic bath be fixed?
Frequently, yes, if we can reach the underside to reinforce it. Check under the bath panel, or send us a picture.
Keeping it looking good
It’s all simple stuff, just a few sensible habits:
- Avoid scourers, wire wool and gritty cream cleaners
- Keep metal cans and razors off the surface
- Give the bath a quick rinse after use
- Protect the bath with a towel when doing jobs nearby
Keep metal objects like razors and cans off the surface, as they can leave rust marks. A dripping tap should be fixed early, too.
If water is getting through a crack, stop using the bath. Water under the bath can damage the floor and the ceiling below.

How we price bath repair
Repairs from £95. You will know the full cost before you book. We look at:
- The material
- How much damage there is
- What kind of damage it is
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
What it costs depends on the type and amount of damage, the material and how many jobs we combine into one visit. You get a fixed price from your pictures, so you know the cost before booking.
Quotes from your photos
Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what we need:
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- The material, if you know it
- Where you are, by postcode
- Details of any past repairs
We price from photos so you do not have to wait in for a survey. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through, and we will come back with a fixed figure.
What we do, step by step
A typical visit goes like this: we arrive at the agreed slot, sheet and mask the area around the job, do the job and clear up. Allow a few hours, depending on the damage from start to finish. Before leaving, we tell you when it can be used and how to care for it.
- Dust sheets and masking go down around the bath.
- We clean, key and degrease the damage, and any rust is treated.
- We fill it, let it set, then sand it flush.
- Colour and gloss are matched to the surrounding surface.
- We clear up and give you the curing time, normally until the day after.
Getting ready for the visit
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
- Let us know if it has been repaired before
How to get a price
Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us photos through the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the entire bath, we can price the job without visiting.

When to call us in North Bockhampton
Nearly all the chips we see start with something being dropped: a shampoo bottle, a shower head, a tile or a tool during a refit. On steel and cast iron baths, any chip down to the metal lets water in, and rust follows.
If you can see any of these, send us a photo:
- A chip where the taps sit
- A failed DIY repair that is discoloured or lifting
- Rusty patches near the plughole
- Snagging damage from a refit
