Trusted bath repair in Owslebury

Prices and what affects them

Repairs from £95. We give every job a fixed quote from photos. This is what makes a difference:

  • How many items we do on one visit
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • The colour and finish to match
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first

Rather than charging by the hour, we price the entire job up front. Damage, material and access decide it.

How to get a fixed quote

Good pictures mean an accurate price. Here’s what we find most useful:

  • A picture taken from further back
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • Details of any past repairs
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare

Send us pictures of the damage and a wider shot of the whole item, with your SO21 postcode, and we will come back with a fixed quote.

Bath repair in Owslebury, done in place

We repair just the damaged spot and colour-match it to the bath, which is far cheaper than replacing a fitted bath and the tiles around it. Most baths can be used again the day after. We are frequently asked to fix damage beneath the taps and deep scratches in acrylic, across pressed steel enamel, acrylic and roll-top & freestanding.

Every repair comes with our one-year guarantee, wherever you are in Hampshire.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is generally the cheaper route.

The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.

Repairs by material

Acrylic

Acrylic is light and warm to the touch, but it needs firm support underneath. Cracks are strengthened from behind before the front is finished.

Composite and resin

Composite baths are dense and solid, and frequently freestanding. Chips and scratches can be filled and colour-matched, in much the same way.

What we do, step by step

Expect a friendly, tidy visit. We confirm the time with you beforehand, cover and mask the work area, and get on with the job, which generally takes two to three hours for most chips. If we find something your pictures didn’t show, we’ll explain it before carrying on.

  1. We start by looking at the damage and confirming the plan with you.
  2. Any rust and loose material comes out, and the area is degreased.
  3. The damage is filled in layers and shaped to the curve of the bath.
  4. We tint the finish by hand to match the bath.
  5. The repair is polished to the same gloss as the bath and left to cure.

Before we arrive

  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
  • Make sure the area is dry
  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area

Repair or replace: which is better?

Many people think a damaged bath means a new one. In most cases it doesn’t: a repair keeps the bath in service for years, and costs far less than the disruption of a replacement. Prices start from £95. We do not add extras on the day. The price we quote from your pictures is the price you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.

When we would advise against a repair

A repair isn’t right for every job, including:

Common problems we fix in Owslebury

Rust normally starts where water sits, by the plughole, beneath dripping taps or in an unrepaired chip. Once water reaches the steel or iron, rust spreads under the enamel.
