Trusted bath repair in Pig Oak

DIY kit or professional repair?

It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is typically cheaper.

For a hairline mark somewhere you will never see, a kit may be enough. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, a professional repair is worth it.

Bath repair in Pig Oak without replacing anything

A typical bath repair is a few hours’ work, and you can typically bathe again the day after. There’s no need to book a plumber or tiler, because the bath doesn’t move. Whether it’s impact holes in acrylic and deep scratches in acrylic, we can normally put it right, on roll-top & freestanding, acrylic and pressed steel enamel alike.

We guarantee the work for a year. If there’s a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it.

For landlords and businesses

We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which is easier on the people living there.

We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Just send pictures, the address and how to get access.

The process

We work cleanly and quietly, so you can carry on at home. We protect the area first, then the job itself takes two to three hours for most chips. Before we leave, we explain the curing time and the aftercare.

  1. First, we check the damage against your photos and agree the plan.
  2. Any rust and loose material comes out, and the area is degreased.
  3. We build up the filler in layers, shaping it to the bath.
  4. We tint the finish by hand to match the bath.
  5. Finally, it’s polished to match the shine and left to cure.

How to prepare

  • Clear the area around the damage
  • Point us to the nearest place to park
  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children

When we’d advise against a repair

Before you book, it’s worth knowing the limits:

  • Acrylic cracks with no access behind them
  • A whole bath that is dull or worn, where a full re-enamel is the better fix
  • Leaks from the waste or overflow fittings (a plumber’s job)

Not sure? Send pictures and we will give you a straight answer before booking.

Materials we repair

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

Different materials, different repairs

Composite and resin

Stone resin and composite baths are heavy and solid, and frequently freestanding. Chips and scratches are filled and matched, just like other baths.

Pressed steel

Pressed steel is thinner and lighter, with an enamel finish like cast iron. Chips rust quickly on steel, particularly by the plughole, so repair chips early.

What we’re called out for in Pig Oak

Most bath damage comes from something dropped: a shampoo bottle, a shower head, a tile or a tool during a refit. On enamelled baths, any chip down to the metal will start to rust.

You may need us if you’ve spotted:

  • Scuffs and scratches in the surface
  • Impact holes in acrylic
  • Cracks in an acrylic bath
  • Chips caused by builders

Our hiring checklist

How we price bath repair

Prices start from £95. We don’t charge extra for travel to Pig Oak. The price comes down to:

  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • How hard the colour is to match

Our prices are the same across the UK, so there’s no premium for Pig Oak. What changes the price is the job itself: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

How to get a fixed price

It only takes a minute to photograph the damage, and it saves a visit. Try to send:

  • Natural light rather than flash
  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • Details of any past repairs
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale

If you’re in Pig Oak and want a price, the easiest route is photos: one close up, one from further back, plus your postcode. You will get a fixed quote with dates to choose from.

Your questions about bath repair in Pig Oak

Do you repair coloured baths?

Yes, we match coloured baths too. We tint the finish to your bath on site.

What areas do you cover?

All of Dorset, and the rest of the UK. Travel is included in the price.

Can you redo someone else’s repair?

In most cases. The old repair comes out first.

What happens once I’ve sent pictures?

We look at the photos and reply with a fixed quote and some dates. If we need another angle, we will ask.

Is it safe with children and pets around?

On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children.

Will there be a smell?

Expect a mild smell while we’re working.

Will you leave a mess?

No. The work area is masked and covered, and we take our waste away with us.

Can you repair a crack in an acrylic bath?

Typically, yes, if we can reach the underside to reinforce it. Check under the bath panel, or send us a picture.

How to care for the repair

Simple care helps the repair last. We recommend:

  • Rinse the bath after use, especially in hard water areas
  • Get a dripping tap fixed promptly
  • Do not leave razors or cans standing in the bath
  • Clean with warm water and a mild detergent

Give the repair the full curing time we recommend before using the bath. After that, gentle cleaning keeps it looking good.

Stop using the bath if a crack lets water through. Water under the bath can damage the floor and the ceiling below.
