Repair or replace in Pilley?
Replacing a bath rarely stops at the bath: tiles along the rim usually crack when it comes out, the panel may not fit the new one, and a plumber has to disconnect and reconnect everything. Repairing the damage avoids all of that. Our bath repair starts from £95. No two jobs are quite the same, so each one is priced on its own. The size and type of damage, the material and access all play a part, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

Pilley questions
How long before I can use the bath?
Most baths can be used the next day. We’ll tell you the exact curing time when we finish.
Do you work in Pilley?
We do. We send a technician to Pilley for every job, and the price is the same as everywhere else.
I rent my home. Can I book you?
We can work for tenants, landlords or agents. Just ensure the landlord agrees.
Which areas do you work in?
The whole UK, including all of Hampshire. Send your postcode with your pictures and we’ll confirm dates.
Will the price change on the day?
Your quote covers the damage in the pictures. Anything extra is discussed before we begin.
Do the materials smell?
There can be some smell while we work, which is why we ventilate. It fades as everything cures.
Can you quote from pictures?
Yes, almost always. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed quote.
Can you repair a hole in a bath?
Usually. Photos of the hole and the underside help us check.
How it works
It’s a tidy, low-fuss visit. We confirm the time with you beforehand, cover and mask the work area, then carry out the work, which normally takes a morning or an afternoon. If we find something your pictures didn’t show, we will explain it before carrying on.
- First, we check the damage against your pictures and agree the plan.
- Any rust and loose material comes out, and the area is degreased.
- We build up the filler in layers, shaping it to the bath.
- The colour is tinted by hand until it matches.
- Finally, it’s polished to match the shine and left to cure.
How to prepare
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
- Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
How to get a price
If you’re in Pilley and want a price, photos are the quickest way: a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode. You’ll get a fixed quote with dates to choose from.

How to look after the repair
To keep it looking its best:
- Rinse it down after each bath
- Put a towel in the bath if you’re working above it
- A dripping tap stains enamel, so fix it early
- Don’t leave a fresh chip for long
For the first few days, keep heavy bottles off the repaired spot. After that, normal gentle cleaning is fine without abrasive products.
Tape over a fresh chip or crack until it’s repaired, so water cannot get in. Remove it before the repair.
Different materials, different repairs
Acrylic
Acrylic baths are moulded sheet reinforced underneath. There is no rust, but cracks, holes and scratches happen, and a crack only stays repaired if it’s supported underneath.
Composite and resin
Stone resin and composite baths are heavy and solid, and frequently freestanding. Chips and scratches can be filled and colour matched, in much the same way.

Prices and what affects them
Repairs from £95. Prices are worked out job by job. What matters most is:
- How many items we do on one visit
- Access to the area
- The type of damage
- The material
We charge the same wherever you are, with no extra for Pilley. The job itself decides the price: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.
How to get a fixed price
You can usually get a fixed quote without us visiting. To help us price it:
- A wider photo showing the entire bath
- Details of any past repairs
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
No survey visit is needed: we price from pictures. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through, and we’ll come back with a fixed figure.
DIY kit or professional repair?
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.
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
For landlords and businesses
We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out pictures. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.
Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover, so there’s no need to replace a damaged item at the last minute. We can visit several plots in one trip to keep costs down.
