Bath repair at your home in Pilsdon
Most of our bath repairs take a few hours, and the bath is back in use the day after. There is no need to book a plumber or tiler, because the bath does not move. We work on acrylic, cast iron enamel and roll-top & freestanding, and the jobs we see most are snagging damage from a refit and rust spots around the plughole.
Big or small, you get the same one-year guarantee in Pilsdon and across Dorset.

DIY repairs versus a professional job
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.
If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely and work on a clean, dry surface, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.
When to call us in Pilsdon
A cracked acrylic bath normally wasn’t supported properly. Legs that are not adjusted, a missing cradle or a soft floor let the bath move.
Customers generally contact us about:
- Rust by the waste and overflow
- Hairline or through cracks in acrylic
- A kit repair that didn’t last
- Chips on the rim or sides

Work for landlords and builders
If you manage property in Pilsdon, we will quote for several properties at once. Just send photos for each address and we will come back with a combined price.
Rental properties take more wear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.
Your questions about bath repair in Pilsdon
Do you work in Pilsdon?
We do. We send a technician to Pilsdon for every job, and the price is the same as everywhere else.
Is a bath repair permanent?
Done properly, a repair lasts for years, and ours come with a one-year guarantee. Gentle cleaning helps.
What if the damage is worse than the photos show?
We’ll show you and explain before doing anything extra. You will not be charged for anything you haven’t agreed.
I rent my home. Can I book you?
Of course. Ask your landlord first, and we can send them the quote if that helps.
Is it safe with children and pets around?
On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children, so the repair isn’t disturbed while it cures.
Can you match an avocado or pink bath?
Yes, we match coloured baths too. We tint the finish to your bath on site.
It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?
Generally, yes. Let us know what was used before.
Do I need to be at home?
Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time we agree with you.
Repair or replace: which is better?
Many people think a damaged bath means a new one. Usually it doesn’t: a proper repair gives it years more use, without the cost and upheaval of replacing it. Prices start from £95. A repair typically costs much less than people expect, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Photos let us give you the exact figure.
Why book with us
- Nothing taken out or refitted
- We come to you, anywhere in the UK
- Honest advice, even when it means no job
- We leave the room as we found it
See our pricing and resurfacing vs replacement cost guide.
How it works
We turn up at the time we agreed with you, introduces themselves and looks over the damage before anything else. The floor and nearby surfaces are covered before we open a single tin. Most visits take a few hours, depending on the damage, and we leave the room as we found it.
- First, we check the damage against your photos 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.
- We tint the finish by hand to match the bath.
- The repair is polished to the same gloss as the bath and left to cure.
How to prepare
- Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
- Tell us about parking, stairs or access
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day

What else we do in Pilsdon
Repairs by material
Pressed steel
Under the enamel of a steel bath is thin metal. Once a chip exposes it, rust follows quickly, so the metal is treated and sealed before the repair.
Acrylic
Acrylic baths are moulded sheet reinforced underneath. They do not rust, but they can crack, scratch or be holed, and cracks need support from behind to stay fixed.
Aftercare tips
Good habits make a big difference to how long a repair lasts:
- Get a dripping tap fixed promptly
- Don’t leave razors or cans standing in the bath
- Protect the bath with a towel when doing jobs nearby
- Rinse it down after each bath
Keep metal objects like razors and cans off the surface, as they can leave rust marks. A dripping tap should be fixed early, too.
Avoid standing in a cracked acrylic bath until it’s fixed. Every use opens the crack a little more, and water can get through to the floor below.
How we price bath repair
Prices start from £95. There is no charge for travel to Pilsdon. The price depends on:
- How many items we do on one visit
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- What kind of damage it is
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.
Getting a price from pictures
Photographing the damage takes a minute. Please include:
- The material, if you know it
- Something in shot to show the size
- One picture of the entire bath
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
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 will come back with a fixed figure.
