Book bath repair in Pleck Green

What your bath is made of matters

Cast iron

Cast iron baths are thick and very strong, with a fused enamel surface. Chips can rust if left, but the body of the bath lasts a very long time, so it’s always worth repairing.

Composite and resin

Composite baths are dense and solid. Chips and scratches are filled and matched, in much the same way.

Bath repair in Pleck Green, done in place

You don’t need a new bath because of a chip. We fill the damage, shape it to the curve of the bath and refinish it, with the colour mixed on site so the repair is hard to spot. Whether it’s impact holes in acrylic and chips along the edge of the bath, we can normally put it right, on acrylic, roll-top & freestanding and pressed steel enamel alike.

Whatever the size of the job, you get the same one-year guarantee in Pleck Green and across Dorset.

Repairing versus replacing in Pleck Green

Cast iron baths especially are worth keeping: they’re very heavy to remove, especially upstairs, and replacing like for like is not cheap. A repair keeps it in place. Prices start from £95. A few things move the price: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

Why book with us

  • Honest advice, even when it means no job
  • Dust sheets down, tidy finish
  • CHAS and Constructionline accredited
  • Everything repaired in place

Take a look at our prices page and resurfacing vs replacement cost guide.

What bath repair costs

Repairs from £95. There’s no charge for travel to Pleck Green. The price comes down to:

  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • How many areas need work
  • The type of damage
  • Unusual colours or finishes

Instead of hourly rates, we price the whole job up front. Damage, material and access decide it.

Quotes from your photos

Two or three clear pictures are generally enough. Try to include:

  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • Details of any past repairs

You don’t need a survey visit. Nearly every job can be priced from pictures: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed price.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Pleck Green

Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs in Dorset and across the UK. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which matters when someone is living in the home.

We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out photos. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.

Aftercare tips

It’s all simple stuff:

  • Get any new chip repaired before it rusts
  • Use a soft cloth and washing-up liquid for everyday cleaning
  • Avoid scourers, wire wool and gritty cream cleaners
  • Make sure an acrylic bath is firm underfoot

Give the repair the full curing time we recommend before using the bath. From then on, mild cleaning is all it needs.

Rust under enamel spreads surprisingly quickly. A chip the size of a fingernail can become a much larger patch if it’s left for months, so it pays to deal with it early.

Can I fix it myself?

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.

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair won’t last.

The process

The work is clean and fairly quiet, so you can carry on at home. Protection goes down 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. We start by cleaning the damage and taking out loose enamel and rust.
  2. Next we fill the damage and sand it smooth and level.
  3. We tint the finish on the day to suit your bath’s shade of white or colour.
  4. Finish coats go on, then the repair is polished to blend in.
  5. Once it has cured, typically by the next day, the bath is ready to use.

Advice

What we cannot put right

Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:

  • A whole bath that’s dull or worn, where a full re-enamel is the better fix
  • A steel bath rusted through
  • Leaking fittings, which need a plumber
