Bath repair at your home in Soberton
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. We work on acrylic, whirlpool & spa baths and roll-top & freestanding, and common reasons people contact us are hairline or through cracks in acrylic and damage beneath the taps.
Every repair is covered by our one-year guarantee, wherever you are in Hampshire.

How the visit works
It’s a tidy, low-fuss visit. We confirm the time with you beforehand, protect the area, then carry out the work, which normally takes two to three hours for most chips. If anything looks different from your pictures, we’ll talk to you before going ahead.
- We start by looking at the damage and confirming the plan with you.
- Loose enamel, rust and dirt are removed so the repair can bond.
- The damage is filled in layers and shaped to the curve of the bath.
- The colour is tinted by hand until it matches.
- Finally, it’s polished to match the shine and left to cure.
Preparing for the visit
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
- Ensure the room can be ventilated
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat

Common questions in Soberton
How do I book?
Use the quote form or ring 0345 017 0787.
How long does the repair take to cure?
Most baths can be used the next day. We confirm the time before we leave.
Will I be able to see the repair?
The goal is a repair that blends in. How well it disappears depends on the condition of the rest of the bath.
What happens if you find more damage?
We will show you and explain before doing anything extra. You won’t be charged for anything you haven’t agreed.
Is a cracked acrylic bath repairable?
In most cases. The back of the crack is strengthened before the front is filled and refinished, so access behind the panel is important.
Do I need to be at home?
We need someone to let us in. After that, you can carry on with your day.
Can you repair a failed DIY repair?
Yes. We remove the old filler and start again. Mention it when you send photos.
Is my repair covered?
Yes, for a year. If there is a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.
Landlord and trade work in Soberton
We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, fixing chips and scratches before handover. We’re CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.
Letting agents frequently send us photos straight from the inventory. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.
Repairing versus replacing in Soberton
Cast iron baths in particular are worth repairing: they’re very heavy to remove, especially upstairs, and replacing like for like isn’t cheap. A repair keeps it in place. Prices start from £95. A few things move the price: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.
Why book with us
- Most jobs done in one visit
- Colour mixed on the day to match
- No extra charge for your area
- Accredited with CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor

Can I fix it myself?
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is generally cheaper.
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair won’t last.
When we’d advise against a repair
It helps to know what we cannot do too:
- Rust that has eaten right through a steel bath
- A bath that flexes because its feet or cradle have failed (that needs fixing first)
- Wear across the whole surface, which needs re-enamelling
If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think before you book.
Surfaces we repair
- Pressed steel enamel
- Cast iron enamel
- Roll-top & freestanding
- Acrylic
- Whirlpool & spa baths
What bath repair costs
Repairs from £95. There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price is based on:
- What the surface is made of
- Access to the area
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- Whether we combine several jobs
Rather than charging by the hour, we price the whole job up front. Damage, material and access decide it, and doing several items at once reduces it.
Send pictures for a quote
Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what we need:
- What it’s made of, if you know
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- One picture of the whole bath
- Natural light rather than flash
You don’t need a survey visit. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we’ll come back to you with a fixed figure.
Repairs by material
Composite and resin
Composite baths are dense and solid, and often freestanding. Chips and scratches can be filled and colour-matched, in much the same way.
Acrylic
An acrylic bath is a moulded sheet strengthened from below. There is no rust, but cracks, holes and scratches happen, and cracks need support from behind to stay fixed.
