Whether it’s damage beneath the taps and chips caused by builders, we can typically put it right, whatever the material.

Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £95. You will not pay by the hour. The price depends on:
- How easy the damage is to reach
- Whether we combine several jobs
- The material and finish
- The size and number of damaged areas
A repair is priced on what needs doing, not where you live. The full price is agreed before booking, with nothing added on the day.
Getting a price from pictures
Photographing the damage takes a minute. Try to send:
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- The material, if you know it
- One picture of the entire bath
Most clients in Southbrook get their price from pictures. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.
Aftercare tips
Good habits make a big difference to how long a repair lasts:
- Get a dripping tap fixed promptly
- Store metal items away from the bath
- Don’t leave a fresh chip for long
- Use a soft cloth and washing-up liquid for everyday cleaning
In the first few days, avoid putting weight or bottles on the repair. After that, normal gentle cleaning is fine, avoiding abrasives.
If an acrylic bath has a crack, stop showering in it until it’s repaired. Each time it flexes, the crack grows, and water can get through to the floor below.

What else we do in Southbrook
Repair or replace: which is better?
People frequently assume a cracked or chipped bath has to come out. In most cases it doesn’t: a repair keeps the bath in service for years, without the cost and upheaval of replacing it. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Every job is a little different, so we price each one individually. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all make a difference, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

Southbrook questions

Are you accredited?

Do I need to be at home?
Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. You do not need to watch us work.
Do you do work for letting agents?

Is repairing better than replacing?
Typically, if the item is otherwise sound. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. If replacing would be better, we will say so.
How long before I can use the bath?
Generally within a day, depending on the repair.
Can pets and children be at home?
Please keep children and pets out of the room during the visit and until it has cured. The rest of the house is unaffected.
What happens on the day
From the moment we arrive, the aim is to do the job without disturbing the rest of your home. We mask off everything nearby, the work takes a morning or an afternoon, and we finish by cleaning up and talking you through the result.
- Dust sheets and masking go down around the bath.
- We clean, key and degrease the damage, and any rust is treated.
- We fill it, let it set, then sand it flush.
- Colour and gloss are matched to the surrounding surface.
- We tidy up and tell you when the bath can be used, generally the day after.
Getting ready for the visit
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
- Open a window if you can
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
How to get a price
Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: photograph the damage, then the entire bath, add your postcode and send them to us. What comes back is a fixed quote, not a guess.

When to call us in Southbrook
Rust tends to begin where water collects, by the plughole, beneath dripping taps or in an unrepaired chip. Once water reaches the steel or iron, rust spreads under the enamel.
These are the problems we are asked about most:
- Rust spots around the plughole
- Chips along the edge of the bath
- A chip where the taps sit
- A kit repair that didn’t last
What your quote should include
- Whether a trained technician does the job
- How long it needs to cure
- Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?
- How to look after the finish
Materials and what they mean for the repair
Composite and resin
Composite baths are dense and solid, and frequently freestanding. Chips and scratches can be filled and colour-matched, just like other baths.
Acrylic
Acrylic is light and warm to the touch, but it relies on good support. Cracks are strengthened from behind before the front is finished.
Should I try a DIY kit first?
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, make sure the area is clean and completely dry, and give it the full curing time. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.
