When a repair is not the answer
Not everything can be repaired, and we’d rather say so up front. Repairs won’t solve:
- Leaks from the waste or overflow fittings (a plumber’s job)
- A bath that moves underfoot, until its support is fixed
- Cracks in acrylic we cannot reach from underneath
Not sure? Send pictures and we will give you a straight answer before booking.

Do you need bath repair in Sparsholt?
The usual cause is something heavy dropped into the bath, and building work is a common culprit. Acrylic baths crack for a different reason: the bath isn’t properly supported, so it flexes under weight.
The most common problems we’re called about are:
- An old repair that has yellowed or come loose
- Hairline or through cracks in acrylic
- Chips under the taps
- Impact holes in acrylic
Before you book anyone
- The length of the guarantee and what it covers
- How to care for the finish
- Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?
- How the colour is matched
DIY kit or professional repair?
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, ensure the area is clean and completely dry, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.
What happens on the day
Here’s how a visit typically runs: we arrive at the agreed slot, protect everything around the work area, do the job and clear up. Allow a few hours from start to finish. Before leaving, we tell you how long to leave it and how to care for it.
- 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, usually the following day.
Before we arrive
- Point us to the nearest place to park
- Tell us about parking, stairs or access
- Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area

Advice
What your bath is made of matters
Cast iron
A cast iron bath is heavy enough that most people never want to move it. Only the enamel surface wears or chips, and that is the part we put right.
Pressed steel
Steel baths and trays have a thin metal body under the enamel. Exposed steel rusts quickly, so we treat and seal the metal before filling.
Landlord and trade work in Sparsholt
We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out pictures. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.
For anyone letting property in or around Sparsholt, we will quote for several properties at once. Send pictures for each one and we will come back with a combined price.
Why repair rather than replace?
Swapping a damaged bath for a new one usually means a plumber, removing the old bath, making good the tiles and panel and disposing of the old one. Repairing it deals only with the damage in a single visit. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. 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.
What you get with us
- Work done at your home or business
- Dust sheets down, tidy finish
- Same prices wherever you are
- Colours mixed by hand to suit your surface
