- Repairs from £95
- Cracks in an acrylic bath
- A kit repair that didn’t last
How to care for the repair
Much of the damage we repair could have been avoided. These habits help:
- Rinse it down after each bath
- Use a soft cloth and washing-up liquid for everyday cleaning
- Keep abrasive pads and gritty cleaners away from the bath
- Don’t leave a fresh chip for long
Clean with mild, non-abrasive cleaners and avoid dropping heavy items on the repaired area. Deal with new chips early, before rust sets in.
Don’t leave a chip on a steel or cast iron bath. Once water reaches the metal, rust begins, turning a quick repair into a bigger one.
About our bath repair in Stourscombe
A damaged bath doesn’t have to mean a new bathroom. Our technicians fill, shape and refinish the damage, mixing the colour on the day. If you are dealing with rusty patches near the plughole and a chipped rim or side, we can help, on pressed steel enamel, cast iron enamel and whirlpool & spa baths alike.
Peace of mind is built in: each job carries a one-year guarantee, and we explain what it covers before booking.

Repairs by material
Acrylic
Acrylic baths are moulded sheet reinforced underneath. They don’t rust, but they can crack, scratch or be holed, and a crack only stays repaired if it’s supported underneath.
Composite and resin
Stone resin and composite baths are heavy and solid. Chips and scratches can be filled and colour matched, just like other baths.
What a repair can’t fix
Not everything can be repaired, and we’d rather say so up front. We can’t fix:
- Cracks in parts of an acrylic bath we can’t get to from below
- Rust that has eaten right through a steel bath
- Water coming from the waste or taps rather than the bath
Send us pictures and we will tell you honestly before booking.
Materials we repair
- Pressed steel enamel
- Roll-top & freestanding
- Whirlpool & spa baths

FAQs for Stourscombe
Can landlords book you?
We do, regularly. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.
Is the work guaranteed?
Yes: twelve months. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.
How much does bath repair cost in Stourscombe?
Prices start from £95. Because every job differs, we price from photos. You will get a fixed figure before you book.
Can you repair a hole in a bath?
Normally. Photos of the hole and the underside help us check.
Are you a vetted contractor?
Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.
Will you leave a mess?
We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and tidy up before we leave.
Will there be a smell?
It depends on the job, but frequently a little. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum, and it soon fades.
Do you repair coloured baths?
Yes, coloured baths are no problem. The colour is tinted by hand on the day.
The process
There’s not much you need to do on the day. Let us in and show us the room, and we will take it from there. The job generally runs to two to three hours for most chips, including clearing up.
- First, the area is cleaned and any loose enamel or rust is removed.
- We fill the damage and sand it flush with the surrounding surface.
- We tint the finish on the day to suit your bath’s shade of white or colour.
- We apply the finish coats and polish the repair so it blends in.
- We leave it to cure; you can typically use the bath the following day.
Getting ready for the visit
- Keep a parking space free if you can
- Let us know if it has been repaired before
- Ensure the room can be ventilated
How to get a price
Getting a price is easy: take a close-up of the damage and a photo from further back, send them to us with your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price. There is no charge for the quote and you are under no obligation.

Work for landlords and builders
If you manage property in Stourscombe, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Just send pictures for each address and we will come back with a combined price.
We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which matters when someone is living in the home.
DIY kit or professional repair?
If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, make sure the area is clean and completely dry, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is normally the cheaper route.
Prices and what affects them
Repairs from £95. You will not pay by the hour. The price depends on:
- How hard the colour is to match
- The material
- How many areas need work
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
The price depends on how much damage there is and what kind, what it’s made of and how many items we do on one visit. We give a fixed quote from your pictures, so you know the cost before booking.
Getting a price from pictures
Good pictures mean an accurate price. Here’s what we find most useful:
- The material, if you know it
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- One picture of the entire bath
We price from photos so you don’t have to wait in for a survey. 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.
Do you need bath repair in Stourscombe?
Glass and heavy bottles cause more chips than anything else, with dropped shower heads close behind. Taps and wastes cause problems too: water collects there, so chips nearby rust quickly.
The things customers generally mention when they call include:
- An old repair that has yellowed or come loose
- Holes from dropped items
- Rust spots around the plughole
- A chip where the taps sit
Questions to ask before booking
- What protection goes down before work starts
- Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?
- How soon you can use it again
- Whether there are any call-out or travel charges
