Bath Repair for Totland homes
Chip and crack repairs to enamel, acrylic and cast iron baths in Totland, carried out at your home and guaranteed for a year.
- Repairs from £95
- Rust by the waste and overflow
- A kit repair that didn’t last
Common problems we fix in Totland
Nearly all the chips we see start with something being dropped: bottles, shower heads, tiles and tools. On enamelled baths, any chip down to the metal will start to rust.
Most people contact us when they notice one of these:
- Damage beneath the taps
- Rust spots around the plughole
- A hole punched through by something heavy
- Chips on the rim or sides
If you live in one of the older homes near a church such as Christ Church, an original cast iron or steel bath is worth keeping, and bath repair gives it years more use.

Bath repair in Totland without replacing anything
Most of our bath repairs take a few hours, and the bath is back in use the next day. You will not need a plumber or tiler, because nothing is disconnected. If you have snagging damage from a refit and scratches you can feel with a fingernail, we can typically put it right, on acrylic, whirlpool & spa baths and pressed steel enamel alike.
In and around Totland, homes are a mix of older cottages and newer houses. Older ones may still have cast iron or steel baths, which are well worth keeping.
Big or small, it’s backed by a one-year guarantee.

How the visit works
Expect a friendly, tidy visit. We agree the arrival time in advance, cover and mask the work area, and get on with the job, which normally takes a few hours, depending on the damage. If anything looks different from your photos, we will talk to you before going ahead. For a home in Totland, we normally park close by and start straight away, after agreeing the plan with you.
- First, we check the damage against your photos and agree the plan.
- Loose enamel, rust and dirt are removed so the repair can bond.
- We build up the filler in layers, shaping it to the bath.
- We tint the finish by hand to match the bath.
- The repair is polished to the same gloss as the bath and left to cure.
Preparing for the visit
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
- Let us know which floor the room is on
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
Getting a price
The quickest way to a price is to send two or three photos through our quote form or ring us. We will tell you honestly if a repair is the right fix.

What a repair can’t fix
Some jobs aren’t right for a repair, including:
- Cracks in parts of an acrylic bath we can’t get to from below
- A bath that flexes because its feet or cradle have failed (that needs fixing first)
- A bath worn all over, where resurfacing makes more sense
Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly.

DIY repairs versus a professional job
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 isn’t prepared the repair will not last.
For a hairline mark somewhere you will never see, a kit may be enough. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, a professional repair is worth it.
Repairs by material
Cast iron
Cast iron is heavy and rigid, 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.
Landlords, agents and businesses in Totland
We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, fixing chips and scratches before handover so nothing needs replacing. We’re CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.
For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover. We can visit several plots in one trip to keep costs down.
Aftercare tips
After the repair has cured, a few habits help it last:
- Keep abrasive pads and gritty cleaners away from the bath
- Keep metal cans and razors off the surface
- Get any new chip repaired before it rusts
- Rinse it down after each bath
Keep metal objects like razors and cans off the surface, as they can leave rust marks. A dripping tap should be fixed early, too.
Tape over a fresh chip or crack until it’s repaired, to keep water out. Take it off before we arrive.
Totland questions
My house in Totland is a period property. Is the original worth keeping?
Generally: period pieces can be hard to match if replaced. Send pictures and we’ll advise.
Will you leave a mess?
No. The work area is masked and covered, and we take our waste away with us.
Will the price change on the day?
The price is fixed for what the pictures show. Anything extra is discussed before we begin.
Do you work for landlords and businesses?
Yes, frequently. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.
Can you repair a crack in an acrylic bath?
In most cases. We reinforce the crack from behind, then fill and refinish the front, so access behind the panel is important.
Is a bath repair permanent?
It should, as long as the bath is firm and the area was prepared well. It’s covered by our one-year guarantee.
Can you repair a hole in a bath?
In most cases. Send us a photo of the hole and one from under the bath if you can.
Is repairing better than replacing?
In most cases, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. We will be honest if it’s not worth it.
What affects the price in Totland
Prices start from £95. We charge the same across the UK, including Totland. What changes the price is:
- The material and finish
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- What kind of damage it is
- Whether we combine several jobs
What it costs depends on the type and amount of damage, what it’s made of and how many jobs we combine into one visit. We give a fixed quote from your pictures, so there are no surprises on the day.
Quotes from your pictures
When you take your pictures, a few simple things make all the difference:
- What it’s made of, if you know
- A wider photo showing the whole bath
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
Send us a picture of the damage and one of the whole item, with your PO39 postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote.
