Bath Repair in Upper Burgate
Our repair technicians come to Upper Burgate for chip and crack repairs to enamel, acrylic and cast iron baths. Nothing is taken out, with a one-year guarantee.
- Repairs from £95
- Rust spots around the plughole
- A chipped rim or side
DIY kit or professional repair?
If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely and work on a clean, dry surface, and give it the full curing time. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is generally the cheaper route.
Bath repair at your home in Upper Burgate
Whether your bath is steel, cast iron or acrylic, we can repair it. Each material is repaired a little differently: metal baths need any rust dealt with first, and acrylic cracks need support from behind. Common call-outs are for chips caused by builders and scratches you can feel with a fingernail, on whirlpool & spa baths, cast iron enamel and acrylic.
Big or small, you get the same one-year guarantee.

Looking after it afterwards
Much of the damage we repair could have been avoided. These habits help:
- Do not leave a fresh chip for long
- Give the bath a quick rinse after use
- A dripping tap stains enamel, so fix it early
- Don’t scrub with anything abrasive
Give the repair the full curing time we recommend before running a bath. From then on, mild cleaning is all it needs.
Don’t leave a chip on a steel or cast iron bath. Water gets to the metal and rust starts, and a rust spot is a bigger repair than a clean chip.

When to call us in Upper Burgate
Baths take more knocks than people expect: bottles, shower heads and razors are dropped every day, and taps and wastes are tightened against the surface. Over time, chips and rust spots are almost inevitable.
People typically call us after spotting something like this:
- A chip where the taps sit
- A hole punched through by something heavy
- A kit repair that didn’t last
- Damage done while the bathroom was being fitted

Upper Burgate: your questions answered
Are you a vetted contractor?
We are accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.
What about rust by the waste?
Yes, very often. The rust is cut back to clean metal and sealed before we fill and finish it.
Is there a call-out fee?
We don’t add a call-out fee. Your fixed quote includes everything.
Something went through my bath. Can it be fixed?
Frequently, if there’s access underneath. The hole is backed, filled and refinished to match.
Can you match an avocado or pink bath?
Yes, coloured baths are no problem. The colour is tinted by hand on the day.
Do you cover the whole of Hampshire?
We cover the entire UK, including Upper Burgate and the rest of Hampshire. Just include your postcode and we will confirm dates.
Can you do more than one item on the same visit?
Yes, and it’s often cheaper. Send pictures of everything together and we’ll quote them together.
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
We’re happy to deal with the tenant, landlord or agent. Get your landlord’s agreement first.
Honest limits
Before booking, it’s worth knowing the limits:
- A steel bath rusted through
- A whole bath that’s dull or worn, where a full re-enamel is the better fix
- A bath that moves underfoot, until its support is fixed
Not sure? Send photos and we’ll give you a straight answer before you book.
Materials we repair
- Cast iron enamel
- Whirlpool & spa baths
- Pressed steel enamel
- Acrylic
- Roll-top & freestanding
Materials and what they mean for the repair
Acrylic
Acrylic is light and warm to the touch, but it needs firm support underneath. Cracks are strengthened from behind before the front is finished.
Pressed steel
Under the enamel of a steel bath is thin metal. Once a chip exposes it, rust follows quickly, so we treat and seal the metal before filling.

What affects the price in Upper Burgate
Repairs from £95. You will not pay by the hour. The price depends on:
- How many areas need work
- How easy the damage is to reach
- How many items we do on one visit
- What the surface is made of
Instead of hourly rates, we fix the price before we start. Damage, material and access decide it, and combining items on one visit brings it down.
Getting a price from pictures
Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what to send:
- A picture taken from further back
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- Any details about the material
- Natural light rather than flash
Call 0345 017 0787 or use the quote form. With one close-up and one wider picture, we can price the job without visiting.
The process
On the day, we arrive at the time we have agreed, cover the area with dust sheets and masking, and set to work. The job normally takes a few hours, depending on the damage. We tidy up before we leave and let you know when you can use it again.
- We start by cleaning the damage and taking out loose enamel and rust.
- We fill the damage and sand it flush with the surrounding surface.
- The colour is mixed on the spot to match your bath.
- We build up the finish and polish it into the surrounding enamel.
- The repair is left to cure, and most baths can be used the next day.
How to prepare
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
- Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
- Have a window or extractor fan available
