How we handle bath repair in Wecock Farm

Repairing baths is what we do most. Chips on the rim, rust around the waste and cracks in acrylic are all fixed without removing the bath, normally in a single visit. Common call-outs are for rusty patches near the plughole and chips caused by builders, across cast iron enamel, pressed steel enamel and whirlpool & spa baths.

A one-year guarantee comes as standard, so you are not left on your own once we’ve gone.

Do you need bath repair in Wecock Farm?

Nearly all the chips we see start with something being dropped: a shampoo bottle, a shower head, a tile or a tool during a refit. On enamelled baths, any chip down to the metal will start to rust.

People normally call us when they notice something like this:

  • Scuffs and scratches in the surface
  • A kit repair that didn’t last
  • A cracked acrylic bath
  • Chips on the rim or sides

Aftercare tips

How the surface is treated afterwards matters:

  • Do not scrub with anything abrasive
  • Do not leave a fresh chip for long
  • Put a towel in the bath if you are working above it
  • Store metal items away from the bath

Care for the repair the same way as the bath: a soft cloth and washing-up liquid is all it needs. Keep scouring pads and gritty cleaners away from it.

Avoid standing in a cracked acrylic bath until it’s fixed. Every use opens the crack a little more, and water can get through to the floor below.

Different materials, different repairs

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.

Pressed steel

Under the enamel of a steel bath is thin metal. Exposed steel rusts quickly, so the metal is treated and sealed before the repair.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

It’s natural to want to try a repair 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.

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.

The process

There’s not much you need to do on the day. Let us in and show us the room, and we’ll get on with it. Most visits take two to three hours for most chips.

  1. We protect the bath and the floor around it.
  2. The damaged area is cleaned, keyed and degreased, and any rust is treated.
  3. We fill it, let it set, then sand it flush.
  4. We match both the colour and the shine.
  5. We tidy up and tell you when the bath can be used, typically the day after.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work

Advice

Landlord and trade work in Wecock Farm

Letting agents often send us photos straight from the inventory. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.

Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets need rooms back in use quickly, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We can work around your bookings.

FAQs for Wecock Farm

Will you leave a mess?

Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we leave the room clean.

What areas do you cover?

All of Hampshire, and the rest of the UK. Travel is included in the price.

I tried a repair kit. Can you fix it?

Yes. We take out the old repair and do it properly. Tell us about it when you send pictures.

Is my repair covered?

All our work carries a one-year guarantee. We will explain what it covers when we quote.

Can landlords book you?

Yes. We carry out repairs for householders, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses.

Can you match an avocado or pink bath?

Yes. The colour is mixed on site to suit your bath, including pastel and older colours.

Can you repair a hole in a bath?

Often, if there is access underneath. The hole is backed, filled and refinished to match.

I’m a tenant. Can you help?

Yes, but check with your landlord or agent first. Many landlords are happy for a repair to be arranged.

When we’d advise against a repair

We will always be straight with you, so here’s what a repair won’t do:

  • Leaking fittings, which need a plumber
  • A bath that moves underfoot, until its support is fixed
  • Rust that has eaten right through a steel bath

Send us photos and we will tell you honestly before you book.

Materials we work on in Wecock Farm

  • Pressed steel enamel
  • Cast iron enamel
  • Roll-top & freestanding
  • Acrylic
  • Whirlpool & spa baths

Repair or replace: which is better?

For damage in one or two places, a repair is the obvious choice. It costs far less than a new bath plus fitting, it’s done in one visit, and the bathroom stays exactly as it is. Prices start from £95. The price reflects the work involved, not your postcode. The full price is agreed before you book.
