Materials and what they mean for the repair
Cast iron
A cast iron bath is heavy enough that most people never want to move it. The enamel is the part that wears or chips, and that’s the part we put right.
Composite and resin
Composite baths are dense and solid, and often freestanding. Chips and scratches are filled and matched, in much the same way.
What bath repair costs
Prices start from £95. Each job gets its own fixed price. These are the things that affect it:
- How many areas need work
- What kind of damage it is
- Doing more than one item at once
- The material
We don’t add extras on the day. The price we quote from your photos is the price you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.
How to get a fixed quote
You can typically get a fixed quote without us visiting. To help us price it:
- A wider photo showing the whole bath
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- Any details about the material
Upload a picture of the damage and a wider shot of the entire item, with your PO17 postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed price.

How it works
Expect a friendly, tidy visit. We agree the arrival time in advance, protect the area, then carry out the work, which normally takes two to three hours for most chips. If anything looks different from your photos, we will talk to you before going ahead.
- We start by looking at the damage and confirming the plan with you.
- Loose enamel, rust and dirt are removed so the repair can bond.
- The damage is filled in layers and shaped to the curve of the bath.
- We tint the finish by hand to match the bath.
- Finally, it’s polished to match the shine and left to cure.
Preparing for the visit
- Let the surface dry out before the visit
- Let us know about parking or access
- Open a window if you can
How to get a price
We price from photos so you do not 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 you’ll get a fixed figure back.

Keeping it looking good
Aftercare is simple, and it makes a real difference:
- Cover the bath during DIY or decorating
- A dripping tap stains enamel, so fix it early
- If an acrylic bath flexes, have its feet adjusted
- Use a soft cloth and washing-up liquid for everyday cleaning
There is nothing special to do after a repair, just sensible cleaning. Skip bleach and gritty creams.
Until we visit, a strip of waterproof tape over the damage helps, to keep water out. Remove it before the repair.
Signs you need bath repair in Welborne
Rust generally starts where water sits, around the waste, under the taps or in an old chip. Water on bare metal causes rust that creeps under the surrounding enamel.
You may need us if you’ve spotted:
- Cracks in an acrylic bath
- An old repair that has yellowed or come loose
- Rust spots around the plughole
- Chips caused by builders
What to look for in a quote

When we would advise against a repair
We will not take on work that will not last, so here’s what a repair can’t put right:
- Cracks in acrylic we can’t reach from underneath
- Leaks from the waste or overflow fittings (a plumber’s job)
- A steel bath rusted through
Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly before you book.

FAQs for Welborne
Can you repair several things at once?
Of course, and it generally saves money. Just add the extra items to your pictures and we’ll quote them together.
Do you work for landlords and businesses?
Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as homeowners across Hampshire.
Is there any odour?
Some materials have a smell while they’re applied, so we ventilate the room. It fades as everything cures.
Is the work guaranteed?
All our work carries a one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.
Is a bath repair permanent?
A properly prepared repair should last a long time, and it’s guaranteed for a year. Gentle cleaning helps it last.
Something went through my bath. Can it be fixed?
Typically. Photos of the hole and the underside help us check.
Which areas do you work in?
The whole UK, including all of Hampshire. Just include your postcode and we will confirm dates.
Will the repair show?
On a bath in good condition, a colour-matched repair is very hard to spot. On older, dull enamel the repair can look glossier than the area around it.
DIY kit or professional repair?
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it will not stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.
