Trusted bath repair in West Lulworth

For landlords and businesses

Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs in Dorset and across the UK. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which matters when someone is living in the home.

Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.

What we can’t put right

In fairness, some problems need a different fix:

  • Wear across the whole surface, which needs re-enamelling
  • Water coming from the waste or taps rather than the bath
  • Flexing caused by a failed cradle or loose feet

Send us pictures and we will tell you honestly.

What we work on

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

Repair or replace: which is better?

A repair makes sense whenever the damage is localised. It costs far less than a new bath plus fitting, it’s done in one visit, and nothing else in the room changes. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. A repair usually costs much less than people expect, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Send photos and we will give you the exact figure.

Your questions about bath repair in West Lulworth

How do I get a price for bath repair in West Lulworth?

Prices start from £95. Because every job differs, we price from pictures. You know the full cost before anything is booked.

Do I need to be at home?

Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time that suits you.

What do you need from me?

A close-up, a wider photo and your postcode. Then we’ll agree a date.

Can rust on a bath be repaired?

Yes. We remove the rust and loose enamel, seal and fill the area, then colour-match the finish.

Do you work in West Lulworth?

Yes. We cover the entire UK and travel to West Lulworth. Send photos and we will quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

Can you repair a hole in a bath?

Normally, yes, if we can reach behind it. The hole is backed, filled and refinished to match.

What happens after I send photos?

You get a fixed quote and available dates. If anything’s unclear, we will ask for another photo.

Can you repair something that’s been repaired before?

Typically, yes. We remove the old repair before doing a new one, so let us know about it.

Keeping it looking good

Once the work has cured, treat it gently:

  • Check that an acrylic bath does not move when you stand in it
  • Do not leave a fresh chip for long
  • Fix dripping taps early to stop staining and limescale
  • Protect the bath with a towel when doing jobs nearby

In the first few days, avoid putting weight or bottles on the repair. After that, clean it as you would the rest of the bath, avoiding abrasives.

Stop using the bath if a crack lets water through. Leaks under a bath can damage floors and ceilings.

What your bath is made of matters

Cast iron

Cast iron is heavy and rigid, with a fused enamel surface. A chip down to the iron can rust, but the bath itself lasts for generations, so it’s always worth repairing.

Acrylic

Acrylic is light and warm to the touch, but it relies on good support. Cracks are strengthened from behind before the front is finished.

Can I fix it myself?

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.

A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it won’t stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.

How we price bath repair

Repairs from £95. We price every job individually, from your pictures. The main factors are:

  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • How many areas need work
  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • The material and finish

No two jobs are quite the same, so each one is priced on its own. The size and type of damage, the material and access all make a difference, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

Quotes from your pictures

Phone pictures are fine. Just ensure we can see:

  • Details of any past repairs
  • A wider photo showing the whole bath
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • Where you are, by postcode

The quickest way to a price is to send a couple of pictures using our quote form or ring us. We’ll say straight away whether it can be repaired.

How the visit works

We turn up when we said we would, introduces themselves and looks over the damage before anything else. The floor and nearby surfaces are covered before we open a single tin. The work itself takes a few hours, depending on the damage, and the room is left clean and tidy.

  1. We protect the bath and the floor around it.
  2. We clean, key and degrease the damage.
  3. We fill it, let it set, then sand it flush.
  4. Colour and gloss are matched to the surrounding surface.
  5. We tidy up and tell you when the bath can be used, typically the day after.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
