Bath repair in Winterborne Kingston, done in place
A repair fixes just the damaged area and blends it into the rest of the bath, which is far cheaper than replacing a fitted bath. Most baths can be used again the day after. We regularly repair pressed steel enamel, cast iron enamel and whirlpool & spa baths, and common reasons people get in touch are deep scratches in acrylic and a chip where the taps sit.
A one-year guarantee comes as standard.

Different materials, different repairs
Cast iron
Cast iron is heavy and rigid, finished with fired enamel. Chips can rust if left, but the bath itself lasts for generations, which makes it well worth repairing.
Composite and resin
Composite baths are dense and solid, and often freestanding. Chips and scratches can be filled and colour matched, just like other baths.
How the visit works
From the moment we arrive, we keep the work contained to the one room. We mask off everything nearby, the job takes two to three hours for most chips, depending on what we find, and we finish with a tidy-up and a look at the finished work together.
- We start by looking at the damage and confirming the plan with you.
- Any rust and loose material comes out, and the area is degreased.
- We build up the filler in layers, shaping it to the bath.
- The colour is tinted by hand until it matches.
- Finally, it’s polished to match the shine and left to cure.
Preparing for the visit
- Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
- Point us to the nearest place to park
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
Getting a price
The quickest way to a price is to send two or three pictures through our quote form or ring us. We’ll say immediately whether it can be repaired.

Aftercare tips
Much of the damage we repair could have been avoided. A few tips:
- Store metal items away from the bath
- A dripping tap stains enamel, so fix it early
- Use a soft cloth and washing-up liquid for everyday cleaning
- Do not scrub with anything abrasive
Use gentle, non-abrasive cleaners and avoid dropping heavy items on the repaired area. Deal with new chips early, before rust can start.
Until we visit, a strip of waterproof tape over the damage helps, so water cannot get in. Take it off before we arrive.
Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £95. You will know the full cost before booking. We look at:
- How easy the damage is to reach
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- How much damage there is
- Whether we combine several jobs
There are no surprise extras on the day. The price we quote from your photos is the price you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.
Send pictures for a quote
The better the pictures, the more accurate the price. Here’s what helps:
- The material, if you know it
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- Natural light rather than flash
Getting a price is easy: snap the damage close up and then the entire item, send them to us with your postcode, and you’ll get a fixed price back. Quotes are free and no obligation.
DIY kit or professional repair?
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it will not stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.

Repairing versus replacing in Winterborne Kingston
A new bath brings a chain of other jobs: the tiles sitting on the rim tend to break, a new panel is often needed, and a plumber has to disconnect and reconnect everything. Repairing the damage avoids all of that. Prices start from £95. Our prices are the same across the UK, so there is no premium for Winterborne Kingston. What changes the price is the job itself: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.
