Bath repair at your home in Winterborne Stickland
Small damage on a bath is worth repairing early. On steel and cast iron, exposed metal starts to rust, while cracks in acrylic grow each time the bath moves. Repairing it stops the damage getting worse. We regularly repair roll-top & freestanding, pressed steel enamel and cast iron enamel, and people most often call us about a kit repair that didn’t last and hairline or through cracks in acrylic.
You are covered for a year from the day of the repair. If anything isn’t right, ring us and we will sort it.

Should I try a DIY kit first?
We understand the appeal of fixing it 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.
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, then guarantee it for a year.
When we’d advise against a repair
A repair is not right for every job, including:
- A bath that moves underfoot, until its support is fixed
- Cracks in acrylic we cannot reach from underneath
- Metal that has corroded all the way through
Send us photos and we will tell you honestly.
What we work on

Questions from Winterborne Stickland
Is repairing better than replacing?
In most cases, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. If it isn’t worth repairing, we will tell you.
Do you cover Winterborne Stickland?
Yes. We cover the whole UK and travel to Winterborne Stickland and the rest of Dorset. Send pictures and we’ll quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
What information do you need?
Send pictures through the quote form or call 0345 017 0787, and we will do the rest.
Will the repair last?
Done properly, a repair lasts for years, and ours come with a one-year guarantee. Gentle cleaning helps it last.
Can I get a quote without a visit?
Nearly always. We only ask to see it in person if the pictures cannot show what we need.
What if the damage is worse than the pictures show?
Your quote covers the damage in the photos. If there’s more, we will tell you before starting.
Are there extra charges for Winterborne Stickland?
No. Our quotes include travel, with the same prices everywhere we work.
Can a cracked acrylic bath be fixed?
Most of the time. The back of the crack is strengthened before the front is filled and refinished, so access behind the panel is important.
Repairing versus replacing in Winterborne Stickland
Replacing a bath rarely stops at the bath: tiles along the rim typically crack when it comes out, a new panel is often needed, and the plumbing has to be disconnected and refitted. A repair skips all of it. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. The price depends on how much damage there is and what kind, what it’s made of and how many jobs we combine into one visit. We give a fixed price from your photos, so there are no surprises on the day.
What you get with us
- Dust sheets down, tidy finish

- Same prices wherever you are

What affects the price in Winterborne Stickland
Prices start from £95. There is no area surcharge for Winterborne Stickland. What changes the price is:
- How many areas need work
- What the surface is made of
- Whether we combine several jobs
- Unusual colours or finishes
Instead of hourly rates, we price the whole job up front. Damage, material and access decide it, and doing several items at once reduces it.
Getting a price from photos
Good pictures mean an accurate price. Here’s what we find most useful:
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- Any details about the material
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: take one close-up and one wider shot of the bath, include your postcode and send them over. You will get a fixed price, not an estimate.

How to look after the repair
Good habits make a big difference to how long a repair lasts:
- Do not leave a fresh chip for long
- Store metal items away from the bath
- Give the bath a quick rinse after use
- Keep abrasive pads and gritty cleaners away from the bath
Leave the repair to cure for as long as we say before using the bath. After that, gentle cleaning keeps it looking good.
If an acrylic bath has a crack, stop showering in it until it’s repaired. Each time it flexes, the crack grows, and it can start to leak underneath.
