Bath repair in Winterborne Whitechurch without replacing anything
Bath repair is our most common job. A chip by the taps, a crack in the base and a rust spot by the plughole are all repaired in place, normally in one visit. Common call-outs are for damage done while the bathroom was being fitted and a chip where the taps sit, in cast iron enamel, roll-top & freestanding and pressed steel enamel.
We stand behind the work with a one-year guarantee, so you’re not left on your own once we’ve gone.

What bath repair costs
Prices start from £95. You will know the full cost before booking. We look at:
- Access to the area
- The colour and finish to match
- The type of damage
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
A repair is priced on what needs doing, not your postcode. You’ll see the full price before booking.

Phone pictures are fine, there is no need for anything special. Just ensure we can see:
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- Any earlier repairs or coatings

Should I try a DIY kit first?
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is generally the cheaper route.
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. 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.
Materials and what they mean for the repair
Acrylic
Acrylic feels warm and is light, but it relies on good support. Repairs to cracks are reinforced from the back.
Cast iron
Cast iron baths are thick and very strong, 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.
Keeping it looking good
Once the work has cured, treat it gently:
- Give the bath a quick rinse after use
- A dripping tap stains enamel, so fix it early
- Ensure an acrylic bath is firm underfoot
- Have new chips seen to early
Treat the repaired area like the rest of the bath: a soft cloth and washing-up liquid is all it needs. Avoid scourers and gritty cream cleaners.
Do not leave a chip on a steel or cast iron bath. Once water reaches the metal, rust begins, and a rust spot is a bigger repair than a clean chip.
Questions from Winterborne Whitechurch
It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?
Generally, yes. We remove the old repair before doing a new one.
Will there be a smell?
A little, depending on the job. Open windows and an extractor fan help, and it soon fades.
Can pets and children be at home?
Yes, as long as they stay out of the room we are working in. We’ll tell you when the room can be used again.
Are you accredited?
We are accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.
What if the damage is worse than the photos show?
If we find something the pictures didn’t show, we explain it first. You decide whether to go ahead.
How much does bath repair cost in Winterborne Whitechurch?
Repairs from £95. The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from pictures. You will get a fixed figure before you book.
Can you quote from pictures?
Yes, almost always. Clear pictures let us give you a fixed price without visiting.
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
Yes. Ask your landlord first, and we can send them the quote if that helps.
Repair or replace: which is better?
Swapping a damaged bath for a new one usually means a plumber, lifting out the old bath, making good the tiles and panel and disposing of the old one. Repairing it deals only with the damage in a single visit. Prices start from £95. Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Send photos and we will give you the exact figure.
