Bath repair across BH5: what to expect
Repairing baths is what we do most. A chip by the taps, a crack in the base and a rust spot by the plughole are all fixed without removing the bath, usually in a single visit. We are frequently asked to fix a chip where the taps sit and an old repair that has yellowed or come loose, in cast iron enamel, roll-top & freestanding and acrylic.
From the moment we arrive, we keep the work contained to the one room. Surfaces nearby are masked off, the job takes a few hours, depending on the damage, depending on what we find, and we finish by cleaning up and talking you through the result.
- We clean the area and remove any loose enamel or rust.
- The chip or crack is filled, then sanded level with the bath.
- We tint the finish on the day to suit your bath’s shade of white or colour.
- Finish coats go on, then the repair is polished to blend in.
- Once it has cured, normally by the next day, the bath is ready to use.
Pricing in BH5
Our bath repair starts from £95. A repair usually costs much less than people expect, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Send photos and we will give you the exact figure.

- Parks and local facilities nearby include Bournemouth (1.7 miles south-west)
Keeping it looking good
After the repair has cured, a few habits help it last:
- Fix dripping taps early to stop staining and limescale
- Check that an acrylic bath does not move when you stand in it
- Keep abrasive pads and gritty cleaners away from the bath
- Clean with warm water and a mild detergent
Leave the repair to cure for as long as we say before running a bath. From then on, mild cleaning is all it needs.
Avoid standing in a cracked acrylic bath until it’s fixed. Each time it flexes, the crack grows, and it can start to leak underneath.
Repairs by material
Composite and resin
Composite baths are dense and solid. Chips and scratches are filled and matched, in much the same way.
Pressed steel
Steel baths and trays have a thin metal body under the enamel. Exposed steel rusts quickly, so we treat and seal the metal before filling.
When a repair is not the answer
In fairness, there are a few things a repair will not fix:
- A whole bath that is dull or worn, where a full re-enamel is the better fix
- A bath that moves underfoot, until its support is fixed
- Water coming from the waste or taps rather than the bath
What bath repair costs
Repairs from £95. You’ll know the full cost before booking. We look at:
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- How much damage there is
- What the surface is made of
- How easy the damage is to reach
Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. Damage, material and access decide it, and combining items on one visit brings it down.
Getting a price from pictures
Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what to send:
- Natural light rather than flash
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- Where you are, by postcode
Pricing is simple: snap the damage close up and then the whole item, send them over with your postcode, and you will get a fixed price back. There is no charge for the quote and you’re under no obligation.
Common problems we fix in BH5
Many chips happen while the bathroom is being fitted. Tools, tiles and fittings get dropped into the bath, often before anyone notices. We repair snagging damage like this regularly.
Send us a picture if you notice any of these:
- Chips along the edge of the bath
- A cracked acrylic bath
- Rust by the waste and overflow
- Snagging damage from a refit
BH5: your questions answered
What happens if you find more damage?
We stop, show you and agree any change before carrying on. Nothing extra is done without your say-so.
I rent my home. Can I book you?
Yes, but check with your landlord or agent first. Many landlords are happy for a repair to be arranged before the end of a tenancy.
How soon can you come?
We’ll give you dates with your quote. Tell us if you need it done quickly.
What does bath repair cost?
Repairs from £95. Because every job differs, we price from pictures. You know the full cost before anything is booked.
Is repairing better than replacing?
In most cases, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. If it is not worth repairing, we’ll tell you.
Is the work guaranteed?
Every repair comes with a one-year guarantee. We will explain what it covers when we quote.
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
Please keep children and pets out of the room during the visit. Everywhere else in the home is fine.
