Bath repair at your home in PO3
Whatever has happened to the bath, we aim for the same result: a repair that’s smooth, sound and hard to spot. We prepare the area properly, fill and shape it, then match the colour and gloss so it’s level with the surrounding surface. Typical jobs include a cracked acrylic bath and chips along the edge of the bath, on roll-top & freestanding, acrylic and cast iron enamel.
When we visit, the technician arrives at the agreed time, protects the room with dust sheets and masking and gets started. Expect it to take a few hours. We tidy up before we leave and let you know when you can use it again.
- We clean the area and remove any loose enamel or rust.
- We fill the damage and sand it flush with the surrounding surface.
- We mix the colour on the day to match your bath’s exact shade.
- We apply the finish coats and polish the repair so it blends in.
- The repair is left to cure, and most baths can be used the following day.

Prices start from £95. Instead of hourly rates, we fix the price before we start. Damage, material and access decide it, and combining items on one visit brings it down.

Landmarks near Baffins
Typical jobs here are in homes near The Baffins pub, St Edmund's Catholic School and Miltoncross Academy, among other places. Other local landmarks include Church of St Cuthbert (under half a mile west), Langstone Junior Academy (under half a mile south) and Alexandra Park (1.7 miles north-west). The nearest railway station is Fratton station, about 1 mile south-west of the centre. Other landmarks nearby include Southsea Castle (2.4 miles south-west) and Southsea (2.3 miles south-west). For a walk, there’s Portsdown Hill and Milton Locks.
Keeping it looking good
How the surface is treated afterwards matters. Here’s what we suggest:
- Keep abrasive pads and gritty cleaners away from the bath
- Get any new chip repaired before it rusts
- Get a dripping tap fixed promptly
- Clean with warm water and a mild detergent
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.
If water is getting through a crack, stop using the bath until it’s repaired. Water under the bath can damage the floor and the ceiling below.
Common problems we fix in PO3
The usual cause is something heavy dropped into the bath, and a lot happen during bathroom refits. Cracks in acrylic have a different cause: the bath isn’t properly supported, so it flexes under weight.
Clients normally contact us about:
- Scuffs and scratches in the surface
- A failed DIY repair that’s discoloured or lifting
- A hole punched through by something heavy
- A cracked acrylic bath
When we’d advise against a repair
To be straight with you, some problems need a different fix:
- A bath worn all over, where resurfacing makes more sense
- Leaking fittings, which need a plumber
- Acrylic cracks with no access behind them
Why repair rather than replace?
Replacing a bath rarely stops at the bath: tiles along the rim usually crack when it comes out, a new panel is often needed, and a plumber has to disconnect and reconnect everything. A repair skips all of it.
Questions to ask before booking
- Who will actually do the work
- How soon you can use it again
- What protection goes down before work starts
- How changes to the job are handled
Should I try a DIY kit first?
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.
Common questions in PO3
Can you price it without visiting?
Yes, almost always. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed quote.
How long does the repair take to cure?
Most baths can be used the day after. We will tell you the exact curing time when we finish.
Can a cracked acrylic bath be fixed?
Often, yes, if we can reach the underside to reinforce it. Take off the bath panel and check, or send us a photo.
Are you a vetted contractor?
Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.
Is the work guaranteed?
Yes: twelve months. If there’s a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.
How much does bath repair cost in PO3?
Repairs from £95. We give a fixed price based on pictures of the damage. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo and your postcode.
Is it safe with children and pets around?
Yes, as long as they stay out of the room we are working in. We will let you know when it’s safe to use again.
