Surface repairs across SO14

About bath repair in SO14

We repair just the damaged spot and colour-match it to the bath, which is far cheaper than replacing a fitted bath. Most baths can be used again the day after. Typical jobs include cracks in an acrylic bath and scuffs and scratches in the surface, in whirlpool & spa baths, cast iron enamel and pressed steel enamel.

It’s a tidy, low-fuss visit. We confirm the time with you beforehand, cover and mask the work area, and get on with the job, which usually takes two to three hours for most chips. If anything looks different from your photos, we will talk to you before going ahead.

  1. First, the area is cleaned and any loose enamel or rust is removed.
  2. We fill the damage and sand it flush with the surrounding surface.
  3. We mix the colour on the day to match your bath’s exact shade.
  4. We apply the finish coats and polish the repair so it blends in.
  5. Once it has cured, usually by the following day, the bath is ready to use.

Local landmarks in Inner Avenue

Our customers here include homes close to Rockstone Place Park, The Guide Dog pub and Bevois Town Primary School. Also close by are St Mary's Independent School (1.4 miles east), St Anne's Catholic School (within half a mile south-west) and Saint Mary's (under half a mile north-west). For rail, the closest station is St Denys station, about 0.6 miles north-east. A little further out are Royal South Hants Hospital (under half a mile south-east) and Marlands Shopping Centre (0.8 miles south). The countryside around Inner Avenue includes Netley Common.

Honest limits

It helps to know what we cannot do too:

  • Metal that has corroded all the way through
  • Flexing caused by a failed cradle or loose feet
  • Wear across the entire surface, which needs re-enamelling

Why repair rather than replace?

Replacing a fitted bath normally means a plumber, removing the old bath, making good the tiles and panel and disposing of the old one. A repair deals only with the damage in one visit.

What your quote should include

  • The length of the guarantee and what it covers
  • Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?
  • Who turns up on the day
  • Aftercare advice

Signs you need bath repair

Glass and heavy bottles cause more chips than anything else. Taps and wastes cause problems too: water sits around them, and any chip there soon rusts.

Contact us if you’ve noticed any of these:

  • A chipped rim or side
  • Deep scratches in acrylic
  • A kit repair that didn’t last
  • Hairline or through cracks in acrylic

What bath repair costs

Repairs from £95. Prices are worked out job by job. What matters most is:

  • How hard the colour is to match
  • How much damage there is
  • The material and finish
  • Whether we combine several jobs

Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. Damage, material and access decide it, and doing several items at once reduces it.

Getting a price from photos

Phone pictures are fine, there is no need for anything special. Just ensure we can see:

  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates

Call 0345 017 0787 or use the quote form. With one close-up and one wider picture, we can give you a fixed quote without visiting.

For landlords and businesses

We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, fixing chips and scratches before handover so nothing needs replacing. We’re CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.

Hospitality businesses can’t afford rooms out of action for long, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We will fit around changeovers where we can.

FAQs for SO14

Will I be able to see the repair?

We aim for a repair you can’t easily find. How well it disappears depends on the condition of the rest of the bath.

Is there a call-out fee?

No. Our quotes include travel, with the same prices everywhere we work.

Do you work for landlords and businesses?

Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as householders.

Do you hold any accreditations?

Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.

How soon can you come?

That depends on our diary for your area. Send photos with your postcode and we’ll reply with the earliest dates.

Do I have to be there?

Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time that suits you.

Do you repair coloured baths?

Yes. We mix the colour on the day to match, including pastel and older colours.
