Surface repairs across SO22

Bath repair at your home in SO22

A typical bath repair is a few hours’ work, and the bath is back in use the following day. You won’t need a plumber or tiler, because the bath doesn’t move. Our technicians work on pressed steel enamel, whirlpool & spa baths and acrylic, and people most often call us about scratches you can feel with a fingernail and rust by the waste and overflow.

Here’s how a visit usually runs: we arrive at the agreed slot, sheet and mask the area around the job, carry out the work and tidy away. Allow a few hours, depending on the damage. Before leaving, we tell you how long to leave it and what to avoid for the first few days.

  1. We clean the area and remove any loose enamel or rust.
  2. Next we fill the damage and sand it smooth and level.
  3. The colour is mixed on the spot to match your bath.
  4. We build up the finish and polish it into the surrounding enamel.
  5. The repair is left to cure, and most baths can be used the following day.

What’s near Winchester

In Winchester, that means homes near St Bede Church of England Primary School, Leigh House Hospital and Peter Symonds College. You will also find St. Cross Park (1 mile south), St Swithun-upon-Kingsgate Church (less than half a mile east) and The Green Man pub (within half a mile north-west).

Green spaces nearby include Winnall Moors and Twyford Down.

Prices and what affects them

Repairs from £95. You won’t pay by the hour. The price is based on:

  • Access to the area
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • What the surface is made of
  • The type of damage

No two jobs are quite the same, so we price each one individually. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all make a difference, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

Send photos for a quote

When you take your pictures, these tips help us give you a firm price:

  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • The material, if you know it

For a price in SO22, photos are the quickest way: one close up, one from further back, plus your postcode. You will get a fixed quote with dates to choose from.

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Composite and resin

Stone resin and composite baths are heavy and solid. Chips and scratches are filled and matched, just like other baths.

Acrylic

An acrylic bath is a moulded sheet strengthened from below. There’s no rust, but cracks, holes and scratches happen, and cracks need support from behind to stay fixed.

What we’re called out for in SO22

Acrylic baths that crack nearly always have a support problem. Loose legs, no proper cradle or a floor that gives let the bath move until it cracks.

Common reasons people in SO22 contact us include:

  • A kit repair that didn’t last
  • Rust spots around the plughole
  • Scratches you can feel with a fingernail
  • A cracked acrylic bath

Can I fix it myself?

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.

We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.

When we would advise against a repair

A repair is not always the answer, and we would rather say so up front. We can’t fix:

  • Metal that has corroded all the way through
  • Cracks in parts of an acrylic bath we cannot get to from below
  • Leaking fittings, which need a plumber

SO22: your questions answered

Do you come to SO22?

Yes. We work across the UK and travel to SO22 and the rest of Hampshire. Send photos and we’ll quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

What areas do you cover?

All of Hampshire, and the rest of the UK. There is no extra charge for travel.

Will the repair show?

We aim for a repair you cannot easily find. The rest of the bath’s condition makes a difference, and we will tell you what to expect.

Do you repair coloured baths?

Yes. The colour is mixed on site to suit your bath, including pastel and older colours.

Will there be a smell?

Some materials have a smell while they’re applied, so we ventilate the room. It clears as the materials cure.

What happens next?

We look at the photos and reply with a fixed price and some dates. If anything’s unclear, we’ll ask for another photo.

What if the damage is worse than the photos show?

We stop, show you and agree any change before carrying on. You won’t be charged for anything you haven’t agreed.
