About bath repair in SO24
A repair fixes just the damaged area and blends it into the rest of the bath, which is far cheaper than replacing a fitted bath and the tiles around it. Most baths can be used again the day after. We regularly repair pressed steel enamel, roll-top & freestanding and acrylic, and people most frequently call us about a failed DIY repair that’s discoloured or lifting and rust spots around the plughole.
Your technician turns up when we said we would, introduces themselves and looks over the damage before anything else. Dust sheets and masking tape go down before any work starts. Most visits take a morning or an afternoon, and the room is left clean and tidy.
- First, we check the damage against your pictures and agree the plan.
- Loose enamel, rust and dirt are removed so the repair can bond.
- We build up the filler in layers, shaping it to the bath.
- The colour is tinted by hand until it matches.
- Finally, it’s polished to match the shine and left to cure.
Pricing in SO24
Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Compared with replacing, a repair is normally a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. The quote lists exactly what you’re paying for.
Why book with us
- Typically one visit, start to finish
- CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited
- Dust sheets down, tidy finish
- A year’s guarantee on all work
How to get a price
You do not need a survey visit. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we will come back to you with a fixed figure.
Around New Alresford
Locally, our jobs take us to homes close to Church of St John the Baptist, The Running Horse Public House and Perins School. A little further out are Barton Castle (4.3 miles north-east). Green spaces nearby include Shutts Copse.
Aftercare tips
Once the work has cured, treat it gently:
- If an acrylic bath flexes, have its feet adjusted
- Put a towel in the bath if you are working above it
- Have new chips seen to early
- Do not scrub with anything abrasive
Keep metal objects like razors and cans off the surface, because they can mark the enamel. A dripping tap should be fixed early, too.
If an acrylic bath has a crack, stop showering in it until it’s repaired. Each time it flexes, the crack grows, and water can get through to the floor below.
Repair or replace?
Replacing a bath rarely stops at the bath: the tiles sitting on the rim tend to break, the panel may not fit the new one, and a plumber has to disconnect and reconnect everything. Repairing the damage avoids all of that.
What your quote should include
- Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT
- What preparation is included
- What the guarantee covers, and for how long
- How the colour is matched
DIY kit or professional repair?
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is usually cheaper.
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.
How we price bath repair
Repairs from £95. We give every job a fixed price from pictures. These are the things that affect it:
- Unusual colours or finishes
- What the surface is made of
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- How many items we do on one visit
Instead of hourly rates, we price the whole job up front. Damage, material and access decide it, and doing several items at once reduces it.
Getting a price from photos
Before you send pictures, a few simple things make all the difference:
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- What it’s made of, if you know
- Where you are, by postcode
No survey visit is needed: we price from photos. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through.
When we would advise against a repair
A few problems are outside what a surface repair can do:
- Metal that has corroded all the way through
- Leaking fittings, which need a plumber
- A bath that moves underfoot, until its support is fixed
FAQs for SO24
Can I get a quote without a visit?
In nearly every case. If photos do not show enough, we’ll ask for another angle.
Is the work guaranteed?
Every repair comes with our one-year guarantee. We will explain what it covers when we quote.
Do you cover SO24?
Yes, we do. We send a technician to SO24 for every job, and the price is the same as everywhere else.
Can tenants book a repair?
We can work for tenants, landlords or agents. Get your landlord’s agreement first.
When can I have a bath again?
Most baths can be used the following day. We’ll tell you the exact curing time when we finish.
How do I book?
Some pictures, your postcode and how to reach you. On the day, we only need access to the room.
Will you leave a mess?
Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and we clean up when we’ve finished.
