Our bath repair service in SO30
We have repaired just about every kind of bath damage: chips from dropped bottles, rust round the plughole, cracks in acrylic and holes from falling tools. Each is repaired in place with a one-year guarantee. Typical jobs include rust by the waste and overflow and scratches you can feel with a fingernail, across roll-top & freestanding, cast iron enamel and pressed steel enamel.
We agree an arrival time beforehand, so you are not left guessing. Once we’re there, the work takes a morning or an afternoon in most cases. The room is left tidy and ready to use once it has cured.
- We start by looking at the damage and confirming the plan with you.
- Any rust and loose material comes out, and the area is degreased.
- 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.

When we’d advise against a repair
We will not take on work that won’t last, so these are the limits:
- A steel bath rusted through
- Wear across the entire surface, which needs re-enamelling
- A bath that moves underfoot, until its support is fixed
Repairs by material
Pressed steel
Pressed steel is thinner and lighter, with an enamel finish like cast iron. Exposed steel rusts fast, particularly by the plughole, so early repairs matter.
Cast iron
A cast iron bath is heavy enough that most people never want to move it. Only the enamel surface wears or chips, and that’s the part we put right.
For landlords and businesses
If you manage property in SO30, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Just send photos for each address and we’ll come back with a combined price.
We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Just send photos, the address and how to get access and we’ll arrange it.
How the damage happens
Nearly all the chips we see start with something being dropped: a shampoo bottle, a shower head, a tile or a tool during a refit. On enamelled baths, any chip down to the metal will start to rust.
Most people contact us after spotting one of these:
- A hole punched through by something heavy
- A chip where the taps sit
- Rusty patches near the plughole
- Scuffs and scratches in the surface
What bath repair costs
Repairs from £95. We do not charge extra for travel to SO30. The price comes down to:
- What the surface is made of
- Unusual colours or finishes
- How much damage there is
- The type of damage
A few things move the price: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.
Getting a price from pictures
Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what to send:
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- A picture taken from further back
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- Details of any past repairs
For a price in SO30, photos are the quickest way: a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode. We reply with a fixed quote and our next available dates.
SO30 questions
Do I need to be at home?
We need someone to let us in. You do not need to watch us work.
Can you repair several things at once?
Yes, and it’s frequently cheaper. Just add the extra items to your pictures and we will quote them together.
Can rust on a bath be repaired?
Yes, very frequently. The rust is cut back to clean metal and sealed before we fill and finish it.
Is a bath repair permanent?
It should, as long as the bath is firm and the area was prepared well. It’s covered by our one-year guarantee.
I tried a repair kit. Can you fix it?
Yes, we do this frequently. We strip it out, deal with any rust and repair it again.
How long before I can use the bath?
Most baths can be used the next day. We’ll tell you the exact curing time when we finish.
Will you leave a mess?
No. The work area is masked and covered, and we leave the room clean.
