Bath repair at your home in SP7
A damaged bath does not have to mean a new bathroom. Our repair technicians fill, shape and refinish the damage, mixing the colour on the day so the repair is hard to spot. Common call-outs are for chips caused by builders and cracks in an acrylic bath, across cast iron enamel, pressed steel enamel and roll-top & freestanding.
Your technician turns up when we said we would, introduces themselves and checks the damage against your pictures first. Dust sheets and masking tape go down before any work starts. Most visits take a few hours, and we leave the room as we found it.
- 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.
- The damage is filled in layers and shaped to the curve of the bath.
- The colour is tinted by hand until it matches.
- Finally, it’s polished to match the shine and left to cure.
What it costs in SP7
Prices start from £95. Rather than charging by the hour, we price the whole job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access.

You will also find Roman Catholic Church of St Edward the Martyr (less than half a mile south-west) and St Mary's School (1 mile east). Shaftesbury’s nearest station is Gillingham (Dorset) station, about 4.1 miles north-west.

Should I try a DIY kit first?
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, it’s worth having it done properly.
Landlord and trade work in SP7
Letting agents frequently send us pictures straight from the inventory. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.
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.
What a repair cannot fix
In fairness, some problems need a different fix:
- A whole bath that’s dull or worn, where a full re-enamel is the better fix
- A steel bath rusted through
- Leaking fittings, which need a plumber
What we are called out for in SP7
Baths take more knocks than people expect: bottles, shower heads and razors are dropped every day, and fittings press hard against the enamel. Sooner or later, most baths pick up a chip.
Signs it’s time to call us include:
- Chips along the edge of the bath
- Deep scratches in acrylic
- Damage beneath the taps
- Impact holes in acrylic
Repair or replace?
Replacing a bath rarely stops at the bath: tiles along the rim generally crack when it comes out, 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
- A fixed price, and whether VAT is included
- What prep work is covered
- How long it needs to cure
- What happens if the damage is worse than the photos show
SP7: your questions answered
Can you fix rust around the plughole?
Yes, very frequently. We take it back to sound metal, seal it, fill it and match the colour.
What information do you need?
Photos of the damage, a picture of the entire bath and your postcode. After that, we just agree a date.
Is it safe with children and pets around?
We ask you to keep children and pets out of the room while we work. The rest of the house is unaffected.
Does someone need to be in?
Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. After that, you can carry on with your day.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
Typically, when the rest is in good condition. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. We’ll tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.
Do you repair coloured baths?
Yes, coloured baths are no problem. We tint the finish to your bath on site.
Will it make a mess?
No. The work area is masked and covered, and we leave the room clean.
