Should I try a DIY kit first?
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully and work on a clean, dry surface, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.
Bath repair in Allaston without replacing anything
It pays to repair bath damage while it’s small. Exposed metal on enamelled baths soon rusts, and on acrylic, a crack keeps spreading while the bath flexes. Repairing it stops the damage getting worse. Common call-outs are for a chipped rim or side and damage done while the bathroom was being fitted, across roll-top & freestanding, whirlpool & spa baths and pressed steel enamel.
All of our repairs are guaranteed for twelve months, and the guarantee is the same wherever you live. We return to put right any problem with the work.

When we would advise against a repair
A repair is not right for every job, for example:
- Leaks from the waste or overflow fittings (a plumber’s job)
- Wear across the entire surface, which needs re-enamelling
- A bath that flexes because its feet or cradle have failed (that needs fixing first)
If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think.

What we do, step by step
There’s not much you need to do on the day. Show us the job, point us to the room, and we’ll take it from there. The job generally runs to a few hours, tidy-up included.
- Dust sheets and masking go down around the bath.
- The damaged area is cleaned, keyed and degreased, and any rust is treated.
- Filler goes in and is sanded flush once it has set.
- Colour and gloss are matched to the surrounding surface.
- We tidy up and tell you when the bath can be used, generally the day after.
Preparing for the visit
- Have a window or extractor fan available
- Clear the area around the damage
- Point us to the nearest place to park

Repairing versus replacing in Allaston
A new bath costs more than the bath itself: removal and disposal, plumbing, a new panel, tiling and decorating. With a repair, it’s one visit and one price. Our bath repair starts from £95. Instead of hourly rates, we price the whole job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and combining items on one visit brings it down.
Why us?
- Honest advice, even when it means no job
- No need to remove anything
- Fixed prices from your photos
- CHAS and Constructionline accredited

Your questions about bath repair in Allaston
Can you match an avocado or pink bath?
Yes, coloured baths are no problem. The colour is tinted by hand on the day.
How soon can you come?
That depends on our diary for your area. We will offer you dates when we send your quote.
Are there extra charges for Allaston?
We do not add a call-out fee. The fixed price covers the visit and the work.
Is repairing better than replacing?
In most cases, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. If it is not worth repairing, we will tell you.
Is a bath repair permanent?
Done properly, a repair lasts for years, and ours come with a one-year guarantee. Gentle cleaning helps it last.
I rent my home. Can I book you?
Yes, but check with your landlord or agent first. Many landlords are happy for a repair to be arranged before the end of a tenancy.
How do I book?
Send photos through the quote form or call 0345 017 0787.
Can pets and children be at home?
Just keep them out of the work area. We’ll tell you when the room can be used again.
Prices and what affects them
Repairs from £95. We price every job individually. The main factors are:
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- The colour and finish to match
- Whether we combine several jobs
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
Compared with replacing, a repair is generally a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.
Send pictures for a quote
You can normally get a fixed price without us visiting. To make it quick:
- Where you are, by postcode
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
For most jobs, pictures are all we need to give you a price. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.

Aftercare tips
Aftercare is simple, and it makes a real difference:
- Avoid scourers, wire wool and gritty cream cleaners
- Store metal items away from the bath
- Protect the bath with a towel when doing jobs nearby
- Fix dripping taps early to stop staining and limescale
Keep metal objects like razors and cans off the surface, as they can leave rust marks. And fix dripping taps promptly.
Stop using the bath if a crack lets water through. Leaks under a bath can damage floors and ceilings.
Materials and what they mean for the repair
Acrylic
Acrylic baths are moulded sheet reinforced underneath. There is no rust, but cracks, holes and scratches happen, and cracks need support from behind to stay fixed.
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.
