Bath repair in Backwell Common, done in place
Whatever has happened to the bath, we aim for the same result: a repair that’s smooth, sound and hard to spot. We prepare the area properly, fill and shape it, then match the colour and gloss so it sits flush with the rest of the bath. Our repair technicians work on acrylic, roll-top & freestanding and cast iron enamel, and the jobs we see most are chips under the taps and damage done while the bathroom was being fitted.
Every job is backed for twelve months, and the guarantee is the same wherever you live. We return to put right any problem with the work.

Can I fix it myself?
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, make sure the area is clean and completely dry, and give it the full curing time. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.
Repair or replace in Backwell Common?
A new bath brings a chain of other jobs: the tiles sitting on the rim tend to break, the panel may not fit the new one, and the plumbing has to be disconnected and refitted. A repair skips all of it. Prices start from £95. Every job is a little different, so each one is priced on its own. The size and type of damage, the material and access all play a part, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

When we would advise against a repair
Not everything can be repaired, and we would rather say so up front. We cannot fix:
- Cracks in acrylic we cannot reach from underneath
- A bath worn all over, where resurfacing makes more sense
- Flexing caused by a failed cradle or loose feet
Send us photos and we will tell you honestly.

Do you need bath repair in Backwell Common?
Rust generally starts where water sits, around the waste, under the taps or in an old chip. Water on bare metal causes rust that creeps under the surrounding enamel.
Send us a picture if you notice any of these:
- A kit repair that didn’t last
- Rusty patches near the plughole
- Damage beneath the taps
- Hairline or through cracks in acrylic

Keeping it looking good
To keep it looking its best for years:
- Put a towel in the bath if you are working above it
- A dripping tap stains enamel, so fix it early
- Do not scrub with anything abrasive
- Get any new chip repaired before it rusts
Treat the repaired area like the rest of the bath: warm water, washing-up liquid and a soft cloth. Keep scouring pads and gritty cleaners away from it.
Until we visit, a strip of waterproof tape over the damage helps, so water can’t get in. Take it off before we arrive.
Landlords, agents and businesses in Backwell Common
Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, fixing chips and scratches before handover. We are CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.
Rental properties take more wear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.
What happens on the day
The work is clean and fairly quiet. We protect the area first, then the job itself takes two to three hours for most chips. Before we leave, we explain the curing time and the aftercare.
- Dust sheets and masking go down around the bath.
- The damaged area is cleaned, keyed and degreased, and any rust is treated.
- We fill it, let it set, then sand it flush.
- We match both the colour and the shine.
- We tidy up and tell you when the bath can be used, normally the next day.
How to prepare
- Open a window if you can
- Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
- Tell us about parking, stairs or access
How to get a price
There is no need for us to visit first. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed price.
Advice
Different materials, different repairs
Composite and resin
Composite baths are dense and solid. Chips and scratches are filled and matched, in much the same way.
Acrylic
Acrylic feels warm and is light, but it relies on good support. Cracks are strengthened from behind before the front is finished.
Common questions in Backwell Common
What information do you need?
Just pictures, your postcode and a contact number. On the day, we only need access to the room.
Will the price change on the day?
Your quote covers the damage in the photos. Anything extra is discussed before we begin.
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
Yes. Ask your landlord first, and we can send them the quote if that helps.
Do I need to be at home?
Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time we agree with you.
Are you a vetted contractor?
Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.
Is it messy?
We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and we clean up when we have finished.
How quickly can you book me in?
Your quote comes with available dates. If it’s urgent, say so and we’ll do what we can.
How invisible is a bath repair?
On a glossy bath, you will struggle to find it. On older, dull enamel the repair can look glossier than the area around it.
