Bath repair in Backwell Green without replacing anything
It pays to repair bath damage while it’s small. On steel and cast iron, exposed metal starts to rust, and on acrylic, a crack keeps spreading while the bath flexes. A repair stops both. Common call-outs are for damage beneath the taps and an old repair that has yellowed or come loose, across roll-top & freestanding, pressed steel enamel and whirlpool & spa baths.
Peace of mind is built in: each job carries a one-year guarantee, and we explain what it covers before you book.

Backwell Green: your questions answered
When can I have a bath again?
Generally within a day, depending on the repair.
Can I get a quote without a visit?
Nearly always. If photos don’t show enough, we’ll ask for another angle.
Do I have to be there?
We need someone to let us in. After that, you can carry on with your day.
Do you repair coloured baths?
Yes. We mix the colour on the day to match, including pastel and older colours.
What if the damage is worse than the photos show?
We’ll show you and explain before doing anything extra. You will not be charged for anything you haven’t agreed.
Can pets and children be at home?
On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children.
Is a repair better than a new one?
Generally, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. If it isn’t worth repairing, we’ll tell you.
What happens after I send pictures?
We look at the pictures and reply with a fixed quote and some dates. If anything’s unclear, we will ask for another photo.
Landlord and trade work in Backwell Green
Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover, so there’s no need to replace a damaged item at the last minute. We can visit several plots in one trip to keep costs down.
Hospitality businesses need rooms back in use quickly, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We’ll fit around changeovers where we can.
What we’re called out for in Backwell Green
Rust tends to begin where water collects, around the waste, under the taps or in an old chip. Water on bare metal causes rust that creeps under the surrounding enamel.
If you can see any of these, send us a picture:
- Deep scratches in acrylic
- Damage done while the bathroom was being fitted
- Chips under the taps
- Chips on the rim or sides
What to look for in a quote
- Who will actually do the work
- If travel is included in the price
- How the room is protected while they work
- Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price
Keeping it looking good
Looking after the surface is easy, and it makes a real difference:
- Stick to mild cleaners and a soft cloth
- Protect the bath with a towel when doing jobs nearby
- Have new chips seen to early
- A dripping tap stains enamel, so fix it early
Clean with mild, non-abrasive cleaners and avoid dropping heavy items on the repaired area. Get any new chip seen to quickly, before rust sets in.
Stop using the bath if a crack lets water through. Leaks under a bath can damage floors and ceilings.
DIY repairs versus a professional job
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is normally the cheaper route.
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.
What bath repair costs
Repairs from £95. There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price is based on:
- The colour and finish to match
- What the surface is made of
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- Access to the area
Every job is a little different, so each one is priced on its own. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all play a part, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.
Quotes from your photos
The better the pictures, the more accurate the price. Here’s what we find most useful:
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- Any details about the material
We price from photos so you do not have to wait in for a survey. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through, and we’ll come back with a fixed figure.
When we would advise against a repair
Before you book, it’s worth knowing the limits:
- A bath worn all over, where resurfacing makes more sense
- A bath that flexes because its feet or cradle have failed (that needs fixing first)
- Leaks from the waste or overflow fittings (a plumber’s job)
If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think before booking.
What we work on
- Roll-top & freestanding
- Pressed steel enamel
- Cast iron enamel
- Acrylic
- Whirlpool & spa baths
Materials and what they mean for the repair
Composite and resin
Stone resin and composite baths are heavy and solid. Chips and scratches are filled and matched, just like other baths.
Acrylic
Acrylic baths are moulded sheet reinforced underneath. There’s no rust, but cracks, holes and scratches happen, and a crack only stays repaired if it’s supported underneath.
How the visit works
On the day itself, there’s little for you to do. Show us the job, point us to the room, and we will take it from there. Most visits take a morning or an afternoon.
- We protect the bath and the floor around it.
- We clean, key and degrease the damage, 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 clear up and give you the curing time, normally until the next day.
Preparing for the visit
- Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
- Let us know about parking or access
- Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
How to get a price
For most jobs, photos are all we need to give you a price. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we will send back a fixed quote and some dates.
