Landlords, agents and businesses in Bapton
We are used to working with agents and managing companies. Send the address, pictures and access details.
Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.
Aftercare tips
To keep it looking its best:
- Store metal items away from the bath
- Ensure an acrylic bath is firm underfoot
- Clean with warm water and a mild detergent
- Fix dripping taps early to stop staining and limescale
For the first few days, keep heavy bottles off the repaired spot. After that, normal gentle cleaning is fine without abrasive products.
If water is getting through a crack, stop using the bath. Leaks under a bath can damage floors and ceilings.
What happens on the day
On the day itself, there’s little for you to do. Let us in and show us the room, and we will take it from there. The job generally runs to a few hours, depending on the damage, including clearing up.
- We start by cleaning the damage and taking out loose enamel and rust.
- Next we fill the damage and sand it smooth and level.
- We tint the finish on the day to suit your bath’s shade of white or colour.
- We apply the finish coats and polish the repair so it blends in.
- The repair is left to cure, and most baths can be used the following day.
Before we arrive
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
- Let us know if it has been repaired before
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible

Repairing versus replacing in Bapton
When the bath is otherwise sound, repairing beats replacing. It costs less, takes less time and causes far less upheaval, and the bathroom stays as it is. If the entire surface is worn, re-enamelling may make more sense, and we’ll tell you. Our bath repair starts from £95. The price depends on the type and amount of damage, the material and how many items we do on one visit. You get a fixed quote from your pictures, so there are no surprises on the day.

Take a look at our pricing and bath cost comparison.
Can I fix it myself?
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. 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’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, make sure the area is clean and completely dry, and give it the full curing time. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.
Bapton: your questions answered
What does bath repair cost?
Prices start from £95. We give a fixed quote from your pictures. Send a close-up and a picture of the entire item with your BA12 postcode.
Is it messy?
Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we leave the room clean.
Can I get a quote without a visit?
Usually, yes. Clear pictures let us give you a fixed quote without visiting.
What if the damage is worse than the pictures show?
Your quote covers the damage in the pictures. If there’s more, we’ll tell you before starting.
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
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.
Will I be able to see the repair?
We aim for a repair you cannot easily find. How well it disappears depends on the condition of the rest of the bath, and we will tell you what to expect.
Can you repair several things at once?
Of course, and it normally saves money. Send pictures of everything together and we’ll quote them together.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
In most cases, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. If it isn’t worth repairing, we will tell you.
What we cannot put right
We won’t take on work that will not last, so here’s what a repair cannot put right:
- Wear across the whole surface, which needs re-enamelling
- Rust that has eaten right through a steel bath
- A bath that flexes because its feet or cradle have failed (that needs fixing first)
Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly before you book.
