Bath Repair in Berkeley
Bath repair for Berkeley, without a refit. Send us photos for a fixed price, then we come to you.
- Repairs from £95
- Chips on the rim or sides
- Chips under the taps
What bath repair costs
Prices start from £95. A fixed quote means you know the cost before booking. We look at:
- The type of damage
- Doing more than one item at once
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- How hard the colour is to match
There are no surprise extras on the day. The price we quote from your photos is the price you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.
How to get a fixed price
We price nearly every job from photos. This is what to send:
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- What it’s made of, if you know
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- One sharp close-up of the damage
Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: take one close-up and one wider shot of the bath, add your postcode and send them over. You will get a fixed price, not an estimate.
Bath repair at your home in Berkeley
Whether your bath is steel, cast iron or acrylic, we can repair it. Each material is repaired a little differently: rust is treated on metal baths, while cracks in acrylic are reinforced from underneath. We work on roll-top & freestanding, acrylic and cast iron enamel, and people most frequently call us about chips caused by builders and cracks in an acrylic bath.
Every repair comes with a one-year guarantee.

Materials and what they mean for the repair
Cast iron
Cast iron baths are thick and very strong, finished with fired enamel. Chips can rust if left, but the bath itself lasts for generations, which makes it well worth repairing.
Acrylic
An acrylic bath is a moulded sheet strengthened from below. There is no rust, but cracks, holes and scratches happen, and a crack only stays repaired if it’s supported underneath.
Questions from Berkeley
When can you do it?
We will give you dates with your quote. If it’s urgent, say so and we’ll do what we can.
Is a bath repair permanent?
Yes, if it’s prepared properly and the bath is sound. It’s covered by our one-year guarantee.
I tried a repair kit. Can you fix it?
Regularly. The old material comes out, any rust is treated, then we repair it properly.
Is there any odour?
There may be a mild smell during the work.
How do I book?
Send pictures through the quote form or call 0345 017 0787, and we’ll take it from there.
Do you charge for travel?
Travel is included in the price, with the same prices everywhere we work.
Are you accredited?
Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.
Will it make a mess?
We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and we clean up when we have finished.
What happens on the day
On the day itself, there is little for you to do. Show us the job, point us to the room, and we’ll take it from there. Most visits take a few hours, including clearing up.
- First, the area is cleaned and any loose enamel or rust is removed.
- Next we fill the damage and sand it smooth and level.
- We mix the colour on the day to match your bath’s exact shade.
- We build up the finish and polish it into the surrounding enamel.
- Once it has cured, generally by the day after, the bath is ready to use.
Before we arrive
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
- Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
Getting a price
Send us a picture of the damage and one of the whole item, and tell us you are in Berkeley, and we will come back with a fixed quote.

Nearly all the chips we see start with something being dropped: a shampoo bottle, a shower head, a tile or a tool during a refit. On steel and cast iron baths, a chip that reaches the metal will start to rust.
Common reasons people in Berkeley contact us are:
- A cracked acrylic bath
- Chips on the rim or sides

What else we do in Berkeley
Repairing versus replacing in Berkeley
Replacing a fitted bath usually means a plumber, removing the old bath, re-tiling and a new panel and disposing of the old one. A repair fixes just the damaged area in one visit. Our bath repair starts from £95. Every job is a little different, so we price each one individually. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all make a difference, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.
Why Berkeley customers choose us
- Usually one visit, start to finish
- Work done at your home or business
- A year’s guarantee on all work
- CHAS and Constructionline accredited
Read our prices page and resurfacing vs replacement cost guide.
What we cannot put right
We’d rather lose a job than do one that won’t last, so these are the limits:
- A steel bath rusted through
- A bath that flexes because its feet or cradle have failed (that needs fixing first)
- Water coming from the waste or taps rather than the bath
If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think.
What we work on
- Whirlpool & spa baths
- Pressed steel enamel
- Acrylic
- Roll-top & freestanding
- Cast iron enamel
Landlords, agents and businesses in Berkeley
We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, putting right damage done during fitting so nothing needs replacing. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.
Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets need rooms back in use quickly, so we keep visits short and tidy. We’ll fit around changeovers where we can.
DIY repairs versus a professional job
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.
It’s natural to want to try a repair 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.
