What we are called out for in Brislington
Most bath damage comes from something 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.
Signs it’s time to call us include:
- Chips on the rim or sides
- Hairline or through cracks in acrylic
- A failed DIY repair that is discoloured or lifting
- Deep scratches in acrylic

For landlords and businesses
Rental properties take more wear, 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.
We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams in Bristol and across the UK. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which is easier on the people living there.

Prices and what affects them
Repairs from £95. We charge the same across the UK, including Brislington. The price reflects:
- Access to the area
- Doing more than one item at once
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- How hard the colour is to match
Instead of hourly rates, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and doing several items at once reduces it.
Send photos for a quote
It only takes a minute to photograph the damage, and it saves a visit. Please include:
- Any details about the material
- Something in shot to show the size
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
To get a price, send two or three pictures using our quote form or call us. We’ll tell you honestly whether it can be repaired.
Repairs by material
Acrylic
An acrylic bath is a moulded sheet strengthened from below. There’s no rust, but cracks, holes and scratches happen, and cracks need support from behind to stay fixed.
Cast iron
A cast iron bath is heavy enough that most people never want to move it. The enamel is the part that wears or chips, and that is what we repair.
Can I fix it myself?
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, then guarantee it for a year.
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.
Your questions about bath repair in Brislington
How long before I can use the bath?
Normally by the following day, depending on the repair.
What happens next?
You’ll get a fixed quote back, plus dates. There’s no obligation to book.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
Typically, if the item is otherwise sound. A repair avoids removal and making good. If replacing would be better, we’ll say so.
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
In most cases. The old repair comes out first, so mention it when you send pictures.
Will the repair show?
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’ll tell you what to expect.
Does someone need to be in?
We need someone to let us in. You don’t need to watch us work.
Can you redo an old repair?
Yes. We remove the old filler and start again. Mention it when you send photos.
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
Yes, though it’s best to check with your landlord first. Landlords are frequently glad to have it sorted before the end of a tenancy.
Looking after it afterwards
How the surface is treated afterwards matters:
- Keep abrasive pads and gritty cleaners away from the bath
- Have new chips seen to early
- Stick to mild cleaners and a soft cloth
- Rinse the bath after use, especially in hard water areas
Leave the repair to cure for as long as we say before using the bath. From then on, mild cleaning is all it needs.
If an acrylic bath has a crack, stop showering in it until it’s repaired. Every use opens the crack a little more, and it can start to leak underneath.
Honest limits
We won’t take on work that will not last, so here’s what a repair cannot put right:
- A steel bath rusted through
- Leaking fittings, which need a plumber
- Acrylic cracks with no access behind them
If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think.
Materials we repair
- Pressed steel enamel
- Roll-top & freestanding
- Whirlpool & spa baths
- Acrylic
- Cast iron enamel
What happens on the day
We begin by going over the job with you, so there are no surprises. After that, protection goes down around the work area and we start. You can expect it to take two to three hours for most chips.
- 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 build up the finish and polish it into the surrounding enamel.
- The repair is left to cure, and most baths can be used the next day.
How to prepare
- Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
- Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
