Keeping it looking good
It’s all simple stuff:
- A dripping tap stains enamel, so fix it early
- Store metal items away from the bath
- Use a soft cloth and washing-up liquid for everyday cleaning
- Ensure an acrylic bath is firm underfoot
A repaired bath needs no special treatment, beyond gentle cleaning. Avoid bleach-based and gritty cleaners and rinse after use.
Tape over a fresh chip or crack until it’s repaired, to keep water out. Remove it before the repair.
About our bath repair in Clifton
You do not need a new bath because of a chip. We fill the damage, shape it to the curve of the bath and refinish it, with the colour mixed on site. If you’re dealing with a cracked acrylic bath and impact holes in acrylic, we can help, on pressed steel enamel, acrylic and whirlpool & spa baths alike.
Peace of mind is built in: each job carries a one-year guarantee, and we’ll explain exactly what it covers when we quote.

Work for landlords and builders
Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.
We are used to working with agents and managing companies. Just send pictures, the address and how to get access and we’ll handle the rest.
What a repair can’t fix
A few problems are outside what a surface repair can do:
- A bath worn all over, where resurfacing makes more sense
- Leaks from the waste or overflow fittings (a plumber’s job)
- Acrylic cracks with no access behind them
Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly before you book.
Surfaces we repair
- Roll-top & freestanding
- Acrylic
- Cast iron enamel
- Pressed steel enamel
- Whirlpool & spa baths
Repair or replace in Clifton?
People often assume a cracked or chipped bath has to come out. Usually it does not: a repair keeps the bath in service for years, and costs far less than the disruption of a replacement. Our bath repair starts from £95. No two jobs are quite the same, so each one is priced on its own. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all make a difference, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.
What you get with us
- Same prices wherever you are
- Honest advice, even when it means no job
- Free fixed quotes from pictures
- Technicians who travel to you, UK-wide

Should I try a DIY kit first?
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 trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
Questions from Clifton
What areas do you cover?
All of Bristol, and the rest of the UK. There’s no extra charge for travel.
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 will say so.
What does bath repair cost?
Repairs from £95. We give a fixed price from your pictures. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo and your postcode.
What about rust by the waste?
Yes. We take out the rust and any loose enamel, seal and fill the area, then colour-match the finish.
Is a holed acrylic bath repairable?
Frequently, if there’s access underneath. The hole is backed, filled and refinished to match.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Yes. Doing several items on one visit generally costs less than separate visits. Send pictures of everything you’d like done.
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
We ask you to keep children and pets out of the room while we work. Everywhere else in the home is fine.
Will there be a smell?
There can be some smell while we work, which is why we ventilate. It fades as everything cures.
What affects the price in Clifton
Prices start from £95. There’s no area surcharge for Clifton. The price reflects:
- How much damage there is
- The colour and finish to match
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- The material and finish
A repair generally costs much less than people expect, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Photos let us give you the exact figure.
How to get a fixed price
Before you send photos, these tips help us give you a firm price:
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- A photo taken from further back
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- Natural light rather than flash
Most customers in Clifton get their price from photos. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we’ll send back a fixed quote and some dates.

The process

- We start by looking at the damage and confirming the plan with you.
- Loose enamel, rust and dirt are removed so the repair can bond.
- The damage is filled in layers and shaped to the curve of the bath.
- The colour is tinted by hand until it matches.
- Finally, it’s polished to match the shine and left to cure.
Getting ready for the visit

Materials and what they mean for the repair
Composite and resin
Composite baths are dense and solid. Chips and scratches are filled and matched, just like other baths.
Acrylic
Acrylic feels warm and is light, but it relies on good support. Cracks are strengthened from behind before the front is finished.
