What else we do in Clyst Heath
Landlords, agents and businesses in Clyst Heath
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.
We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which is easier on the people living there.
Materials and what they mean for the repair
Pressed steel
Steel baths and trays have a thin metal body under the enamel. Exposed steel rusts quickly, so we treat and seal the metal before filling.
Cast iron
Cast iron baths are so heavy that repairing in place makes obvious sense. The enamel is the part that wears or chips, and that is the part we put right.
What we can’t put right
It helps to know what we cannot do too:
- Wear across the whole surface, which needs re-enamelling
- A bath that moves underfoot, until its support is fixed
- A steel bath rusted through
If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think.
Materials we repair
- Cast iron enamel
- Acrylic
- Pressed steel enamel
- Whirlpool & spa baths
- Roll-top & freestanding
Prices and what affects them
Repairs from £95. We do not charge extra for travel to Clyst Heath. The price depends on:
- How hard the colour is to match
- How much damage there is
- Whether we combine several jobs
- What the surface is made of
A repair normally costs much less than people expect, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Photos let us give you the exact figure.
Send pictures for a quote
Photographing the damage takes a minute, and it saves a visit. Try to send:
- Details of any past repairs
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
A quote takes minutes to ask for: photograph the damage, then the entire bath, add your postcode and send them to us. What comes back is a fixed quote, not a guess.
Should I try a DIY kit first?
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, then guarantee it for a year.
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is generally the cheaper route.
The process
A typical visit goes like this: we arrive at the agreed slot, protect everything around the work area, do the job and tidy away. Plan for a morning or an afternoon. Before leaving, we tell you when it can be used and how to look after it.
- Dust sheets and masking go down around the bath.
- We clean, key and degrease the damage, and any rust is treated.
- Filler goes in and is sanded flush once it has set.
- We match both the colour and the shine.
- We tidy up and tell you when the bath can be used, usually the next day.
Preparing for the visit
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
- Let us know which floor the room is on
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
Getting a price

Advice
Why repair rather than replace?
Many people think a damaged bath means a new one. In most cases it does not: a repair keeps the bath in service for years, and costs far less than the disruption of a replacement. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. 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.
What you get with us
- Every repair guaranteed for a year
- Work done at your home or business
- CHAS and Constructionline accredited
- Usually one visit, start to finish

Common questions in Clyst Heath
Will there be a smell?
A little, depending on the job. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum.
Is it safe with children and pets around?
Keep pets and children away from the work area on the day, mainly so nothing gets touched before it has cured.
I rent my home. Can I book you?
Yes, though it’s best to check with your landlord first. Landlords are frequently glad to have it sorted.
Is it messy?
We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and we clean up when we have finished.
What happens once I’ve sent photos?
We check the damage, the material and your postcode, then reply with a quote with dates.
What happens if you find more damage?
It’s rare, but if it happens we talk to you first. The price only changes if you agree.
How quickly can you book me in?
We will give you dates with your quote. Tell us if you need it done quickly.
Will I be able to see the repair?
The goal is a repair that blends in. The rest of the bath’s condition makes a difference.
