Combe Down questions
Is there any odour?
There can be some smell while we work. It fades as everything cures.
Is a cracked acrylic bath repairable?
Most of the time. We reinforce the crack from behind, then fill and refinish the front, so access behind the panel is important.
Can tenants book a repair?
Yes, but check with your landlord or agent first. Landlords are frequently glad to have it sorted before the end of a tenancy.
It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?
Usually, yes. The old repair comes out first.
Is a holed acrylic bath repairable?
In most cases. Photos of the hole and the underside help us check.
Do you cover the entire of Bath and North East Somerset?
We work UK-wide. Prices don’t change with location.
Can I get a quote without a visit?
Yes, almost always. Clear pictures let us give you a fixed price without visiting.
Can you redo an old repair?
Yes. We take out the old repair and do it properly. Tell us about it when you send pictures.
Landlord and trade work in Combe Down
We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams in Bath and North East Somerset and across the UK. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which is easier on the people living there.
Rental properties take more wear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.
Repairing versus replacing in Combe Down
If the rest of the bath is in good condition, a repair is almost always the better choice. It costs less, takes less time and causes far less upheaval, and you keep the bath you chose. Where the whole surface is tired, we may suggest re-enamelling instead. Prices start from £95. Instead of hourly rates, we fix the price before we start. Damage, material and access decide it, and doing several items at once reduces it.
What you get with us

Aftercare tips
It’s all simple stuff, just a few sensible habits:
- Store metal items away from the bath
- Give the bath a quick rinse after use
- Check that an acrylic bath does not move when you stand in it
- Protect the bath with a towel when doing jobs nearby
Leave the repair to cure for as long as we say before using the bath. After that, gentle cleaning keeps it looking good.
If water is getting through a crack, stop using the bath until it’s repaired. Leaks under a bath can damage floors and ceilings.
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.

When a repair isn’t the answer
In fairness, some problems need a different fix:
- Leaks from the waste or overflow fittings (a plumber’s job)
- A whole bath that’s dull or worn, where a full re-enamel is the better fix
- Metal that has corroded all the way through
If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think.
What we work on
- Pressed steel enamel
- Cast iron enamel
- Acrylic

What bath repair costs
Prices start from £95. Every quote is fixed and free. What we take into account:
- The colour and finish to match
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- How many areas need work
- Doing more than one item at once
Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Send pictures and we will give you the exact figure.
How to get a fixed quote
When you take your pictures, a few simple things make all the difference:
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
Email us photos of the damage and a wider shot of the entire item, and tell us you are in Combe Down, and we will reply with a fixed price.
When to call us in Combe Down
Baths take more knocks than people expect: everyday items get dropped into it all the time, and fittings press hard against the enamel. Over time, chips and rust spots are almost inevitable.
People typically call us after spotting one of these:
- Damage beneath the taps
- Rust spots around the plughole
- Impact holes in acrylic
- A failed DIY repair that’s discoloured or lifting
Before you book anyone
- Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?
- If travel is included in the price
- How to care for the finish
- How your room will be protected
What happens on the day
Expect a friendly, tidy visit. We agree the arrival time in advance, cover and mask the work area, then carry out the work, which normally takes a morning or an afternoon. If anything looks different from your photos, we’ll talk to you before going ahead.
- First, the area is cleaned and any loose enamel or rust is removed.
- We fill the damage and sand it flush with the surrounding surface.
- 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.
How to prepare
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
- Tell us about parking, stairs or access
- Ensure the area is dry
Getting a price
The quickest way to a price is to send two or three pictures through our quote form or ring us. We will tell you honestly if a repair is the right fix.
