Landlord and trade work in Dodington
We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams in South Gloucestershire and across the UK. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which is easier on the people living there.
Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Dodington use us as well as homeowners. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it costs much less than replacing.
Bath repair in Dodington without replacing anything
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. If you’re dealing with damage done while the bathroom was being fitted and rust by the waste and overflow, we can help, on whirlpool & spa baths, roll-top & freestanding and cast iron enamel alike.
A one-year guarantee comes with the work, just as it does everywhere we cover.

Honest limits
Some jobs aren’t right for a repair, including:
- Leaks from the waste or overflow fittings (a plumber’s job)
- A bath that moves underfoot, until its support is fixed
- Wear across the entire surface, which needs re-enamelling
If in doubt, send photos and we’ll say what we think before booking.
Materials we repair
- Whirlpool & spa baths
- Pressed steel enamel
- Cast iron enamel
- Acrylic
- Roll-top & freestanding
Keeping it looking good
A little care keeps the finish looking good. We recommend:
- Do not leave a fresh chip for long
- A dripping tap stains enamel, so fix it early
- If an acrylic bath flexes, have its feet adjusted
- Clean with warm water and a mild detergent
Clean with mild, non-abrasive cleaners and try not to drop heavy bottles on the repair. Deal with new chips early, before rust sets in.
A chip on a metal bath shouldn’t be left. Once water reaches the metal, rust begins, and a rust spot is a bigger repair than a clean chip.
How we price bath repair
Repairs from £95. We give every job a fixed quote from pictures. These are the things that affect it:
- The colour and finish to match
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- How many areas need work
- The type of damage
A few things move the price: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Send photos and you’ll get a fixed figure.
Send photos for a quote
It only takes a minute to photograph the damage, and it saves a visit. Try to send:
- Natural light rather than flash
- The material, if you know it
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- One sharp close-up of the damage
There is no need for us to visit first. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we’ll come back to you with a fixed figure.

Other services in Dodington
Different materials, different repairs
Acrylic
Acrylic baths are moulded sheet reinforced underneath. There’s no rust, but cracks, holes and scratches happen, and a crack only stays repaired if it’s supported underneath.
Composite and resin
Composite baths are dense and solid. Chips and scratches can be filled and colour matched, just like other baths.
Common questions in Dodington
Can you price it without visiting?
Yes, almost always. Clear pictures let us give you a fixed price without visiting.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Of course, and it usually saves money. Send pictures of everything together and we will quote them together.
Which areas do you work in?
We cover the entire UK, including Dodington and the rest of South Gloucestershire. Send your postcode with your photos and we’ll offer you dates.
How soon can you come?
That depends on our diary for your area. We’ll offer you dates when we send your quote.
Is my repair covered?
All our work carries our one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.
Is a bath repair permanent?
It should, as long as the bath is firm and the area was prepared well. It’s covered by our one-year guarantee.
Can rust on a bath be repaired?
Yes. We remove the rust and loose enamel, seal and fill the area, then colour-match the finish.
How do I book?
Some photos, your postcode and how to reach you. On the day, access to the room.
What happens on the day
Expect a friendly, tidy visit. We confirm the time with you beforehand, cover and mask the work area, then carry out the work, which generally takes two to three hours for most chips. If anything looks different from your pictures, 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.
- The colour is mixed on the spot to match your bath.
- Finish coats go on, then the repair is polished to blend in.
- The repair is left to cure, and most baths can be used the day after.
How to prepare
- Make sure the area is dry
- Have a window or extractor fan available
- Let us know if it has been repaired before
Ask for a price
Pricing is simple: snap the damage close up and then the whole item, send them over with your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote. Quotes are free and you are under no obligation.

DIY repairs versus a professional job
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.
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair won’t last.
Repair or replace in Dodington?
A repair makes sense whenever the damage is localised. It’s a fraction of the cost of a new bath and fitting, it takes one visit, and nothing else in the room changes. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Compared with replacing, repairing usually costs far less, because there’s no removal, plumbing or making good. The quote lists exactly what you are paying for.
