Bath repair for Easter Compton homes

Bath repair in Easter Compton without replacing anything

We repair just the damaged spot and colour-match it to the bath, which is far cheaper than replacing a fitted bath and the tiles around it. Most baths can be used again the following day. We’re frequently asked to fix a kit repair that didn’t last and chips caused by builders, across cast iron enamel, pressed steel enamel and acrylic.

All our work is covered by a one-year guarantee, wherever you are in South Gloucestershire.

Honest limits

Before booking, it’s worth knowing the limits:

  • A bath worn all over, where resurfacing makes more sense
  • A steel bath rusted through
  • Leaks from the waste or overflow fittings (a plumber’s job)

If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think before you book.

Surfaces we repair

  • Pressed steel enamel
  • Whirlpool & spa baths
  • Acrylic
  • Cast iron enamel
  • Roll-top & freestanding

Repairs by material

Pressed steel

Under the enamel of a steel bath is thin metal. Exposed steel rusts quickly, so the metal is treated and sealed before the repair.

Cast iron

Cast iron baths are thick and very strong, finished with fired enamel. Chips can rust if left, but the body of the bath lasts a very long time, which makes it well worth repairing.

What we do, step by step

On the day itself, there’s little for you to do. Let us in and show us the room, and we will take it from there. Most visits take two to three hours for most chips, including clearing up.

  1. We protect the bath and the floor around it.
  2. We clean, key and degrease the damage, and any rust is treated.
  3. We fill it, let it set, then sand it flush.
  4. Colour and gloss are matched to the surrounding surface.
  5. We tidy up and tell you when the bath can be used, normally the day after.

How to prepare

  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
  • Let the surface dry out before the visit

How to get a price

Most clients in Easter Compton get their price from photos. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we will send back a fixed quote and some dates.

Common problems we fix in Easter Compton

The usual cause is something heavy dropped into the bath, and building work is a common culprit. Cracks in acrylic have a different cause: poor support underneath, so the bath flexes when it’s full.

The most common problems we are called about are:

  • Rusty patches near the plughole
  • Cracks in an acrylic bath
  • Scuffs and scratches in the surface
  • An old repair that has yellowed or come loose

What your quote should include

  • How long it needs to cure
  • Whether there are any call-out or travel charges
  • Who turns up on the day
  • Whether the colour is mixed to match

Choosing a repair company

For landlords and businesses

Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which matters when someone is living in the home.

Letting agents frequently send us photos straight from the inventory. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.

How to look after the repair

Much of the damage we repair could have been avoided. These habits help:

  • Have new chips seen to early
  • Check that an acrylic bath does not move when you stand in it
  • Do not scrub with anything abrasive
  • Protect the bath with a towel when doing jobs nearby

For the first few days, keep heavy bottles off the repaired spot. After that, normal gentle cleaning is fine, avoiding abrasives.

Stop using the bath if a crack lets water through. Water under the bath can damage the floor and the ceiling below.

Your questions about bath repair in Easter Compton

Can you quote from pictures?

Nearly always. We only ask to see it in person if the pictures can’t show what we need.

What if the damage is worse than the pictures show?

We stop, show you and agree any change before carrying on. Nothing extra is done without your say-so.

Do you work for landlords and businesses?

Yes, often. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.

Is a cracked acrylic bath repairable?

In most cases. We reinforce the crack from behind, then fill and refinish the front, so access behind the panel is important.

What happens after I send pictures?

We review the pictures and send a fixed quote and the next dates we have.

What areas do you cover?

We cover the whole UK, including Easter Compton and the rest of South Gloucestershire. Send your postcode with your pictures and we’ll offer you dates.

Is a bath repair permanent?

Done properly, a repair lasts for years, and it’s guaranteed for a year. Gentle cleaning helps.

Do you come to Easter Compton?

Yes, we do. We send a technician to Easter Compton for every job, and the price is the same as everywhere else.

What bath repair costs

Prices start from £95. We give every job a fixed price from pictures. This is what makes a difference:

  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • The material and finish

It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

Quotes from your pictures

We price nearly every job from pictures. This is what to send:

  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • One picture of the whole bath
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale

If you’re in Easter Compton and want a price, pictures are the quickest way: a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode. You’ll get a fixed quote with dates to choose from.
