Trusted bath repair in Ebley

Honest limits

A repair isn’t right for every job, including:

  • A bath worn all over, where resurfacing makes more sense
  • Leaking fittings, which need a plumber
  • A bath that flexes because its feet or cradle have failed (that needs fixing first)

If in doubt, send photos and we will say what we think before booking.

What we work on

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

How we handle bath repair in Ebley

Whatever has happened to the bath, we aim for the same result: a repair that is smooth, sound and hard to spot. We prepare the area properly, fill and shape it, then match the colour and gloss so it sits flush with the rest of the bath.

Can I fix it myself?

What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, then guarantee it for a year.

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.

Ebley: your questions answered

Can rust on a bath be repaired?

Yes, it’s one of the most common repairs we do. We take it back to sound metal, seal it, fill it and match the colour.

Is there any odour?

Expect a mild smell while we are working.

Will I be able to see the repair?

On a bath in good condition, a colour-matched repair is very hard to spot. On older, dull enamel the repair can look glossier than the area around it.

Can you repair a crack in an acrylic bath?

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

Is my repair covered?

Yes: twelve months. If there’s a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.

How do I get a price for bath repair in Ebley?

Prices start from £95. We give a fixed price from your photos. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo and your postcode.

Will the repair last?

It should, as long as the bath is firm and the area was prepared well. It’s covered by our one-year guarantee.

What if the damage is worse than the pictures show?

It’s rare, but if it happens we talk to you first. You decide whether to go ahead.

How it works

Here’s how a visit typically runs: we arrive on time, protect everything around the work area, carry out the work and clear up. Allow two to three hours for most chips from start to finish. Before we go, we’ll explain how long to leave it and what to avoid for the first few days.

  1. Dust sheets and masking go down around the bath.
  2. The damaged area is cleaned, keyed and degreased.
  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.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
  • Let us know about parking or access
  • Have a window or extractor fan available

How to get a price

Pricing is simple: snap the damage close up and then the entire item, send them to us with your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed price. There is no charge for the quote and no obligation.

How to care for the repair

Nothing complicated is needed:

  • Stick to mild cleaners and a soft cloth
  • Do not leave razors or cans standing in the bath
  • Keep abrasive pads and gritty cleaners away from the bath
  • Rinse it down after each bath

In the first few days, avoid putting weight or bottles on the repair. After that, normal gentle cleaning is fine.

If water is getting through a crack, stop using the bath until it’s repaired. Leaks under a bath can damage floors and ceilings.

What affects the price in Ebley

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

  • The material
  • The type of damage
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • Access to the area

We do not add extras on the day. The price we quote from your photos is the price you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.

Getting a price from pictures

When you take your photos, these tips help us give you a firm price:

  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • One picture of the whole bath
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit

If you’re in Ebley and want a price, the easiest route is photos: a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode. We reply with a fixed quote and our next available dates.

Work for landlords and builders

Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs in Gloucestershire and across the UK. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which is easier on the people living there.

We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out pictures. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.

When to call us in Ebley

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 usually call us when they notice one of these:

  • Hairline or through cracks in acrylic
  • A hole punched through by something heavy
  • Chips caused by builders
  • Chips under the taps

Before you book anyone

  • Who will actually do the work
  • When it can be used again
  • How long the guarantee is and what it covers
  • How to care for the finish

Our hiring checklist

Different materials, different repairs

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.

Composite and resin

Composite baths are dense and solid. Chips and scratches are filled and matched, in much the same way.
