Bath repair in Farleigh, done in place
We repair enamelled steel, cast iron and acrylic baths. Each material is repaired a little differently: metal baths need any rust dealt with first, and acrylic cracks need support from behind. We work on roll-top & freestanding, pressed steel enamel and acrylic, and common reasons people get in touch are a chipped rim or side and damage done while the bathroom was being fitted.
All our work is covered by our one-year guarantee, wherever you are in North Somerset.

Should you replace it?
A new bath costs more than the bath itself: taking out the old one, plumbing, tiling, a panel and redecorating. A repair is one job, done in one visit. Our bath repair starts from £95. The price reflects the work involved, not your postcode. The full price is agreed before you book, with nothing added on the day.
Why book with us
- Everything repaired in place
- One price list for the entire UK
- Colour mixed on the day to match
- Straight answers about what a repair can do

DIY kit or professional repair?
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: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.

What your bath is made of matters
Acrylic
Acrylic baths are moulded sheet reinforced underneath. There is no rust, but cracks, holes and scratches happen, and cracks need support from behind to stay fixed.
Pressed steel
Under the enamel of a steel bath is thin metal. Exposed steel rusts quickly, so we treat and seal the metal before filling.
Honest limits
A repair isn’t always the answer, and we would rather say so up front. We cannot fix:
- A bath worn all over, where resurfacing makes more sense
- A steel bath rusted through
- Cracks in parts of an acrylic bath we can’t get to from below

The process
Here’s how a visit normally runs: we arrive on time, sheet and mask the area around the job, do the job and tidy away. Allow two to three hours for most chips from start to finish. Before leaving, we tell you how long to leave it and how to look after it.
- 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 mix the colour on the day to match your bath’s exact shade.
- Finish coats go on, then the repair is polished to blend in.
- Once it has cured, generally by the day after, the bath is ready to use.
How to prepare
- Let us know which floor the room is on
- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive

Your questions about bath repair in Farleigh
Is it messy?
We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and we clean up when we have finished.
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
In most cases. The old repair comes out first, so let us know about it.
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
Of course. Ask your landlord first, and we can send them the quote if that helps.
Is a bath repair durable?
Done properly, a repair lasts for years, and ours come with a one-year guarantee. Gentle cleaning helps.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Yes. Doing several items on one visit normally costs less than separate visits. Send photos of everything you’d like done.
Do I have to be there?
Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time that suits you.
Is it safe with children and pets around?
We ask you to keep children and pets out of the room while we work. The rest of the house is unaffected.
Do you hold any accreditations?
We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.
Aftercare tips
Once the work has cured, treat it gently:
- Rinse the bath after use, especially in hard water areas
- Get a dripping tap fixed promptly
- Store metal items away from the bath
- Ensure an acrylic bath is firm underfoot
Keep metal objects like razors and cans off the surface, because they can mark the enamel. A dripping tap should be fixed early, too.
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.
