Bath repair in Filkins 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. We regularly repair pressed steel enamel, whirlpool & spa baths and roll-top & freestanding, and people most frequently call us about rust by the waste and overflow and a chipped rim or side.
A one-year guarantee comes with the work, just as it does everywhere we cover.

Should I try a DIY kit first?
For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, a professional repair is worth it.
If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, ensure the area is clean and completely dry, and give it the full curing time. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.
What bath repair costs
Repairs from £95. A fixed quote means you know the cost before booking. We look at:
- The colour and finish to match
- The size and number of damaged areas
- What the surface is made of
- How many items we do on one visit
The price reflects the work involved, not your postcode. You’ll see the full price before you book.
How to get a fixed quote
Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what to send:
- One picture of the entire bath
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- The material, if you know it
Most clients in Filkins get their price from pictures. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we’ll send back a fixed quote and some dates.
Why repair rather than replace?
Think about the hidden costs of a new bath: removal and disposal, plumbing, a new panel, tiling and decorating. With a repair, it’s one visit and one price. Our bath repair starts from £95. There are no surprise extras on the day. What we quote from your photos is what you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.
Why us?
- Everything repaired in place
- We come to you, anywhere in the UK

How the visit works
On the day, we arrive at the time we’ve agreed, cover the area with dust sheets and masking, and set to work. Expect it to take a few hours. We clean up when we’re done and let you know when you can use it again.
- We start by cleaning the damage and taking out loose enamel and rust.
- The chip or crack is filled, then sanded level with the bath.
- The colour is mixed on the spot to match your bath.
- 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.
Getting ready for the visit
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
- Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat

For landlords and businesses
We’re used to working with agents and managing companies. Just send photos, the address and how to get access and we will handle the rest.
Hospitality businesses cannot afford rooms out of action for long, so we keep visits short and tidy. We can work around your bookings.
Your questions about bath repair in Filkins
Do I need to be at home?
Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time we agree with you.
Can you repair a failed DIY repair?
Yes. We take out the old repair and do it properly. Mention it when you send pictures.
Can you repair something that is been repaired before?
Most of the time. Tell us what was done before.
What happens if you find more damage?
It’s rare, but if it happens we talk to you first. You decide whether to go ahead.
How long before I can use the bath?
Most baths can be used the following day. We confirm the time before we leave.
When can you do it?
Your quote comes with available dates. Tell us if you need it done quickly.
What areas do you cover?
We cover the whole UK, including Filkins and the rest of Gloucestershire. Send your postcode with your pictures and we’ll offer you dates.
Can you match an avocado or pink bath?
Yes. We mix the colour on the day to match, including pastel and older colours.

Aftercare tips
It’s all simple stuff, just a few sensible habits:
- Rinse it down after each bath
- Get any new chip repaired before it rusts
- If an acrylic bath flexes, have its feet adjusted
- Stick to mild cleaners and a soft cloth
There is nothing special to do after a repair, just sensible cleaning. Skip bleach and gritty creams and rinse after use.
Avoid standing in a cracked acrylic bath until it’s fixed. Every use opens the crack a little more, and it can start to leak underneath.
