Questions from Hanham

Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?

In most cases, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. If it isn’t worth repairing, we will tell you.

What do you need from me?

Use the quote form or ring 0345 017 0787, and we will do the rest.

Something went through my bath. Can it be fixed?

In most cases. Photos of the hole and the underside help us check.

Which areas do you work in?

The entire UK, including all of South Gloucestershire. Just include your postcode and we will confirm dates.

What does bath repair cost?

Prices start from £95. We give a fixed quote from your photos. Send a close-up and a picture of the entire item and your postcode.

Can you do more than one item on the same visit?

Of course, and it generally saves money. Send pictures of everything together and we’ll quote them together.

Is a bath repair durable?

Yes, if it’s prepared properly and the bath is sound. It carries our one-year guarantee.

Do you work in Hanham?

Yes. We work across the UK and travel to Hanham. Send photos and we’ll quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

How to look after the repair

Once the work has cured, treat it gently:

  • If an acrylic bath flexes, have its feet adjusted
  • Rinse the bath after use, especially in hard water areas
  • Avoid scourers, wire wool and gritty cream cleaners
  • Don’t leave razors or cans standing in the bath

Look after the repair the same way as the bath: a soft cloth and washing-up liquid is all it needs. Avoid scourers and gritty cream cleaners.

Rust spreads under enamel faster than most people expect. Left for months, a small chip can grow into a large rust patch, so it pays to deal with it early.

DIY kit or professional repair?

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.

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it does not stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.

Landlord and trade work in Hanham

We’re used to working with agents and managing companies. Just send pictures, the address and how to get access and we’ll handle the rest.

Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, fixing chips and scratches before handover. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.

Repair or replace: which is better?

If the rest of the bath is in good condition, a repair is almost always the better choice. It’s quicker, cheaper and far less disruptive, and you keep the bath you chose. Where the entire surface is tired, we may suggest re-enamelling instead. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Compared with replacing, repairing generally costs far less, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

Why us?

  • Colours mixed by hand to suit your surface
  • Most jobs done in one visit
  • Same prices wherever you are
  • We’ll tell you if it’s not worth repairing

Prices and what affects them

Repairs from £95. A fixed quote means you know the cost before you book. We take into account:

  • How much damage there is
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • Whether we combine several jobs

There are no surprise extras on the day. The price we quote from your pictures is the price you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.

Send pictures for a quote

Phone pictures are fine, there’s no need for anything special. Make sure they show:

  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • One picture of the whole bath
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection

A quote takes minutes to ask for: photograph the damage, then the entire bath, add your postcode and send them over. What comes back is a fixed quote, not a guess.

When a repair isn’t the answer

Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair can’t fix:

  • Flexing caused by a failed cradle or loose feet
  • Wear across the whole surface, which needs re-enamelling
  • Cracks in acrylic we can’t reach from underneath

Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly.

Materials we repair

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

Common problems we fix in Hanham

The usual cause is something heavy dropped into the bath, and a lot happen during bathroom refits. Acrylic baths crack for a different reason: the bath isn’t properly supported, so it flexes under weight.

Most people get in touch when they notice something like this:

  • A chipped rim or side
  • A kit repair that didn’t last
  • Impact holes in acrylic
  • Hairline or through cracks in acrylic

What to look for in a quote

  • Aftercare advice
  • How long the guarantee is and what it covers
  • If travel is included in the price
  • Whether a trained technician does the job

Choosing a repair company

What happens on the day

We begin by going over the job with you, so there are no surprises. Then the area is sheeted and masked and we start. Allow a few hours, depending on the damage.

  1. First, we check the damage against your pictures and agree the plan.
  2. Any rust and loose material comes out, and the area is degreased.
  3. We build up the filler in layers, shaping it to the bath.
  4. The colour is tinted by hand until it matches.
  5. The repair is polished to the same gloss as the bath and left to cure.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Let the surface dry out before the visit
  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible

How to get a price

Send us photos of the damage and a wider shot of the whole item, with your BS15 postcode, and we’ll come back with a fixed quote.
