What bath repair costs

Repairs from £95. We price every job individually. What matters most is:

Where the damage is and how we get to it
Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
The material and finish
Doing more than one item at once

Rather than charging by the hour, we price the whole job up front. Damage, material and access decide it.

Getting a price from pictures

Most quotes are done from photos alone. To make it quick:

Details of any past repairs
The postcode, so we can plan the visit
A wider photo showing the whole bath
The material, if you know it

Getting a price is easy: snap the damage close up and then the entire item, send them over with your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price. Quotes are free and no obligation.

About our bath repair in Kingstone

Whatever has happened to the bath, we aim for the same result: a smooth, solid repair that blends in. Proper preparation, careful filling and shaping, then colour and gloss matching so it’s level with the surrounding surface. Common call-outs are for chips caused by builders and a chip where the taps sit, in cast iron enamel, pressed steel enamel and roll-top & freestanding.

You’re covered for a year from the day of the repair. If anything isn’t right, ring us and we’ll sort it.

Broken acrylic bath corner, rebuilt and refinished (before and after)

Different materials, different repairs

Composite and resin

Composite baths are dense and solid. Chips and scratches are filled and matched, just like other baths.

Acrylic

Acrylic feels warm and is light, but it needs firm support underneath. Cracks are strengthened from behind before the front is finished.

Can I fix it myself?

It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is typically cheaper.

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.

For landlords and businesses

Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets need rooms back in use quickly, so we keep visits short and tidy. We will fit around changeovers where we can.

Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover, saving last-minute replacements. We can visit several plots in one trip.

Aftercare tips

Once the work has cured, treat it gently:

Have new chips seen to early
Store metal items away from the bath
Make sure an acrylic bath is firm underfoot
Cover the bath during DIY or decorating

Treat the repaired area like the rest of the bath: warm water, washing-up liquid and a soft cloth. Keep scouring pads and gritty cleaners away from it.

Stop using the bath if a crack lets water through. Leaks under a bath can damage floors and ceilings.

Repair or replace: which is better?

People frequently assume a cracked or chipped bath has to come out. In most cases it doesn’t: a proper repair gives it years more use, and costs far less than the disruption of a replacement. Prices start from £95. Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is usually a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good.

Kingstone questions

I tried a repair kit. Can you fix it?

Yes. We take out the old repair and do it properly. Mention it when you send pictures.

Can landlords book you?

Yes. We carry out repairs for homeowners, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses across Somerset.

Can you match an avocado or pink bath?

Yes. The colour is mixed on site to suit your bath, including pastel and older colours.

Is the work guaranteed?

All our work carries a one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.

Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?

Typically, if the item is otherwise sound. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. If replacing would be better, we will say so.

Is a cracked acrylic bath repairable?

Typically, yes, if we can reach the underside to reinforce it. Take off the bath panel and check, or send us a photo.

Can I add another job to the visit?

Yes. Doing several items on one visit usually costs less than separate visits. Send pictures of everything you’d like done.

Does someone need to be in?

We need someone to let us in. After that, you can carry on with your day.
