Bath repair at your home in Knollbury
A typical bath repair is a few hours’ work, and the bath is back in use the day after. You will not need a plumber or tiler, because the bath doesn’t move. We are often asked to fix snagging damage from a refit and deep scratches in acrylic, on roll-top & freestanding, acrylic and whirlpool & spa baths.
You are covered for a year from the day of the repair. If anything isn’t right, ring us and we will sort it.

Common problems we fix in Knollbury
Most bath damage comes from something dropped: a shampoo bottle, a shower head, a tile or a tool during a refit. On enamelled baths, any chip down to the metal will start to rust.
Keep an eye out for any of the following:
- Scuffs and scratches in the surface
- Hairline or through cracks in acrylic
- Rust by the waste and overflow
- Chips under the taps

Aftercare tips
Most damage we see is avoidable. A few tips:
- Get any new chip repaired before it rusts
- Ensure an acrylic bath is firm underfoot
- Don’t leave razors or cans standing in the bath
- Cover the bath during DIY or decorating
A repaired bath needs no special treatment, just sensible cleaning. Skip bleach and gritty creams.
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.
DIY kit or professional repair?
A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it will not stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, then guarantee it for a year.
Your questions about bath repair in Knollbury
What information do you need?
Send photos through the quote form or call 0345 017 0787, and we’ll do the rest.
Can a cracked acrylic bath be fixed?
In most cases. We reinforce the crack from behind, then fill and refinish the front, so access behind the panel is important.
Is there any odour?
There can be some smell while we work, which is why we ventilate. It fades as everything cures.
Is a holed acrylic bath repairable?
In most cases. Photos of the hole and the underside help us check.
How quickly can you book me in?
It depends on the time of year and where you are. We will offer you dates when we send your quote.
Can landlords book you?
Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as householders in Knollbury.
How do I get a price for bath repair in Knollbury?
Repairs from £95. The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from photos. You’ll get a fixed figure before booking.
Will the repair last?
Done properly, a repair lasts for years, and ours come with a one-year guarantee. Gentle cleaning helps it last.
How the visit works
It’s a tidy, low-fuss visit. We confirm the time with you beforehand, protect the area, then carry out the work, which normally takes a morning or an afternoon. If anything looks different from your pictures, we’ll talk to you before going ahead.
- We protect the bath and the floor around it.
- We clean, key and degrease the damage.
- We fill it, let it set, then sand it flush.
- Colour and gloss are matched to the surrounding surface.
- We clear up and give you the curing time, normally until the day after.
Preparing for the visit
- Let us know if it has been repaired before
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
- Ensure the area is dry
How to get a price
No survey visit is needed: we price from pictures. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through, and we will come back with a fixed figure.
Advice
Why repair rather than replace?
If the rest of the bath is in good condition, a repair is almost always the better choice. It costs less, takes less time and causes far less upheaval, and you keep the bath you chose. If the entire surface is worn, re-enamelling may make more sense, and we’ll tell you. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. A repair is priced on what needs doing, not where you live. The full price is agreed before booking, with no extras added later.

Materials and what they mean for the repair
Cast iron
A cast iron bath is heavy enough that most people never want to move it. Only the enamel surface wears or chips, and that is what we repair.
Acrylic
Acrylic feels warm and is light, but it relies on good support. Repairs to cracks are reinforced from the back.

For landlords and businesses
We’re used to working with agents and managing companies. Just send pictures, the address and how to get access.
We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, putting right damage done during fitting so nothing needs replacing. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.
Honest limits
We’d rather lose a job than do one that will not last, so here’s what a repair can’t put right:
- Leaking fittings, which need a plumber
- A bath that moves underfoot, until its support is fixed
- Rust that has eaten right through a steel bath
Send us pictures and we will tell you honestly.
