How to look after the repair

Once the work has cured, treat it gently:

  • Get any new chip repaired before it rusts
  • Do not leave razors or cans standing in the bath
  • Cover the bath during DIY or decorating
  • Fix dripping taps early to stop staining and limescale

Use gentle, non-abrasive cleaners and try not to drop heavy bottles on the repair. Deal with new chips early, before rust sets in.

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.

Bath repair at your home in Lower Hazel

A typical bath repair is a few hours’ work, and you can normally bathe again the day after. There is no need to book a plumber or tiler, because nothing is disconnected. Whether it’s chips under the taps and a cracked acrylic bath, we can typically put it right, on whirlpool & spa baths, roll-top & freestanding and pressed steel enamel alike.

The work is covered for a year after we finish. Just call us if there’s a problem and we’ll come back.

When to call us in Lower Hazel

Rust usually starts where water sits, around the waste, under the taps or in an old chip. Water on bare metal causes rust that creeps under the surrounding enamel.

Common reasons people in Lower Hazel contact us are:

  • Chips caused by builders
  • Chips on the rim or sides
  • A failed DIY repair that is discoloured or lifting
  • Rust spots around the plughole

Choosing a repair company

What happens on the day

We turn up when we said we would and checks the damage against your photos first. Dust sheets and masking tape go down before we open a single tin. The work itself takes a morning or an afternoon, and the room is left clean and tidy.

  1. First, we check the damage against your photos and agree the plan.
  2. Loose enamel, rust and dirt are removed so the repair can bond.
  3. We build up the filler in layers, shaping it to the bath.
  4. The colour is tinted by hand until it matches.
  5. Finally, it’s polished to match the shine and left to cure.

How to prepare

  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
  • Point us to the nearest place to park

Ask for a price

You do not need a survey visit. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we will come back to you with a fixed figure.

Related advice

When we would advise against a repair

Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:

  • Acrylic cracks with no access behind them
  • A bath worn all over, where resurfacing makes more sense
  • A bath that moves underfoot, until its support is fixed

Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly before booking.

Materials we repair

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

Questions from Lower Hazel

How quickly can you book me in?

Your quote comes with available dates. If it’s urgent, say so and we will do what we can.

What do you need from me?

Some photos, your postcode and how to reach you. On the day, access to the room.

Is a bath repair permanent?

Done properly, a repair lasts for years, and it’s guaranteed for a year. Gentle cleaning helps it last.

Can you redo someone else’s repair?

Yes, regularly. Removing the old work can add time, and that is in the quote.

Do you work in Lower Hazel?

Yes. We cover the entire UK and come to Lower Hazel and the rest of South Gloucestershire. Send pictures and we will quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

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 worth repairing rather than replacing?

In most cases, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. We will be honest if it’s not worth it.

What happens once I’ve sent photos?

We come back with a fixed price, usually with dates to choose from. There’s no obligation to book.

What bath repair costs

Repairs from £95. Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we look at:

  • What kind of damage it is
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • What the surface is made of
  • 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 photos for a quote

Before you send pictures, a few simple things make all the difference:

  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • A picture taken from further back
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • Natural light rather than flash

To get a price, send two or three pictures using our quote form or call us. We’ll say straight away if a repair is the right fix.

Repairs by material

Acrylic

Acrylic feels warm and is light, but it needs firm support underneath. Repairs to cracks are reinforced from the back.

Cast iron

Cast iron baths are thick and very strong, finished with fired enamel. Chips can rust if left, but the body of the bath lasts a very long time, which makes it well worth repairing.

For landlords and businesses

Letting agents frequently send us photos straight from the inventory. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.

Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, putting right damage done during fitting so nothing needs replacing. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

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.

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, it’s worth having it done properly.
