Repair or replace in Old Sodbury?
When the bath is otherwise sound, repairing beats replacing. 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. Prices start from £95. A repair is priced on what needs doing, not your postcode. The full price is agreed before booking.
What you get with us
- No need to remove anything
- One price list for the entire UK
- Colour-matched on site
- Dust sheets down, tidy finish

Work for landlords and builders
We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Send the address, pictures and access details and we will handle the rest.
Letting agents often send us pictures 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.
What your bath is made of matters
Cast iron
Cast iron is heavy and rigid, 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.
Pressed steel
Pressed steel is thinner and lighter, with an enamel finish like cast iron. Chips rust quickly on steel, particularly by the plughole, so early repairs matter.

Old Sodbury: your questions answered
Do you hold any accreditations?
We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.
Can you repair several things at once?
Of course, and it normally saves money. Just add the extra items to your pictures and we will quote them together.
Can you repair a hole in a bath?
In most cases. Photos of the hole and the underside help us check.
Can I get a quote without a visit?
Yes, almost always. Clear photos let us give you a fixed quote without visiting.
Will it make a mess?
Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we leave the room clean.
Do you work in Old Sodbury?
Yes, we do. We send a technician to Old Sodbury for every job, and the price is the same as everywhere else.
Can landlords book you?
We do, regularly. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.
Does someone need to be in?
Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time that suits you.
What affects the price in Old Sodbury
Prices start from £95. Prices are worked out job by job, from your pictures. What matters most is:
- How hard the colour is to match
- The type of damage
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
The price depends on how much damage there is and what kind, the material and how many items we do on one visit. You get a fixed quote from your photos, so there are no surprises on the day.
Quotes from your pictures
We price nearly every job from pictures. This is what to send:
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- Something in shot to show the size
- The material, if you know it
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
A quote takes minutes to ask for: take one close-up and one wider shot of the bath, include your postcode and send them to us. You’ll get a fixed price, not an estimate.
When a repair is not the answer
We will always be straight with you, so here’s what a repair cannot fix:
- A bath that moves underfoot, until its support is fixed
- Wear across the entire surface, which needs re-enamelling
- Cracks in parts of an acrylic bath we cannot get to from below
Not sure? Send pictures and we will give you a straight answer before booking.

How the visit works
Arrival times are agreed in advance, so you know when to expect us. On site, it takes two to three hours for most chips. We leave the room clean and ready to use once it has cured.
- First, we check the damage against your pictures and agree the plan.
- Any rust and loose material comes out, and the area is degreased.
- We build up the filler in layers, shaping it to the bath.
- The colour is tinted by hand until it matches.
- Finally, it’s polished to match the shine and left to cure.
How to prepare
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
- Tell us about parking, stairs or access
- Keep a parking space free if you can
Getting a price
The quickest way to a price is to send two or three pictures using our quote form or ring us. We’ll tell you honestly if a repair is the right fix.

How to look after the repair
Once the work has cured, treat it gently:
- Store metal items away from the bath
- Make sure an acrylic bath is firm underfoot
- Stick to mild cleaners and a soft cloth
- Cover the bath during DIY or decorating
Give the repair the full curing time we recommend before running a bath. From then on, mild cleaning is all it needs.
A chip on a metal bath shouldn’t be left. Water gets to the metal and rust starts, turning a quick repair into a bigger one.
