How to look after the repair

To keep it looking its best:

  • Avoid scourers, wire wool and gritty cream cleaners
  • Clean with warm water and a mild detergent
  • Protect the bath with a towel when doing jobs nearby
  • Store metal items away from the bath

In the first few days, avoid putting weight or bottles on the repair. After that, clean it as you would the rest of the bath.

A chip on a metal bath shouldn’t be left. Once water reaches the metal, rust begins, turning a quick repair into a bigger one.

Bath repair in Pill without replacing anything

Repairing baths is what we do most. Chips on the rim, rust around the waste and cracks in acrylic are all fixed without removing the bath, usually in a single visit. Whether it’s a kit repair that didn’t last and hairline or through cracks in acrylic, we can generally put it right, whatever the material.

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

Common problems we fix in Pill

Dropped items cause the majority of chips, 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.

Keep an eye out for these signs:

  • Cracks in an acrylic bath
  • Chips on the rim or sides
  • Scuffs and scratches in the surface
  • Impact holes in acrylic

Questions from Pill

What happens if you find more damage?

Your quote covers the damage in the pictures. If there’s more, we will tell you before starting.

Something went through my bath. Can it be fixed?

Often, if there’s access underneath. The hole is backed, filled and refinished to match.

Are you accredited?

Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.

Can you repair a chip on a coloured bath?

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

Is there a guarantee?

Every repair comes with our one-year guarantee. We will explain what it covers when we quote.

Can you repair several things at once?

Yes. Doing several items on one visit usually costs less than separate visits. Include photos of each item.

What areas do you cover?

We cover the entire UK, including Pill and the rest of North Somerset. Send your postcode with your pictures and we will confirm dates.

Is there a call-out fee?

Travel is included in the price, with the same prices everywhere we work.

How we price bath repair

Repairs from £95. You will not pay by the hour. The price is based on:

  • Doing more than one item at once
  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • The material and finish
  • How much damage there is

Set against the cost of replacement, repairing usually costs far less, because there’s no removal, plumbing or making good. The quote lists exactly what you’re paying for.

Getting a price from photos

You can typically get a fixed quote without us visiting. To make it quick:

  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • Details of any past repairs

Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: photograph the damage, then the entire bath, add your postcode and send them to us. What comes back is a fixed price, not a guess.

What your bath is made of matters

Composite and resin

Composite baths are dense and solid, and frequently freestanding. Chips and scratches can be filled and colour-matched, just like other baths.

Acrylic

Acrylic is light and warm to the touch, but it relies on good support. Cracks are strengthened from behind before the front is finished.

Repair or replace: which is better?

Replacing a fitted bath normally means a plumber, removing the old bath, making good the tiles and panel and disposing of the old one. A repair deals only with the damage in one visit. Prices start from £95. Rather than charging by the hour, we price the entire job up front. Damage, material and access decide it.

What you get with us

  • We leave the room as we found it
  • No need to remove anything
  • One visit for most repairs
  • We come to you, anywhere in the UK

Landlord and trade work in Pill

If you manage property in Pill, we will quote for several properties at once. Send photos for each one and we will come back with a combined price.

For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover. We can visit several plots in one trip to keep costs down.

Can I fix it myself?

It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.

If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely and work on a clean, dry surface, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.

How the visit works

When we visit, the technician arrives at the agreed time, protects the room with dust sheets and masking and gets started. The job usually takes a few hours, depending on the damage. We tidy up before we leave and tell you when it’s ready to use.

  1. First, we check the damage against your pictures and agree the plan.
  2. Loose enamel, rust and dirt are removed so the repair can bond.
  3. The damage is filled in layers and shaped to the curve of 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.

Before we arrive

  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
  • Have a window or extractor fan available
  • Keep a parking space free if you can

How to get a price

To get a price, send two or three pictures through our quote form or ring us. We’ll tell you honestly if a repair is the right fix.
