Do you need bath repair in Port Logan?
Nearly all the chips we see start with something being dropped: bottles, shower heads, tiles and tools. On enamelled baths, a chip that reaches the metal lets water in, and rust follows.
Typical reasons for a call-out include:
- Scuffs and scratches in the surface
- Chips under the taps
- Rust by the waste and overflow
- An old repair that has yellowed or come loose

- How long it needs to cure
- Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price

Port Logan: your questions answered
I tried a repair kit. Can you fix it?
Regularly. We strip it out, deal with any rust and repair it again.
How long does the repair take to cure?
Normally within a day, though it depends on what we’ve done.
Is repairing better than replacing?
Usually, if the item is otherwise sound. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. If replacing would be better, we’ll say so.
Do you cover Port Logan?
Yes, we do. We send a technician to Port Logan for every job, and the price is the same as everywhere else.
Do I have to be there?
Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. After that, you can carry on with your day.
How much does bath repair cost in Port Logan?
Prices start from £95. Every job gets a fixed price based on photos of the damage. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo and your postcode.
Is there a guarantee?
Yes: twelve months. If there is a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.
Is a cracked acrylic bath repairable?
Usually, yes, as long as we can get to the back of the crack to support it. Take off the bath panel and check, or send us a picture.
What we cannot put right
Not everything can be repaired, and we’d rather say so up front. Repairs will not solve:
- Rust that has eaten right through a steel bath
- Water coming from the waste or taps rather than the bath
- A bath that moves underfoot, until its support is fixed
Send us pictures and we will tell you honestly before booking.
What we work on
- Pressed steel enamel
- Acrylic
- Cast iron enamel
- Roll-top & freestanding
- Whirlpool & spa baths

DIY repairs versus a professional job
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair will not last.
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. 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.
Repairing versus replacing in Port Logan
People frequently assume a cracked or chipped bath has to come out. Normally it doesn’t: a repair keeps the bath in service for years, without the cost and upheaval of replacing it. Our bath repair starts from £95. We charge the same wherever you are, so there is no premium for Port Logan. What changes the price is the job itself: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

Different materials, different repairs
Acrylic
Acrylic baths are moulded sheet reinforced underneath. There is no rust, but cracks, holes and scratches happen, and a crack only stays repaired if it’s supported underneath.
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.
