Bath repair at your home in Priston
Small damage on a bath is worth repairing early. Exposed metal on enamelled baths soon rusts, and on acrylic, a crack keeps spreading while the bath flexes. Repairing it stops the damage getting worse. Whether it’s a kit repair that didn’t last and chips under the taps, we can normally put it right, whatever the material.
Peace of mind is built in: each job carries a one-year guarantee, and we’ll explain exactly what it covers when we quote.

Repair or replace in Priston?
A repair makes sense whenever the damage is localised. It’s a fraction of the cost of a new bath and fitting, it’s done in one visit, and the bathroom stays exactly as it is. Our bath repair starts from £95. Instead of hourly rates, we price the whole job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and combining items on one visit brings it down.
Why us?
- A fixed quote before booking
- Same prices wherever you are
- We’ll tell you if it’s not worth repairing
- CHAS and Constructionline accredited

DIY kit or professional repair?
If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, ensure the area is clean and completely dry, and give it the full curing time. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.
How we price bath repair
Prices start from £95. We do not charge extra for travel to Priston. The price depends on:
- What kind of damage it is
- The size and number of damaged areas
- The colour and finish to match
- Whether we combine several jobs
No two jobs are quite the same, so each one is priced on its own. The size and type of damage, the material and access all make a difference, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.
Send photos for a quote
Phone pictures are fine, there is no need for anything special. Just make sure we can see:
- A picture taken from further back
- The material, if you know it
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- Something in shot to show the size
Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: take one close-up and one wider shot of the bath, include your postcode and send them to us. What comes back is a fixed price, not a guess.
Materials and what they mean for the repair
Pressed steel
Steel baths are lighter than cast iron, but have a similar enamel surface. Exposed steel rusts fast, especially around the waste, so repair chips early.
Acrylic
Acrylic baths are moulded sheet reinforced underneath. They do not rust, but they can crack, scratch or be holed, and a crack only stays repaired if it’s supported underneath.
Keeping it looking good
Looking after the surface is easy, and it makes a real difference:
- Get a dripping tap fixed promptly
- Clean with warm water and a mild detergent
- Protect the bath with a towel when doing jobs nearby
- Rinse the bath after use, especially in hard water areas
Look after the repair the same way as the bath: warm water, washing-up liquid and a soft cloth. Keep scouring pads and gritty cleaners away from it.
Avoid standing in a cracked acrylic bath until it’s fixed. Each time it flexes, the crack grows, and it can start to leak underneath.

Do you need bath repair in Priston?
Many chips happen while the bathroom is being fitted. Tools, tiles and fittings get dropped into the bath, and the damage isn’t always spotted until later. Snagging repairs like these are a regular job for us.
People generally call us after spotting something like this:
- Chips along the edge of the bath
- A failed DIY repair that is discoloured or lifting
- Scuffs and scratches in the surface
- A chip where the taps sit
Questions to ask before booking
- Whether there are any call-out or travel charges
- Whether a trained technician does the job
- What protection goes down before work starts
- What preparation is included
What happens on the day
A typical visit goes like this: we arrive on time, protect everything around the work area, carry out the work and clear up. Allow a few hours, depending on the damage from start to finish. Before we go, we’ll explain how long to leave it and what to avoid for the first few days.
- Dust sheets and masking go down around the bath.
- The damaged area is cleaned, keyed and degreased, and any rust is treated.
- Filler goes in and is sanded flush once it has set.
- We match both the colour and the shine.
- We tidy up and tell you when the bath can be used, typically the following day.
Preparing for the visit
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
- Open a window if you can
- Tell us about parking, stairs or access

Advice
When we would advise against a repair
Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:
- A bath that moves underfoot, until its support is fixed
- A bath worn all over, where resurfacing makes more sense
- Cracks in parts of an acrylic bath we can’t get to from below
If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think.

FAQs for Priston
What happens once I’ve sent pictures?
You get a fixed price and available dates. If we need another angle, we’ll ask.
Can you repair something that is been repaired before?
In most cases. We remove the old repair before doing a new one, so let us know about it.
What happens if you find more damage?
Your quote covers the damage in the photos. If there’s more, we will tell you before starting.
Do you do work for letting agents?
We do, regularly. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.
Is it safe with children and pets around?
Please keep children and pets out of the room during the visit. Everywhere else in the home is fine.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
Generally, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. We’ll be honest if it’s not worth it.
Is it messy?
Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we leave the room clean.
Is there a guarantee?
Yes, for a year. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.
