Bath repair at your home in St Briavels
You do not need a new bath because of a chip. We fill the damage, shape it to the curve of the bath and refinish it, mixing the colour on the day. Whether it’s scratches you can feel with a fingernail and damage beneath the taps, we can help, whatever the material.
You are covered for a year from the day of the repair. Just call us if there’s a problem and we’ll come back.

The process
Visits start with a quick look at the job together, so there are no surprises. Next, we cover and mask everything nearby and we start. Allow a few hours, and we will tell you if anything changes.
- We clean the area and remove any loose enamel or rust.
- The chip or crack is filled, then sanded level with the bath.
- We tint the finish on the day to suit your bath’s shade of white or colour.
- Finish coats go on, then the repair is polished to blend in.
- We leave it to cure; you can usually use the bath the following day.
Getting ready for the visit
- Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
- Open a window if you can

Advice
DIY repairs versus a professional job
If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, make sure the area is clean and completely dry, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. 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.
Aftercare tips
Once the work has cured, treat it gently:
- Cover the bath during DIY or decorating
- Rinse the bath after use, especially in hard water areas
- Keep metal cans and razors off the surface
- Stick to mild cleaners and a soft cloth
For the first few days, keep heavy bottles off the repaired spot. After that, clean it as you would the rest of the bath, avoiding abrasives.
Small chips are quick to repair. Leave them and they collect dirt, stain and, on metal baths, rust, so early repair saves time and money.
When we’d advise against a repair
We’ll always be straight with you, so here’s what a repair cannot fix:
- Metal that has corroded all the way through
- Cracks in parts of an acrylic bath we cannot get to from below
- Wear across the whole surface, which needs re-enamelling
Not sure? Send photos and we’ll give you a straight answer before booking.

What your bath is made of matters
Acrylic
An acrylic bath is a moulded sheet strengthened from below. 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. The enamel is the part that wears or chips, and that is the part we put right.
Landlords, agents and businesses in St Briavels
We’re used to working with agents and managing companies. Just send pictures, the address and how to get access and we will handle the rest.
Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.

Can you redo an old repair?
Yes, we do this often. The old material comes out, any rust is treated, then we repair it properly.

Repairs from £95. Because every job differs, we price from pictures. You will get a fixed figure before booking.

What do you need from me?

How invisible is a bath repair?
On a bath in good condition, a colour-matched repair is very hard to spot. On older, dull enamel the repair can look glossier than the area around it.

We don’t add a call-out fee. Your fixed price includes everything.
