Bath Repair in Wapley
Chip and crack repairs to enamel, acrylic and cast iron baths in Wapley, carried out at your home and guaranteed for a year.
- Repairs from £95
- Scuffs and scratches in the surface
- Chips caused by builders
DIY repairs versus a professional job
A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, 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 isn’t prepared the repair won’t last.
Bath repair in Wapley, done in place
A repair fixes just the damaged area and blends it into the rest of the bath, which costs far less than replacing a fitted bath. You can typically use the bath the day after. We regularly repair whirlpool & spa baths, pressed steel enamel and roll-top & freestanding, and common reasons people get in touch are snagging damage from a refit and rust spots around the plughole.
All of our repairs are guaranteed for twelve months. If something goes wrong with the work, we come back.

When can you do it?
That depends on our diary for your area. We’ll offer you dates when we send your quote.
Do you cover the entire of South Gloucestershire?
The whole UK, including all of South Gloucestershire. Just include your postcode and we will confirm dates.
Can landlords book you?

What bath repair costs
Prices start from £95. Each job gets its own fixed price. These are the things that affect it:
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- Unusual colours or finishes
- What the surface is made of
- What kind of damage it is
Our prices are the same across the UK, so there is no premium for Wapley. The job itself decides the price: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.
Getting a price from photos
Most quotes are done from photos alone. To help us price it:
- The material, if you know it
- One picture of the whole bath
- Natural light rather than flash
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
Most clients in Wapley get their price from photos. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.
Different materials, different repairs
Composite and resin
Stone resin and composite baths are heavy and solid. Chips and scratches can be filled and colour-matched, just like other baths.
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.
What we do, step by step
On the day, we arrive at the time we have agreed, cover the area with dust sheets and masking, and set to work. Expect it to take a few hours, depending on the damage. We clean up when we are done and tell you when it’s ready to use.
- We start by looking at the damage and confirming the plan with you.
- Loose enamel, rust and dirt are removed so the repair can bond.
- We build up the filler in layers, shaping it to the bath.
- We tint the finish by hand to match the bath.
- The repair is polished to the same gloss as the bath and left to cure.
Getting ready for the visit
- Point us to the nearest place to park
- Make sure the room can be ventilated
- Tell us about parking, stairs or access
Getting a price
Getting a price is easy: snap the damage close up and then the entire item, send them over with your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote. There is no charge for the quote and no obligation.

What we are called out for in Wapley
Rust normally starts where water sits, by the plughole, beneath dripping taps or in an unrepaired chip. Once water reaches the steel or iron, rust spreads under the enamel.
Typical reasons for a call-out include:
- A chipped rim or side
- Rust spots around the plughole
- A kit repair that didn’t last
- Deep scratches in acrylic
What your quote should include
- Whether the price covers travel
- What aftercare is recommended
- How the room is protected while they work
- Whether they match the colour on site
Aftercare tips
Looking after the surface is easy:
- Don’t leave a fresh chip for long
- Give the bath a quick rinse after use
- Protect the bath with a towel when doing jobs nearby
- If an acrylic bath flexes, have its feet adjusted
In the first few days, avoid putting weight or bottles on the repair. After that, normal gentle cleaning is fine.
Stop using the bath if a crack lets water through. Water under the bath can damage the floor and the ceiling below.
Other services in Wapley
Landlord and trade work in Wapley
We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Wapley as well as homeowners. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it costs much less than replacing.
Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover, so there is no need to replace a damaged item at the last minute. We can visit several plots in one trip.
Why repair rather than replace?
People often assume a cracked or chipped bath has to come out. Generally it doesn’t: a repair keeps the bath in service for years, without the cost and upheaval of replacing it. Prices start from £95. Compared with replacing, a repair is typically a fraction of the price, because there is no removal, plumbing or making good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.
What you get with us
- No need to remove anything
- We leave the room as we found it
- We come to you, anywhere in the UK
- Same prices wherever you are
