The process
Once we’re through the door, the aim is to do the job without disturbing the rest of your home. Surfaces nearby are masked off, the job takes a few hours, and we finish by cleaning up and talking you through the result.
- We start by cleaning the damage and taking out loose enamel and rust.
- We fill the damage and sand it flush with the surrounding surface.
- We mix the colour on the day to match your bath’s exact shade.
- Finish coats go on, then the repair is polished to blend in.
- Once it has cured, usually by the following day, the bath is ready to use.
Before we arrive
- Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
- Have a window or extractor fan available
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
How to get a price

Advice
How we handle bath repair in Westbury-on-Trym
It pays to repair bath damage while it’s small. Exposed metal on enamelled baths soon rusts, and on acrylic, a crack keeps spreading while the bath flexes. A repair stops both. We work on pressed steel enamel, acrylic and cast iron enamel, and the jobs we see most are a hole punched through by something heavy and chips caused by builders.
We guarantee the work for a year. If there’s a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it.

- Chips under the taps
- An old repair that has yellowed or come loose
- A chipped rim or side
- Snagging damage from a refit

FAQs for Westbury-on-Trym
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
Usually, yes. The old repair comes out first, so let us know about it.
Can you match an avocado or pink bath?
Yes, we match coloured baths too. The colour is tinted by hand on the day.
How long does the repair take to cure?
Most baths can be used the day after. We confirm the time before we leave.
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
We can work for tenants, landlords or agents. Just make sure the landlord agrees.
Will you leave a mess?
No. The work area is masked and covered, and we take our waste away with us.
How quickly can you book me in?
That depends on our diary for your area. We will offer you dates when we send your quote.
What information do you need?
A close-up, a wider photo and your postcode. Then we’ll agree a date.
Is there a call-out fee?
We do not add a call-out fee. Your fixed quote includes everything.
What your bath is made of matters
Composite and resin
Composite baths are dense and solid. Chips and scratches can be filled and colour matched, in much the same way.
Pressed steel
Steel baths and trays have a thin metal body under the enamel. Exposed steel rusts quickly, so the metal is treated and sealed before the repair.
What we cannot put right
A repair isn’t right for every job, including:
- A steel bath rusted through
- A whole bath that is dull or worn, where a full re-enamel is the better fix
- Leaks from the waste or overflow fittings (a plumber’s job)
Not sure? Send photos and we’ll give you a straight answer.
What we work on
- Cast iron enamel

Should you replace it?
When the bath is otherwise sound, repairing beats replacing. It’s quicker, cheaper and far less disruptive, and you keep the bath you chose. If the entire surface is worn, re-enamelling may make more sense, and we will tell you. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Compared with replacing, repairing generally costs far less, because there’s no removal, plumbing or making good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

Aftercare tips
To keep it looking its best:
- Put a towel in the bath if you’re working above it
- If an acrylic bath flexes, have its feet adjusted
- Store metal items away from the bath
- Use a soft cloth and washing-up liquid for everyday cleaning
For the first few days, keep heavy bottles off the repaired spot. After that, normal gentle cleaning is fine without abrasive products.
Rust spreads under enamel faster than most people expect. A chip the size of a fingernail can become a much larger patch if it’s left for months, so early repair keeps the cost down.
Should I try a DIY kit first?
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it does not stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.
For a hairline mark somewhere you will never see, a kit may be enough. 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.
Prices and what affects them
Repairs from £95. We price every job individually, from your pictures. The main factors are:
- The type of damage
- How hard the colour is to match
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- How many areas need work
It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.
Getting a price from photos
Phone photos are fine, there is no need for anything special. Ensure they show:
- Natural light rather than flash
- A wider photo showing the entire bath
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- The material, if you know it
The quickest way to a price is to send two or three pictures using our quote form or ring us. We’ll say immediately whether it can be repaired.
