How we handle bath repair in Weston
Bath repair is our most common job. A chip by the taps, a crack in the base and a rust spot by the plughole are all repaired in place, normally in a single visit. Typical jobs include a chip where the taps sit and cracks in an acrylic bath, in pressed steel enamel, cast iron enamel and whirlpool & spa baths.
A one-year guarantee comes as standard, so you are covered after the visit.

Different materials, different repairs
Cast iron
Cast iron baths are thick and very strong, with a fused enamel surface. Chips can rust if left, but the body of the bath lasts a very long time, so it’s always worth repairing.
Pressed steel
Under the enamel of a steel bath is thin metal. Once a chip exposes it, rust follows quickly, so the metal is treated and sealed before the repair.
Can I fix it myself?
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, and the work is guaranteed.
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it will not stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.

Weston: 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.
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
Just keep them out of the work area. We’ll let you know when it’s safe to use again.
What happens if you find more damage?
We will show you and explain before doing anything extra. You will not be charged for anything you haven’t agreed.
Can you quote from pictures?
Yes, almost always. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed quote.
What does bath repair cost?
Prices start from £95. Every job gets a fixed quote based on pictures of the damage. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo and your postcode.
How invisible is a bath repair?
The goal is a repair that blends in. How well it disappears depends on the condition of the rest of the bath.
Can you repair a chip on a coloured bath?
Yes, we match coloured baths too. The colour is tinted by hand on the day.
Do you do work for letting agents?
We do, regularly. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.

Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £95. We don’t charge extra for travel to Weston. The price comes down to:
- Access to the area
- The material and finish
- The size and number of damaged areas
- What kind of damage it is
The price reflects the work involved, not your postcode. You’ll see the full price before you book, with nothing added on the day.
Getting a price from pictures
Phone photos are fine. Make sure they show:
- Natural light rather than flash
- The material, if you know it
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- Where you are, by postcode
The quickest way to a price is to send a couple of pictures through our quote form or ring us. We’ll tell you honestly if a repair is the right fix.
How the visit works
You do not need to empty the room beforehand. We bring everything we need with us, lay protective sheets and get going once we have agreed what we are doing. Most jobs take a few hours, depending on the damage, and you’re welcome to carry on with your day while we work.
- We protect the bath and the floor around it.
- We clean, key and degrease the damage.
- We fill it, let it set, then sand it flush.
- Colour and gloss are matched to the surrounding surface.
- We tidy up and tell you when the bath can be used, normally the next day.
Preparing for the visit

- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work

Keeping it looking good
A little care keeps the finish looking good. We recommend:
- Don’t leave a fresh chip for long
- Check that an acrylic bath does not move when you stand in it
- Protect the bath with a towel when doing jobs nearby
- Rinse the bath after use, especially in hard water areas
For the first few days, keep heavy bottles off the repaired spot. After that, clean it as you would the rest of the bath.
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.
What we’re called out for in Weston
Glass and heavy bottles cause more chips than anything else. Taps and wastes cause problems too: water collects there, so chips nearby rust quickly.
Clients typically contact us about:
- Scratches you can feel with a fingernail
- A failed DIY repair that’s discoloured or lifting
- Chips on the rim or sides
- Cracks in an acrylic bath
What to look for in a quote
- What aftercare is recommended
- Who will actually do the work
- Whether there are any call-out or travel charges

Repair or replace in Weston?
If the rest of the bath is in good condition, a repair is almost always the better choice. It costs less, takes less time and causes far less upheaval, and you keep the bath you chose. If the entire surface is worn, re-enamelling may make more sense, and we will tell you. Our bath repair starts from £95. We charge the same wherever you are, with no extra for Weston. The job itself decides the price: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.
