How we handle bath repair in Weston
A typical bath repair is a few hours’ work, and you can typically bathe again the following day. There’s no need to book a plumber or tiler, because the bath does not move. Common call-outs are for a cracked acrylic bath and deep scratches in acrylic, on roll-top & freestanding, pressed steel enamel and whirlpool & spa baths.
All of our repairs are guaranteed for twelve months, and the guarantee is the same wherever you live. We return to put right any problem with the work.

What happens on the day
Once we’re through the door, we keep the work contained to the one room. Surfaces nearby are masked off, the job takes a few hours, depending on the damage, depending on what we find, 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 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.
- The repair is left to cure, and most baths can be used the next day.
Before we arrive
- Let the surface dry out before the visit
- Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
Getting a price

Advice
Repair or replace: which is better?
Cast iron baths in particular are worth repairing: getting one out, particularly from an upstairs bathroom, is a big job, and replacing like for like is not cheap. Repairing it leaves it where it is. Our bath repair starts from £95. The price depends on the type and amount of damage, what it’s made of and how many items we do on one visit. You get a fixed price from your photos, so you know the cost before booking.
What you get with us
- Nothing taken out or refitted
- One price list for the entire UK
- A year’s guarantee on all work
- Colours mixed by hand to suit your surface

Materials and what they mean for the repair
Composite and resin
Composite baths are dense and solid. Chips and scratches are filled and matched, in much the same way.
Cast iron
Cast iron is heavy and rigid, finished with fired enamel. Chips can rust if left, but the body of the bath lasts a very long time, so it’s always worth repairing.
Weston questions
What about rust by the waste?
Yes, it’s one of the most common repairs we do. We take it back to sound metal, seal it, fill it and match the colour.
How long before I can use the bath?
Typically the following day. We will tell you the exact curing time when we finish.
Do you repair coloured baths?
Yes, coloured baths are no problem. We tint the finish to your bath on site.
Will it make a mess?
Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we leave the room clean.
Can you repair a crack in an acrylic bath?
Usually, yes, if we can reach the underside to reinforce it. Take off the bath panel and check, or send us a picture.
Does someone need to be in?
Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. You do not need to watch us work.
How soon can you come?
It depends on the time of year and where you are. We’ll offer you dates when we send your quote.
Is there a guarantee?
Yes, for a year. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.
What affects the price in Weston
Repairs from £95. Each job gets its own fixed quote. These are the things that affect it:
- The material and finish
- How many items we do on one visit
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- How many areas need work
Our prices are the same across the UK, so there’s no premium for Weston. The job itself decides the price: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.
Getting a price from pictures
Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what we need:
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- Where you are, by postcode
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
We price from photos so you don’t have to wait in for a survey. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through, and we’ll come back with a fixed figure.
When a repair isn’t the answer
In fairness, there are a few things a repair will not fix:
- Leaks from the waste or overflow fittings (a plumber’s job)
- Rust that has eaten right through a steel bath
- A bath that flexes because its feet or cradle have failed (that needs fixing first)
If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think before you book.
Materials we repair
- Acrylic
- Whirlpool & spa baths
- Cast iron enamel
- Roll-top & freestanding

Do you need bath repair in Weston?
A cracked acrylic bath generally wasn’t supported properly. Loose legs, no proper cradle or a floor that gives let the bath move until it cracks.
If you can see any of these, send us a photo:
- A failed DIY repair that’s discoloured or lifting
- Scratches you can feel with a fingernail
- A chipped rim or side
- A cracked acrylic bath
What your quote should include
- Whether a trained technician does the job
- How the room is protected while they work
- What the guarantee covers, and for how long
- Whether the colour is mixed to match
How to look after the repair
Aftercare is simple:
- Don’t leave a fresh chip for long
- Keep abrasive pads and gritty cleaners away from the bath
- Cover the bath during DIY or decorating
- Stick to mild cleaners and a soft cloth
Use gentle, non-abrasive cleaners and avoid dropping heavy items on the repaired area. Deal with new chips early, before rust sets in.
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.
Can I fix it myself?
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.
