Bath repair at your home in Yatton

Whether your bath is steel, cast iron or acrylic, we can repair it. The method changes with the material: metal baths need any rust dealt with first, and acrylic cracks need support from behind. Typical jobs include deep scratches in acrylic and rust by the waste and overflow, across cast iron enamel, whirlpool & spa baths and acrylic.

You’re covered for a year from the day of the repair. Just call us if there is a problem and we’ll come back.

Should you replace it?

When the bath is otherwise sound, repairing beats replacing. 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’ll tell you. Our bath repair starts from £95. Our prices are the same across the UK, with no extra for Yatton. The job itself decides the price: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

Yatton questions

What areas do you cover?

We work UK-wide. Prices don’t change with location.

Are you accredited?

Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.

Is a bath repair durable?

It should, as long as the bath is firm and the area was prepared well. It carries our one-year guarantee.

Do you charge for travel?

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

When can I have a bath again?

Normally by the following day, though it depends on what we’ve done.

What if the damage is worse than the photos show?

We stop, show you and agree any change before carrying on. Nothing extra is done without your say-so.

Is there a guarantee?

Yes: twelve months. If there is a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.

Can you redo an old repair?

Yes. We take out the old repair and do it properly. Mention it when you send pictures.

Aftercare tips

So the finish stays in good condition:

  • Rinse it down after each bath
  • Put a towel in the bath if you’re working above it
  • Get a dripping tap fixed promptly
  • Check that an acrylic bath doesn’t move when you stand in it

In the first few days, avoid putting weight or bottles on the repair. After that, clean it as you would the rest of the bath, avoiding abrasives.

Do not leave a chip on a steel or cast iron bath. Water gets to the metal and rust starts, turning a quick repair into a bigger one.

What your bath is made of matters

Cast iron

Cast iron is heavy and rigid, finished with fired enamel. Chips can rust if left, but the bath itself lasts for generations, which makes it well worth repairing.

Acrylic

Acrylic is light and warm to the touch, but it relies on good support. Repairs to cracks are reinforced from the back.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it will not stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.

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, a professional repair is worth it.

How it works

Your technician turns up when we said we would, introduces themselves and checks the damage against your photos first. Dust sheets and masking tape go down before any work starts. The work itself takes a morning or an afternoon, and the room is left clean and tidy.

  1. First, we check the damage against your photos and agree the plan.
  2. Any rust and loose material comes out, and the area is degreased.
  3. The damage is filled in layers and shaped to the curve of the bath.
  4. We tint the finish by hand to match the bath.
  5. Finally, it’s polished to match the shine and left to cure.

Before we arrive

  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
  • Clear the area around the damage
  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work

Advice

What a repair cannot fix

A repair isn’t right for every job, for example:

  • A whole bath that’s dull or worn, where a full re-enamel is the better fix
  • Cracks in parts of an acrylic bath we cannot get to from below
  • Leaking fittings, which need a plumber

If in doubt, send pictures and we will say what we think before booking.

Materials we work on in Yatton

  • Pressed steel enamel
  • Acrylic
  • Whirlpool & spa baths
  • Cast iron enamel
  • Roll-top & freestanding

What we’re called out for in Yatton

Dropped items cause the majority of chips, and a lot happen during bathroom refits. Cracks in acrylic have a different cause: poor support underneath, so the bath flexes when it’s full.

It’s worth getting a quote if you see:

  • Damage beneath the taps
  • Rust by the waste and overflow
  • Impact holes in acrylic
  • A cracked acrylic bath

Before you book anyone

  • What aftercare is recommended
