Bath repair at your home in BA8
We have repaired just about every kind of bath damage: chips from dropped bottles, rust round the plughole, cracks in acrylic and holes from falling tools. All of it is repaired where the bath stands. We regularly repair cast iron enamel, roll-top & freestanding and whirlpool & spa baths, and the jobs we see most are an old repair that has yellowed or come loose and scratches you can feel with a fingernail.
Here’s how a visit generally runs: we arrive at the agreed slot, protect everything around the work area, carry out the work and tidy away. Plan for two to three hours for most chips from start to finish. Before leaving, we tell you when it can be used and what to avoid for the first few days.
- First, we check the damage against your photos and agree the plan.
- Any rust and loose material comes out, and the area is degreased.
- The damage is filled in layers and shaped to the curve of the bath.
- The colour is tinted by hand until it matches.
- The repair is polished to the same gloss as the bath and left to cure.

Landlords, agents and businesses in BA8
Rental properties take more wear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.
We’re used to working with agents and managing companies. Send the address, photos and access details.
When a repair is not the answer
Before booking, it’s worth knowing the limits:
- Rust that has eaten right through a steel bath
- Water coming from the waste or taps rather than the bath
- Cracks in acrylic we can’t reach from underneath
Why repair rather than replace?
Cast iron baths especially are worth keeping: getting one out, particularly from an upstairs bathroom, is a big job, and a like-for-like replacement can be expensive. A repair keeps it in place.
Questions to ask before you book
- The length of the guarantee and what it covers
- A fixed quote, and whether VAT is included
- Whether they match the colour on site
- Whether the price covers travel
How the damage happens
Most bath damage comes from something dropped: bottles, shower heads, tiles and tools. On enamelled baths, a chip that reaches the metal lets water in, and rust follows.
The most common problems we are called about are:
- Cracks in an acrylic bath
- Deep scratches in acrylic
- Chips along the edge of the bath
- A chip where the taps sit
Can I fix it myself?
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is generally the cheaper route.
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair won’t last.
BA8 questions
Do the materials smell?
There can be some smell while we work. It clears as the materials cure.
Is a repair better than a new one?
Normally, if the item is otherwise sound. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. If replacing would be better, we will say so.
Do you do work for letting agents?
We do, regularly. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.
How soon can you come?
Your quote comes with available dates. If it’s urgent, say so and we’ll do what we can.
Is it messy?
Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and we clean up when we’ve finished.
Will I be able to see the repair?
On a bath in good condition, a colour-matched repair is very hard to spot. On worn enamel, it can look shinier than the rest.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Yes, and it’s often cheaper. Just add the extra items to your photos and you will get one combined price.
