Our bath repair service in BS14

We see 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 roll-top & freestanding, pressed steel enamel and whirlpool & spa baths, and common reasons people contact us are a kit repair that didn’t last and holes from dropped items.

On the day itself, there’s little for you to do. Show us the job, point us to the room, and we’ll get on with it. Most visits take a morning or an afternoon, tidy-up included.

  1. We start by looking at the damage and confirming the plan with you.
  2. Loose enamel, rust and dirt are removed so the repair can bond.
  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. The repair is polished to the same gloss as the bath and left to cure.

What it costs in BS14

Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Rather than charging by the hour, we price the whole job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and combining items on one visit brings it down.

What you get with us

  • No need to remove anything
  • We come to you, anywhere in the UK
  • Most jobs done in one visit
  • Colour mixed on the day to match

How to get a price

Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: photograph the damage, then the whole bath, include your postcode and send them over. What comes back is a fixed quote, not a guess.

Near you in Stockwood

Around Stockwood, we work in homes near Waycroft Academy, Brislington Enterprise College and Hengrove Park. You’ll also find Christ The Servant (under half a mile south-west) and St Bernadette Catholic Secondary School (0.9 miles west). The nearest railway station is Keynsham station, about 2 miles east of the centre. Further afield, we also cover the area around The Galleries (3.6 miles north-west) and British Empire and Commonwealth Museum (3 miles north-west). The countryside around Stockwood includes Hunstrete Lake and Brandon Hill.

How to look after the repair

Once the work has cured, treat it gently:

  • Use a soft cloth and washing-up liquid for everyday cleaning
  • Keep abrasive pads and gritty cleaners away from the bath
  • Don’t leave a fresh chip for long
  • Keep metal cans and razors off the surface

Use gentle, non-abrasive cleaners and avoid dropping heavy items on the repaired area. Deal with new chips early, before rust can start.

Don’t leave a chip on a steel or cast iron bath. Once water reaches the metal, rust begins, and a rust spot is a bigger repair than a clean chip.

Prices and what affects them

Prices start from £95. Every quote is fixed and free. What we look at:

  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • The material
  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out

Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is typically a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

Quotes from your photos

Before you send pictures, a few simple things make all the difference:

  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • The material, if you know it
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size

Most customers in BS14 get their price from pictures. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we’ll send back a fixed quote and some dates.

Can I fix it myself?

What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. 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 won’t stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.

Repairs by material

Pressed steel

Under the enamel of a steel bath is thin metal. Exposed steel rusts quickly, so the metal is treated and sealed before the repair.

Composite and resin

Composite baths are dense and solid, and frequently freestanding. Chips and scratches can be filled and colour matched, just like other baths.

Honest limits

It helps to know what we can’t do too:

  • Flexing caused by a failed cradle or loose feet
  • Leaking fittings, which need a plumber
  • Cracks in acrylic we can’t reach from underneath

BS14 questions

I’m a tenant. Can you help?

Yes, but check with your landlord or agent first. Landlords are frequently glad to have it sorted before the end of a tenancy.

Do I need to be at home?

We need someone to let us in. You do not need to watch us work.

What do you need from me?

Send photos through the quote form or call 0345 017 0787.

What happens once I’ve sent pictures?

You get a fixed quote and available dates. If anything’s unclear, we will ask for another photo.

Will you leave a mess?

Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we take our waste away with us.

Will the price change on the day?

The price is fixed for what the pictures show. If there is more, we will tell you before starting.

How invisible is a bath 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.
