About bath repair in BS37
Chips, cracks, rust spots and small holes can be repaired with the bath left exactly where it is. There’s no plumbing to disconnect, your tiles stay as they are, and the finish is matched to the rest of the bath. Typical jobs include a failed DIY repair that’s discoloured or lifting and a chip where the taps sit, in pressed steel enamel, whirlpool & spa baths and acrylic.
Your technician turns up at the time we agreed with you, introduces themselves and looks over the damage before anything else. Dust sheets and masking tape go down before any work starts. Most visits take a few hours, depending on the damage, and the room is left clean and tidy.
- Dust sheets and masking go down around the bath.
- We clean, key and degrease the damage.
- Filler goes in and is sanded flush once it has set.
- We match both the colour and the shine.
- We clear up and give you the curing time, normally until the day after.
Pricing in BS37

What’s near Yate
In Yate, that means homes near Brimsham Green School, The White Lion pub and Parish Church of St Mary the Virgin, among other places. Yate’s nearest station is Yate station, about 0.7 miles south-west. Further afield, we also cover the area around Frenchay Hospital (5.6 miles south-west) and Dodington Carriage Museum (1.6 miles south-east).
How to look after the repair
A little care keeps the finish looking good. We recommend:
- Stick to mild cleaners and a soft cloth
- Put a towel in the bath if you are working above it
- If an acrylic bath flexes, have its feet adjusted
- Get any new chip repaired before it rusts
Do not leave razors, cans or hair grips in the bath, as they can leave rust marks. And fix dripping taps promptly.
Rust spreads under enamel faster than most people expect. Left for months, a small chip can grow into a large rust patch, so it pays to deal with it early.
For landlords and businesses
Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover, saving last-minute replacements. We can visit several plots in one trip.
We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, fixing chips and scratches before handover so nothing needs replacing. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.
DIY kit or professional repair?
For a hairline mark somewhere you will never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is generally the cheaper route.
Common problems we fix in BS37
A cracked acrylic bath normally wasn’t supported properly. Legs that aren’t adjusted, a missing cradle or a soft floor let the base flex.
Signs it’s time to call us include:
- Rust by the waste and overflow
- A chip where the taps sit
- Deep scratches in acrylic
- A failed DIY repair that’s discoloured or lifting
When we’d advise against a repair
We will always be straight with you, so here’s what a repair won’t do:
- Flexing caused by a failed cradle or loose feet
- Cracks in acrylic we can’t reach from underneath
- A bath worn all over, where resurfacing makes more sense
Questions from BS37
Can you repair a crack in an acrylic bath?
Frequently, yes, as long as we can get to the back of the crack to support it. Check under the bath panel, or send us a picture.
Will the repair show?
We aim for a repair you can’t easily find. How well it disappears depends on the condition of the rest of the bath.
Can you fix rust around the plughole?
Yes. We take out the rust and any loose enamel, seal and fill the area, then colour-match the finish.
Can you price it without visiting?
In nearly every case. If photos do not show enough, we will ask for another angle.
Can tenants book a repair?
We can work for tenants, landlords or agents. Get your landlord’s agreement first.
Can you repair a failed DIY repair?
Yes. We take out the old repair and do it properly. Mention it when you send photos.
Will there be a smell?
A little, depending on the job. Open windows and an extractor fan help, and it soon fades.
