Bath repair at your home in BS4
A damaged bath doesn’t have to mean a new bathroom. Our repair technicians fill, shape and refinish the damage, mixing the colour on the day. We regularly repair cast iron enamel, pressed steel enamel and whirlpool & spa baths, and people most frequently call us about hairline or through cracks in acrylic and a kit repair that didn’t last.
On the day itself, there’s little for you to do. Let us in and show us the room, and we’ll get on with it. The job generally runs to a few hours.
- First, we check the damage against your pictures and agree the plan.
- Any rust and loose material comes out, and the area is degreased.
- We build up the filler in layers, shaping it to the bath.
- The colour is tinted by hand until it matches.
- Finally, it’s polished to match the shine and left to cure.
Pricing in BS4
Prices start from £95. We do not add extras on the day. What we quote from your pictures is what you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.
What you get with us
- Generally one visit, start to finish
- No extra charge for your area
- Rooms protected and left tidy
- Colour-matched on site
Ask for a price
Getting a price is easy: snap the damage close up and then the entire item, send them to us with your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price. There’s no charge for the quote and you’re under no obligation.

Repair or replace?
Replacing a fitted bath normally involves a plumber, removing the old bath, making good the tiles and panel and disposing of the old one. Repairing it deals only with the damage in one visit.
Questions to ask before booking
- Whether they match the colour on site
- How soon you can use it again
- How long the guarantee is and what it covers
- What happens if they find more damage
When we would advise against a repair
Before you book, it’s worth knowing the limits too:
- Water coming from the waste or taps rather than the bath
- Rust that has eaten right through a steel bath
- A bath that moves underfoot, until its support is fixed
DIY repairs versus a professional job
For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, it’s worth having it done properly.
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: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.
Work for landlords and builders
Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.
Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover. Several plots can be done in one visit.
Materials and what they mean for the repair
Pressed steel
Pressed steel is thinner and lighter, with an enamel finish like cast iron. Chips rust quickly on steel, especially around the waste, so repair chips early.
Acrylic
Acrylic baths are moulded sheet reinforced underneath. They do not rust, but they can crack, scratch or be holed, and a crack only stays repaired if it’s supported underneath.
Questions from BS4
What do you need from me?
Just pictures, your postcode and a contact number. On the day, access to the room.
Is a cracked acrylic bath repairable?
Frequently, yes, as long as we can get to the back of the crack to support it. Take off the bath panel and check, or send us a picture.
Do the materials smell?
Expect a mild smell while we are working.
When can I have a bath again?
Typically the next day. We’ll tell you the exact curing time when we finish.
Do I have to be there?
Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time that suits you.
Will the repair show?
The goal is a repair that blends in. How well it disappears depends on the condition of the rest of the bath.
Is there a call-out fee?
Travel is included in the price, with the same prices everywhere we work.
