How bath repair works in BS7

Whether your bath is steel, cast iron or acrylic, we can repair it. The method changes with the material: rust is treated on metal baths, while cracks in acrylic are reinforced from underneath. We work on pressed steel enamel, acrylic and cast iron enamel, and people most often call us about scuffs and scratches in the surface and damage beneath the taps.

We work cleanly and quietly, so you can stay at home while we’re there. Protection goes down first, then the work takes a morning or an afternoon. At the end we talk you through the curing time and the aftercare.

  1. First, the area is cleaned and any loose enamel or rust is removed.
  2. We fill the damage and sand it flush with the surrounding surface.
  3. The colour is mixed on the spot to match your bath.
  4. We build up the finish and polish it into the surrounding enamel.
  5. We leave it to cure; you can normally use the bath the following day.

  • Technicians who travel to you, UK-wide
  • Fixed prices from your pictures

Getting a price

You do not need a survey visit. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we’ll come back to you with a fixed figure.

Local landmarks in Horfield

We visit homes around The Red Maids' School, Stoke Park and Inn on the Green. Nearby too are Filton Avenue Primary School (within half a mile north-east), Orchard School Bristol (0.6 miles north) and Church of the Holy Trinity with St Edmund (within half a mile south-west). Horfield’s nearest station is Ashley Down station, roughly 0.8 miles south. Further afield, we also cover the area around Cabot Circus (2.2 miles south) and Barton Regis Rural District (1.6 miles south-east). Open spaces near Horfield include Tarn Lake and Purdown.

What affects the price in BS7

Repairs from £95. There is no area surcharge for BS7. What changes the price is:

  • How many items we do on one visit
  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • The material
  • The colour and finish to match

Every job is a little different, so each one is priced on its own. The size and type of damage, the material and access all make a difference, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

How to get a fixed price

Phone photos are fine, there’s no need for anything special. Make sure they show:

  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • Where you are, by postcode
  • A picture taken from further back
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale

Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: take one close-up and one wider shot of the bath, include your postcode and send them over. What comes back is a fixed quote, not a guess.

Work for landlords and builders

We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, putting right damage done during fitting so nothing needs replacing. We are CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.

We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out photos. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.

What we are called out for in BS7

A bath gets knocked about more than you’d think: bottles, shower heads and razors are dropped every day, and fittings press hard against the enamel. Over time, chips and rust spots are almost inevitable.

Look out for any of the following:

  • Damage done while the bathroom was being fitted
  • Holes from dropped items
  • A chip where the taps sit
  • A cracked acrylic bath

How to look after the repair

Aftercare is simple, and it makes a real difference:

  • Keep abrasive pads and gritty cleaners away from the bath
  • Keep metal cans and razors off the surface
  • Have new chips seen to early
  • Put a towel in the bath if you are working above it

Care for the repair the same way as the bath: warm water, washing-up liquid and a soft cloth. Keep scouring pads and gritty cleaners away from it.

Stop using the bath if a crack lets water through. Leaks under a bath can damage floors and ceilings.

Repair or replace?

A new bath brings a chain of other jobs: tiles along the rim typically crack when it comes out, the panel may not fit the new one, and a plumber has to disconnect and reconnect everything. A repair skips all of it.

Is a bath repair permanent?

Done properly, a repair lasts for years, and ours come with a one-year guarantee. Gentle cleaning helps.

What do you need from me?

A close-up, a wider photo and your postcode. After that, we just agree a date.

What about rust by the waste?

Yes, it’s one of the most common repairs we do. We take it back to sound metal, seal it, fill it and match the colour.

Is it messy?

We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and tidy up before we leave.
