Our bath repair service in BS8

Repairing baths is what we do most. Chips on the rim, rust around the waste and cracks in acrylic are all repaired in place, generally in a single visit. We work on pressed steel enamel, roll-top & freestanding and acrylic, and common reasons people get in touch are a hole punched through by something heavy and rusty patches near the plughole.

The work is clean and fairly quiet. Protection goes down first, then the job itself takes a few hours, depending on the damage. Before we leave, we explain the curing time and the aftercare.

  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. The colour is tinted by hand until it matches.
  5. The repair is polished to the same gloss as the bath and left to cure.

What you will pay

Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Set against the cost of replacement, repairing normally costs far less, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. The quote lists exactly what you are paying for.

What you get with us

  • Colour-matched on site
  • Usually one visit, start to finish
  • One-year guarantee on every repair

What affects the price in BS8

Repairs from £95. Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we take into account:

  • Access to the area
  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • How hard the colour is to match

A repair typically costs much less than people expect, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Send photos and we will give you the exact figure.

How to get a fixed price

You can take the photos on your phone, there is no need for anything special. Just make sure we can see:

  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • Natural light rather than flash
  • The material, if you know it
  • Where you are, by postcode

Email us a picture of the damage and a wider shot of the whole item, and tell us you are in BS8, and we’ll reply with a fixed price.

Signs you need bath repair

Many chips happen while the bathroom is being fitted. Tools, tiles and fittings get dropped into the bath, often before anyone notices. Snagging repairs like these are a regular job for us.

Most people get in touch after spotting something like this:

  • Holes from dropped items
  • Snagging damage from a refit
  • Scuffs and scratches in the surface
  • A chipped rim or side

DIY kit or professional repair?

For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll 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 usually the cheaper route.

Work for landlords and builders

Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover, so there is no need to replace a damaged item at the last minute. Several plots can be done in one visit to keep costs down.

If you manage property in BS8, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Send photos for each one and we’ll come back with a combined price.

Repairing versus replacing

Think about the hidden costs of a new bath: removal and disposal, plumbing, a new panel, tiling and decorating. A repair is one job, done in one visit.

BS8: your questions answered

Are there extra charges for BS8?

There is no separate call-out charge. Your fixed quote includes everything.

Will you leave a mess?

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

Will the repair show?

The goal is a repair that blends in. The rest of the bath’s condition makes a difference.

Something went through my bath. Can it be fixed?

Generally, yes, if we can reach behind it. We back the hole, fill it and refinish the surface.

Are you accredited?

Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.

Can I add another job to the visit?

Yes. Doing several items on one visit typically costs less than separate visits. Send pictures of everything you’d like done.

What happens if you find more damage?

We stop, show you and agree any change before carrying on. Nothing extra is done without your say-so.
