Bath repair at your home in Somerset

A repair fixes just the damaged area and blends it into the rest of the bath, which is far cheaper than replacing a fitted bath and the tiles around it. Most baths can be used again the day after. We regularly repair acrylic, cast iron enamel and pressed steel enamel, and common reasons people get in touch are an old repair that has yellowed or come loose and hairline or through cracks in acrylic.

Here’s how a visit typically runs: we arrive on time, sheet and mask the area around the job, carry out the work and clear up. Plan for a few hours. Before we go, we’ll explain how long to leave it and what to avoid for the first few days.

We start by looking at the damage and confirming the plan with you.
Loose enamel, rust and dirt are removed so the repair can bond.
The damage is filled in layers and shaped to the curve of the bath.
The colour is tinted by hand until it matches.
Finally, it’s polished to match the shine and left to cure.

Different materials, different repairs

Acrylic

Acrylic baths are moulded sheet reinforced underneath. There’s no rust, but cracks, holes and scratches happen, and cracks need support from behind to stay fixed.

Pressed steel

Steel baths and trays have a thin metal body under the enamel. Once a chip exposes it, rust follows quickly, so the metal is treated and sealed before the repair.

Common problems we fix in Somerset

The usual cause is something heavy dropped into the bath, and building work is a common culprit. Acrylic baths crack for a different reason: the bath is not properly supported, so it flexes under weight.

Look out for any of the following:

A cracked acrylic bath
Rust spots around the plughole
A hole punched through by something heavy
Chips under the taps

Looking after it afterwards

Looking after the surface is easy, and it makes a real difference:

Cover the bath during DIY or decorating
Get any new chip repaired before it rusts
Don’t scrub with anything abrasive
Keep metal cans and razors off the surface

Leave the repair to cure for as long as we say before running a bath. After that, gentle cleaning keeps it looking good.

If an acrylic bath has a crack, stop showering in it until it’s repaired. Each time it flexes, the crack grows, and water can get through to the floor below.

What a repair can’t fix

A few problems are outside what a surface repair can do:

Cracks in acrylic we cannot reach from underneath
Metal that has corroded all the way through
A whole bath that is dull or worn, where a full re-enamel is the better fix

For landlords and businesses

We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which is easier on the people living there.

For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover. Several plots can be done in one visit.

Somerset: your questions answered

Can you repair a chip on a coloured bath?

Yes, we match coloured baths too. We tint the finish to your bath on site.

Do I have to be there?

Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time we agree with you.

Can I get a quote without a visit?

Yes, almost always. Clear photos let us give you a fixed price without visiting.

What do you need from me?

A close-up, a wider photo and your postcode. Then we’ll agree a date.

Can you do more than one item on the same visit?

Of course, and it generally saves money. Send pictures of everything together and you’ll get one combined price.

Is there any odour?

Expect a mild smell while we are working.

Is the work guaranteed?

Yes: twelve months. If there’s a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.
