Why repair rather than replace?
A new bath brings a chain of other jobs: tiles along the rim normally crack when it comes out, the panel may not fit the new one, and a plumber has to disconnect and reconnect everything. Repairing the damage avoids all of that. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. A repair is priced on what needs doing, not your postcode. The full price is agreed before booking, with no extras added later.
Why book with us
- A fixed quote before booking
- Everything repaired in place
- We will tell you if it’s not worth repairing
- Colour mixed on the day to match

Your questions about bath repair in Ashbrittle
Can you redo an old repair?
Regularly. We strip it out, deal with any rust and repair it again.
How soon can you come?
We’ll give you dates with your quote. Tell us if you need it done quickly.
Can you repair a crack in an acrylic bath?
In most cases. The back of the crack is strengthened before the front is filled and refinished, so access behind the panel is important.
What happens next?
We check the damage, the material and your postcode, then reply with a quote with dates.
Is it messy?
No. The work area is masked and covered, and we leave the room clean.
Do you cover the whole of Somerset?
The entire UK, including all of Somerset. Send your postcode with your photos and we will confirm dates.
How long before I can use the bath?
Most baths can be used the following day. We’ll tell you the exact curing time when we finish.
Is my repair covered?
Every repair comes with a one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.
For landlords and businesses
If you manage property in Ashbrittle, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Send photos for each one and we will price them together.
Letting agents often send us pictures straight from the inventory. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.
How to look after the repair
To keep it looking its best:
- Rinse the bath after use, especially in hard water areas
- Keep abrasive pads and gritty cleaners away from the bath
- Have new chips seen to early
- If an acrylic bath flexes, have its feet adjusted
In the first few days, avoid putting weight or bottles on the repair. After that, normal gentle cleaning is fine without abrasive products.
Until we visit, a strip of waterproof tape over the damage helps, so water can’t get in. Take it off before we arrive.
What your bath is made of matters
Cast iron
A cast iron bath is heavy enough that most people never want to move it. The enamel is the part that wears or chips, and that is the part we put right.
Composite and resin
Composite baths are dense and solid. Chips and scratches can be filled and colour-matched, in much the same way.

What happens on the day
Here’s how a visit typically runs: we arrive on time, sheet and mask the area around the job, do the job and clear up. Allow a morning or an afternoon from start to finish. Before we go, we will explain how long to leave it and what to avoid for the first few days.
- We protect the bath and the floor around it.
- The damaged area is cleaned, keyed and degreased.
- We fill it, let it set, then sand it flush.
- We match both the colour and the shine.
- We tidy up and tell you when the bath can be used, generally the next day.
Getting ready for the visit
- Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
How to get a price
For most jobs, photos are all we need to give you a price. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we will reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.

What a repair cannot fix
To be straight with you, there are a few things a repair will not fix:
- Metal that has corroded all the way through
- Cracks in acrylic we cannot reach from underneath
- A whole bath that’s dull or worn, where a full re-enamel is the better fix
Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly before you book.
Surfaces we repair
- Acrylic
- Whirlpool & spa baths
- Cast iron enamel
- Pressed steel enamel
- Roll-top & freestanding
Common problems we fix in Ashbrittle
The usual cause is something heavy dropped into the bath, and building work is a common culprit. Acrylic baths crack for a different reason: poor support underneath, so the bath flexes when it’s full.
Typical reasons for a call-out include:
- A hole punched through by something heavy
- Rust spots around the plughole
- Deep scratches in acrylic
- Damage beneath the taps
What your quote should include
- What the guarantee covers, and for how long
- Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT
- When it can be used again
- How your room will be protected
DIY kit or professional repair?
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it won’t stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
