The process

You do not need to empty the room beforehand. Everything we use comes in the van with us, put protection down and start once you are happy with the plan. It generally takes a few hours, and you can get on with other things while we’re there.

  1. We protect the bath and the floor around it.
  2. We clean, key and degrease the damage.
  3. Filler goes in and is sanded flush once it has set.
  4. Colour and gloss are matched to the surrounding surface.
  5. We clear up and give you the curing time, normally until the following day.

How to prepare

  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat

Ask for a price

If you are in Bridgwater and want a price, the easiest route is photos: one close up, one from further back, plus your postcode. You’ll get a fixed quote with dates to choose from.

Bath repair in Bridgwater, done in place

We repair just the damaged spot and colour-match it to the bath, which is far cheaper than replacing a fitted bath. Most baths can be used again the next day. We regularly repair acrylic, whirlpool & spa baths and cast iron enamel, and the jobs we see most are cracks in an acrylic bath and holes from dropped items.

We guarantee the work for a year. If there’s a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

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.

If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely and work on a clean, dry surface, and give it the full curing time. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.

What affects the price in Bridgwater

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

  • The colour and finish to match
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • The type of damage
  • What the surface is made of

The price depends on how much damage there is and what kind, the material and how many items we do on one visit. We give a fixed price from your photos, so there are no surprises on the day.

Send pictures for a quote

We price nearly every job from photos. This is what we need:

  • The material, if you know it
  • Where you are, by postcode
  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • One picture of the entire bath

Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us photos through the quote form. With one close-up and one wider picture, we can price the job.

Common questions in Bridgwater

Do you work for landlords and businesses?

Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as householders in Bridgwater.

Is repairing better than replacing?

Normally, when the rest is in good condition. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. We’ll tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.

Do you come to Bridgwater?

Yes. We work across the UK and come to Bridgwater. Send us pictures for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

How do I get a price for bath repair in Bridgwater?

Repairs from £95. The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from pictures. You know the full cost before anything is booked.

Is there a guarantee?

All our work carries a one-year guarantee. We’ll explain what it covers when we quote.

Are you a vetted contractor?

We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.

Do the materials smell?

Some materials have a smell while they’re applied, so we ventilate the room. It clears as the materials cure.

How quickly can you book me in?

It depends on the time of year and where you are. Send pictures with your postcode and we will reply with the earliest dates.

Repair or replace: which is better?

A new bath brings a chain of other jobs: tiles along the rim normally crack when it comes out, a new panel is often needed, and a plumber has to disconnect and reconnect everything. Repairing the damage avoids all of that. Prices start from £95. A repair normally costs much less than people expect, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

What you get with us

  • We leave the room as we found it
  • Honest advice, even when it means no job
  • Accredited with CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor
  • Same prices wherever you are

Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Bridgwater use us as well as householders. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it costs much less than replacing.

What your bath is made of matters

Cast iron

A cast iron bath is heavy enough that most people never want to move it. Only the enamel surface wears or chips, and that is the part we put right.

Acrylic

Acrylic is light and warm to the touch, but it needs firm support underneath. Repairs to cracks are reinforced from the back.

When to call us in Bridgwater

Rust tends to begin where water collects, by the plughole, beneath dripping taps or in an unrepaired chip. Once water reaches the steel or iron, rust spreads under the enamel.

Most people contact us when they notice one of these:

  • Scratches you can feel with a fingernail
  • Rusty patches near the plughole
  • An old repair that has yellowed or come loose
  • Cracks in an acrylic bath

What your quote should include

  • Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT
  • What protection goes down before work starts
  • How the colour is matched
  • Whether there are any call-out or travel charges

Aftercare tips

Simple care helps the repair last. Our advice:

  • Check that an acrylic bath doesn’t move when you stand in it
  • Avoid scourers, wire wool and gritty cream cleaners
  • Rinse it down after each bath
  • A dripping tap stains enamel, so fix it early

Don’t leave razors, cans or hair grips in the bath, because they can mark the enamel. And fix dripping taps promptly.

Rust spreads under enamel faster than most people expect. Left for months, a small chip can grow into a large rust patch, so it pays to deal with it early.
