Bath repair at your home in Cannington

Most of our bath repairs take a few hours, and the bath is back in use the day after. There’s no need to book a plumber or tiler, because nothing is disconnected. Common call-outs are for deep scratches in acrylic and an old repair that has yellowed or come loose, in acrylic, cast iron enamel and pressed steel enamel.

You are covered after we leave: our one-year guarantee applies to every job, and we explain what it covers before booking.

Cannington questions

Can landlords book you?

Yes. We carry out repairs for householders, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses across Somerset.

Will the repair show?

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

How do I book?

Send photos through the quote form or call 0345 017 0787, and we’ll do the rest.

Can you price it without visiting?

In nearly every case. If pictures do not show enough, we’ll ask for another angle.

Can you repair a failed DIY repair?

Yes. We take out the old repair and do it properly. Mention it when you send pictures.

What if the damage is worse than the photos show?

Your quote covers the damage in the photos. Anything extra is discussed before we begin.

What happens next?

We look at the pictures and reply with a fixed price and some dates. If we need another angle, we will ask.

Is it messy?

Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and we clean up when we have finished.

What your bath is made of matters

Composite and resin

Stone resin and composite baths are heavy and solid, and often freestanding. Chips and scratches can be filled and colour-matched, just like other baths.

Acrylic

Acrylic is light and warm to the touch, but it relies on good support. Repairs to cracks are reinforced from the back.

How it works

Here’s how a visit normally runs: we arrive on time, sheet and mask the area around the job, carry out the work and tidy away. Plan for a few hours, depending on the damage from start to finish. Before leaving, we tell you how long to leave it and what to avoid for the first few days.

  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 apply the finish coats and polish the repair so it blends in.
  5. We leave it to cure; you can generally use the bath the following day.

How to prepare

  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
  • Clear the area around the damage

Ask for a price

Call 0345 017 0787 or use the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the entire bath, we can price the job the same day in most cases.

Advice

Honest limits

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

  • Leaking fittings, which need a plumber
  • Cracks in parts of an acrylic bath we cannot get to from below
  • A whole bath that is dull or worn, where a full re-enamel is the better fix

Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly before you book.

What we work on

  • Cast iron enamel
  • Roll-top & freestanding
  • Acrylic
  • Pressed steel enamel
  • Whirlpool & spa baths

DIY repairs versus a professional job

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is usually the cheaper route.

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, ensure the area is clean and completely dry, and give it the full curing time. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.

Repair or replace in Cannington?

Think about the hidden costs of a new bath: taking out the old one, plumbing, tiling, a panel and redecorating. With a repair, it’s one visit and one price. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

Signs you need bath repair in Cannington

Rust usually starts where water sits, around the waste, under the taps or in an old chip. Water on bare metal causes rust that creeps under the surrounding enamel.

Most people get in touch when they notice something like this:

  • Holes from dropped items
  • Damage done while the bathroom was being fitted
  • Cracks in an acrylic bath
  • A failed DIY repair that is discoloured or lifting

What to look for in a quote

  • A fixed price, and whether VAT is included
  • Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price
  • Who turns up on the day
  • How long the guarantee is and what it covers

How to compare quotes

What bath repair costs

Prices start from £95. Every quote is fixed and free. What we take into account:

  • The material and finish
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • Unusual colours or finishes

A repair is priced on what needs doing, not where you live. The full price is agreed before you book, with no extras added later.

Quotes from your photos

Phone photos are fine. Just ensure we can see:

  • Something in shot to show the size
  • One picture of the entire bath
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • One sharp close-up of the damage

A quote takes minutes to ask for: photograph the damage, then the whole bath, add your postcode and send them to us. What comes back is a fixed quote, not a guess.
