Bath repair in Chard without replacing anything
A typical bath repair is a few hours’ work, and you can typically bathe again the following day. You will not need a plumber or tiler, because nothing is disconnected. Typical jobs include scuffs and scratches in the surface and a kit repair that didn’t last, across pressed steel enamel, acrylic and cast iron enamel.
Whatever the size of the job, it’s backed by a one-year guarantee.

Common questions in Chard
Will I be able to see the repair?
We aim for a repair you cannot easily find. How well it disappears depends on the condition of the rest of the bath.
Does someone need to be in?
Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time that suits you.
When can I have a bath again?
Most baths can be used the next day. We confirm the time before we leave.
Is a holed acrylic bath repairable?
Frequently, if there’s access underneath. We back the hole, fill it and refinish the surface.
I rent my home. Can I book you?
We can work for tenants, landlords or agents. Get your landlord’s agreement first.
Can you repair something that’s been repaired before?
Generally, yes. Tell us what was done before.
How do I book?
Some photos, your postcode and how to reach you. On the day, we only need access to the room.
Can you quote from pictures?
Normally, yes. Clear pictures let us give you a fixed price without visiting.

What else we do in Chard
How to care for the repair
So the finish stays in good condition for years:
- Rinse it down after each bath
- Keep metal cans and razors off the surface
- Keep abrasive pads and gritty cleaners away from the bath
- Protect the bath with a towel when doing jobs nearby
Do not leave razors, cans or hair grips in the bath, because they can mark the enamel. And fix dripping taps promptly.
Small chips are quick to repair. Left alone, they stain and can rust, so it’s worth getting them done early.
Landlord and trade work in Chard
We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, putting right damage done during fitting so nothing needs replacing. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.
Letting agents often send us pictures straight from the inventory. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.
Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £95. We give every job a fixed quote from pictures. This is what makes a difference:
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- How much damage there is
- Unusual colours or finishes
Every job is a little different, so each one is priced on its own. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all play a part, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.
Send pictures for a quote
The better the photos, the more accurate the price. Here’s what helps:
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- A photo taken from further back
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- Natural light rather than flash
Getting a price is easy: take a close-up of the damage and a photo from further back, send them to us with your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed price. There’s no charge for the quote and no obligation.
What we are called out for in Chard
Rust normally starts where water sits, by the plughole, beneath dripping taps or in an unrepaired chip. Once water reaches the steel or iron, rust spreads under the enamel.
Signs it’s time to call us include:
- Chips under the taps
- Chips caused by builders
- Cracks in an acrylic bath
- Scratches you can feel with a fingernail
What your quote should include
- Whether the price covers travel
- Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price
- Whether they match the colour on site
- What aftercare is recommended
Honest limits
Before you book, it’s worth knowing the limits too:
- Acrylic cracks with no access behind them
- A bath that flexes because its feet or cradle have failed (that needs fixing first)
- Wear across the entire surface, which needs re-enamelling
Not sure? Send pictures and we’ll give you a straight answer before you book.

Different materials, different repairs
Acrylic
Acrylic is light and warm to the touch, but it relies on good support. Repairs to cracks are reinforced from the back.
Pressed steel
Steel baths are lighter than cast iron, but have a similar enamel surface. Exposed steel rusts fast, especially around the waste, so repair chips early.
How it works
We work cleanly and quietly. We protect the area first, then the work takes a few hours. At the end we talk you through how soon it can be used and how to care for it.
- We start by looking at the damage and confirming the plan with you.
- Any rust and loose material comes out, and the area is degreased.
- We build up the filler in layers, shaping it to the bath.
- We tint the finish by hand to match the bath.
- Finally, it’s polished to match the shine and left to cure.
Getting ready for the visit
- Let the surface dry out before the visit
- Keep a parking space free if you can
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work

Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: photograph the damage, then the whole bath, include your postcode and send them to us. You will get a fixed price, not an estimate.
Advice
Should you replace it?
When the bath is otherwise sound, repairing beats replacing. It costs less, takes less time and causes far less upheaval, and the bathroom stays as it is. If the entire surface is worn, re-enamelling may make more sense, and we will tell you. Prices start from £95. Our prices are the same across the UK, with no extra for Chard. The job itself decides the price: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.
