Can I fix it myself?
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it will not stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
About our bath repair in Church Row
We see every kind of bath damage: dropped-bottle chips, plughole rust, acrylic cracks and impact holes. All of it is repaired where the bath stands with a one-year guarantee. Our technicians work on pressed steel enamel, whirlpool & spa baths and roll-top & freestanding, and common reasons people get in touch are rust spots around the plughole and an old repair that has yellowed or come loose.
All our work is covered by our one-year guarantee.

Repair or replace: which is better?
A repair makes sense whenever the damage is localised. It’s a fraction of the cost of a new bath and fitting, it’s done in one visit, and nothing else in the room changes. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. There are no surprise extras on the day. The price we quote from your pictures is the price you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.

Materials and what they mean for the repair
Acrylic
Acrylic baths are moulded sheet reinforced underneath. There’s no rust, but cracks, holes and scratches happen, and a crack only stays repaired if it’s supported underneath.
Cast iron
Cast iron is heavy and rigid, finished with fired enamel. A chip down to the iron can rust, but the body of the bath lasts a very long time, which makes it well worth repairing.
Signs you need bath repair in Church Row
A cracked acrylic bath typically wasn’t supported properly. Loose legs, no proper cradle or a floor that gives let the bath move until it cracks.
It’s worth getting a quote if you see:
- Scuffs and scratches in the surface
- Hairline or through cracks in acrylic
- Rust by the waste and overflow
- A failed DIY repair that is discoloured or lifting
Questions to ask before booking
- Whether the colour is mixed to match
- The length of the guarantee and what it covers
- When it can be used again
- Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?
When we’d advise against a repair
We’ll always be straight with you, so here’s what a repair cannot fix:
- A whole bath that is dull or worn, where a full re-enamel is the better fix
- A steel bath rusted through
- Water coming from the waste or taps rather than the bath
Not sure? Send pictures and we’ll give you a straight answer before you book.
Materials we repair
- Cast iron enamel
- Whirlpool & spa baths
- Pressed steel enamel
- Roll-top & freestanding
- Acrylic
Keeping it looking good
Good habits make a big difference to how long a repair lasts:
- Put a towel in the bath if you’re working above it
- If an acrylic bath flexes, have its feet adjusted
- Use a soft cloth and washing-up liquid for everyday cleaning
- Rinse the bath after use, especially in hard water areas
Give the repair the full curing time we recommend before running a bath. From then on, mild cleaning is all it needs.
Tape over a fresh chip or crack until it’s repaired, so water cannot get in. Take it off before we arrive.

How it works
It’s a tidy, low-fuss visit. We confirm the time with you beforehand, protect the area, then carry out the work, which generally takes two to three hours for most chips. If anything looks different from your pictures, we will talk to you before going ahead.
- 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.
- We tint the finish by hand to match the bath.
- Finally, it’s polished to match the shine and left to cure.
Preparing for the visit
- Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
- Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
- Keep a parking space free if you can

Church Row questions
Do you repair coloured baths?
Yes. The colour is mixed on site to suit your bath, including older coloured suites.
How invisible is a bath repair?
On a glossy bath, you’ll struggle to find it. On older, dull enamel the repair can look glossier than the area around it.
What areas do you cover?
All of Somerset, and the rest of the UK. There’s no extra charge for travel.
Can I get a quote without a visit?
Yes, almost always. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed price.
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
Yes, though it’s best to check with your landlord first. Many landlords are happy for a repair to be arranged before the end of a tenancy.
Are there extra charges for Church Row?
No. Our quotes include travel, with the same prices everywhere we work.
How long does the repair take to cure?
Normally by the following day, depending on the repair.
How much does bath repair cost in Church Row?
Repairs from £95. Every job gets a fixed quote from your pictures. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo and your postcode.
Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £95. There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price depends on:
- The type of damage
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- The size and number of damaged areas
- How many items we do on one visit
Instead of hourly rates, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and doing several items at once reduces it.
How to get a fixed quote
Before you send photos, these tips help us give you a firm price:
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- The material, if you know it
- Details of any past repairs
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
Getting a price is easy: snap the damage close up and then the entire item, send them over with your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote. There’s no charge for the quote and no obligation.
