The process
On the day, the technician arrives at the agreed time, protects the room with dust sheets and masking and gets started. Expect it to take a morning or an afternoon. We clean up when we’re done and let you know when you can use it again.
- We start by cleaning the damage and taking out loose enamel and rust.
- Next we fill the damage and sand it smooth and level.
- The colour is mixed on the spot to match your bath.
- Finish coats go on, then the repair is polished to blend in.
- The repair is left to cure, and most baths can be used the next day.
Getting ready for the visit
- Let us know which floor the room is on
- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
- Let the surface dry out before the visit

Advice
What we’re called out for in Cricket Malherbie
Rust tends to begin where water collects, around the waste, under the taps or in an old chip. Water on bare metal causes rust that creeps under the surrounding enamel.
Keep an eye out for these signs:
- Holes from dropped items
- Snagging damage from a refit
- Cracks in an acrylic bath
- Scuffs and scratches in the surface
What your quote should include
- What happens if they find more damage
- Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?
- Who will actually do the work
- What preparation is included
When a repair isn’t the answer
Before you book, it’s worth knowing the limits too:
- Cracks in acrylic we can’t reach from underneath
- A bath that flexes because its feet or cradle have failed (that needs fixing first)
- A bath worn all over, where resurfacing makes more sense
Send us pictures and we will tell you honestly.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Cricket Malherbie
We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams in Somerset and across the UK. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which matters when someone is living in the home.
Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets can’t afford rooms out of action for long, so we keep visits short and tidy. We can work around your bookings.
Keeping it looking good
To keep it looking its best for years:
- Don’t leave razors or cans standing in the bath
- Fix dripping taps early to stop staining and limescale
- Keep abrasive pads and gritty cleaners away from the bath
- Give the bath a quick rinse after use
Clean with mild, non-abrasive cleaners and avoid dropping heavy items on the repaired area. Deal with new chips early, before rust can start.
Avoid standing in a cracked acrylic bath until it’s fixed. Each time it flexes, the crack grows, and it can start to leak underneath.

Questions from Cricket Malherbie
When can I have a bath again?
Normally by the following day, though it depends on what we’ve done.
Is a bath repair durable?
Yes, if it’s prepared properly and the bath is sound. It’s covered by our one-year guarantee.
Can you match an avocado or pink bath?
Yes. We mix the colour on the day to match, including pastel and older colours.
Is repairing better than replacing?
In most cases, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. If it is not worth repairing, we will tell you.
Will the price change on the day?
If we find something the pictures didn’t show, we explain it first. You decide whether to go ahead.
Can a cracked acrylic bath be fixed?
Most of the time. We reinforce the crack from behind, then fill and refinish the front, so we need access under the bath.
What does bath repair cost?
Repairs from £95. Because every job differs, we price from photos. You’ll get a fixed figure before booking.
What areas do you cover?
We cover the entire UK, including Cricket Malherbie and the rest of Somerset. Send your postcode with your photos and we will confirm dates.
Repairing versus replacing in Cricket Malherbie
If the rest of the bath is in good condition, a repair is almost always the better choice. It costs less, takes less time and causes far less upheaval, and you keep the bath you chose. Where the whole surface is tired, we may suggest re-enamelling instead. Prices start from £95. 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.
What you get with us
- Every repair guaranteed for a year
- One visit for most repairs
- Nothing taken out or refitted
- Same prices wherever you are

Can I fix it myself?
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.
For a hairline mark somewhere you will 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.
