Bath repair at your home in Croscombe

A repair fixes just the damaged area and blends it into the rest of the bath, which costs far less than replacing a fitted bath. You can typically use the bath the day after. If you’re dealing with a failed DIY repair that’s discoloured or lifting and deep scratches in acrylic, we can normally put it right, whatever the material.

Whatever the size of the job, you get the same one-year guarantee in Croscombe and across Somerset.

FAQs for Croscombe

Do you repair coloured baths?

Yes. The colour is mixed on site to suit your bath, including older coloured suites.

Can you repair something that’s been repaired before?

Most of the time. Tell us what was done before.

What happens once I’ve sent pictures?

You will get a fixed quote back, plus dates. There is no obligation to book.

I tried a repair kit. Can you fix it?

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

Do I have to be there?

Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. After that, you can carry on with your day.

Do you come to Croscombe?

Yes. We cover the entire UK and come to Croscombe and the rest of Somerset. Send photos and we will quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

Is a bath repair permanent?

A properly prepared repair should last a long time, and it’s guaranteed for a year. Gentle cleaning helps.

Is there any odour?

Expect a mild smell while we’re working.

How to care for the repair

A little care keeps the finish looking good. Our advice:

  • Fix dripping taps early to stop staining and limescale
  • Put a towel in the bath if you are working above it
  • Keep metal cans and razors off the surface
  • Keep abrasive pads and gritty cleaners away from the bath

Clean with mild, non-abrasive cleaners and try not to drop heavy bottles on the repair. Get any new chip seen to quickly, before rust can start.

Tape over a fresh chip or crack until it’s repaired, so water cannot get in. Remove it before the repair.

The process

Once we’re through the door, the aim is to do the job without disturbing the rest of your home. We mask off everything nearby, the job takes a few hours, depending on what we find, and we finish by cleaning up and talking you through the result.

  1. We protect the bath and the floor around it.
  2. The damaged area is cleaned, keyed and degreased, and any rust is treated.
  3. We fill it, let it set, then sand it flush.
  4. Colour and gloss are matched to the surrounding surface.
  5. We clear up and give you the curing time, normally until the day after.

How to prepare

  • Let the surface dry out before the visit
  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area

DIY repairs versus a professional job

A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it will not stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair won’t last.

Repairing versus replacing in Croscombe

Replacing a fitted bath normally involves a plumber, lifting out the old bath, re-tiling and a new panel and disposing of the old one. Repairing it fixes just the damaged area in one visit. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. A repair typically costs much less than people expect, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

Why book with us

  • We come to you, anywhere in the UK
  • No need to remove anything
  • Rooms protected and left tidy
  • Same prices wherever you are

See our prices page and guide to resurfacing and replacement costs.

What your bath is made of matters

Composite and resin

Composite baths are dense and solid. Chips and scratches are filled and matched, in much the same way.

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.

Prices and what affects them

Repairs from £95. A fixed quote means you know the cost before you book. We take into account:

  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • Whether we combine several jobs

We don’t add 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.

Getting a price from photos

Most quotes are done from photos alone. To help us price it:

  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • Natural light rather than flash
  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • Where you are, by postcode

The quickest way to a price is to send a couple of pictures using our quote form or ring us. We’ll tell you honestly if a repair is the right fix.
