About our bath repair in Fitzhead
A typical bath repair is a few hours’ work, and you can typically bathe again the next day. You will not need a plumber or tiler, because nothing is disconnected. If you’re dealing with damage beneath the taps and impact holes in acrylic, we can typically put it right.
Big or small, it’s backed by a one-year guarantee in Fitzhead and across Somerset.

Do you need bath repair in Fitzhead?
A bath gets knocked about more than you’d think: bottles, shower heads and razors are dropped every day, and fittings press hard against the enamel. Over time, chips and rust spots are almost inevitable.
Common reasons people in Fitzhead contact us include:
- A chipped rim or side
- Cracks in an acrylic bath
- Rust spots around the plughole
- Chips under the taps
What to look for in a quote
- Who will actually do the work
- Whether the price covers travel
- What happens if the damage is worse than the photos show
- How the colour is matched
Looking after it afterwards
To keep it looking its best for years:
- Rinse the bath after use, especially in hard water areas
- Get a dripping tap fixed promptly
- Do not leave razors or cans standing in the bath
- Protect the bath with a towel when doing jobs nearby
A repaired bath needs no special treatment. Skip bleach and gritty creams and give it a rinse after each bath.
A small chip is a quick job. Left alone, they stain and can rust, so early repair saves time and money.

What else we do in Fitzhead
Why repair rather than replace?
A new bath brings a chain of other jobs: the tiles sitting on the rim tend to break, a new panel is often needed, and a plumber has to disconnect and reconnect everything. Repairing the damage avoids all of that. Our bath repair starts from £95. Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Photos let us give you the exact figure.
What you get with us
- A year’s guarantee on all work
- Fixed prices from your pictures
- One price list for the entire UK
- We will tell you if it’s not worth repairing

What a repair cannot fix
We will not take on work that will not last, so here’s what a repair can’t put right:
- Flexing caused by a failed cradle or loose feet
- A bath worn all over, where resurfacing makes more sense
- Rust that has eaten right through a steel bath
Not sure? Send pictures and we’ll give you a straight answer.
Materials we repair
- Whirlpool & spa baths
- Cast iron enamel

What affects the price in Fitzhead
Prices start from £95. There’s no charge for travel to Fitzhead. The price comes down to:
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- How many areas need work
- Doing more than one item at once
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
Instead of hourly rates, we fix the price before we start. Damage, material and access decide it, and doing several items at once reduces it.
How to get a fixed price
The better the pictures, the more accurate the price. Here’s what helps:
- What it’s made of, if you know
- Details of any past repairs
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- One sharp close-up of the damage
Most customers in Fitzhead get their price from photos. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we will send back a fixed quote and some dates.
DIY kit or professional repair?
If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, make sure the area is clean and completely dry, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, a professional repair is worth it.
The process
From the moment we arrive, the aim is to do the job without disturbing the rest of your home. We mask off everything nearby, the work takes two to three hours for most chips, depending on what we find, and we finish by cleaning up and talking you through the result.
- We protect the bath and the floor around it.
- The damaged area is cleaned, keyed and degreased, and any rust is treated.
- We fill it, let it set, then sand it flush.
- We match both the colour and the shine.
- We tidy up and tell you when the bath can be used, normally the day after.
How to prepare
- Let us know which floor the room is on
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
How to get a price
Pricing is simple: snap the damage close up and then the entire item, send them to us with your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed price. Quotes are free and you are under no obligation.
Advice
Fitzhead questions
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
Yes, though it’s best to check with your landlord first. Landlords are often glad to have it sorted before the end of a tenancy.
Is a holed acrylic bath repairable?
In most cases. Send us a photo of the hole and one from under the bath if you can.
Can you match an avocado or pink bath?
Yes, we match coloured baths too. We tint the finish to your bath on site.
Can you repair something that’s been repaired before?
Most of the time. Tell us what was done before and we’ll plan for it.
Does someone need to be in?
Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. After that, you can carry on with your day.
Do you work for landlords and businesses?
We do, regularly. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.
Can a cracked acrylic bath be fixed?
In most cases. We reinforce the crack from behind, then fill and refinish the front, so we need access under the bath.
Can pets and children be at home?
Just keep them out of the work area. We’ll tell you when the room can be used again.
Materials and what they mean for the repair
Pressed steel
Steel baths and trays have a thin metal body under the enamel. Exposed steel rusts quickly, so we treat and seal the metal before filling.
Acrylic
Acrylic feels warm and is light, but it relies on good support. Cracks are strengthened from behind before the front is finished.
