What affects the price in Ford
Repairs from £95. Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we take into account:
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- How much damage there is
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- Access to the area
A repair normally costs much less than people expect, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Photos let us give you the exact figure.
Send pictures for a quote
You can normally get a fixed price without us visiting. To make it quick:
- Where you are, by postcode
- One picture of the whole bath
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- Details of any past repairs
The quickest way to a price is to send two or three photos using our quote form or ring us. We’ll say straight away if a repair is the right fix.
Should you replace it?
A new bath brings a chain of other jobs: the tiles sitting on the rim tend to break, the panel may not fit the new one, and a plumber has to disconnect and reconnect everything. Repairing the damage avoids all of that. Our bath repair starts from £95. We charge the same wherever you are, with no extra for Ford. The job itself decides the price: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.
Why book with us

- CHAS and Constructionline accredited

Ford: your questions answered
Can you repair something that’s been repaired before?
Generally, yes. Tell us what was done before and we will plan for it.
Which areas do you work in?
We cover the entire UK, including Ford and the rest of Somerset. Just include your postcode and we’ll confirm dates.
Can you redo an old repair?
Yes, we do this frequently. We strip it out, deal with any rust and repair it again.
What happens next?
You’ll get a fixed quote back. There is no obligation to book.
Is there any odour?
Some materials have a smell while they’re applied. It clears as the materials cure.
What if the damage is worse than the pictures show?
Your quote covers the damage in the photos. Anything extra is discussed before we begin.
Are there extra charges for Ford?
We don’t add a call-out fee. The fixed price covers the visit and the work.
Is a holed acrylic bath repairable?
Frequently, if there’s access underneath. We back the hole, fill it and refinish the surface.
DIY repairs versus a professional job
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is usually cheaper.
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
Landlords, agents and businesses in Ford
We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which is easier on the people living there.
Rental properties take more wear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.
The process
Arrival times are agreed in advance, so you are not left guessing. On site, it takes a morning or an afternoon. We leave the room clean and you will know when it can be used.
- First, we check the damage against your photos and agree the plan.
- Any rust and loose material comes out, and the area is degreased.
- We build up the filler in layers, shaping it to the bath.
- The colour is tinted by hand until it matches.
- The repair is polished to the same gloss as the bath and left to cure.
How to prepare
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
- Keep a parking space free if you can
Ask for a price
Send us a photo of the damage and a wider shot of the entire item, with your TA4 postcode, and we’ll come back with a fixed quote.

What your bath is made of matters
Composite and resin
Composite baths are dense and solid, and frequently freestanding. Chips and scratches are filled and matched, just like other baths.
Cast iron
Cast iron is heavy and rigid, with a fused enamel surface. A chip down to the iron can rust, but the bath itself lasts for generations, so it’s always worth repairing.

What a repair can’t fix
A few problems are outside what a surface repair can do:
- Acrylic cracks with no access behind them
- Leaking fittings, which need a plumber
- Metal that has corroded all the way through
If in doubt, send pictures and we will say what we think before booking.
What we work on
- Cast iron enamel
- Roll-top & freestanding
- Acrylic
- Whirlpool & spa baths
- Pressed steel enamel
Keeping it looking good
Simple care helps the repair last. Our advice:
- Have new chips seen to early
- Clean with warm water and a mild detergent
- Fix dripping taps early to stop staining and limescale
- Put a towel in the bath if you are working above it
In the first few days, avoid putting weight or bottles on the repair. After that, clean it as you would the rest of the bath.
A chip on a metal bath shouldn’t be left. Once water reaches the metal, rust begins, and a rust spot is a bigger repair than a clean chip.
