Damaged bath in Galhampton? We repair it in place, match it on site and back it with a one-year guarantee.
- Repairs from £95
- Hairline or through cracks in acrylic
- Chips under the taps
Aftercare tips
So the finish stays in good condition:
- Check that an acrylic bath doesn’t move when you stand in it
- Have new chips seen to early
- Give the bath a quick rinse after use
- Stick to mild cleaners and a soft cloth
Leave the repair to cure for as long as we say before running a bath. From then on, mild cleaning is all it needs.
Avoid standing in a cracked acrylic bath until it’s fixed. Every use opens the crack a little more, and water can get through to the floor below.

Bath repair is our most common job. Chips on the rim, rust around the waste and cracks in acrylic are all repaired in place, normally in one visit. If you are dealing with scratches you can feel with a fingernail and chips along the edge of the bath, we can typically put it right, whatever the material.
All of our repairs are guaranteed for twelve months. We return to put right any problem with the work.

What else we do in Galhampton
Repair or replace: which is better?
For damage in one or two places, a repair is the obvious choice. It costs far less than a new bath plus fitting, it’s done in one visit, and nothing else in the room changes. Our bath repair starts from £95. There are no surprise extras on the day. What we quote from your pictures is what you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.
Why us?
- A fixed quote before booking
- Most jobs done in one visit
- Same prices wherever you are
- CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited

Repairs by material
Pressed steel
Steel baths and trays have a thin metal body under the enamel. Exposed steel rusts quickly, so the metal is treated and sealed before the repair.
Cast iron
Cast iron is heavy and rigid, with a fused enamel surface. Chips can rust if left, but the bath itself lasts for generations, so it’s always worth repairing.
Your questions about bath repair in Galhampton
Do you work for landlords and businesses?
Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as householders.
Do you hold any accreditations?
We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.
How do I book?
Some photos, your postcode and how to reach you. On the day, we only need access to the room.
Can a cracked acrylic bath be fixed?
Most of the time. The back of the crack is strengthened before the front is filled and refinished, so access behind the panel is important.
Is there any odour?
Expect a mild smell while we are working that clears as it cures.
Can you repair something that is been repaired before?
Generally, yes. Tell us what was done before.
When can you do it?
It depends on the time of year and where you are. We will offer you dates when we send your quote.
Is repairing better than replacing?
Generally, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. We’ll be honest if it’s not worth it.
Work for landlords and builders
Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover. We can visit several plots in one trip to keep costs down.
Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which matters when someone is living in the home.

When to call us in Galhampton
Nearly all the chips we see start with something being dropped: bottles, shower heads, tiles and tools. On enamelled baths, any chip down to the metal will start to rust.
Send us a photo if you notice any of these:
- Rust by the waste and overflow
- Chips under the taps
- A cracked acrylic bath
- A chipped rim or side
What to look for in a quote
- What aftercare is recommended
- If travel is included in the price
- How changes to the job are handled
- A fixed price, and whether VAT is included
When a repair isn’t the answer
Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair will not do:
- 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
If in doubt, send pictures and we will say what we think before booking.

- Whirlpool & spa baths

What happens on the day
When we visit, we arrive at the time we’ve agreed, cover the area with dust sheets and masking, and set to work. The job typically takes a few hours, depending on the damage. We tidy up before we leave and let you know when you can use it again.
- First, the area is cleaned and any loose enamel or rust is removed.
- We fill the damage and sand it flush with the surrounding surface.
- 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.
How to prepare
- Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
- Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
