How we handle bath repair in Higher Chillington
We repair enamelled steel, cast iron and acrylic baths. The method changes with the material: rust is treated on metal baths, while cracks in acrylic are reinforced from underneath. We regularly repair roll-top & freestanding, acrylic and cast iron enamel, and the jobs we see most are a hole punched through by something heavy and an old repair that has yellowed or come loose.
Peace of mind is built in: our one-year guarantee applies to every job, and we explain what it covers before booking.

Repairs by material
Cast iron
Cast iron baths are so heavy that repairing in place makes obvious sense. The enamel is the part that wears or chips, and that is the part we put right.
Composite and resin
Composite baths are dense and solid. Chips and scratches can be filled and colour-matched, in much the same way.
Higher Chillington: your questions answered
What areas do you cover?
We work UK-wide. Prices don’t change with location.
Is a holed acrylic bath repairable?
Often, if there’s access underneath. We back the hole, fill it and refinish the surface.
What happens next?
We review the pictures and send a fixed quote with dates.
Can you match an avocado or pink bath?
Yes. The colour is mixed on site to suit your bath, including pastel and older colours.
Do you come to Higher Chillington?
Yes. We work across the UK and come to Higher Chillington and the rest of Somerset. Send photos and we will quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
Do I need to be at home?
We need someone to let us in. You do not need to watch us work.
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 photos.
How long before I can use the bath?
Normally by the following day, though it depends on what we’ve done.
Honest limits
Not everything can be repaired, and we will tell you before we start. Repairs won’t solve:
- Water coming from the waste or taps rather than the bath
- A steel bath rusted through
- A whole bath that is dull or worn, where a full re-enamel is the better fix
If in doubt, send pictures and we will say what we think before booking.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Higher Chillington
We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out pictures. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.
For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover. Several plots can be done in one visit to keep costs down.
The process
Here’s how a visit typically runs: we arrive on time, sheet and mask the area around the job, carry out the work and tidy away. Plan for a morning or an afternoon. Before we go, we will explain when it can be used and how to care for it.
- 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.
- We build up the finish and polish it into the surrounding enamel.
- We leave it to cure; you can generally use the bath the day after.
Preparing for the visit
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
- Ensure the room can be ventilated
Ask for a price
Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us photos through the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the whole bath, we can give you a fixed price without visiting.

What bath repair costs
Repairs from £95. We price every job individually, from your pictures. What matters most is:
- How easy the damage is to reach
- How many items we do on one visit
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- How much damage there is
Set against the cost of replacement, repairing typically costs far less, because there is no removal, plumbing or making good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.
How to get a fixed quote
A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. Try to include:
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- A wider photo showing the whole bath
- Any details about the material
Upload a photo of the damage and a wider shot of the entire item, and tell us you’re in Higher Chillington, and we’ll come back with a fixed quote.

DIY kit or professional repair?
A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it won’t stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.
How to care for the repair
Aftercare is simple:
- Rinse it down after each bath
- Don’t leave razors or cans standing in the bath
- Get a dripping tap fixed promptly
- Clean with warm water and a mild detergent
Leave the repair to cure for as long as we say before running a bath. After that, gentle cleaning keeps it looking good.
Don’t leave a chip on a steel or cast iron bath. Water gets to the metal and rust starts, turning a quick repair into a bigger one.
