Bath repair in Kilmersdon

About our bath repair in Kilmersdon

Most of our bath repairs take a few hours, and the bath is back in use the day after. There’s no need to book a plumber or tiler, because nothing is disconnected. Whether it’s damage done while the bathroom was being fitted and a hole punched through by something heavy, we can help, on roll-top & freestanding, cast iron enamel and whirlpool & spa baths alike.

Every job is backed for twelve months. We return to put right any problem with the work.

What we are called out for in Kilmersdon

Dropped items cause the majority of chips, and building work is a common culprit. Acrylic baths crack for a different reason: the bath isn’t properly supported, so it flexes under weight.

If you can see any of these, send us a picture:

  • Rust by the waste and overflow
  • Scratches you can feel with a fingernail
  • Chips under the taps
  • A cracked acrylic bath

Questions to ask before booking

  • Whether they match the colour on site
  • What the guarantee covers, and for how long
  • How your room will be protected
  • A fixed price, and whether VAT is included

FAQs for Kilmersdon

Will it make a mess?

We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and tidy up before we leave.

What happens after I send photos?

We review the pictures and send a fixed quote and the next dates we have.

When can I have a bath again?

Usually the day after. We will tell you the exact curing time when we finish.

Can I add another job to the visit?

Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Send pictures of everything you’d like done.

Can landlords book you?

Yes. We carry out repairs for householders, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses across Somerset.

Can you repair a crack in an acrylic bath?

In most cases. The back of the crack is strengthened before the front is filled and refinished, so we need access under the bath.

Can I get a quote without a visit?

Yes, almost always. Clear pictures let us give you a fixed quote without visiting.

Is there any odour?

There can be some smell while we work, so we ventilate the room. It fades as everything cures.

Should you replace it?

If the rest of the bath is in good condition, a repair is almost always the better choice. It costs less, takes less time and causes far less upheaval, and you keep the bath you chose. If the whole surface is worn, re-enamelling may make more sense, and we will tell you. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Rather than charging by the hour, we price the whole job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access.

What you get with us

  • Work done at your home or business
  • Rooms protected and left tidy
  • CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited
  • One visit for most repairs

See our prices page or resurfacing vs replacement cost guide.

What a repair can’t fix

It helps to know what we cannot do:

  • A steel bath rusted through
  • Water coming from the waste or taps rather than the bath
  • A bath that moves underfoot, until its support is fixed

If in doubt, send photos and we’ll say what we think before you book.

Materials we repair

  • Pressed steel enamel
  • Cast iron enamel
  • Whirlpool & spa baths
  • Roll-top & freestanding
  • Acrylic

What happens on the day

On the day, the technician arrives at the agreed time, protects the room with dust sheets and masking and gets started. Expect it to take a few hours, depending on the damage. We tidy up before we leave and tell you when it’s ready to use.

  1. We start by looking at the damage and confirming the plan with you.
  2. Any rust and loose material comes out, and the area is degreased.
  3. We build up the filler in layers, shaping it to the bath.
  4. The colour is tinted by hand until it matches.
  5. The repair is polished to the same gloss as the bath and left to cure.

Before we arrive

  • Ensure the room can be ventilated
  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
  • Let us know which floor the room is on

For landlords and businesses

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.

We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, putting right damage done during fitting. We’re CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.

Prices and what affects them

Prices start from £95. There is no area surcharge for Kilmersdon. The price reflects:

  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • How hard the colour is to match
  • How many areas need work
  • The material and finish

A repair is priced on what needs doing, not your postcode. You will see the full price before booking, with nothing added on the day.

How to get a fixed price

Good pictures mean an accurate price. Here’s what we find most useful:

  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • Any details about the material
  • Something in shot to show the size
  • A wider photo showing the whole bath

If you are in Kilmersdon and want a price, photos are the quickest way: a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode. You will get a fixed quote with dates to choose from.

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Cast iron

A cast iron bath is heavy enough that most people never want to move it. Only the enamel surface wears or chips, and that’s what we repair.

Composite and resin

Stone resin and composite baths are heavy and solid. Chips and scratches are filled and matched, in much the same way.

How to look after the repair

It’s all simple stuff:

  • Get a dripping tap fixed promptly
  • Have new chips seen to early
  • Put a towel in the bath if you are working above it
  • Store metal items away from the bath

Treat the repaired area like the rest of the bath: warm water, washing-up liquid and a soft cloth. Avoid scourers and gritty cream cleaners.

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.
