Bath repair in Langley, done in place

A damaged bath doesn’t have to mean a new bathroom. We fill the damage, shape it to the curve of the bath and refinish it, with the colour mixed on site so the repair is hard to spot. Typical jobs include scuffs and scratches in the surface and rust spots around the plughole, across whirlpool & spa baths, roll-top & freestanding and acrylic.

Every repair is covered by a one-year guarantee.

Can I fix it myself?

It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is generally cheaper.

The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, and the work is guaranteed.

Langley questions

Is a bath repair permanent?

Done properly, a repair lasts for years, and ours come with a one-year guarantee. Gentle cleaning helps.

Do you come to Langley?

Yes. We work across the UK and come to Langley and the rest of Somerset. Send photos and we’ll quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

Do you cover the entire of Somerset?

The entire UK, including all of Somerset. Send your postcode with your pictures and we will offer you dates.

Will there be a smell?

There can be some smell while we work. It fades as everything cures.

Do you charge for travel?

We do not add a call-out fee. Your fixed quote includes everything.

Can you fix rust around the plughole?

Yes. We remove the rust and loose enamel, fill the area, then colour-match the finish.

How much does bath repair cost in Langley?

Prices start from £95. Every job gets a fixed price based on photos of the damage. Send a close-up and a photo of the whole item and your postcode.

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.

Repair or replace in Langley?

Cast iron baths in particular are worth repairing: getting one out, particularly from an upstairs bathroom, is a big job, and replacing like for like is not cheap. Repairing it leaves it where it is. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. No two jobs are quite the same, so we price each one individually. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all make a difference, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

Why Langley clients choose us

  • Most jobs done in one visit
  • Rooms protected and left tidy

Different materials, different repairs

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, which makes it well worth repairing.

Pressed steel

Steel baths are lighter than cast iron, but have a similar enamel surface. Exposed steel rusts fast, especially around the waste, so early repairs matter.

Landlord and trade work in Langley

Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Langley use us as well as homeowners. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it costs much less than replacing.

If you manage property in Langley, we’ll quote for several properties at once. Just send photos for each address and we will price them together.

How the visit works

Expect a friendly, tidy visit. We confirm the time with you beforehand, cover and mask the work area, and get on with the job, which normally takes a few hours, depending on the damage. If anything looks different from your photos, we will talk to you before going ahead.

  1. First, the area is cleaned and any loose enamel or rust is removed.
  2. We fill the damage and sand it flush with the surrounding surface.
  3. We mix the colour on the day to match your bath’s exact shade.
  4. We apply the finish coats and polish the repair so it blends in.
  5. Once it has cured, typically by the following day, the bath is ready to use.

How to prepare

  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat

How to get a price

To get a price, send a couple of pictures using our quote form or call us. We’ll say right away if a repair is the right fix.

Advice

Do you need bath repair in Langley?

Acrylic baths that crack nearly always have a support problem. Legs that are not adjusted, a missing cradle or a soft floor let the bath move until the acrylic gives way.

Look out for these signs:

  • A chipped rim or side
  • Damage done while the bathroom was being fitted
  • Scuffs and scratches in the surface
  • Chips under the taps

Comparing quotes

  • How to look after the finish
  • What the guarantee covers, and for how long
  • What protection goes down before work starts
  • A fixed price, and whether VAT is included

Our hiring checklist

Honest limits

A few problems are outside what a surface repair can do:

  • Acrylic cracks with no access behind them
  • A whole bath that is dull or worn, where a full re-enamel is the better fix
  • Leaking fittings, which need a plumber

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

Materials we repair

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

How we price bath repair

Repairs from £95. A fixed quote means you know the cost before booking. We look at:

  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • How much damage there is
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out

Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. Damage, material and access decide it, and doing several items at once reduces it.

Send photos for a quote

Photographing the damage takes a minute, and it saves a visit. Please include:

  • Where you are, by postcode
  • Any details about the material
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings

If you are in Langley and want a price, the easiest route is photos: a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode. You’ll get a fixed quote with dates to choose from.
