Trusted bath repair in Little Somerford

Bath repair at your home in Little Somerford

Bath repair is our most common job. Chips on the rim, rust around the waste and cracks in acrylic are all fixed without removing the bath, normally in one visit. We work on pressed steel enamel, acrylic and roll-top & freestanding, and common reasons people get in touch are scratches you can feel with a fingernail and a chip where the taps sit.

All our work comes with our one-year guarantee, wherever you are in Wiltshire.

How the visit works

We agree an arrival time beforehand. On site, it takes a few hours for most jobs. The room is left tidy.

  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. The damage is filled in layers and shaped to the curve of the bath.
  4. We tint the finish by hand to match the bath.
  5. The repair is polished to the same gloss as the bath and left to cure.

How to prepare

  • Point us to the nearest place to park
  • Have a window or extractor fan available
  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day

  • A bath that flexes because its feet or cradle have failed (that needs fixing first)

If in doubt, send photos and we will say what we think.

10 questions to ask before booking

Common questions in Little Somerford

Can tenants book a repair?

We are happy to deal with the tenant, landlord or agent. Get your landlord’s agreement first.

Do you work in Little Somerford?

Yes. We work across the UK and travel to Little Somerford and the rest of Wiltshire. Send us pictures for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

Will you leave a mess?

Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and we clean up when we have finished.

Are there extra charges for Little Somerford?

Travel is included in the price, with the same prices everywhere we work.

Are you accredited?

We are accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.

Is a bath repair durable?

It should, as long as the bath is firm and the area was prepared well. It carries our one-year guarantee.

It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?

Yes, regularly. Removing the old work can add time, and that is in the quote.

When can I have a bath again?

Normally the next day. We confirm the time before we leave.

Keeping it looking good

To keep it looking its best:

  • Cover the bath during DIY or decorating
  • Check that an acrylic bath doesn’t move when you stand in it
  • Avoid scourers, wire wool and gritty cream cleaners
  • Rinse the bath after use, especially in hard water areas

Treat the repaired area like the rest of the bath: a soft cloth and washing-up liquid is all it needs. Keep scouring pads and gritty cleaners away from it.

Small chips are quick to repair. Left alone, they stain and can rust, so early repair saves time and money.

How we price bath repair

Prices start from £95. Every quote is fixed and free. What we look at:

  • What kind of damage it is
  • How hard the colour is to match
  • The material and finish
  • How much damage there is

Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. Damage, material and access decide it.

How to get a fixed price

Two or three clear pictures are usually enough. Try to include:

  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • One picture of the entire bath

We price from pictures so you do not have to wait in for a survey. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through, and we will come back with a fixed figure.

Can I fix it myself?

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.

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is generally cheaper.

What your bath is made of matters

Composite and resin

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

Pressed steel

Under the enamel of a steel bath is thin metal. Exposed steel rusts quickly, so the metal is treated and sealed before the repair.

Repair or replace in Little Somerford?

For damage in one or two places, a repair is the obvious choice. It’s a fraction of the cost of a new bath and fitting, it takes one visit, and the bathroom stays exactly as it is. Our bath repair starts from £95. What it costs depends on how much damage there is and what kind, the material and how many items we do on one visit. You get a fixed quote from your photos, so there are no surprises on the day.
