How to compare quotes

Bath repair in Lower Aisholt, done in place

We repair just the damaged spot and colour-match it to the bath, which is far cheaper than replacing a fitted bath. You can usually use the bath the day after. We regularly repair roll-top & freestanding, whirlpool & spa baths and pressed steel enamel, and the jobs we see most are a chip where the taps sit and a failed DIY repair that’s discoloured or lifting.

We stand behind the work with a one-year guarantee.

Keeping it looking good

So the finish stays in good condition:

  • Give the bath a quick rinse after use
  • Put a towel in the bath if you’re working above it
  • Don’t scrub with anything abrasive
  • Check that an acrylic bath doesn’t move when you stand in it

Care for the repair the same way as the bath: warm water, washing-up liquid and a soft cloth. Keep scouring pads and gritty cleaners away from it.

A chip on a metal bath shouldn’t be left. Once water reaches the metal, rust begins, turning a quick repair into a bigger one.

Landlord and trade work in Lower Aisholt

Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets need rooms back in use quickly, so we keep visits short and tidy. We can work around your bookings.

We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out photos. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.

How we price bath repair

Repairs from £95. Each job gets its own fixed price. These are the things that affect it:

  • How many areas need work
  • How many items we do on one visit
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • The material and finish

Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is normally a fraction of the price, because there’s 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. It helps if you send:

  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • Details of any past repairs
  • Something in shot to show the size
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus

Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us photos through the quote form. With one close-up and one wider picture, we can give you a fixed price the same day in most cases.

Your questions about bath repair in Lower Aisholt

Can you repair something that is been repaired before?

Most of the time. Let us know what was used before.

Is it OK to have pets in the house?

Keep pets and children away from the work area on the day.

What happens after I send photos?

We review the pictures and send a fixed quote.

Do you come to Lower Aisholt?

Yes. We work across the UK and come to Lower Aisholt. Send photos and we’ll quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

Do I have to be there?

Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time we agree with you.

Can landlords book you?

Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as homeowners across Somerset.

Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?

Typically, when the rest is in good condition. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. If replacing would be better, we’ll say so.

Can tenants book a repair?

Yes, though it’s best to check with your landlord first. Landlords are frequently glad to have it sorted before the end of a tenancy.

What happens on the day

Nothing needs to be moved out of the room beforehand. Everything we use comes in the van with us, put protection down and get going once we have agreed what we are doing. It normally takes a morning or an afternoon, and you’re welcome to carry on with your day while we work.

  1. We clean the area and remove any loose enamel or rust.
  2. Next we fill the damage and sand it smooth and level.
  3. We tint the finish on the day to suit your bath’s shade of white or colour.
  4. We build up the finish and polish it into the surrounding enamel.
  5. The repair is left to cure, and most baths can be used the following day.

Before we arrive

  • Keep a parking space free if you can
  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
  • Let us know which floor the room is on

There’s no need for us to visit first. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we will come back to you with a fixed figure.

DIY kit or professional repair?

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.

A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, a professional repair is worth it.

What a repair cannot fix

Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:

  • Leaks from the waste or overflow fittings (a plumber’s job)
  • A bath that moves underfoot, until its support is fixed
  • Cracks in parts of an acrylic bath we can’t get to from below

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

What we work on

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

Repair or replace: which is better?

A new bath brings a chain of other jobs: the tiles sitting on the rim tend to break, a new panel is frequently needed, and a plumber has to disconnect and reconnect everything. Repairing the damage avoids all of that. Our bath repair starts from £95. Rather than charging by the hour, we price the whole job up front. Damage, material and access decide it, and doing several items at once reduces it.
