Bath repair in Lydiard Millicent without replacing anything
Most of our bath repairs take a few hours, and you can generally bathe again the next day. There is no need to book a plumber or tiler, because the bath does not move. We regularly repair acrylic, whirlpool & spa baths and pressed steel enamel, and common reasons people contact us are a chip where the taps sit and a failed DIY repair that’s discoloured or lifting.
A one-year guarantee comes with the work, just as it does everywhere we cover.

Landlord and trade work in Lydiard Millicent
For anyone letting property in or around Lydiard Millicent, we will quote for several properties at once. Send photos for each one and we will come back with a combined price.
Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, putting right damage done during fitting. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.
The process
Once we are through the door, the aim is to do the job without disturbing the rest of your home. Surfaces nearby are masked off, the work takes a few hours, depending on the damage, and we finish with a tidy-up and a look at the finished work together.
- We start by cleaning the damage and taking out loose enamel and rust.
- The chip or crack is filled, then sanded level with the bath.
- We mix the colour on the day to match your bath’s exact shade.
- Finish coats go on, then the repair is polished to blend in.
- The repair is left to cure, and most baths can be used the following day.
How to prepare
- Make sure the area is dry
- Point us to the nearest place to park
- Open a window if you can

DIY repairs versus a professional job
A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is usually cheaper.
Why repair rather than replace?
A new bath costs more than the bath itself: taking out the old one, plumbing, tiling, a panel and redecorating. With a repair, it’s one visit and one price. Our bath repair starts from £95. Rather than charging by the hour, we price the entire job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and combining items on one visit brings it down.
What you get with us
- CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited
- No extra charge for your area
- Fixed prices from your photos
- Colour mixed on the day to match

Honest limits
We will not take on work that will not last, so these are the limits:
- Leaking fittings, which need a plumber
- A bath that flexes because its feet or cradle have failed (that needs fixing first)
- Metal that has corroded all the way through
If in doubt, send photos and we’ll say what we think.
Materials we work on in Lydiard Millicent
- Acrylic
- Roll-top & freestanding
- Pressed steel enamel
- Cast iron enamel
- Whirlpool & spa baths
Looking after it afterwards
Looking after the surface is easy:
- Check that an acrylic bath does not move when you stand in it
- Avoid scourers, wire wool and gritty cream cleaners
- Rinse it down after each bath
- Store metal items away from the bath
Keep metal objects like razors and cans off the surface, because they can mark the enamel. And fix dripping taps promptly.
Do not leave a chip on a steel or cast iron bath. Once water reaches the metal, rust begins, and a rust spot is a bigger repair than a clean chip.
