- Damage done while the bathroom was being fitted

DIY kit or professional repair?
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair will not last.
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 typically cheaper.
Bath repair in Monksilver without replacing anything
We see every kind of bath damage: dropped-bottle chips, plughole rust, acrylic cracks and impact holes. Each is repaired in place with a one-year guarantee. Whether it’s hairline or through cracks in acrylic and deep scratches in acrylic, we can help.
We guarantee the work for a year. If there’s a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it.

Common questions in Monksilver
What happens next?
You get a fixed quote and available dates. If we need another angle, we’ll ask.
Is repairing better than replacing?
Normally, when the rest is in good condition. A repair avoids removal and making good. If replacing would be better, we’ll say so.
Is it messy?
Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and tidy up before we leave.
Can pets and children be at home?
We ask you to keep children and pets out of the room while we work and until it has cured. Everywhere else in the home is fine.
Is a cracked acrylic bath repairable?
Usually, yes, if we can reach the underside to reinforce it. Check under the bath panel, or send us a picture.
Can you do more than one item on the same visit?
Of course, and it usually saves money. Send pictures of everything together and we will quote them together.
Do you hold any accreditations?
We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.
What areas do you cover?
The entire UK, including all of Somerset. Just include your postcode and we’ll confirm dates.
What a repair can’t fix
Before you book, it’s worth knowing the limits:
- A steel bath rusted through
- Wear across the entire surface, which needs re-enamelling
- A bath that moves underfoot, until its support is fixed
Not sure? Send photos and we’ll give you a straight answer before booking.
Materials we repair
- Roll-top & freestanding
- Pressed steel enamel
- Acrylic
- Whirlpool & spa baths
- Cast iron enamel
Different materials, different repairs
Pressed steel
Steel baths are lighter than cast iron, but have a similar enamel surface. Exposed steel rusts fast, especially around the waste, so repair chips early.
Composite and resin
Composite baths are dense and solid, and often freestanding. Chips and scratches are filled and matched, in much the same way.
How we price bath repair
Prices start from £95. Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we take into account:
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- How easy the damage is to reach
- What the surface is made of
- Unusual colours or finishes
What it costs depends on the type and amount of damage, the material and how many items we do on one visit. You get a fixed quote from your pictures, so there are no surprises on the day.
Quotes from your photos
Two or three clear photos are typically enough. Try to include:
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- A wider photo showing the whole bath
- One sharp close-up of the damage
Most customers in Monksilver get their price from pictures. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.
Common problems we fix in Monksilver
Nearly all the chips we see start with something being dropped: a shampoo bottle, a shower head, a tile or a tool during a refit. On steel and cast iron baths, any chip down to the metal will start to rust.
The most common problems we’re called about are:
- Chips under the taps
- A kit repair that didn’t last
- Rust spots around the plughole
- A cracked acrylic bath
What to look for in a quote

- How long it needs to cure
- Whether they match the colour on site
- How to care for the finish
For landlords and businesses
Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Monksilver use us as well as homeowners. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it costs much less than replacing.
We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out photos. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.
How it works
There’s not much you need to do on the day. Show us the job, point us to the room, and we will get on with it. Most visits take a morning or an afternoon, tidy-up included.
- 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.
- We apply the finish coats and polish the repair so it blends in.
- The repair is left to cure, and most baths can be used the following day.
How to prepare
- Let us know about parking or access
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
- Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings

Related advice
Looking after it afterwards
To keep it looking its best:
- Rinse it down after each bath
- Keep abrasive pads and gritty cleaners away from the bath
- Use a soft cloth and washing-up liquid for everyday cleaning
- A dripping tap stains enamel, so fix it early
Clean with mild, non-abrasive cleaners and avoid dropping heavy items on the repaired area. Get any new chip seen to quickly, before rust can start.
Rust under enamel spreads surprisingly quickly. A chip the size of a fingernail can become a much larger patch if it’s left for months, so it pays to deal with it early.
