Landlords, agents and businesses in North Petherton
Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, fixing chips and scratches before handover. We are CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.
Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover, saving last-minute replacements. Several plots can be done in one visit to keep costs down.
Should you replace it?
Cast iron baths especially are worth keeping: they’re very heavy to remove, especially upstairs, and replacing like for like isn’t cheap. A repair keeps it in place. Our bath repair starts from £95. No two jobs are quite the same, so we price each one individually. The size and type of damage, the material and access all make a difference, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.
Why us?
- Rooms protected and left tidy
- A fixed quote before you book
- Nothing taken out or refitted
- CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited

What a repair can’t fix
Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:
- Rust that has eaten right through a steel bath
- A whole bath that’s dull or worn, where a full re-enamel is the better fix
- A bath that flexes because its feet or cradle have failed (that needs fixing first)
Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly.
What we work on
- Acrylic
- Cast iron enamel
- Pressed steel enamel
- Whirlpool & spa baths
- Roll-top & freestanding
Looking after it afterwards
So the finish stays in good condition for years:
- Cover the bath during DIY or decorating
- Don’t leave a fresh chip for long
- Avoid scourers, wire wool and gritty cream cleaners
- Rinse the bath after use, especially in hard water areas
Keep metal objects like razors and cans off the surface, because they can mark the enamel. A dripping tap should be fixed early, too.
Stop using the bath if a crack lets water through until it’s repaired. Water under the bath can damage the floor and the ceiling below.
North Petherton: your questions answered
Can you repair a chip on a coloured bath?
Yes, we match coloured baths too. The colour is tinted by hand on the day.
Is a cracked acrylic bath repairable?
Most of the time. We reinforce the crack from behind, then fill and refinish the front, so access behind the panel is important.
Is it messy?
No. The work area is masked and covered, and we take our waste away with us.
Is my repair covered?
All our work carries our one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.
What do you need from me?
A close-up, a wider photo and your postcode. Then we will agree a date.
Do I need to be at home?
Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time that suits you.
What happens after I send pictures?
You will get a fixed quote back, generally with dates to choose from. You’re under no obligation.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
In most cases, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. If it is not worth repairing, we’ll tell you.
How it works
We agree an arrival time beforehand, so you are not left guessing. Once we’re there, the work takes a morning or an afternoon for most jobs. The room is left tidy.
- We clean the area and remove any loose enamel or rust.
- Next we fill the damage and sand it smooth and level.
- 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.
- Once it has cured, generally by the next day, the bath is ready to use.
Before we arrive
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
- Let the surface dry out before the visit
- Open a window if you can
How to get a price
Send us pictures of the damage and one of the entire item, and tell us you’re in North Petherton, and we’ll come back with a fixed quote.

Repairs by material
Composite and resin
Composite baths are dense and solid, and frequently freestanding. Chips and scratches are filled and matched, in much the same way.
Cast iron
Cast iron baths are so heavy that repairing in place makes obvious sense. The enamel is the part that wears or chips, and that’s the part we put right.
