Bath repair near Regil

Bath repair in Regil, done in place

It pays to repair bath damage while it’s small. Exposed metal on enamelled baths soon rusts, and on acrylic, a crack keeps spreading while the bath flexes. A repair stops both. Whether it’s holes from dropped items and a failed DIY repair that’s discoloured or lifting, we can help, whatever the material.

Your repair is guaranteed for a year, as with every job we do.

Your questions about bath repair in Regil

Is my repair covered?

Yes, for a year. If there’s a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.

How invisible is a bath repair?

On a bath in good condition, a colour-matched repair is very hard to spot. On older, dull enamel the repair can look glossier than the area around it.

Which areas do you work in?

We cover the entire UK, including Regil and the rest of Bath and North East Somerset. Just include your postcode and we will offer you dates.

Do you do work for letting agents?

Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as householders across Bath and North East Somerset.

Can you repair a failed DIY repair?

Yes. We remove the old filler and start again. Tell us about it when you send photos.

Is it safe with children and pets around?

Yes, as long as they stay out of the room we are working in. We will let you know when it’s safe to use again.

Is there a call-out fee?

Travel is included in the price, and we charge the same wherever you are.

Do the materials smell?

Expect a mild smell while we are working.

What affects the price in Regil

Repairs from £95. We give every job a fixed quote from photos. These are the things that affect it:

  • The type of damage
  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • How many items we do on one visit

Our prices are the same across the UK, with no extra for Regil. The job itself decides the price: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

Quotes from your photos

You can take the photos on your phone, there’s no need for anything special. Just make sure we can see:

  • Any details about the material
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • A photo taken from further back
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit

Send us a picture of the damage and one of the whole item, and tell us you’re in Regil, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, ensure the area is clean and completely dry, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.

It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and then the old filler has to be removed first.

Repair or replace: which is better?

Replacing a fitted bath usually means a plumber, removing the old bath, making good the tiles and panel and getting rid of the old bath. Repairing it deals only with the damage in one visit. Our bath repair starts from £95. Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. Damage, material and access decide it.

  • Everything repaired in place
  • Generally one visit, start to finish
  • Free fixed quotes from pictures

Landlord and trade work in Regil

Letting agents often send us pictures straight from the inventory. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.

For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover, saving last-minute replacements. We can visit several plots in one trip to keep costs down.

The process

When we visit, we arrive at the time we have agreed, cover the area with dust sheets and masking, and set to work. The job usually takes a few hours, depending on the damage. We tidy up before we leave and tell you when it’s ready to use.

  1. First, the area is cleaned and any loose enamel or rust is removed.
  2. The chip or crack is filled, then sanded level with the bath.
  3. We mix the colour on the day to match your bath’s exact shade.
  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

  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
  • Let the surface dry out before the visit

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Composite and resin

Stone resin and composite baths are heavy and solid. Chips and scratches are filled and matched, just like other baths.

Pressed steel

Steel baths and trays have a thin metal body under the enamel. Exposed steel rusts quickly, so the metal is treated and sealed before the repair.

Common problems we fix in Regil

Rust typically starts where water sits, by the plughole, beneath dripping taps or in an unrepaired chip. Once water reaches the steel or iron, rust spreads under the enamel.

People normally call us when they notice one of these:

  • Chips along the edge of the bath
  • Rust spots around the plughole
  • An old repair that has yellowed or come loose
  • A chip where the taps sit

Questions to ask before booking

  • The length of the guarantee and what it covers
  • Who turns up on the day
  • How changes to the job are handled
  • Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?

Aftercare tips

Once the work has cured, treat it gently:

  • Get a dripping tap fixed promptly
  • Clean with warm water and a mild detergent
  • Give the bath a quick rinse after use
  • Keep abrasive pads and gritty cleaners away from the bath

A repaired bath needs no special treatment. Avoid bleach-based and gritty cleaners and rinse after use.

Avoid standing in a cracked acrylic bath until it’s fixed. Each time it flexes, the crack grows, and water can get through to the floor below.
