Bath Repair in Rodmarton
Damaged bath in Rodmarton? We repair it in place, mix the colour on the day and back it with a one-year guarantee.
- Repairs from £95
- Chips along the edge of the bath
- Damage done while the bathroom was being fitted
How to look after the repair
Most damage we see is avoidable. A few tips:
- Get any new chip repaired before it rusts
- Keep abrasive pads and gritty cleaners away from the bath
- Get a dripping tap fixed promptly
- Cover the bath during DIY or decorating
Keep metal objects like razors and cans off the surface, because they can mark the enamel. And fix dripping taps promptly.
Until we visit, a strip of waterproof tape over the damage helps, to keep water out. Take it off before we arrive.
Bath repair at your home in Rodmarton
A typical bath repair is a few hours’ work, and you can normally bathe again the following day. There’s no need to book a plumber or tiler, because nothing is disconnected. We regularly repair acrylic, cast iron enamel and pressed steel enamel, and common reasons people get in touch are rust by the waste and overflow and chips caused by builders.

FAQs for Rodmarton
Do you repair coloured baths?
Yes, we match coloured baths too. We tint the finish to your bath on site.
Is a holed acrylic bath repairable?
In most cases. Photos of the hole and the underside help us check.
How much does bath repair cost in Rodmarton?
Repairs from £95. The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from pictures. You know the full cost before anything is booked.
Is a repair better than a new one?
In most cases, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. If it is not worth repairing, we will tell you.
How long before I can use the bath?
Most baths can be used the next day. We will tell you the exact curing time when we finish.
Is the work guaranteed?
Every repair comes with a one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.
What happens after I send pictures?
You get a fixed price and available dates. If we need another angle, we’ll ask.
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
Of course. Check with your landlord; we can send the quote to them too.
How it works
There is not much you need to do on the day. Show us the job, point us to the room, and we’ll get on with it. Most visits take two to three hours for most chips, including clearing up.

- The damaged area is cleaned, keyed and degreased.

- We clear up and give you the curing time, normally until the day after.

Advice
Landlords, agents and businesses in Rodmarton
Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover, saving last-minute replacements. We can visit several plots in one trip to keep costs down.
Rental properties take more wear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.
What affects the price in Rodmarton
Prices start from £95. There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price depends on:
- Access to the area
- What the surface is made of
- Unusual colours or finishes
- The type of damage
The price depends on the type and amount of damage, the material and how many items we do on one visit. We give a fixed price from your photos, so you know the cost before booking.
Getting a price from pictures
Before you send photos, these tips help us give you a firm price:
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- A wider photo showing the whole bath
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
A quote takes minutes to ask for: photograph the damage, then the entire bath, include your postcode and send them over. You’ll get a fixed price, not an estimate.
Repairs by material
Composite and resin
Composite baths are dense and solid, and often freestanding. Chips and scratches are filled and matched, just like other baths.
Cast iron
A cast iron bath is heavy enough that most people never want to move it. Only the enamel surface wears or chips, and that is what we repair.
Repair or replace: which is better?
Many people think a damaged bath means a new one. In most cases it doesn’t: a proper repair gives it years more use, without the cost and upheaval of replacing it. Our bath repair starts from £95. Compared with replacing, a repair is typically a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. The quote lists exactly what you’re paying for.
