Bath repair at your home in Walcot
A repair fixes just the damaged area and blends it into the rest of the bath, which is far cheaper than replacing a fitted bath and the tiles around it. You can usually use the bath the following day. Whether it’s a cracked acrylic bath and damage done while the bathroom was being fitted, we can typically put it right.
Big or small, it’s backed by a one-year guarantee.

What we are called out for in Walcot
Dropped items cause the majority of chips, and a lot happen during bathroom refits. Cracks in acrylic have a different cause: poor support underneath, so the bath flexes when it’s full.
The most common problems we’re called about are:
- Scuffs and scratches in the surface
- Rust by the waste and overflow
- A chip where the taps sit
- A cracked acrylic bath

What bath repair costs
Prices start from £95. There’s no area surcharge for Walcot. What changes the price is:
- Doing more than one item at once
- The material and finish
- How easy the damage is to reach
- The colour and finish to match
We do not add extras on the day. The price we quote from your pictures is the price you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.
Send photos for a quote
You can typically get a fixed quote without us visiting. To make it quick:
- What it’s made of, if you know
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- A picture taken from further back
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
A quote takes minutes to ask for: take one close-up and one wider shot of the bath, include your postcode and send them over. You will get a fixed price, not an estimate.
For landlords and businesses
We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, putting right damage done during fitting. We’re CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.
For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover, so there’s no need to replace a damaged item at the last minute. Several plots can be done in one visit.

Your questions about bath repair in Walcot
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
Yes, as long as they stay out of the room we are working in. We will tell you when the room can be used again.
Can you repair several things at once?
Yes. Doing several items on one visit usually costs less than separate visits. Include pictures of each item.
How long does the repair take to cure?
Normally the next day. We will tell you the exact curing time when we finish.
Can a cracked acrylic bath be fixed?
Often, yes, if we can reach the underside to reinforce it. Check under the bath panel, or send us a picture.
Can you repair a hole in a bath?
Generally, yes, if we can reach behind it. The hole is backed, filled and refinished to match.
Do you repair coloured baths?
Yes, we match coloured baths too. The colour is tinted by hand on the day.
Is repairing better than replacing?
Generally, when the rest is in good condition. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. If replacing would be better, we’ll say so.
Can you price it without visiting?
Yes, almost always. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed quote.
How it works
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. We clean up when we’re done and tell you when it’s ready to use.
- Dust sheets and masking go down around the bath.
- We clean, key and degrease the damage, and any rust is treated.
- Filler goes in and is sanded flush once it has set.
- We match both the colour and the shine.
- We tidy up and tell you when the bath can be used, normally the day after.
Getting ready for the visit
- Ensure the area is dry
- Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work

Honest limits

- A bath that moves underfoot, until its support is fixed
- Cracks in parts of an acrylic bath we can’t get to from below
- Water coming from the waste or taps rather than the bath
Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly before you book.
What we work on
- Acrylic
- Whirlpool & spa baths
- Pressed steel enamel
- Cast iron enamel
- Roll-top & freestanding
Repair or replace: which is better?
Cast iron baths especially are worth keeping: they’re very heavy to remove, especially upstairs, and replacing like for like isn’t cheap. Repairing it leaves it where it is. Prices start from £95. A repair generally costs much less than people expect, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Photos let us give you the exact figure.
Why book with us
- Colour mixed on the day to match
- We come to you, anywhere in the UK
- Dust sheets down, tidy finish
- No extra charge for your area

DIY repairs versus a professional job
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is typically the cheaper route.
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.
What your bath is made of matters
Composite and resin
Composite baths are dense and solid. Chips and scratches can be filled and colour matched, just like other baths.
Pressed steel
Steel baths are lighter than cast iron, but have a similar enamel surface. Chips rust quickly on steel, especially around the waste, so repair chips early.
