Bath chip & crack repair in Walford, Somerset
Problem with your bath in Walford? We put it right where it is, mix the colour on the day and back it with a one-year guarantee.
- Repairs from £95
- Chips along the edge of the bath
- Chips caused by builders
Keeping it looking good
Aftercare is simple, and it makes a real difference:
- Check that an acrylic bath doesn’t move when you stand in it
- Do not scrub with anything abrasive
- Protect the bath with a towel when doing jobs nearby
- Get any new chip repaired before it rusts
Look after the repair the same way as the bath: a soft cloth and washing-up liquid is all it needs. Keep scouring pads and gritty cleaners away from it.
If water is getting through a crack, stop using the bath. Leaks under a bath can damage floors and ceilings.
Bath repair at your home in Walford
You don’t need a new bath because of a chip. We fill the damage, shape it to the curve of the bath and refinish it, mixing the colour on the day so the repair is hard to spot. Whether it’s chips under the taps and rust by the waste and overflow, we can usually put it right.
You’re covered for a year from the day of the repair. Just call us if there’s a problem and we’ll come back.

What we are called out for in Walford
Rust generally 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.
You may need us if you’ve spotted any of these:
- A chipped rim or side
- Hairline or through cracks in acrylic
- Deep scratches in acrylic
- Rusty patches near the plughole

Can I fix it myself?
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, a professional repair is worth it.
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 the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
How we price bath repair
Repairs from £95. We give every job a fixed quote from photos. These are the things that affect it:
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- The material and finish
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- Doing more than one item at once
The price depends on the type and amount of damage, what it’s made of and how many jobs we combine into one visit. You get a fixed price from your photos, so you know the cost before you book.
How to get a fixed quote
Before you send pictures, these tips help us give you a firm price:
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- What it’s made of, if you know
You don’t need a survey visit. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we will come back to you with a fixed figure.
Materials and what they mean for the repair
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.
Cast iron
A cast iron bath is heavy enough that most people never want to move it. The enamel is the part that wears or chips, and that’s the part we put right.

Why repair rather than replace?
Think about the hidden costs of a new bath: removal and disposal, plumbing, a new panel, tiling and decorating. A repair is one job, done in one visit. Prices start from £95. A few things move the price: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Send pictures and you’ll get a fixed figure.

- Colour-matched on site
- Rooms protected and left tidy

Landlord and trade work in Walford

Your questions about bath repair in Walford
Will the repair show?
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.
What about rust by the waste?
Yes. We remove the rust and loose enamel, fill the area, then colour-match the finish.
Are you accredited?
Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.
Will there be a smell?
A little, depending on the job. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum.
What do you need from me?
A close-up, a wider photo and your postcode. Then we will agree a date.
Can tenants book a repair?
Yes, but check with your landlord or agent first. Landlords are often glad to have it sorted before the end of a tenancy.
How do I get a price for bath repair in Walford?
Prices start from £95. Because every job differs, we price from pictures. You know the full cost before anything is booked.
Do you come to Walford?
Yes. We cover the whole UK and travel to Walford and the rest of Somerset. Send pictures and we’ll quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
How the visit works
Nothing needs to be moved out of the room. Everything we use comes in the van with us, put protection down and get going once we have agreed what we are doing. It normally takes a morning or an afternoon, and you can get on with other things while we’re there.
- First, the area is cleaned and any loose enamel or rust is removed.
- Next we fill the damage and sand it smooth and level.
- The colour is mixed on the spot to match your bath.
- We apply the finish coats and polish the repair so it blends in.
- Once it has cured, normally by the following day, the bath is ready to use.
Before we arrive
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
- Point us to the nearest place to park
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
Ask for a price
A quote takes minutes to ask for: take one close-up and one wider shot of the bath, add your postcode and send them to us. You will get a fixed price, not an estimate.
