Should I try a DIY kit first?
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.
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it will not stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.
Bath repair in Welbury without replacing anything
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. Our repair technicians work on pressed steel enamel, whirlpool & spa baths and roll-top & freestanding, and common reasons people get in touch are scratches you can feel with a fingernail and a cracked acrylic bath.
We stand behind the work with a one-year guarantee, so you are covered after the visit.

Work for landlords and builders
For anyone letting property in or around Welbury, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Send pictures for each one and we will price them together.
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.
Aftercare tips
So the finish stays in good condition for years:
- Put a towel in the bath if you are working above it
- Stick to mild cleaners and a soft cloth
- Store metal items away from the bath
- Don’t scrub with anything abrasive
Clean with mild, non-abrasive cleaners and avoid dropping heavy items on the repaired area. Get any new chip seen to quickly, before rust can start.
Until we visit, a strip of waterproof tape over the damage helps, to keep water out. Remove it before the repair.
Repair or replace: which is better?
For damage in one or two places, a repair is the obvious choice. It’s a fraction of the cost of a new bath and fitting, it takes one visit, and the bathroom stays exactly as it is. Prices start from £95. A repair normally costs much less than people expect, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

When to call us in Welbury
Rust normally starts where water sits, by the plughole, beneath dripping taps or in an unrepaired chip. Water on bare metal causes rust that creeps under the surrounding enamel.
The things clients generally mention when they call include:
- Chips along the edge of the bath
- Chips under the taps
- Rusty patches near the plughole
- Deep scratches in acrylic
Before booking anyone
- Who turns up on the day
- How to look after the finish
- Whether the colour is mixed to match
- Whether there are any call-out or travel charges

Welbury: your questions answered
Can I add another job to the visit?
Yes. Doing several items on one visit typically costs less than separate visits. Include photos of each item.
Can you repair something that’s been repaired before?
Yes, we often do. Removing the old work can add time, and that’s in the quote.
How invisible is a bath repair?
We aim for a repair you can’t easily find. The rest of the bath’s condition makes a difference, and we will tell you what to expect.
Will the repair last?
A properly prepared repair should last a long time, and ours come with a one-year guarantee. Gentle cleaning helps it last.
What areas do you cover?
We work UK-wide, so Welbury is covered. Our prices are the same everywhere.
Does someone need to be in?
We need someone to let us in. You don’t need to watch us work.
Is a holed acrylic bath repairable?
Usually. Send us a picture of the hole and one from under the bath if you can.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
Generally, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. If it isn’t worth repairing, we will tell you.
The process
From the moment we arrive, the aim is to do the job without disturbing the rest of your home. Surfaces nearby are masked off, the work takes two to three hours for most chips, depending on what we find, and we finish by cleaning up and talking you through the result.
- First, we check the damage against your pictures and agree the plan.
- Loose enamel, rust and dirt are removed so the repair can bond.
- We build up the filler in layers, shaping it to the bath.
- The colour is tinted by hand until it matches.
- Finally, it’s polished to match the shine and left to cure.
Preparing for the visit
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access

Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £95. Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we look at:
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- How much damage there is
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- Whether we combine several jobs
We charge the same wherever you are, so there is no premium for Welbury. The job itself decides the price: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.
Send pictures for a quote
It only takes a minute to photograph the damage, and it saves a visit. Please include:
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- One picture of the entire bath
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
You do not need a survey visit. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price.
When we would advise against a repair
We will always be straight with you, so here’s what a repair cannot fix:
- Rust that has eaten right through a steel bath
- Flexing caused by a failed cradle or loose feet
- Cracks in acrylic we can’t reach from underneath
Not sure? Send pictures and we will give you a straight answer.
