Bath repair in and around West Hewish: photo quotes, tidy work and a year’s guarantee.
- Repairs from £95
- A chip where the taps sit
- Holes from dropped items
What your bath is made of matters
Pressed steel
Under the enamel of a steel bath is thin metal. Exposed steel rusts quickly, so the metal is treated and sealed before the repair.
Composite and resin
Composite baths are dense and solid. Chips and scratches can be filled and colour-matched, just like other baths.
How we handle bath repair in West Hewish
Most bath damage, from chips and cracks to rust spots and holes, can be repaired with the bath left exactly where it is. Nothing is unplumbed, the tiles are not touched, and the finish is matched to the rest of the bath. Typical jobs include chips under the taps and chips caused by builders, in cast iron enamel, pressed steel enamel and acrylic.
You are covered after we leave: our one-year guarantee applies to every job, and we explain what it covers before you book.

What bath repair costs
Repairs from £95. There is no area surcharge for West Hewish. What changes the price is:
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- Doing more than one item at once
- How many areas need work
- What kind of damage it is
Set against the cost of replacement, repairing generally costs far less, because there is no removal, plumbing or making good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.
Getting a price from pictures
Phone photos are fine. Make sure they show:
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- A picture taken from further back
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
Call 0345 017 0787 or use the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the whole bath, we can give you a fixed price.
DIY repairs versus a professional job
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.
Looking after it afterwards
It’s all simple stuff:
- Fix dripping taps early to stop staining and limescale
- If an acrylic bath flexes, have its feet adjusted
- Keep metal cans and razors off the surface
- Avoid scourers, wire wool and gritty cream cleaners
Leave the repair to cure for as long as we say before using the bath. After that, gentle cleaning keeps it looking good.
Rust spreads under enamel faster than most people expect. Left for months, a small chip can grow into a large rust patch, so it pays to deal with it early.
When a repair is not the answer
Before you book, it’s worth knowing the limits too:
- Leaking fittings, which need a plumber
- A bath that moves underfoot, until its support is fixed
- A bath worn all over, where resurfacing makes more sense
If in doubt, send photos and we will say what we think before you book.

What happens on the day
It’s a tidy, low-fuss visit. We agree the arrival time in advance, cover and mask the work area, then carry out the work, which normally takes a few hours, depending on the damage. If we find something your pictures didn’t show, we’ll explain it before carrying on.
- First, we check the damage against your photos and agree the plan.
- Any rust and loose material comes out, and the area is degreased.
- We build up the filler in layers, shaping it to the bath.
- We tint the finish by hand to match the bath.
- Finally, it’s polished to match the shine and left to cure.
Getting ready for the visit
- Open a window if you can
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
- Let the surface dry out before the visit

West Hewish questions
Can you do more than one item on the same visit?
Of course, and it normally saves money. Just add the extra items to your photos and we will quote them together.
Will you leave a mess?
No. The work area is masked and covered, and we leave the room clean.
Do you do work for letting agents?
Yes, often. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
Yes, we often do. It can add a little time, which we include in the quote.
Is a bath repair permanent?
Done properly, a repair lasts for years, and it’s guaranteed for a year. Gentle cleaning helps.
What areas do you cover?
Across the UK, and that includes West Hewish. Prices do not change with location.
Can you quote from pictures?
Generally, yes. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed price.
Is repairing better than replacing?
Typically, if the item is otherwise sound. A repair avoids removal and making good. We’ll tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.
Should you replace it?
When the bath is otherwise sound, repairing beats replacing. It costs less, takes less time and causes far less upheaval, and the bathroom stays as it is. If the whole surface is worn, re-enamelling may make more sense, and we’ll tell you. Our bath repair starts from £95. No two jobs are quite the same, so we price each one individually. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all play a part, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.
