Bath chip & crack repair in West Lyng, Somerset
Chip and crack repairs to enamel, acrylic and cast iron baths in West Lyng, carried out at your home and guaranteed for a year.
- Repairs from £95
- An old repair that has yellowed or come loose
- Scratches you can feel with a fingernail
The process
Once we’re through the door, the aim is to do the job without disturbing the rest of your home. Surfaces nearby are masked off, the job takes a few hours, and we finish with a tidy-up and a look at the finished work together.
- We clean the area and remove any loose enamel or rust.
- We fill the damage and sand it flush with the surrounding surface.
- We mix the colour on the day to match your bath’s exact shade.
- We apply the finish coats and polish the repair so it blends in.
- Once it has cured, typically by the following day, the bath is ready to use.
Getting ready for the visit
- Open a window if you can
- Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
- Let the surface dry out before the visit

Advice
How we handle bath repair in West Lyng
Repairing baths is what we do most. Chips on the rim, rust around the waste and cracks in acrylic are all fixed without removing the bath, normally in one visit. Whether it’s chips along the edge of the bath and snagging damage from a refit, we can typically put it right, on pressed steel enamel, whirlpool & spa baths and roll-top & freestanding alike.
You get a one-year guarantee, the same in West Lyng as everywhere else we work.

Landlords, agents and businesses in West Lyng
We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams in Somerset and across the UK. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which is easier on the people living there.
Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover, so there is no need to replace a damaged item at the last minute. We can visit several plots in one trip.
West Lyng questions
Can you redo an old repair?
Regularly. The old material comes out, any rust is treated, then we repair it properly.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Of course, and it generally saves money. Send pictures of everything together and you’ll get one combined price.
Will there be a smell?
It depends on the job, but frequently a little. Open windows and an extractor fan help.
Do you cover the entire of Somerset?
All of Somerset, and the rest of the UK. Travel is included in the price.
Do you do work for letting agents?
Yes, often. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.
Can you repair a crack in an acrylic bath?
Most of the time. The back of the crack is strengthened before the front is filled and refinished, so access behind the panel is important.
Are there extra charges for West Lyng?
Travel is included in the price, with the same prices everywhere we work.
Can you quote from pictures?
In nearly every case. If pictures do not show enough, we will ask for another angle.
What a repair can’t fix
We’ll always be straight with you, so here’s what a repair will not do:
- Cracks in acrylic we can’t reach from underneath
- Water coming from the waste or taps rather than the bath
- A whole bath that is dull or worn, where a full re-enamel is the better fix
If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think before booking.
What we work on

Repair or replace in West Lyng?
A new bath costs more than the bath itself: taking out the old one, plumbing, tiling, a panel and redecorating. With a repair, it’s one visit and one price. Our bath repair starts from £95. Instead of hourly rates, we price the whole job up front. Damage, material and access decide it.
Why West Lyng clients choose us
- No extra charge for your area
- Rooms protected and left tidy
- Honest advice, even when it means no job
- Most jobs done in one visit

DIY kit or professional repair?
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, then guarantee it for a year.
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, make sure the area is clean and completely dry, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.
Different materials, different repairs
Acrylic
Acrylic is light and warm to the touch, but it relies on good support. Repairs to cracks are reinforced from the back.
Pressed steel
Pressed steel is thinner and lighter, with an enamel finish like cast iron. Chips rust quickly on steel, especially around the waste, so repair chips early.
Signs you need bath repair in West Lyng
Rust tends to begin where water collects, by the plughole, beneath dripping taps or in an unrepaired chip. Water on bare metal causes rust that creeps under the surrounding enamel.
Look out for these signs:
- Rust spots around the plughole
- Impact holes in acrylic
- A kit repair that didn’t last
- Snagging damage from a refit
What your quote should include
- What prep work is covered
- How long the guarantee is and what it covers
- Aftercare advice
