Need bath repair in West Overton?

For landlords and businesses

Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in West Overton use us as well as homeowners. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it costs much less than replacing.

Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs in Wiltshire and across the UK. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which matters when someone is living in the home.

Bath repair in West Overton without replacing anything

A damaged bath doesn’t have to mean a new bathroom. We fill the damage, shape it to the curve of the bath and refinish it, with the colour mixed on site. We’re frequently asked to fix scratches you can feel with a fingernail and a chipped rim or side, across cast iron enamel, whirlpool & spa baths and pressed steel enamel.

We stand behind the work with a one-year guarantee, so you’re not left on your own once we have gone.

How to look after the repair

Looking after the surface is easy:

  • Give the bath a quick rinse after use
  • Store metal items away from the bath
  • Cover the bath during DIY or decorating
  • Stick to mild cleaners and a soft cloth

There is nothing special to do after a repair, beyond gentle cleaning. Skip bleach and gritty creams and rinse after use.

Rust spreads under enamel faster than most people expect. A chip the size of a fingernail can become a much larger patch if it’s left for months, so early repair keeps the cost down.

Prices and what affects them

Repairs from £95. We price every job individually. What matters most is:

  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • The colour and finish to match

A repair is priced on what needs doing, not your postcode. The full price is agreed before you book.

Getting a price from pictures

You can normally get a fixed quote without us visiting. To help us price it:

  • Natural light rather than flash
  • One picture of the entire bath
  • Details of any past repairs
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates

Pricing is simple: take a close-up of the damage and a photo from further back, send them over with your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote. There is no charge for the quote and no obligation.

Common questions in West Overton

Which areas do you work in?

We cover the entire UK, including West Overton and the rest of Wiltshire. Just include your postcode and we will confirm dates.

Are you accredited?

Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.

I tried a repair kit. Can you fix it?

Yes. We remove the old filler and start again. Tell us about it when you send pictures.

I rent my home. Can I book you?

Yes, but check with your landlord or agent first. Landlords are frequently glad to have it sorted before the end of a tenancy.

What about rust by the waste?

Yes. We take out the rust and any loose enamel, fill the area, then colour-match the finish.

Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?

In most cases, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. We’ll be honest if it’s not worth it.

Is there a call-out fee?

We do not add a call-out fee. Your fixed quote includes everything.

Something went through my bath. Can it be fixed?

Normally. Photos of the hole and the underside help us check.

Repairs by material

Composite and resin

Composite baths are dense and solid, and often freestanding. Chips and scratches are filled and matched, just like other baths.

Cast iron

Cast iron baths are thick and very strong, finished with fired enamel. A chip down to the iron can rust, but the bath itself lasts for generations, so it’s always worth repairing.

When we would advise against a repair

Before booking, it’s worth knowing the limits too:

  • Leaks from the waste or overflow fittings (a plumber’s job)
  • A steel bath rusted through
  • Acrylic cracks with no access behind them

If in doubt, send pictures and we will say what we think before booking.

What we work on

  • Roll-top & freestanding
  • Cast iron enamel
  • Pressed steel enamel
  • Acrylic
  • Whirlpool & spa baths

Repairing versus replacing in West Overton

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. Where the whole surface is tired, we may suggest re-enamelling instead. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. A few things move the price: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Send pictures and you’ll get a fixed figure.

What you get with us

  • No extra charge for your area
  • We will tell you if it’s not worth repairing
  • Free fixed quotes from pictures
  • Nothing taken out or refitted

See our prices page or bath cost comparison.

What we do, step by step

You don’t need to empty the room. Everything we use comes in the van with us, lay protective sheets and get going once we have agreed what we are doing. Most jobs take a few hours, and you are welcome to carry on with your day while we work.

  1. First, we check the damage against your pictures and agree the plan.
  2. Loose enamel, rust and dirt are removed so the repair can bond.
  3. The damage is filled in layers and shaped to the curve of the bath.
  4. We tint the finish by hand to match the bath.
  5. The repair is polished to the same gloss as the bath and left to cure.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Make sure the area is dry
  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
  • Open a window if you can

Advice

DIY repairs versus a professional job

It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is generally the cheaper route.

It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
