Bath repair for Westbury homes

Bath repair at your home in Westbury

Whatever has happened to the bath, we aim for the same result: a smooth, solid repair that blends in. We prepare the area properly, fill and shape it, then match the colour and gloss so it sits flush with the rest of the bath. We’re often asked to fix snagging damage from a refit and chips along the edge of the bath, across whirlpool & spa baths, cast iron enamel and pressed steel enamel.

Whatever the size of the job, it’s backed by a one-year guarantee.

When a repair is not the answer

A repair isn’t always the answer, and we’ll tell you before we start. We can’t fix:

  • Acrylic cracks with no access behind them
  • Rust that has eaten right through a steel bath
  • A whole bath that’s dull or worn, where a full re-enamel is the better fix

Not sure? Send photos and we will give you a straight answer.

Materials we repair

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

What happens on the day

The work is clean and fairly quiet. We protect the area first, then the job itself takes a morning or an afternoon. At the end we talk you through the curing time and the aftercare.

  1. First, we check the damage against your pictures and agree the plan.
  2. Any rust and loose material comes out, and the area is degreased.
  3. The damage is filled in layers and shaped to the curve of the bath.
  4. The colour is tinted by hand until it matches.
  5. Finally, it’s polished to match the shine and left to cure.

How to prepare

  • Point us to the nearest place to park
  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
  • Have a window or extractor fan available

Related advice

Can I fix it myself?

If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.

We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Pressed steel

Steel baths are lighter than cast iron, but have a similar enamel surface. Chips rust quickly on steel, particularly by the plughole, so repair chips early.

Composite and resin

Composite baths are dense and solid, and frequently freestanding. Chips and scratches can be filled and colour-matched, in much the same way.

Common questions in Westbury

Do I have to be there?

Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time we agree with you.

Is my repair covered?

Yes, for a year. If there’s a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.

Do you repair coloured baths?

Yes. We mix the colour on the day to match, including pastel and older colours.

It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?

Generally, yes. Tell us what was done before and we will plan for it.

What happens once I’ve sent pictures?

We check the damage, the material and your postcode, then reply with a quote with dates.

Can you redo an old repair?

Yes. We remove the old filler and start again. Mention it when you send pictures.

Can you repair a hole in a bath?

Typically. Send us a picture of the hole and one from under the bath if you can.

Will it make a mess?

Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and we clean up when we have finished.

How to care for the repair

Nothing complicated is needed, just a few sensible habits:

  • Keep abrasive pads and gritty cleaners away from the bath
  • Rinse the bath after use, especially in hard water areas
  • If an acrylic bath flexes, have its feet adjusted
  • Fix dripping taps early to stop staining and limescale

Treat the repaired area like the rest of the bath: warm water, washing-up liquid and a soft cloth. Avoid scourers and gritty cream cleaners.

A small chip is a quick job. Left alone, they stain and can rust, so early repair saves time and money.

Repair or replace in Westbury?

Cast iron baths in particular are worth repairing: getting one out, particularly from an upstairs bathroom, is a big job, and replacing like for like isn’t cheap. A repair keeps it in place. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Rather than charging by the hour, we price the whole job up front. Damage, material and access decide it.

Why us?

  • Same prices wherever you are
  • Colour-matched on site
  • Generally one visit, start to finish
  • One-year guarantee on every repair

For landlords and businesses

Hospitality businesses can’t afford rooms out of action for long, so we keep visits short and tidy. We can work around your bookings.

Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs in Northamptonshire and across the UK. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which is easier on the people living there.

What we are called out for in Westbury

Glass and heavy bottles cause more chips than anything else, closely followed by shower heads. Taps and wastes cause problems too: water collects there, so chips nearby rust quickly.

You may need us if you’ve spotted any of these:

  • An old repair that has yellowed or come loose
  • Damage done while the bathroom was being fitted
  • Chips on the rim or sides
  • Cracks in an acrylic bath

Before booking anyone

  • Aftercare advice
  • Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT
  • Whether the colour is mixed to match
  • Whether a trained technician does the job
