Bath repair in Wilsford without replacing anything
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 work on whirlpool & spa baths, acrylic and cast iron enamel, and common reasons people get in touch are damage beneath the taps and an old repair that has yellowed or come loose.
The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If there is a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it.

- First, we check the damage against your photos 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.
- We tint the finish by hand to match the bath.
- Finally, it’s polished to match the shine and left to cure.
How to prepare

Signs you need bath repair in Wilsford
Rust usually starts where water sits, by the plughole, beneath dripping taps or in an unrepaired chip. Once water reaches the steel or iron, rust spreads under the enamel.
It’s worth getting a quote if you see:
- Scratches you can feel with a fingernail

DIY repairs versus a professional job
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair will not last.
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is usually cheaper.
Repairing versus replacing in Wilsford
If the rest of the bath is in good condition, a repair is almost always the better choice. It costs less, takes less time and causes far less upheaval, and you keep the bath you chose. Where the entire surface is tired, we may suggest re-enamelling instead. Our bath repair starts from £95. There are no surprise extras on the day. The price we quote from your photos is the price you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.
Why book with us
- Colour mixed on the day to match
- We’ll tell you if it’s not worth repairing
- One visit for most repairs
- No extra charge for your area

For landlords and businesses
Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, fixing chips and scratches before handover. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.
Rental properties take more wear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.
Your questions about bath repair in Wilsford
Can you repair a hole in a bath?
Typically. Photos of the hole and the underside help us check.
Is a bath repair permanent?
Done properly, a repair lasts for years, and ours come with a one-year guarantee. Gentle cleaning helps it last.
Do you come to Wilsford?
Yes, we do. We send a technician to Wilsford for every job, and the price is the same as everywhere else.
Can you fix rust around the plughole?
Yes, very frequently. The rust is cut back to clean metal and sealed before we fill and finish it.
Can you repair a failed DIY repair?
Yes, we do this frequently. We strip it out, deal with any rust and repair it again.
Do I have to be there?
Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time we agree with you.
Can you match an avocado or pink bath?
Yes, coloured baths are no problem. The colour is tinted by hand on the day.
Is it messy?
Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and tidy up before we leave.
Aftercare tips
To keep it looking its best:
- Keep metal cans and razors off the surface
- Do not leave a fresh chip for long
- Do not scrub with anything abrasive
- Clean with warm water and a mild detergent
There’s nothing special to do after a repair. Skip bleach and gritty creams.
Rust spreads under enamel faster than most people expect. Left for months, a small chip can grow into a large rust patch, so early repair keeps the cost down.
Different materials, different repairs
Acrylic
Acrylic is light and warm to the touch, but it needs firm support underneath. Cracks are strengthened from behind before the front is finished.
Pressed steel
Pressed steel is thinner and lighter, with an enamel finish like cast iron. Chips rust quickly on steel, particularly by the plughole, so repair chips early.
