Bath repair at your home in Witheridge
Small damage on a bath is worth repairing early. On steel and cast iron, exposed metal starts to rust, while cracks in acrylic grow each time the bath moves. Repairing it stops the damage getting worse. Whether it’s rust spots around the plughole and a failed DIY repair that’s discoloured or lifting, we can help, on acrylic, cast iron enamel and roll-top & freestanding alike.
We stand behind the work with a one-year guarantee, so you’re covered after the visit.

- Chips caused by builders
- Cracks in an acrylic bath
- A chipped rim or side
- Rust by the waste and overflow
What your quote should include
- How changes to the job are handled
- How the room is protected while they work
- Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT
- Whether there are any call-out or travel charges
How it works
Your technician turns up at the time we agreed with you and checks the damage against your photos first. The floor and nearby surfaces are covered before any work starts. The work itself takes a morning or an afternoon, and the room is left clean and tidy.
- We start by looking at the damage and confirming the plan with you.
- Any rust and loose material comes out, and the area is degreased.
- The damage is filled in layers and shaped to the curve of the bath.
- We tint the finish by hand to match the bath.
- The repair is polished to the same gloss as the bath and left to cure.
Before we arrive
- Ensure the area is dry
- Let us know if it has been repaired before
- Ensure the room can be ventilated

Advice
What we cannot put right
A few problems are outside what a surface repair can do:
- A steel bath rusted through
- Leaks from the waste or overflow fittings (a plumber’s job)
- Wear across the whole surface, which needs re-enamelling

What we work on
- Pressed steel enamel
- Cast iron enamel
- Acrylic
- Whirlpool & spa baths
- Roll-top & freestanding
Should you replace it?
Cast iron baths in particular are worth repairing: they’re very heavy to remove, especially upstairs, and a like-for-like replacement can be expensive. A repair keeps it in place. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. A repair is priced on what needs doing, not your postcode. You will see the full price before booking.
Why us?

- Straight answers about what a repair can do
- No extra charge for your area
- Rooms protected and left tidy

What your bath is made of matters
Cast iron
Cast iron baths are so heavy that repairing in place makes obvious sense. The enamel is the part that wears or chips, and that is the part we put right.
Composite and resin
Stone resin and composite baths are heavy and solid. Chips and scratches can be filled and colour-matched, just like other baths.
For landlords and businesses
Rented homes see more wear and tear, 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.
For anyone letting property in or around Witheridge, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Send photos for each one and we will price them together.
Should I try a DIY kit first?
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it will not stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.

Witheridge questions
Do you charge for travel?
We do not add a call-out fee. Your fixed price includes everything.
What happens next?
We look at the photos and reply with a fixed quote and some dates. If we need another angle, we will ask.
What happens if you find more damage?
If we find something the pictures didn’t show, we explain it first. You decide whether to go ahead.
Do you work for landlords and businesses?
Yes. We carry out repairs for homeowners, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses.
Can you do more than one item on the same visit?
Yes. Doing several items on one visit generally costs less than separate visits. Include photos of each item.
Will there be a smell?
It depends on the job, but often a little. Open windows and an extractor fan help, and it soon fades.
Can rust on a bath be repaired?
Yes. We take out the rust and any loose enamel, fill the area, then colour-match the finish.
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
Just keep them out of the work area. We will tell you when the room can be used again.
Looking after it afterwards
Simple care helps the repair last. We recommend:
- Keep abrasive pads and gritty cleaners away from the bath
- A dripping tap stains enamel, so fix it early
- If an acrylic bath flexes, have its feet adjusted
- Don’t leave a fresh chip for long
Use gentle, non-abrasive cleaners and try not to drop heavy bottles on the repair. Deal with new chips early, before rust sets in.
Tape over a fresh chip or crack until it’s repaired, to keep water out. Remove it before the repair.
