Trusted bath repair in Woodlands

Why repair rather than replace?

A repair makes sense whenever the damage is localised. It’s a fraction of the cost of a new bath and fitting, it’s done in one visit, and the bathroom stays exactly as it is. Our bath repair starts from £95. A repair normally costs much less than people expect, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Send pictures and we will give you the exact figure.

  • CHAS and Constructionline accredited
  • We come to you, anywhere in the UK

About our bath repair in Woodlands

Most bath damage, from chips and cracks to rust spots and holes, can be repaired with the bath left exactly where it is. There is no plumbing to disconnect, your tiles stay as they are, and the finish is matched to the rest of the bath. We work on roll-top & freestanding, acrylic and whirlpool & spa baths, and the jobs we see most are holes from dropped items and rust spots around the plughole.

All of our repairs are guaranteed for twelve months, and the guarantee is the same wherever you live. We return to put right any problem with the work.

What we do, step by step

We agree an arrival time beforehand, so you know when to expect us. Once we’re there, the work takes a few hours, depending on the damage for most jobs. We leave the room clean and ready to use once it has cured.

  1. We start by looking at the damage and confirming the plan with you.
  2. Any rust and loose material comes out, and the area is degreased.
  3. We build up the filler in layers, shaping it to the bath.
  4. The colour is tinted by hand until it matches.
  5. The repair is polished to the same gloss as the bath and left to cure.

Preparing for the visit

  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
  • Let us know about parking or access

Repairs by material

Cast iron

Cast iron baths are thick and very strong, finished with fired enamel. A chip down to the iron can rust, but the body of the bath lasts a very long time, so it’s always worth repairing.

Composite and resin

Stone resin and composite baths are heavy and solid, and frequently freestanding. Chips and scratches are filled and matched, just like other baths.

Common questions in Woodlands

Will the repair last?

Yes, if it’s prepared properly and the bath is sound. It carries our one-year guarantee.

Do you come to Woodlands?

Yes. We cover the entire UK and come to Woodlands and the rest of Somerset. Send us photos for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

What happens next?

We come back with a fixed price. There is no obligation to book.

Do I need to be at home?

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

Can you repair several things at once?

Yes, and it’s frequently cheaper. Just add the extra items to your photos and you will get one combined price.

When can I have a bath again?

Usually within a day, depending on the repair.

How do I book?

Is it messy?

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

What we are called out for in Woodlands

Glass and heavy bottles cause more chips than anything else, closely followed by shower heads. Fittings cause damage too: water sits around them, and any chip there soon rusts.

Signs it’s time to call us include:

  • A kit repair that didn’t last
  • Rust by the waste and overflow
  • Chips caused by builders
  • Cracks in an acrylic bath

How to compare quotes

What affects the price in Woodlands

Repairs from £95. Every quote is fixed and free. What we take into account:

  • The material
  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it

There are no surprise extras on the day. What we quote from your photos is what you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.

Getting a price from photos

Good pictures mean an accurate price. Here’s what we find most useful:

  • Where you are, by postcode
  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • Details of any past repairs
  • Any details about the material

No survey visit is needed: we price from photos. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, it’s worth having it done properly.

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.

For landlords and businesses

Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover, saving last-minute replacements. We can visit several plots in one trip to keep costs down.

If you manage property in Woodlands, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Send pictures for each one and we’ll come back with a combined price.

When a repair isn’t the answer

Some jobs are not right for a repair, including:

  • Acrylic cracks with no access behind them
  • Water coming from the waste or taps rather than the bath
  • A bath that moves underfoot, until its support is fixed

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