Bath repair in Wookey without replacing anything
We repair just the damaged spot and colour-match it to the bath, which is far cheaper than replacing a fitted bath. You can usually use the bath the next day. Whether it’s damage done while the bathroom was being fitted and a cracked acrylic bath, we can help, whatever the material.
We guarantee the work for a year. If something isn’t right in that time, we come back and put it right.

Common questions in Wookey
Is there any odour?
There may be a mild smell during the work.
Can you quote from pictures?
Generally, yes. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed quote.
What happens after I send pictures?
You get a fixed price and available dates. If we need another angle, we will ask.
Is the work guaranteed?
Yes: twelve months. If there is a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.
Can you repair something that is been repaired before?
Yes, we often do. It can add a little time, which we include in the quote.
Is a holed acrylic bath repairable?
In most cases. Send us a photo of the hole and one from under the bath if you can.
Do you do work for letting agents?
Yes. We carry out repairs for householders, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses across Somerset.
What do you need from me?
Send photos through the quote form or call 0345 017 0787, and we will take it from there.
DIY repairs versus a professional job
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, then guarantee it for a year.
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, a professional repair is worth it.
What we do, step by step
From the moment we arrive, we keep the work contained to the one room. We mask off everything nearby, the work takes a few hours, depending on the damage, depending on what we find, and we finish with a tidy-up and a look at the finished work together.
- 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.
- 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
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
- Have a window or extractor fan available
- Tell us about parking, stairs or access
How to get a price
Most customers in Wookey get their price from photos. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we’ll send back a fixed quote and some dates.

Honest limits
A repair is not always the answer, and we would rather say so up front. We cannot fix:
- Flexing caused by a failed cradle or loose feet
- Leaks from the waste or overflow fittings (a plumber’s job)
- Rust that has eaten right through a steel bath
Not sure? Send photos and we’ll give you a straight answer before booking.
Materials we repair
- Cast iron enamel
- Whirlpool & spa baths
- Pressed steel enamel
- Acrylic
- Roll-top & freestanding
How to care for the repair
So the finish stays in good condition:
- Avoid scourers, wire wool and gritty cream cleaners
- Store metal items away from the bath
- Have new chips seen to early
- Get a dripping tap fixed promptly
There’s nothing special to do after a repair, just sensible cleaning. 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 it pays to deal with it early.
Why repair rather than replace?
When the bath is otherwise sound, repairing beats replacing. It’s quicker, cheaper and far less disruptive, and you keep the bath you chose. Where the entire surface is tired, we may suggest re-enamelling instead. Prices start from £95. Every job is a little different, so we price each one individually. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all play a part, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.
Why us?
- Colour mixed on the day to match
- We’ll tell you if it’s not worth repairing
- Rooms protected and left tidy
- Free fixed quotes from pictures

How we price bath repair
Repairs from £95. Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we take into account:
- How easy the damage is to reach
- The size and number of damaged areas
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- Whether we combine several jobs
The price depends on how much damage there is and what kind, what it’s made of and how many jobs we combine into one visit. We give a fixed price from your pictures, so you know the cost before booking.
Getting a price from photos
Good photos mean an accurate price. Here’s what we find most useful:
- Where you are, by postcode
- A photo taken from further back
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
Getting a price is easy: take a close-up of the damage and a photo from further back, send them over with your postcode, and you will get a fixed quote back. There’s no charge for the quote and no obligation.

Other services in Wookey
Work for landlords and builders
For anyone letting property in or around Wookey, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Send pictures for each one and we will price them together.
Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Wookey use us as well as householders. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it normally costs far less than a refit.
Common problems we fix in Wookey
Rust tends to begin where water collects, by the plughole, beneath dripping taps or in an unrepaired chip. Water on bare metal causes rust that creeps under the surrounding enamel.
Send us a photo if you notice any of these:
- A chipped rim or side
- Impact holes in acrylic
- Damage beneath the taps
- Rust by the waste and overflow
What your quote should include
- Who turns up on the day
- How to care for the finish
- What happens if the damage is worse than the pictures show
- What protection goes down before work starts
