Trusted bath repair in Woollard

Keeping it looking good

It’s all simple stuff:

  • A dripping tap stains enamel, so fix it early
  • Give the bath a quick rinse after use
  • Protect the bath with a towel when doing jobs nearby
  • Don’t leave a fresh chip for long

Look after the repair the same way as the bath: warm water, washing-up liquid and a soft cloth. Keep scouring pads and gritty cleaners away from it.

Avoid standing in a cracked acrylic bath until it’s fixed. Every use opens the crack a little more, and it can start to leak underneath.

Bath repair in Woollard without replacing anything

Most of our bath repairs take a few hours, and you can usually bathe again the next day. There is no need to book a plumber or tiler, because the bath does not move. Typical jobs include damage done while the bathroom was being fitted and a cracked acrylic bath, on pressed steel enamel, roll-top & freestanding and acrylic.

All our work comes with a one-year guarantee, wherever you are in Bath and North East Somerset.

Repairs by material

Acrylic

Acrylic feels warm and is light, but it needs firm support underneath. Repairs to cracks are reinforced from the back.

Pressed steel

Steel baths are lighter than cast iron, but have a similar enamel surface. Exposed steel rusts fast, especially around the waste, so early repairs matter.

Do you need bath repair in Woollard?

A cracked acrylic bath usually wasn’t supported properly. Loose legs, no proper cradle or a floor that gives let the bath move until the acrylic gives way.

Keep an eye out for any of the following:

  • Rust spots around the plughole
  • Hairline or through cracks in acrylic
  • Chips caused by builders
  • A chipped rim or side

What your quote should include

  • Aftercare advice
  • Whether a trained technician does the job
  • How the colour is matched
  • What prep work is covered

10 questions to ask before booking

What bath repair costs

Prices start from £95. We price every job individually, from your photos. What matters most is:

  • Access to the area
  • Doing more than one item at once
  • What the surface is made of
  • How hard the colour is to match

A repair typically costs much less than people expect, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

Getting a price from pictures

You can take the photos on your phone. Ensure they show:

  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • A picture taken from further back
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • Where you are, by postcode

There’s no need for us to visit first. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed price.

FAQs for Woollard

Is it OK to have pets in the house?

We ask you to keep children and pets out of the room while we work. Everywhere else in the home is fine.

Can you repair a crack in an acrylic bath?

Often, yes, if we can reach the underside to reinforce it. Take off the bath panel and check, or send us a picture.

I tried a repair kit. Can you fix it?

Yes, we do this frequently. The old material comes out, any rust is treated, then we repair it properly.

Can tenants book a repair?

Yes, though it’s best to check with your landlord first. Many landlords are happy for a repair to be arranged before the end of a tenancy.

Does someone need to be in?

We need someone to let us in. You do not need to watch us work.

Are you a vetted contractor?

We’re accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.

Can you repair a chip on a coloured bath?

Yes, coloured baths are no problem. We tint the finish to your bath on site.

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

Yes, regularly. It can add a little time, which we include in the quote.

Landlord and trade work in Woollard

Letting agents frequently send us photos straight from the inventory. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.

We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams in Bath and North East Somerset and across the UK. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which is easier on the people living there.

What a repair cannot fix

Before you book, it’s worth knowing the limits:

  • Rust that has eaten right through a steel bath
  • Acrylic cracks with no access behind them
  • Flexing caused by a failed cradle or loose feet

Send us pictures and we will tell you honestly.

What happens on the day

Arrival times are agreed in advance, so you know when to expect us. On site, it takes a few hours. The room is left tidy and you’ll know when it can be used.

  1. First, we check the damage against your photos and agree the plan.
  2. Loose enamel, rust and dirt are removed so the repair can bond.
  3. We build up the filler in layers, shaping it to the bath.
  4. We tint the finish by hand to match the bath.
  5. Finally, it’s polished to match the shine and left to cure.

How to prepare

  • Make sure the room can be ventilated
  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
  • Keep a parking space free if you can

Related advice

Should you replace it?

For damage in one or two places, a repair is the obvious choice. It costs far less than a new bath plus fitting, it takes one visit, and the bathroom stays exactly as it is. Prices start from £95. A repair is priced on what needs doing, not where you live. The full price is agreed before booking, with no extras added later.
