Bath repair at your home in Yeovil

Whatever the damage, the aim is the same: 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. Typical jobs include scratches you can feel with a fingernail and a chipped rim or side, across pressed steel enamel, whirlpool & spa baths and cast iron enamel.

You are covered after we leave: each job carries a one-year guarantee, and we explain what it covers before you book.

Common questions in Yeovil

Do you work for landlords and businesses?

Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as homeowners.

Will the repair last?

It should, as long as the bath is firm and the area was prepared well. It carries our one-year guarantee.

Can you redo someone else’s repair?

Generally, yes. Let us know what was used before and we will plan for it.

I rent my home. Can I book you?

We’re happy to deal with the tenant, landlord or agent. Get your landlord’s agreement first.

Do you come to Yeovil?

Yes. We work across the UK and come to Yeovil. Send photos and we’ll quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

How quickly can you book me in?

We will give you dates with your quote. If it’s urgent, say so and we will do what we can.

Is a cracked acrylic bath repairable?

In most cases. We reinforce the crack from behind, then fill and refinish the front, so access behind the panel is important.

Is there a call-out fee?

No. Our quotes include travel, with the same prices everywhere we work.

Different materials, different repairs

Cast iron

Cast iron is heavy and rigid, finished with fired enamel. A chip down to the iron can rust, but the bath itself lasts for generations, so it’s always worth repairing.

Acrylic

Acrylic is light and warm to the touch, but it relies on good support. Repairs to cracks are reinforced from the back.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it won’t stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.

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 is not prepared the repair will not last.

How it works

Here’s how a visit generally runs: we arrive on time, sheet and mask the area around the job, do the job and clear up. Allow a few hours, depending on the damage from start to finish. Before we go, we will explain when it can be used and what to avoid for the first few days.

  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. The colour is tinted by hand until it matches.
  5. Finally, it’s polished to match the shine and left to cure.

Preparing for the visit

  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
  • Let us know which floor the room is on
  • Let us know if it has been repaired before

Related advice

Work for landlords and builders

Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.

We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out photos. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.

Repair or replace: which is better?

A repair makes sense whenever the damage is localised. It’s a fraction of the cost of a new bath and fitting, it takes one visit, and nothing else in the room changes. Prices start from £95. Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Send photos and we’ll give you the exact figure.

What you get with us

  • Work done at your home or business
  • Every repair guaranteed for a year
  • Nothing taken out or refitted
  • Colour-matched on site

What we’re called out for in Yeovil

Many chips happen while the bathroom is being fitted. Tradespeople drop tools and tiles into the bath, and the damage isn’t always spotted until later. Snagging repairs like these are a regular job for us.

Contact us if you’ve noticed:

  • Snagging damage from a refit
  • A cracked acrylic bath
  • Rusty patches near the plughole
  • Chips along the edge of the bath

  • When it can be used again

Choosing a repair company

How we price bath repair

Repairs from £95. You will not pay by the hour. The price is based on:

  • The material
  • The type of damage
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it

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. You get a fixed price from your pictures, so there are no surprises on the day.

Send pictures for a quote

A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. Try to include:

  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • Where you are, by postcode
  • Any details about the material
  • One picture of the entire bath

Pricing is simple: snap the damage close up and then the whole item, send them over with your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price. There is no charge for the quote and no obligation.

When we would advise against a repair

In fairness, some problems need a different fix:

  • A steel bath rusted through
  • Cracks in parts of an acrylic bath we cannot get to from below
  • Water coming from the waste or taps rather than the bath

Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly before booking.

Surfaces we repair
