Bath repair at your home in SN16

It pays to repair bath damage while it’s small. Exposed metal on enamelled baths soon rusts, and on acrylic, a crack keeps spreading while the bath flexes. Repairing it stops the damage getting worse. We’re often asked to fix holes from dropped items and cracks in an acrylic bath, in whirlpool & spa baths, pressed steel enamel and roll-top & freestanding.

Arrival times are agreed in advance, so you are not left guessing. On site, it takes a few hours. We leave the room clean and you will know when it can be used.

  1. Dust sheets and masking go down around the bath.
  2. The damaged area is cleaned, keyed and degreased, and any rust is treated.
  3. We fill it, let it set, then sand it flush.
  4. Colour and gloss are matched to the surrounding surface.
  5. We clear up and give you the curing time, normally until the following day.

What’s near Malmesbury

Around Malmesbury, we work in homes near The Three Cups Public House, Malmesbury Church of England School and Music Academy and Malmesbury Church of England Primary School, among other places.

Aftercare tips

Nothing complicated is needed, just a few sensible habits:

  • Use a soft cloth and washing-up liquid for everyday cleaning
  • Rinse it down after each bath
  • Cover the bath during DIY or decorating
  • Get a dripping tap fixed promptly

In the first few days, avoid putting weight or bottles on the repair. After that, clean it as you would the rest of the bath.

If water is getting through a crack, stop using the bath until it’s repaired. Leaks under a bath can damage floors and ceilings.

What affects the price in SN16

Repairs from £95. Prices are worked out job by job, from your photos. The main factors are:

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

The price reflects the work involved, not your postcode. The full price is agreed before booking, with nothing added on the day.

Quotes from your photos

When you take your pictures, a few simple things make all the difference:

  • Details of any past repairs
  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • Natural light rather than flash
  • What it’s made of, if you know

Most clients in SN16 get their price from photos. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we’ll send back a fixed quote and some dates.

DIY kit or professional repair?

We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.

For a hairline mark somewhere you will never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.

Different materials, different repairs

Cast iron

Cast iron is heavy and rigid, with a fused enamel surface. Chips can rust if left, but the body of the bath lasts a very long time, which makes it well worth repairing.

Pressed steel

Steel baths and trays have a thin metal body under the enamel. Exposed steel rusts quickly, so we treat and seal the metal before filling.

Common problems we fix in SN16

Heavy toiletries are the biggest single cause of chips, with dropped shower heads close behind. Taps and wastes cause problems too: water collects there, so chips nearby rust quickly.

If you can see any of these, send us a photo:

  • A hole punched through by something heavy
  • Damage done while the bathroom was being fitted
  • Scratches you can feel with a fingernail
  • Rust by the waste and overflow

Your questions about bath repair in SN16

Can you redo an old repair?

Yes. We take out the old repair and do it properly. Mention it when you send photos.

How quickly can you book me in?

That depends on our diary for your area. Send pictures with your postcode and we’ll reply with the earliest dates.

Can landlords book you?

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

Can a cracked acrylic bath be fixed?

Most of the time. The back of the crack is strengthened before the front is filled and refinished, so we need access under the bath.

Is it OK to have pets in the house?

Keep pets and children away from the work area on the day.

Can I add another job to the visit?

Yes, and it’s often cheaper. Just add the extra items to your photos and we’ll quote them together.
