Bath repair at your home in TA7

Whatever has happened to the bath, we aim for the same result: a repair that is smooth, sound and hard to spot. We prepare the area properly, fill and shape it, then match the colour and gloss so it’s level with the surrounding surface. Common call-outs are for damage done while the bathroom was being fitted and a chip where the taps sit, on acrylic, pressed steel enamel and cast iron enamel.

It’s a tidy, low-fuss visit. We agree the arrival time in advance, protect the area, then carry out the work, which usually takes a few hours. If we find something your pictures didn’t show, we’ll explain it before carrying on.

  1. Dust sheets and masking go down around the bath.
  2. We clean, key and degrease the damage, 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 tidy up and tell you when the bath can be used, normally the day after.

Prices in TA7

Prices start from £95. It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

How to get a price

You do not need a survey visit. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we will come back to you with a fixed figure.

Around Woolavington

We visit homes around Church of St Mary, Woolavington Village Primary School and 37 Club pub and the streets around them. For rail, the closest station is Bridgwater station, roughly 3.6 miles south-west. A little further out are Bridgwater Castle (3.9 miles south-west) and Bridgwater Community Hospital (2.5 miles south-west).

Common problems we fix in TA7

Many chips happen while the bathroom is being fitted. Tools, tiles and fittings get dropped into the bath, and the damage is not always spotted until later. Snagging repairs like these are a regular job for us.

Get in touch if you’ve noticed any of these:

  • Damage beneath the taps
  • Deep scratches in acrylic
  • Chips on the rim or sides
  • Impact holes in acrylic

Can I fix it myself?

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.

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, it’s worth having it done properly.

Landlord and trade work in TA7

We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Send the address, pictures and access details and we’ll handle the rest.

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.

Honest limits

We’d rather lose a job than do one that will not last, so these are the limits:

  • A bath that flexes because its feet or cradle have failed (that needs fixing first)
  • Cracks in parts of an acrylic bath we can’t get to from below
  • A steel bath rusted through

Prices and what affects them

Prices start from £95. A fixed quote means you know the cost before booking. We take into account:

  • Access to the area
  • The colour and finish to match
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • Whether we combine several jobs

Compared with replacing, repairing generally costs far less, because there’s no removal, plumbing or making good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

Getting a price from photos

Good photos mean an accurate price. Here’s what helps:

  • Natural light rather than flash
  • Details of any past repairs
  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale

No survey visit is needed: we price from photos. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through.

TA7 questions

Will the price change on the day?

We’ll show you and explain before doing anything extra. You won’t be charged for anything you haven’t agreed.

Which areas do you work in?

The whole UK, including all of Somerset. Send your postcode with your pictures and we will offer you dates.

Is there a call-out fee?

We do not add a call-out fee. The fixed price covers the visit and the work.

Is it OK to have pets in the house?

Please keep children and pets out of the room during the visit. Everywhere else in the home is fine.

Is a holed acrylic bath repairable?

Frequently, if there is access underneath. The hole is backed, filled and refinished to match.

I’m a tenant. Can you help?

Of course. Ask your landlord first, and we can send them the quote if that helps.

Is it messy?

Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we leave the room clean.
