Repair or replace: which is better?
Cast iron baths in particular are worth repairing: they’re very heavy to remove, especially upstairs, and replacing like for like isn’t cheap. A repair keeps it in place. Prices start from £95. The price reflects the work involved, not where you live. The full price is agreed before you book, with no extras added later.

Bath repair in Ansley, done in place
A repair fixes just the damaged area and blends it into the rest of the bath, which is far cheaper than replacing a fitted bath and the tiles around it. You can usually use the bath the following day. Common call-outs are for snagging damage from a refit and holes from dropped items, across cast iron enamel, acrylic and pressed steel enamel.
Whatever the size of the job, you get the same one-year guarantee in Ansley and across Warwickshire.

FAQs for Ansley
Can you match an avocado or pink bath?
Yes, coloured baths are no problem. We tint the finish to your bath on site.
How soon can you come?
It depends on the time of year and where you are. Send pictures with your postcode and we will reply with the earliest dates.
Do I have to be there?
Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time we agree with you.
What information do you need?
Some pictures, your postcode and how to reach you. On the day, access to the room.
Is it safe with children and pets around?
We ask you to keep children and pets out of the room while we work. Everywhere else in the home is fine.
Is there any odour?
A little, depending on the job. Open windows and an extractor fan help.
How invisible is a bath repair?
We aim for a repair you cannot easily find. The rest of the bath’s condition makes a difference, and we will tell you what to expect.
Is repairing better than replacing?
Generally, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. If it isn’t worth repairing, we’ll tell you.
DIY repairs versus a professional job
A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it won’t stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.
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.
Aftercare tips
Nothing complicated is needed:
- Cover the bath during DIY or decorating
- Give the bath a quick rinse after use
- A dripping tap stains enamel, so fix it early
- Keep metal cans and razors off the surface
A repaired bath needs no special treatment, beyond gentle cleaning. Avoid bleach-based and gritty cleaners.
A small chip is a quick job. Left alone, they stain and can rust, so it’s worth getting them done early.
Landlord and trade work in Ansley
If you manage property in Ansley, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Just send photos for each address and we will price them together.
We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out pictures. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.
How we price bath repair
Repairs from £95. Each job gets its own fixed quote. This is what makes a difference:
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- Access to the area
- Doing more than one item at once
- The material
Every job is a little different, so each one is priced on its own. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all make a difference, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.
Getting a price from pictures
A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. Try to include:
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- A wider photo showing the entire bath
There’s no need for us to visit first. Nearly every job can be priced from pictures: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we will come back to you with a fixed figure.
How it works
The work is clean and fairly quiet. We protect the area first, then the work takes two to three hours for most chips. At the end we talk you through how soon it can be used and how to look after it.
- Dust sheets and masking go down around the bath.
- We clean, key and degrease the damage, and any rust is treated.
- We fill it, let it set, then sand it flush.
- Colour and gloss are matched to the surrounding surface.
- We tidy up and tell you when the bath can be used, usually the following day.
Before we arrive
- Let us know if it has been repaired before
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
- Make sure the area is dry
How to get a price
The quickest way to a price is to send a couple of pictures through our quote form or ring us. We will tell you honestly if a repair is the right fix.
Advice
When a repair isn’t the answer
Not everything can be repaired, and we will tell you before we start. Repairs won’t solve:
- Rust that has eaten right through a steel bath
- Flexing caused by a failed cradle or loose feet
- Wear across the entire surface, which needs re-enamelling
Not sure? Send pictures and we’ll give you a straight answer.

Materials and what they mean for the repair
Composite and resin
Composite baths are dense and solid, and often freestanding. Chips and scratches are filled and matched, in much the same way.
Acrylic
Acrylic baths are moulded sheet reinforced underneath. There’s no rust, but cracks, holes and scratches happen, and cracks need support from behind to stay fixed.
