Bath repair in Asgarby without replacing anything
Small damage on a bath is worth repairing early. On steel and cast iron, exposed metal starts to rust, and on acrylic, a crack keeps spreading while the bath flexes. A repair stops both. We are often asked to fix a hole punched through by something heavy and rust by the waste and overflow, on cast iron enamel, whirlpool & spa baths and pressed steel enamel.
Your repair is guaranteed for a year, as with every job we do.

Repair or replace: which is better?
People often assume a cracked or chipped bath has to come out. In most cases it does not: a proper repair gives it years more use, without the cost and upheaval of replacing it. Prices start from £95. What it costs depends on the type and amount of damage, the material and how many jobs we combine into one visit. You get a fixed price from your photos, so there are no surprises on the day.

When to call us in Asgarby
Damage during fitting is very common. Tradespeople drop tools and tiles into the bath, and the damage is not always spotted until later. We repair snagging damage like this regularly.
Most people contact us after spotting something like this:
- Chips on the rim or sides
- Scratches you can feel with a fingernail
- Chips caused by builders
- A cracked acrylic bath
What your quote should include
- What prep work is covered
- The length of the guarantee and what it covers
- What aftercare is recommended
- How your room will be protected
The process
Your technician turns up when we said we would and looks over the damage before anything else. Dust sheets and masking tape go down before any work starts. The work itself takes two to three hours for most chips, and we leave the room as we found it.
- We protect the bath and the floor around it.
- The damaged area is cleaned, keyed and degreased, and any rust is treated.
- We fill it, let it set, then sand it flush.
- We match both the colour and the shine.
- We clear up and give you the curing time, normally until the next day.
Preparing for the visit
- Let the surface dry out before the visit
- Let us know about parking or access
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
Ask for a price

Aftercare tips
A little care keeps the finish looking good. Our advice:
- Get a dripping tap fixed promptly
- If an acrylic bath flexes, have its feet adjusted
- Keep abrasive pads and gritty cleaners away from the bath
- Cover the bath during DIY or decorating
There’s nothing special to do after a repair, just sensible cleaning. Skip bleach and gritty creams and rinse after use.
A chip on a metal bath shouldn’t be left. Water gets to the metal and rust starts, turning a quick repair into a bigger one.
Landlords, agents and businesses in Asgarby
Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.
Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets need rooms back in use quickly, so we keep visits short and tidy. We can work around your bookings.

Can you redo someone else’s repair?
Generally, yes. Tell us what was done before and we’ll plan for it.
Can you repair a crack in an acrylic bath?
Normally, yes, as long as we can get to the back of the crack to support it. Check under the bath panel, or send us a photo.
Can you repair a chip on a coloured bath?
Yes, we match coloured baths too. The colour is tinted by hand on the day.
Do you come to Asgarby?
Yes, we do. Technicians travel to Asgarby from across the region, with no extra charge for travel.

What bath repair costs
Prices start from £95. You won’t pay by the hour. The price depends on:
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- How hard the colour is to match
- What the surface is made of
- Access to the area
We don’t add extras on the day. What we quote from your pictures is what you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.
Getting a price from photos
You can take the photos on your phone. Make sure they show:
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- The material, if you know it
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- A wider photo showing the whole bath
Send us pictures of the damage and one of the whole item, and tell us you are in Asgarby, and we will reply with a fixed price.
Can I fix it myself?
If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.
A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it will not stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.
