How we handle bath repair in Ashcott

We’ve repaired just about every kind of bath damage: dropped-bottle chips, plughole rust, acrylic cracks and impact holes. Each is repaired in place. Our technicians work on acrylic, pressed steel enamel and cast iron enamel, and the jobs we see most are impact holes in acrylic and damage done while the bathroom was being fitted.

We stand behind the work with a one-year guarantee, so you are not left on your own once we’ve gone.

What affects the price in Ashcott

Prices start from £95. Every quote is fixed and free. What we take into account:

  • The material
  • How much damage there is
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • Unusual colours or finishes

Instead of hourly rates, we price the entire job up front. Damage, material and access decide it, and doing several items at once reduces it.

How to get a fixed quote

Good photos mean an accurate price. Here’s what we find most useful:

  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • A wider photo showing the entire bath
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection

For a price in Ashcott, the easiest route is photos: one close up, one from further back, plus your postcode. You’ll get a fixed quote with dates to choose from.

Different materials, different repairs

Composite and resin

Stone resin and composite baths are heavy and solid. Chips and scratches can be filled and colour-matched, in much the same way.

Cast iron

A cast iron bath is heavy enough that most people never want to move it. Only the enamel surface wears or chips, and that’s the part we put right.

Your questions about bath repair in Ashcott

How do I book?

Some photos, your postcode and how to reach you. On the day, we only need access to the room.

Can tenants book a repair?

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

Can rust on a bath be repaired?

Yes, it’s one of the most common repairs we do. We take it back to sound metal, seal it, fill it and match the colour.

When can I have a bath again?

Most baths can be used the following day. We confirm the time before we leave.

Is a bath repair permanent?

Done properly, a repair lasts for years, and it’s guaranteed for a year. Gentle cleaning helps it last.

Is a repair better than a new one?

Generally, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. We will be honest if it’s not worth it.

Do you hold any accreditations?

Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.

Will there be a smell?

Some materials have a smell while they’re applied, which is why we ventilate. It fades as everything cures.

Landlord and trade work in Ashcott

Letting agents frequently send us pictures 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.

We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Send the address, photos and access details and we’ll arrange it.

DIY kit or professional repair?

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is generally cheaper.

A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.

Signs you need bath repair in Ashcott

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.

The most common problems we are called about are:

  • Damage beneath the taps
  • Deep scratches in acrylic
  • Chips on the rim or sides
  • Rust spots around the plughole

Questions to ask before booking

  • When it can be used again
  • Aftercare advice
  • How your room will be protected
  • The length of the guarantee and what it covers

10 questions to ask before you book

How it works

Here’s how a visit usually runs: we arrive on time, protect everything around the work area, carry out the work and clear up. Allow a few hours from start to finish. Before leaving, we tell you when it can be used and what to avoid for the first few days.

  1. We start by cleaning the damage and taking out loose enamel and rust.
  2. Next we fill the damage and sand it smooth and level.
  3. We tint the finish on the day to suit your bath’s shade of white or colour.
  4. Finish coats go on, then the repair is polished to blend in.
  5. Once it has cured, typically by the following day, the bath is ready to use.

Preparing for the visit

  • Ensure the room can be ventilated
  • Keep a parking space free if you can
  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings

How to get a price

Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us pictures through the quote form. With one close-up and one wider picture, we can price the job the same day in most cases.

Should you replace it?

Many people think a damaged bath means a new one. In most cases it does not: a repair keeps the bath in service for years, without the cost and upheaval of replacing it. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. We do not add extras on the day. The price we quote from your pictures is the price you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.

When a repair is not the answer

We won’t take on work that won’t last, so here’s what a repair can’t put right:

  • Metal that has corroded all the way through
  • Water coming from the waste or taps rather than the bath
  • Cracks in acrylic we cannot reach from underneath

Send us photos and we will tell you honestly before you book.
