Repairs by material
Acrylic
Acrylic is light and warm to the touch, but it relies on good support. Cracks are strengthened from behind before the front is finished.
Pressed steel
Pressed steel is thinner and lighter, with an enamel finish like cast iron. Chips rust quickly on steel, particularly by the plughole, so repair chips early.
Bath repair in Ashdon, done in place
A typical bath repair is a few hours’ work, and the bath is back in use the following day. There’s no need to book a plumber or tiler, because nothing is disconnected. Common call-outs are for rust spots around the plughole and damage beneath the taps, on acrylic, pressed steel enamel and cast iron enamel.
All of our repairs are guaranteed for twelve months. We return to put right any problem with the work.

When to call us in Ashdon
Heavy toiletries are the biggest single cause of chips, with dropped shower heads close behind. Fittings cause damage too: water sits around them, and any chip there soon rusts.
The most common problems we’re called about are:
- Chips on the rim or sides
- A hole punched through by something heavy
- Damage beneath the taps
- Scratches you can feel with a fingernail
Questions to ask before booking
- Whether the colour is mixed to match

Your questions about bath repair in Ashdon
What areas do you cover?
Everywhere in the UK, Ashdon included. Travel is included in the price.
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 charge for travel?
No. Our quotes include travel, with the same prices everywhere we work.
Can you repair a crack in an acrylic bath?
Generally, yes, if we can reach the underside to reinforce it. Take off the bath panel and check, or send us a photo.
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
Yes, but check with your landlord or agent first. Many landlords are happy for a repair to be arranged.
Can you fix rust around the plughole?
Yes, very often. We take it back to sound metal, seal it, fill it and match the colour.
Do you come to Ashdon?
Yes, we do. Repair technicians travel to Ashdon from across the region, and the price is the same as everywhere else.
Can you redo an old repair?
Regularly. The old material comes out, any rust is treated, then we repair it properly.
What bath repair costs
Prices start from £95. Every quote is fixed and free. What we take into account:
- How many items we do on one visit
- The colour and finish to match
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
A few things move the price: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Send photos and you will get a fixed figure.
Send photos for a quote
When you take your photos, these tips help us give you a firm price:
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- A picture taken from further back
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
The quickest way to a price is to send two or three pictures using our quote form or call us. We’ll say immediately if a repair is the right fix.
Landlords, agents and businesses in Ashdon
Rental properties take more wear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.
For anyone letting property in or around Ashdon, we will quote for several properties at once. Just send photos for each address and we’ll price them together.
Keeping it looking good
How the surface is treated afterwards matters:
- Stick to mild cleaners and a soft cloth
- Give the bath a quick rinse after use
- Have new chips seen to early
- Ensure an acrylic bath is firm underfoot
Don’t leave razors, cans or hair grips in the bath, as they can leave rust marks. A dripping tap should be fixed early, too.
Stop using the bath if a crack lets water through until it’s repaired. Leaks under a bath can damage floors and ceilings.
What we can’t put right
To be straight with you, some problems need a different fix:
- Water coming from the waste or taps rather than the bath
- Cracks in parts of an acrylic bath we can’t get to from below
- Rust that has eaten right through a steel bath
Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly before you book.
What we work on
- Roll-top & freestanding
- Whirlpool & spa baths
- Acrylic
- Pressed steel enamel
- Cast iron enamel

Should you replace it?

Repairing it leaves it where it is. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Our prices are the same across the UK, with no extra for Ashdon. What changes the price is the job itself: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.
