What bath repair costs
Prices start from £95. Each job gets its own fixed quote. These are the things that affect it:
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- Access to the area
- The colour and finish to match
- How much damage there is
There are no surprise extras on the day. The price we quote from your pictures is the price you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.
How to get a fixed price
Two or three clear pictures are generally enough. Try to include:
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- Any details about the material
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- Something in shot to show the size
No survey visit is needed: we price from pictures. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through, and you will get a fixed figure back.
Bath repair in Ashill, done in place
Chips, cracks, rust spots and small holes can be repaired with the bath left exactly where it is. There is no plumbing to disconnect, your tiles stay as they are, and the finish is matched to the rest of the bath. Our technicians work on acrylic, cast iron enamel and pressed steel enamel, and the jobs we see most are holes from dropped items and snagging damage from a refit.
Big or small, it’s backed by a one-year guarantee.

Repairing versus replacing in Ashill
Cast iron baths in particular are worth repairing: they’re very heavy to remove, especially upstairs, and a like-for-like replacement can be expensive. Repairing it leaves it where it is. Prices start from £95. 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 doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.
Why us?
- CHAS and Constructionline accredited
- Nothing taken out or refitted
- Every repair guaranteed for a year
- One visit for most repairs

Should I try a DIY kit first?
For a hairline mark somewhere you will never see, a kit may be enough. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, a professional repair is worth it.
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.
Looking after it afterwards
Looking after the surface is easy, and it makes a real difference:
- Don’t leave razors or cans standing in the bath
- Get a dripping tap fixed promptly
- Do not leave a fresh chip for long
- Clean with warm water and a mild detergent
A repaired bath needs no special treatment, just sensible cleaning. Skip bleach and gritty creams.
Until we visit, a strip of waterproof tape over the damage helps, to keep water out. Take it off before we arrive.
What your bath is made of matters
Acrylic
Acrylic feels warm and is light, but it relies on good support. Repairs to cracks are reinforced from the back.
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.

Common problems we fix in Ashill
Heavy toiletries are the biggest single cause of chips, with dropped shower heads close behind. Taps and wastes cause problems too: water sits around them, and any chip there soon rusts.
Most people contact us after spotting something like this:
- Rust by the waste and overflow
- A chipped rim or side
- Impact holes in acrylic
- Damage beneath the taps

How the visit works
Here’s how a visit generally runs: we arrive at the agreed slot, sheet and mask the area around the job, carry out the work and tidy away. Plan for a few hours, depending on the damage. Before we go, we’ll explain how long to leave it and what to avoid for the first few days.
- We start by cleaning the damage and taking out loose enamel and rust.
- We fill the damage and sand it flush with the surrounding surface.
- We mix the colour on the day to match your bath’s exact shade.
- We apply the finish coats and polish the repair so it blends in.
- The repair is left to cure, and most baths can be used the next day.
Getting ready for the visit
- Tell us about parking, stairs or access
- Clear the area around the damage

Your questions about bath repair in Ashill
How long does the repair take to cure?
Typically the day after. We will tell you the exact curing time when we finish.
Will there be a smell?
Expect a mild smell while we are working that clears as it cures.
Is repairing better than replacing?
In most cases, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. If it is not worth repairing, we’ll tell you.
How much does bath repair cost in Ashill?
Prices start from £95. Every job gets a fixed price from your pictures. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo and your postcode.
Is it messy?
Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we leave the room clean.
Can tenants book a repair?
Yes, but check with your landlord or agent first. Landlords are often glad to have it sorted before the end of a tenancy.
Is a cracked acrylic bath repairable?
In most cases. The back of the crack is strengthened before the front is filled and refinished, so access behind the panel is important.
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
In most cases. We remove the old repair before doing a new one.
