Bath Repair for Ashlett homes
Bath repair across Ashlett and nearby, normally in one visit.
- Repairs from £95
- Deep scratches in acrylic
- A hole punched through by something heavy
Keeping it looking good
A little care keeps the finish looking good. Our advice:
- Make sure an acrylic bath is firm underfoot
- Give the bath a quick rinse after use
- Fix dripping taps early to stop staining and limescale
- Keep metal cans and razors off the surface
In the first few days, avoid putting weight or bottles on the repair. After that, normal gentle cleaning is fine, avoiding abrasives.
Rust under enamel spreads surprisingly quickly. Left for months, a small chip can grow into a large rust patch, so it pays to deal with it early.

Ashlett questions
What do you need from me?
Use the quote form or ring 0345 017 0787.
Do you work in Ashlett?
Yes, we do. We send a technician to Ashlett for every job, with no extra charge for travel.
How long before I can use the bath?
Most baths can be used the day after. We will tell you the exact curing time when we finish.
Do you hold any accreditations?
We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.
What areas do you cover?
Everywhere in the UK, Ashlett included. Travel is included in the price.
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
Most of the time. Let us know what was used before and we will plan for it.
I tried a repair kit. Can you fix it?
Regularly. The old material comes out, any rust is treated, then we repair it properly.
Can landlords book you?
We do, regularly. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.
DIY kit or professional repair?
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is normally cheaper.
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair will not last.
Repair or replace: which is better?
Replacing a bath rarely stops at the bath: tiles along the rim normally crack when it comes out, the panel may not fit the new one, and the plumbing has to be disconnected and refitted. A repair skips all of it. Prices start from £95. There are no surprise 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.
Why us?
- We’ll tell you if it’s not worth repairing
- We leave the room as we found it
- No extra charge for your area
- Fixed prices from your pictures

What your bath is made of matters
Pressed steel
Pressed steel is thinner and lighter, with an enamel finish like cast iron. Exposed steel rusts fast, especially around the waste, so repair chips early.
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 what we repair.
When a repair is not the answer
We will not take on work that won’t last, so here’s what a repair cannot put right:
- A bath that moves underfoot, until its support is fixed
- Acrylic cracks with no access behind them
- Wear across the entire surface, which needs re-enamelling
Not sure? Send photos and we will give you a straight answer before you book.

What we do, step by step
We agree an arrival time beforehand. On site, it takes a morning or an afternoon. We leave the room clean.
- First, we check the damage against your pictures and agree the plan.
- Loose enamel, rust and dirt are removed so the repair can bond.
- We build up the filler in layers, shaping it to the bath.
- The colour is tinted by hand until it matches.
- The repair is polished to the same gloss as the bath and left to cure.
Getting ready for the visit
- Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
- Ensure the area is dry
- Clear the area around the damage

Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £95. We give every job a fixed price from photos. These are the things that affect it:
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- The type of damage
- The material
- How hard the colour is to match
Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is typically a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.
How to get a fixed price
Photographing the damage takes a minute, and it saves a visit. Please include:
- Any details about the material
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- A wider photo showing the whole bath
Getting a price is easy: snap the damage close up and then the whole item, send them over with your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price. Quotes are free and you are under no obligation.
For landlords and businesses
We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out photos. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.
Hospitality businesses need rooms back in use quickly, so we keep visits short and tidy. We can work around your bookings.
