How we handle bath repair in Ashley Green
A repair fixes just the damaged area and blends it into the rest of the bath, which costs far less than replacing a fitted bath and the tiles around it. You can typically use the bath the next day. Our technicians work on acrylic, whirlpool & spa baths and cast iron enamel, and people most often call us about an old repair that has yellowed or come loose and hairline or through cracks in acrylic.
You’re covered after we leave: each job carries a one-year guarantee, and we explain what it covers before you book.

Should you replace it?
People often assume a cracked or chipped bath has to come out. In most cases it doesn’t: a proper repair gives it years more use, without the cost and upheaval of replacing it. Prices start from £95. It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

Your questions about bath repair in Ashley Green
Can you repair a hole in a bath?
Normally. Photos of the hole and the underside help us check.
What do you need from me?
A close-up, a wider photo and your postcode. Then we will agree a date.
Do you hold any accreditations?
We are accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.
Are there extra charges for Ashley Green?
Travel is included in the price, with the same prices everywhere we work.
How quickly can you book me in?
It depends on the time of year and where you are. Send pictures with your postcode and we will reply with the earliest dates.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
In most cases, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. If it isn’t worth repairing, we’ll tell you.
What happens if you find more damage?
If we find something the photos didn’t show, we explain it first. You decide whether to go ahead.
What happens next?
You get a fixed price and available dates. If we need another angle, we will ask.
Prices and what affects them
Repairs from £95. A fixed quote means you know the cost before booking. We take into account:
- The colour and finish to match
- The material
- How many items we do on one visit
- The type of damage
Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. Damage, material and access decide it.
Send pictures for a quote
You can normally get a fixed price without us visiting. To help us price it:
- Any details about the material
- Details of any past repairs
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- A photo taken from further back
Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us photos through the quote form. With one close-up and one wider picture, we can give you a fixed price without visiting.
Can I fix it myself?
If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, make sure the area is clean and completely dry, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is usually the cheaper route.
Landlords, agents and businesses in Ashley Green
Rental properties take more wear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.
Hospitality businesses can’t afford rooms out of action for long, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We’ll fit around changeovers where we can.
Honest limits
We won’t take on work that won’t last, so these are the limits:
- Flexing caused by a failed cradle or loose feet
- Cracks in parts of an acrylic bath we cannot get to from below
- Water coming from the waste or taps rather than the bath
Not sure? Send pictures and we will give you a straight answer.
Surfaces we repair
- Cast iron enamel
- Pressed steel enamel
- Whirlpool & spa baths
- Acrylic
- Roll-top & freestanding
The process
A typical visit goes like this: we arrive on time, protect everything around the work area, do the job and clear up. Allow a few hours. Before leaving, we tell you how long to leave it and what to avoid for the first few days.
- First, the area is cleaned and any loose enamel or rust is removed.
- Next we fill the damage and sand it smooth and level.
- We tint the finish on the day to suit your bath’s shade of white or colour.
- 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 following day.
Preparing for the visit
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
- Tell us about parking, stairs or access
How to get a price
Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: photograph the damage, then the whole bath, include your postcode and send them over. What comes back is a fixed price, not a guess.
Related advice
Different materials, different repairs
Composite and resin
Composite baths are dense and solid. Chips and scratches are filled and matched, just like other baths.
Pressed steel
Steel baths are lighter than cast iron, but have a similar enamel surface. Chips rust quickly on steel, particularly by the plughole, so early repairs matter.

Aftercare tips
After the repair has cured, a few habits help it last:
- Do not leave a fresh chip for long
- Don’t scrub with anything abrasive
- If an acrylic bath flexes, have its feet adjusted
- Clean with warm water and a mild detergent
Clean with mild, non-abrasive cleaners and avoid dropping heavy items on the repaired area. Deal with new chips early, before rust can start.
A chip on a metal bath shouldn’t be left. Once water reaches the metal, rust begins, and a rust spot is a bigger repair than a clean chip.
