How we handle bath repair in Ashley Heath
Repairing baths is what we do most. A chip by the taps, a crack in the base and a rust spot by the plughole are all fixed without removing the bath, typically in a single visit. Our technicians work on whirlpool & spa baths, acrylic and roll-top & freestanding, and common reasons people contact us are scuffs and scratches in the surface and damage beneath the taps.
The work is covered for a year after we finish. If anything is not right, ring us and we will come back.

Landlord and trade work in Ashley Heath
Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover, so there is no need to replace a damaged item at the last minute. We can visit several plots in one trip to keep costs down.
Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which is easier on the people living there.
What a repair can’t fix
It helps to know what we cannot do too:
- Water coming from the waste or taps rather than the bath
- A bath worn all over, where resurfacing makes more sense
- Flexing caused by a failed cradle or loose feet
If in doubt, send pictures and we will say what we think.
Surfaces we repair
- Whirlpool & spa baths
- Roll-top & freestanding
- Cast iron enamel
- Pressed steel enamel
- Acrylic
Repairs by material
Pressed steel
Under the enamel of a steel bath is thin metal. Once a chip exposes it, rust follows quickly, so we treat and seal the metal before filling.
Acrylic
Acrylic baths are moulded sheet reinforced underneath. There is no rust, but cracks, holes and scratches happen, and a crack only stays repaired if it’s supported underneath.
Repairing versus replacing in Ashley Heath
Replacing a bath rarely stops at the bath: the tiles sitting on the rim tend to break, the panel may not fit the new one, and a plumber has to disconnect and reconnect everything. Repairing the damage avoids all of that. Our bath repair starts from £95. Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

Ashley Heath: your questions answered
Can you price it without visiting?
In nearly every case. If photos do not show enough, we’ll ask for another angle.
Do the materials smell?
Expect a mild smell while we’re working, which fades afterwards.
Can landlords book you?
We do, regularly. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.
Can rust on a bath be repaired?
Yes, it’s one of the most common repairs we do. The rust is cut back to clean metal and sealed before we fill and finish it.
What does bath repair cost?
Repairs from £95. We give a fixed quote based on pictures of the damage. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo with your BH24 postcode.
What areas do you cover?
Everywhere in the UK, Ashley Heath included. Travel is included in the price.
Will it make a mess?
Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and tidy up before we leave.
How quickly can you book me in?
It depends on the time of year and where you are. Send photos with your postcode and we will reply with the earliest dates.
Do you need bath repair in Ashley Heath?
Rust tends to begin where water collects, by the plughole, beneath dripping taps or in an unrepaired chip. Once water reaches the steel or iron, rust spreads under the enamel.
Most people contact us when they notice something like this:
- Chips on the rim or sides
- Snagging damage from a refit
- A hole punched through by something heavy
- Deep scratches in acrylic
Questions to ask before you book
- What aftercare is recommended
- How your room will be protected
- What happens if they find more damage
- How the colour is matched
Can I fix it myself?
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, and the work is guaranteed.
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.
How to look after the repair
Good habits make a big difference to how long a repair lasts. Here’s what we suggest:
- Clean with warm water and a mild detergent
- Give the bath a quick rinse after use
- Check that an acrylic bath does not move when you stand in it
- Do not leave razors or cans standing in the bath
Use gentle, non-abrasive cleaners and avoid dropping heavy items on the repaired area. Get any new chip seen to quickly, before rust sets in.
A chip on a metal bath shouldn’t be left. Water gets to the metal and rust starts, and a rust spot is a bigger repair than a clean chip.

How it works
We agree an arrival time beforehand, so you are not left guessing. On site, it takes a morning or an afternoon. The room is left tidy and you’ll know when it can be used.
- We start by looking at the damage and confirming the plan with you.
- Loose enamel, rust and dirt are removed so the repair can bond.
- We build up the filler in layers, shaping it to the bath.
- We tint the finish by hand to match the bath.
- Finally, it’s polished to match the shine and left to cure.
Getting ready for the visit
- Open a window if you can
- Ensure the area is dry
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
