Common problems we fix in Aspley Heath

Most bath damage comes from something dropped: bottles, shower heads, tiles and tools. On steel and cast iron baths, a chip that reaches the metal will start to rust.

It’s worth getting a quote if you see:

  • Snagging damage from a refit
  • A hole punched through by something heavy
  • A chip where the taps sit
  • Chips along the edge of the bath

What your quote should include

  • Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price
  • A fixed price, and whether VAT is included
  • How long it needs to cure
  • Who will actually do the work

Our hiring checklist

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Pressed steel

Under the enamel of a steel bath is thin metal. Once a chip exposes it, rust follows quickly, so the metal is treated and sealed before the repair.

Cast iron

Cast iron baths are thick and very strong, with a fused enamel surface. A chip down to the iron can rust, but the bath itself lasts for generations, so it’s always worth repairing.

When we would advise against a repair

Before booking, it’s worth knowing the limits too:

  • A bath worn all over, where resurfacing makes more sense
  • Cracks in parts of an acrylic bath we can’t get to from below
  • A bath that flexes because its feet or cradle have failed (that needs fixing first)

Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly.

Materials we work on in Aspley Heath

  • Cast iron enamel

Can I fix it myself?

We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.

What bath repair costs

Repairs from £95. Prices are worked out job by job, from your pictures. The main factors are:

  • Doing more than one item at once
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • The material

No two jobs are quite the same, 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.

Quotes from your pictures

We price nearly every job from pictures. This is what to send:

  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings

To get a price, send two or three photos using our quote form or ring us. We’ll tell you honestly whether it can be repaired.

Looking after it afterwards

Much of the damage we repair could have been avoided. A few tips:

  • Rinse the bath after use, especially in hard water areas
  • Fix dripping taps early to stop staining and limescale
  • Avoid scourers, wire wool and gritty cream cleaners
  • Ensure an acrylic bath is firm underfoot

In the first few days, avoid putting weight or bottles on the repair. After that, clean it as you would the rest of the bath without abrasive products.

Avoid standing in a cracked acrylic bath until it’s fixed. Each time it flexes, the crack grows, and it can start to leak underneath.

Aspley Heath questions

What happens once I’ve sent pictures?

We review the photos and send a fixed quote and the next dates we have.

Can pets and children be at home?

We ask you to keep children and pets out of the room while we work. The rest of the house is unaffected.

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 a bath repair durable?

It should, as long as the bath is firm and the area was prepared well. It carries our one-year guarantee.

When can I have a bath again?

Generally within a day, though it depends on what we have done.

Do you cover Aspley Heath?

Yes. We work across the UK and come to Aspley Heath and the rest of Warwickshire. Send pictures and we will quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

Is a holed acrylic bath repairable?

In most cases. Photos of the hole and the underside help us check.

Will there be a smell?

There can be some smell while we work. It clears as the materials cure.

Repair or replace in Aspley Heath?

Swapping a damaged bath for a new one normally involves a plumber, lifting out the old bath, making good the tiles and panel and disposing of the old one. Repairing it fixes just the damaged area in a single visit. Prices start from £95. A few things move the price: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Send pictures and you’ll get a fixed figure.

What we do, step by step

On the day itself, there’s little for you to do. Let us in and show us the room, and we will take it from there. Most visits take a morning or an afternoon, tidy-up included.

  1. We protect the bath and the floor around it.
  2. We clean, key and degrease the damage, and any rust is treated.
  3. Filler goes in and is sanded flush once it has set.
  4. We match both the colour and the shine.
  5. We clear up and give you the curing time, normally until the next day.

Before we arrive

  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
  • Clear the area around the damage

How to get a price

Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: take one close-up and one wider shot of the bath, add your postcode and send them to us. What comes back is a fixed price, not a guess.
