Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £95. Prices are worked out job by job, from your pictures. What matters most is:
- The size and number of damaged areas
- How many items we do on one visit
- How easy the damage is to reach
- The material
The price reflects the work involved, not where you live. You’ll see the full price before you book.
How to get a fixed price
A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. It helps if you send:
- Where you are, by postcode
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- Any details about the material
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
Pricing is simple: take a close-up of the damage and a photo from further back, send them to us with your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote. There is no charge for the quote and no obligation.

We stand behind the work with a one-year guarantee.

Looking after it afterwards
After the repair has cured, a few habits help it last:
- Do not scrub with anything abrasive
- Give the bath a quick rinse after use
- Protect the bath with a towel when doing jobs nearby
- Keep metal cans and razors off the surface
Use gentle, non-abrasive cleaners and avoid dropping heavy items on the repaired area. Deal with new chips early, before rust can start.
Tape over a fresh chip or crack until it’s repaired, to keep water out. Take it off before we arrive.
Repair or replace: which is better?
A repair makes sense whenever the damage is localised. It’s a fraction of the cost of a new bath and fitting, it takes one visit, and nothing else in the room changes. Prices start from £95. We charge the same wherever you are, with no extra for Aspley. The job itself decides the price: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

Different materials, different repairs
Composite and resin
Stone resin and composite baths are heavy and solid. Chips and scratches are filled and matched, just like other baths.
Cast iron
Cast iron baths are so heavy that repairing in place makes obvious sense. The enamel is the part that wears or chips, and that is what we repair.
Common problems we fix in Aspley
Damage during fitting is very common. Tradespeople drop tools and tiles into the bath, and the damage isn’t always spotted until later. Snagging repairs like these are a regular job for us.
You may need us if you’ve spotted:
- An old repair that has yellowed or come loose
- Damage beneath the taps
- Rust by the waste and overflow
- Chips on the rim or sides
What your quote should include
- Who will actually do the work
- What prep work is covered
- If travel is included in the price
- Whether the colour is mixed to match
Should I try a DIY kit first?
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
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.
