How we handle bath repair in Astley
You do not need a new bath because of a chip. Our repair technicians fill, shape and refinish the damage, with the colour mixed on site. If you’re dealing with cracks in an acrylic bath and an old repair that has yellowed or come loose, we can help, on whirlpool & spa baths, acrylic and cast iron enamel alike.
Whatever the size of the job, it’s backed by a one-year guarantee.

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, then guarantee it for a year.
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it does not stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.
Astley questions
What areas do you cover?
Everywhere in the UK, Astley included. Travel is included in the price.
Will I be able to see the repair?
On a glossy bath, you’ll struggle to find it. On worn enamel, it can look shinier than the rest.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Send pictures of everything you’d like done.
What happens once I’ve sent photos?
You’ll get a fixed quote back, typically with dates to choose from. You are under no obligation.
Is there any odour?
There can be some smell while we work. It clears as the materials cure.
Do you repair coloured baths?
Yes, we match coloured baths too. We tint the finish to your bath on site.
It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?
Most of the time. Let us know what was used before and we’ll plan for it.
Can you quote from pictures?
Nearly always. We only ask to see it in person if the pictures cannot show what we need.
What we can’t put right
A repair isn’t right for every job, including:
- Rust that has eaten right through a steel bath
- Acrylic cracks with no access behind them
- A whole bath that is dull or worn, where a full re-enamel is the better fix
Not sure? Send photos and we will give you a straight answer before booking.
Materials we repair

How the visit works
We work cleanly and quietly. We protect the area first, then the job itself takes a morning or an afternoon. At the end we talk you through the curing time and the aftercare.
- First, the area is cleaned and any loose enamel or rust is removed.
- Next we fill the damage and sand it smooth and level.
- The colour is mixed on the spot to match your bath.
- We build up the finish and polish it into the surrounding enamel.
- Once it has cured, typically by the next day, the bath is ready to use.
Preparing for the visit
- Have a window or extractor fan available
- Let the surface dry out before the visit
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
Getting a price
Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: photograph the damage, then the entire bath, include your postcode and send them to us. You will get a fixed quote, not an estimate.
Advice
Work for landlords and builders
For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover, so there’s no need to replace a damaged item at the last minute. We can visit several plots in one trip to keep costs down.
We are used to working with agents and managing companies. Send the address, photos and access details and we’ll arrange it.
Repair or replace in Astley?
People frequently assume a cracked or chipped bath has to come out. Generally it doesn’t: a repair keeps the bath in service for years, and costs far less than the disruption of a replacement. Our bath repair starts from £95. A few things move the price: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Send photos and you will get a fixed figure.
Why us?
- Rooms protected and left tidy
- Straight answers about what a repair can do
- Typically one visit, start to finish
- CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited

Different materials, different repairs
Pressed steel
Steel baths are lighter than cast iron, but have a similar enamel surface. Exposed steel rusts fast, especially around the waste, so early repairs matter.
Cast iron
Cast iron baths are so heavy that repairing in place makes obvious sense. Only the enamel surface wears or chips, and that’s the part we put right.
Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £95. A fixed quote means you know the cost before booking. We look at:
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- The colour and finish to match
- What kind of damage it is
- How much damage there is
Set against the cost of replacement, repairing generally costs far less, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.
Send pictures for a quote
Before you send photos, a few simple things make all the difference:
- What it’s made of, if you know
- One picture of the entire bath
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
No survey visit is needed: we price from pictures. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through.
Common problems we fix in Astley
A bath gets knocked about more than you’d think: everyday items get dropped into it all the time, and taps and wastes are tightened against the surface. Over time, chips and rust spots are almost inevitable.
Keep an eye out for any of the following:
- A failed DIY repair that’s discoloured or lifting
- Scuffs and scratches in the surface
- Chips on the rim or sides
- Rust spots around the plughole
What your quote should include
- How soon you can use it again
- How your room will be protected
- What aftercare is recommended
- How long the guarantee is and what it covers
