Bath repair near Aston Crews

Bath repair at your home in Aston Crews

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. If you are dealing with an old repair that has yellowed or come loose and chips under the taps, we can typically put it right, on acrylic, pressed steel enamel and whirlpool & spa baths alike.

We stand behind the work with a one-year guarantee, so you’re covered after the visit.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

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 the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.

For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, a professional repair is worth it.

Repairing versus replacing in Aston Crews

When the bath is otherwise sound, repairing beats replacing. It’s quicker, cheaper and far less disruptive, and you keep the bath you chose. Where the entire surface is tired, we may suggest re-enamelling instead. Our bath repair starts from £95. It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Send photos and you’ll get a fixed figure.

Why book with us

  • Colour-matched on site
  • Dust sheets down, tidy finish
  • We come to you, anywhere in the UK
  • One visit for most repairs

Work for landlords and builders

Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Aston Crews use us as well as householders. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it costs much less than replacing.

Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets need rooms back in use quickly, so we keep visits short and tidy. We can work around your bookings.

What bath repair costs

Prices start from £95. We give every job a fixed price from pictures. This is what makes a difference:

  • What the surface is made of
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • How many items we do on one visit

Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

Getting a price from pictures

When you take your pictures, a few simple things make all the difference:

  • A wider photo showing the whole bath
  • Any details about the material
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit

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 quote, not a guess.

Your questions about bath repair in Aston Crews

I rent my home. Can I book you?

Yes. Check with your landlord; we can send the quote to them too.

Is it OK to have pets in the house?

On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children, so the repair is not disturbed while it cures.

Can you repair a failed DIY repair?

Yes. We remove the old filler and start again. Mention it when you send photos.

Do you come to Aston Crews?

Yes. We cover the whole UK and travel to Aston Crews and the rest of Gloucestershire. Send photos and we’ll quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?

Yes, regularly. It can add a little time, which we include in the quote.

Can rust on a bath be repaired?

Yes. We remove the rust and loose enamel, fill the area, then colour-match the finish.

Can a cracked acrylic bath be fixed?

In most cases. The back of the crack is strengthened before the front is filled and refinished, so access behind the panel is important.

Is there any odour?

A little, depending on the job. Open windows and an extractor fan help, and it soon fades.

When to call us in Aston Crews

Rust tends to begin where water collects, by the plughole, beneath dripping taps or in an unrepaired chip. Water on bare metal causes rust that creeps under the surrounding enamel.

Customers usually contact us about:

  • A chipped rim or side
  • Holes from dropped items
  • Cracks in an acrylic bath
  • Rust spots around the plughole

How to compare quotes

How the visit works

We begin by going over the job with you. Then the area is sheeted and masked and the work begins. Allow a morning or an afternoon, and we will tell you if anything changes.

  1. We clean the area and remove any loose enamel or rust.
  2. The chip or crack is filled, then sanded level with the bath.
  3. The colour is mixed on the spot to match your bath.
  4. Finish coats go on, then the repair is polished to blend in.
  5. We leave it to cure; you can usually use the bath the following day.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area

Ask for a price

The quickest way to a price is to send a couple of pictures through our quote form or ring us. We’ll tell you honestly if a repair is the right fix.

Related advice

Repairs by material

Composite and resin

Stone resin and composite baths are heavy and solid, and frequently freestanding. Chips and scratches can be filled and colour-matched, just like other baths.

Pressed steel

Steel baths and trays have a thin metal body under the enamel. Exposed steel rusts quickly, so the metal is treated and sealed before the repair.

Honest limits

We’ll always be straight with you, so here’s what a repair can’t fix:

  • A bath that flexes because its feet or cradle have failed (that needs fixing first)
  • Water coming from the waste or taps rather than the bath
  • Metal that has corroded all the way through

If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think.

Surfaces we repair

  • Acrylic
  • Whirlpool & spa baths
  • Pressed steel enamel
  • Cast iron enamel
  • Roll-top & freestanding
