How we handle bath repair in Aston Rowant

Whatever the damage, the aim is the same: a smooth, solid repair that blends in. We prepare the area properly, fill and shape it, then match the colour and gloss so it’s level with the surrounding surface. If you are dealing with snagging damage from a refit and scratches you can feel with a fingernail, we can normally put it right, whatever the material.

You’re covered for a year from the day of the repair. If anything is not right, ring us and we will sort it.

Aston Rowant questions

Will there be a smell?

There can be some smell while we work. It fades as everything cures.

Do you cover Aston Rowant?

We do. We send a technician to Aston Rowant for every job, and the price is the same as everywhere else.

Are you accredited?

Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.

What happens if you find more damage?

Your quote covers the damage in the photos. If there’s more, we will tell you before starting.

Is a cracked acrylic bath repairable?

Frequently, yes, if we can reach the underside to reinforce it. Check under the bath panel, or send us a photo.

Will the repair last?

Yes, if it’s prepared properly and the bath is sound. It’s covered by our one-year guarantee.

Can you price it without visiting?

Yes, almost always. Clear pictures let us give you a fixed price without visiting.

Do I have to be there?

Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. You don’t need to watch us work.

What bath repair costs

Repairs from £95. Every quote is fixed and free. What we take into account:

  • How hard the colour is to match
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • Access to the area
  • How many areas need work

Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Send photos and we will give you the exact figure.

Getting a price from photos

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

  • Any details about the material
  • Where you are, by postcode
  • Natural light rather than flash
  • One picture of the whole bath

There is no need for us to visit first. Nearly every job can be priced from photos: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price.

Different materials, different repairs

Composite and resin

Composite baths are dense and solid. Chips and scratches are filled and matched, just like other baths.

Acrylic

An acrylic bath is a moulded sheet strengthened from below. They do not rust, but they can crack, scratch or be holed, and cracks need support from behind to stay fixed.

Aftercare tips

How the surface is treated afterwards matters. Here’s what we suggest:

  • Rinse it down after each bath
  • Clean with warm water and a mild detergent
  • Keep metal cans and razors off the surface
  • Fix dripping taps early to stop staining and limescale

There is nothing special to do after a repair, beyond gentle cleaning. Skip bleach and gritty creams.

A small chip is a quick job. Leave them and they collect dirt, stain and, on metal baths, rust, so it’s worth getting them done early.

What we can’t put right

Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair can’t fix:

  • 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 photos and we will say what we think.

What we work on

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

Can I fix it myself?

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.

The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, then guarantee it for a year.

Work for landlords and builders

We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Send the address, photos and access details and we’ll handle the rest.

Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which is easier on the people living there.

What we do, step by step

When we visit, we arrive at the time we have agreed, cover the area with dust sheets and masking, and set to work. Expect it to take a morning or an afternoon. We tidy up before we leave and tell you when it’s ready to use.

  1. First, we check the damage against your photos and agree the plan.
  2. Loose enamel, rust and dirt are removed so the repair can bond.
  3. We build up the filler in layers, shaping it to the bath.
  4. We tint the finish by hand to match the bath.
  5. The repair is polished to the same gloss as the bath and left to cure.

Before we arrive

  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
  • Let us know about parking or access
  • Have a window or extractor fan available

Should you replace it?

Think about the hidden costs of a new bath: taking out the old one, plumbing, tiling, a panel and redecorating. A repair is one job, done in one visit. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Compared with replacing, a repair is usually a fraction of the price, because there’s no removal, plumbing or making good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.
