Bath repair in Aubourn, done in place
A typical bath repair is a few hours’ work, and you can normally bathe again the day after. There is no need to book a plumber or tiler, because the bath does not move. Whether it’s holes from dropped items and rusty patches near the plughole, we can normally put it right, on acrylic, cast iron enamel and pressed steel enamel alike.
You’re covered after we leave: our one-year guarantee applies to every job, and we will explain exactly what it covers when we quote.

Aftercare tips
Simple care helps the repair last. Our advice:
- Use a soft cloth and washing-up liquid for everyday cleaning
- Make sure an acrylic bath is firm underfoot
- Don’t leave a fresh chip for long
- Put a towel in the bath if you’re working above it
A repaired bath needs no special treatment, beyond gentle cleaning. Avoid bleach-based and gritty cleaners and rinse after use.
Avoid standing in a cracked acrylic bath until it’s fixed. Each time it flexes, the crack grows, and water can get through to the floor below.
Honest limits
A repair isn’t right for every job, including:
- A steel bath rusted through
- Leaking fittings, which need a plumber
- Wear across the entire surface, which needs re-enamelling

For landlords and businesses
Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover, so there’s no need to replace a damaged item at the last minute. Several plots can be done in one visit.
Rental properties take more wear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.

Repair or replace: which is better?
Replacing a fitted bath generally means a plumber, lifting out the old bath, re-tiling and a new panel and disposing of the old one. A repair deals only with the damage in one visit. Prices start from £95. The price reflects the work involved, not where you live. You’ll see the full price before booking, with nothing added on the day.

Different materials, different repairs
Pressed steel
Under the enamel of a steel bath is thin metal. Exposed steel rusts quickly, so the metal is treated and sealed before the repair.
Cast iron
A cast iron bath is heavy enough that most people never want to move it. Only the enamel surface wears or chips, and that’s what we repair.
Common problems we fix in Aubourn
Nearly all the chips we see start with something being dropped: a shampoo bottle, a shower head, a tile or a tool during a refit. On steel and cast iron baths, a chip that reaches the metal will start to rust.
If you can see any of these, send us a picture:
- Damage beneath the taps
- Deep scratches in acrylic
- Chips along the edge of the bath
- A failed DIY repair that’s discoloured or lifting
What your quote should include
- Who will actually do the work
- Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT
- How changes to the job are handled
- How your room will be protected
What bath repair costs
Prices start from £95. We price every job individually, from your photos. What matters most is:
- The type of damage
- Unusual colours or finishes
- How easy the damage is to reach
- The size and number of damaged areas
A few things move the price: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Send pictures and you will get a fixed figure.
How to get a fixed price
Phone photos are fine, there is no need for anything special. Just ensure we can see:
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- Where you are, by postcode
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- A picture taken from further back
The quickest way to a price is to send a couple of pictures through our quote form or ring us. We’ll say right away whether it can be repaired.
Aubourn questions
How long before I can use the bath?
Most baths can be used the next day. We confirm the time before we leave.
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
Generally, yes. The old repair comes out first, so mention it when you send photos.
Is it messy?
No. The work area is masked and covered, and we take our waste away with us.
Do you hold any accreditations?
Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.
Is there any odour?
There may be a mild smell during the work, which fades afterwards.
Do you charge for travel?
No. Our quotes include travel, and we charge the same wherever you are.
Can you repair several things at once?
Yes. Doing several items on one visit normally costs less than separate visits. Send pictures of everything you’d like done.
Can you repair a crack in an acrylic bath?
Most of the time. We reinforce the crack from behind, then fill and refinish the front, so we need access under the bath.
How the visit works
A typical visit goes like this: we arrive at the agreed slot, protect everything around the work area, do the job and clear up. Allow a few hours, depending on the damage from start to finish. Before we go, we’ll explain how long to leave it and what to avoid for the first few days.
- We clean the area and remove any loose enamel or rust.
- 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.
- We leave it to cure; you can generally use the bath the following day.
Before we arrive
- Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
- Clear the area around the damage
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
Ask for a price
There is no need for us to visit first. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we’ll come back to you with a fixed figure.
