About our bath repair in Ayot St Lawrence
A typical bath repair is a few hours’ work, and you can generally bathe again the next day. You won’t need a plumber or tiler, because the bath does not move. Typical jobs include damage beneath the taps and chips along the edge of the bath, in whirlpool & spa baths, cast iron enamel and pressed steel enamel.
The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If there’s a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it.

Do you need bath repair in Ayot St Lawrence?
Dropped items cause the majority of chips, and building work is a common culprit. Acrylic baths crack for a different reason: poor support underneath, so the bath flexes when it’s full.
Common reasons people in Ayot St Lawrence contact us include:
- Chips along the edge of the bath
- Chips under the taps
- Holes from dropped items
- Deep scratches in acrylic

Looking after it afterwards
Aftercare is simple:
- Check that an acrylic bath doesn’t move when you stand in it
- Have new chips seen to early
- Keep metal cans and razors off the surface
- Keep abrasive pads and gritty cleaners away from the bath
For the first few days, keep heavy bottles off the repaired spot. After that, normal gentle cleaning is fine without abrasive products.
A chip on a metal bath shouldn’t be left. Water gets to the metal and rust starts, and a rust spot is a bigger repair than a clean chip.
Ayot St Lawrence: your questions answered
Can you repair a failed DIY repair?
Yes. We remove the old filler and start again. Mention it when you send photos.
Do you repair coloured baths?
Yes. The colour is mixed on site to suit your bath, including pastel and older colours.
How long before I can use the bath?
Normally the next day. We confirm the time before we leave.
What happens once I’ve sent photos?
We check the damage, the material and your postcode, then reply with a quote with dates.
Will I be able to see the repair?
On a bath in good condition, a colour-matched repair is very hard to spot. On older, dull enamel the repair can look glossier than the area around it.
What do you need from me?

Repair or replace in Ayot St Lawrence?

What we quote from your pictures is what you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.

What your bath is made of matters
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.
Composite and resin
Stone resin and composite baths are heavy and solid, and often freestanding. Chips and scratches are filled and matched, in much the same way.

- Loose enamel, rust and dirt are removed so the repair can bond.
- The damage is filled in layers and shaped to the curve of the bath.
- We tint the finish by hand to match the bath.
- Finally, it’s polished to match the shine and left to cure.
How to prepare
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
- Let us know which floor the room is on
- Let the surface dry out before the visit
How to get a price
The quickest way to a price is to send a couple of photos through our quote form or call us. We’ll say right away whether it can be repaired.
Advice
What bath repair costs
Prices start from £95. You will know the full cost before you book. We take into account:
- What kind of damage it is
- The colour and finish to match
- Whether we combine several jobs
- Access to the area
Every job is a little different, so we price each one individually. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all play a part, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.
Send photos for a quote
Most quotes are done from photos alone. To help us price it:
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- Details of any past repairs
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- Any details about the material
Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us photos through the quote form. With one close-up and one wider picture, we can give you a fixed price without visiting.
What we can’t put right
Not everything can be repaired, and we will tell you before we start. Repairs won’t solve:
- A bath that flexes because its feet or cradle have failed (that needs fixing first)
- Leaking fittings, which need a plumber
- Cracks in acrylic we cannot reach from underneath
If in doubt, send photos and we will say what we think.
Materials we repair
- Whirlpool & spa baths
- Acrylic
- Roll-top & freestanding
- Cast iron enamel
- Pressed steel enamel
