What affects the price in Boughton Aluph
Repairs from £95. There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price is based on:
- How much damage there is
- How many items we do on one visit
- What the surface is made of
- Unusual colours or finishes
Compared with replacing, repairing typically costs far less, because there’s no removal, plumbing or making good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.
How to get a fixed quote
The better the pictures, the more accurate the price. Here’s what helps:
- A wider photo showing the entire bath
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- Something in shot to show the size
Call 0345 017 0787 or use the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the whole bath, we can give you a fixed price without visiting.
How to care for the repair
Aftercare is simple:
- A dripping tap stains enamel, so fix it early
- Don’t leave a fresh chip for long
- Stick to mild cleaners and a soft cloth
- Keep metal cans and razors off the surface
A repaired bath needs no special treatment, beyond gentle cleaning. Avoid bleach-based and gritty cleaners and rinse after use.
A small chip is a quick job. Left alone, they stain and can rust, so it’s worth getting them done early.
What we do, step by step
A typical visit goes like this: we arrive at the agreed slot, sheet and mask the area around the job, carry out the work and tidy away. Allow two to three hours for most chips. Before we go, we’ll explain when it can be used and how to care for it.
- We protect the bath and the floor around it.
- The damaged area is cleaned, keyed and degreased, and any rust is treated.
- Filler goes in and is sanded flush once it has set.
- We match both the colour and the shine.
- We clear up and give you the curing time, normally until the day after.
Before we arrive
- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
- Let us know which floor the room is on
- Make sure the room can be ventilated
How to get a price
The quickest way to a price is to send two or three pictures through our quote form or call us. We’ll say straight away whether it can be repaired.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Boughton Aluph
Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover. We can visit several plots in one trip to keep costs down.
Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, fixing chips and scratches before handover. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.
DIY repairs versus a professional job
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, and the work is guaranteed.
Should you replace it?
Many people think a damaged bath means a new one. Normally it does not: a repair keeps the bath in service for years, without the cost and upheaval of replacing it. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. A few things move the price: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.
What you get with us
- Most jobs done in one visit

What your bath is made of matters
Cast iron
Cast iron baths are thick and very strong, with a fused enamel surface. A chip down to the iron can rust, but the body of the bath lasts a very long time, so it’s always worth repairing.
Acrylic
Acrylic is light and warm to the touch, but it relies on good support. Cracks are strengthened from behind before the front is finished.
