Bath repair in Cold Ashton without replacing anything
Most of our bath repairs take a few hours, and you can generally bathe again the following day. You won’t need a plumber or tiler, because the bath doesn’t move. We are often asked to fix holes from dropped items and damage beneath the taps, on whirlpool & spa baths, roll-top & freestanding and acrylic.
All of our repairs are guaranteed for twelve months, and the guarantee is the same wherever you live. If something goes wrong with the work, we come back.

What we do, step by step
From the moment we arrive, the aim is to do the job without disturbing the rest of your home. We mask off everything nearby, the work takes two to three hours for most chips, depending on what we find, and we finish by cleaning up and talking you through the result.
- We start by cleaning the damage and taking out loose enamel and rust.
- We fill the damage and sand it flush with the surrounding surface.
- We mix the colour on the day to match your bath’s exact shade.
- We apply the finish coats and polish the repair so it blends in.
- The repair is left to cure, and most baths can be used the following day.
Preparing for the visit
- Keep a parking space free if you can
- Make sure the room can be ventilated

Advice
Looking after it afterwards
A little care keeps the finish looking good. Our advice:
- Fix dripping taps early to stop staining and limescale
- Avoid scourers, wire wool and gritty cream cleaners
- Clean with warm water and a mild detergent
- Give the bath a quick rinse after use
Care for the repair the same way as the bath: a soft cloth and washing-up liquid is all it needs. Keep scouring pads and gritty cleaners away from it.
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.
Common questions in Cold Ashton
What happens after I send photos?
We come back with a fixed quote. There’s no obligation to book.
How much does bath repair cost in Cold Ashton?
Prices start from £95. Every job gets a fixed price based on pictures of the damage. Send a close-up and a picture of the entire item and your postcode.
Is a bath repair permanent?
It should, as long as the bath is firm and the area was prepared well. It carries our one-year guarantee.
Is a holed acrylic bath repairable?
Usually, yes, if we can reach behind it. We back the hole, fill it and refinish the surface.
Can you do more than one item on the same visit?
Yes, and it’s frequently cheaper. Just add the extra items to your pictures and we’ll quote them together.
Can a cracked acrylic bath be fixed?
Usually, yes, as long as we can get to the back of the crack to support it. Check under the bath panel, or send us a picture.
Do you do work for letting agents?
We do, regularly. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.
Can rust on a bath be repaired?
Yes, it’s one of the most common repairs we do. We take it back to sound metal, seal it, fill it and match the colour.
Work for landlords and builders
We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Send the address, pictures and access details and we will handle the rest.
Letting agents frequently send us photos straight from the inventory. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.
Signs you need bath repair in Cold Ashton
Rust usually starts where water sits, around the waste, under the taps or in an old chip. Once water reaches the steel or iron, rust spreads under the enamel.
Get in touch if you’ve noticed any of these:
- A chip where the taps sit
- Scuffs and scratches in the surface
- Snagging damage from a refit
- A kit repair that didn’t last
Questions to ask before booking
- Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price
- Aftercare advice
- How soon you can use it again
- What happens if the damage is worse than the photos show
When we would advise against a repair
Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair can’t fix:
- A whole bath that is dull or worn, where a full re-enamel is the better fix
- Cracks in acrylic we cannot reach from underneath
- Leaking fittings, which need a plumber
If in doubt, send pictures and we will say what we think before booking.

DIY repairs versus a professional job
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully and work on a clean, dry surface, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.
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.
Prices and what affects them
Repairs from £95. Prices are worked out job by job, from your pictures. What matters most is:
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- How much damage there is
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
A repair normally costs much less than people expect, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Send pictures and we will give you the exact figure.
Send photos for a quote
Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what to send:
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- Any details about the material
Call 0345 017 0787 or use the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the entire bath, we can give you a fixed price the same day in most cases.
Repair or replace: which is better?
If the rest of the bath is in good condition, a repair is almost always the better choice. It costs less, takes less time and causes far less upheaval, and the bathroom stays as it is. Where the entire surface is tired, we may suggest re-enamelling instead. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. The price reflects the work involved, not where you live. You will see the full price before booking.
