How to care for the repair

Good habits make a big difference to how long a repair lasts. Here’s what we suggest:

  • Have new chips seen to early
  • Make sure an acrylic bath is firm underfoot
  • Get a dripping tap fixed promptly
  • Cover the bath during DIY or decorating

For the first few days, keep heavy bottles off the repaired spot. After that, clean it as you would the rest of the bath, avoiding abrasives.

Until we visit, a strip of waterproof tape over the damage helps, so water cannot get in. Take it off before we arrive.

We see every kind of bath damage: dropped-bottle chips, plughole rust, acrylic cracks and impact holes. Each is repaired in place with a one-year guarantee. Our repair technicians work on cast iron enamel, whirlpool & spa baths and pressed steel enamel, and people most often call us about an old repair that has yellowed or come loose and damage beneath the taps.

Why repair rather than replace?

When the bath is otherwise sound, repairing beats replacing. It costs less, takes less time and causes far less upheaval, and the bathroom stays as it is. If the whole surface is worn, re-enamelling may make more sense, and we’ll tell you. Our bath repair starts from £95. The price reflects the work involved, not where you live. The full price is agreed before you book, with nothing added on the day.

Why Newbold Astbury clients choose us

  • We’ll tell you if it’s not worth repairing
  • Typically one visit, start to finish
  • No need to remove anything
  • Accredited with CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor

Read our pricing and guide to resurfacing and replacement costs.

What a repair cannot fix

Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:

  • Wear across the entire surface, which needs re-enamelling
  • Cracks in parts of an acrylic bath we cannot get to from below
  • A bath that flexes because its feet or cradle have failed (that needs fixing first)

If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think.

Materials we repair

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

What affects the price in Newbold Astbury

Repairs from £95. There is no area surcharge for Newbold Astbury. What changes the price is:

  • The material and finish
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • Access to the area
  • How hard the colour is to match

Our prices are the same across the UK, with no extra for Newbold Astbury. What changes the price is the job itself: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

Send pictures for a quote

Most quotes are done from pictures alone. To help us price it:

  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • Natural light rather than flash
  • What it’s made of, if you know

No survey visit is needed: we price from pictures. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through.

How it works

Here’s how a visit generally runs: we arrive at the agreed slot, sheet and mask the area around the job, carry out the work and tidy away. Allow a few hours. Before we go, we will explain when it can be used and what to avoid for the first few days.

  1. We start by looking at the damage and confirming the plan with you.
  2. Any rust and loose material comes out, and the area is degreased.
  3. We build up the filler in layers, shaping it to the bath.
  4. The colour is tinted by hand until it matches.
  5. Finally, it’s polished to match the shine and left to cure.

Preparing for the visit

  • Let us know about parking or access
  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat

Signs you need bath repair in Newbold Astbury

Glass and heavy bottles cause more chips than anything else. Fittings cause damage too: water sits around them, and any chip there soon rusts.

Get in touch if you’ve noticed any of these:

  • A hole punched through by something heavy
  • Damage done while the bathroom was being fitted
  • Rust by the waste and overflow
  • Damage beneath the taps

Can I fix it myself?

We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.

A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, it’s worth having it done properly.

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Composite and resin

Stone resin and composite baths are heavy and solid. Chips and scratches can be filled and colour-matched, in much the same way.

Acrylic

Acrylic is light and warm to the touch, but it relies on good support. Repairs to cracks are reinforced from the back.

Common questions in Newbold Astbury

Do I need to be at home?

Do the materials smell?

There can be some smell while we work. It clears as the materials cure.
