Bath repair across DE6: what to expect
We repair just the damaged spot and colour-match it to the bath, which costs far less than replacing a fitted bath. You can usually use the bath the following day. Common call-outs are for snagging damage from a refit and deep scratches in acrylic, in roll-top & freestanding, pressed steel enamel and cast iron enamel.
Expect a friendly, tidy visit. We agree the arrival time in advance, cover and mask the work area, then carry out the work, which normally takes two to three hours for most chips. If we find something your pictures didn’t show, we will explain it before carrying on.
- We start by looking at the damage and confirming the plan with you.
- Any rust and loose material comes out, and the area is degreased.
- We build up the filler in layers, shaping it to the bath.
- The colour is tinted by hand until it matches.
- The repair is polished to the same gloss as the bath and left to cure.
What it costs in DE6
Our bath repair starts from £95. We charge the same wherever you are, with no extra for DE6. What changes the price is the job itself: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.
What you get with us
- A year’s guarantee on all work
- Rooms protected and left tidy
- Straight answers about what a repair can do
- Colour-matched on site
Getting a price
A quote takes minutes to ask for: take one close-up and one wider shot of the bath, include your postcode and send them to us. You will get a fixed price, not an estimate.
Landmarks near Ashbourne
Typical jobs here are in homes near Station Hotel, Ashbourne Hilltop Primary and Nursery School and The United Reformed Church and the streets around them. Further afield, we also cover the area around Ashbourne Rural District (less than half a mile north-west) and St Oswalds Hospital (0.5 miles west). The countryside around Ashbourne includes Thorpe Cloud and Thorswood.
How we price bath repair
Prices start from £95. There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price depends on:
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- How many areas need work
- The colour and finish to match
- What the surface is made of
It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Send photos and you will get a fixed figure.
Send photos for a quote
The better the pictures, the more accurate the price. Here’s what we find most useful:
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- The material, if you know it
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- A photo taken from further back
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 the damage happens
Heavy toiletries are the biggest single cause of chips, with dropped shower heads close behind. Fittings cause damage too: water collects there, so chips nearby rust quickly.
Clients usually contact us about:
- Cracks in an acrylic bath
- Impact holes in acrylic
- Scratches you can feel with a fingernail
- Rust by the waste and overflow
Materials and what they mean for the repair
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, which makes it well worth repairing.
Acrylic
Acrylic is light and warm to the touch, but it relies on good support. Repairs to cracks are reinforced from the back.
Honest limits
We would rather lose a job than do one that won’t last, so these are the limits:
- Metal that has corroded all the way through
- Wear across the whole surface, which needs re-enamelling
- Flexing caused by a failed cradle or loose feet
DIY repairs versus a professional job
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is typically cheaper.
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.
