Bath repair in Aston without replacing anything

We repair just the damaged spot and colour-match it to the bath, which is far cheaper than replacing a fitted bath. You can usually use the bath the next day. Our technicians work on acrylic, whirlpool & spa baths and pressed steel enamel, and people most often call us about cracks and holes in acrylic baths and chips from dropped bottles, tiles or tools.

All our work comes with a one-year guarantee. Clean with mild, non-abrasive cleaners and avoid dropping heavy items on the repaired area. Deal with new chips early, before rust sets in.

Signs you need bath repair in Aston

Nearly all the chips we see starts with something being dropped: bottles, shower heads, tiles and tools. On enamelled baths, a chip that reaches the metal will start to rust once water gets in. Acrylic baths, on the other hand, tend to crack if they aren’t properly supported, usually near the taps or the waste.

It’s worth getting a quote if you see:

  • Rust spots where the enamel has gone
  • Cracks and holes in acrylic baths
  • Damage caused while the bathroom was being fitted
  • Scratches and burns

What your quote should include

  • How your room will be protected
  • How soon you can use it again
  • Aftercare advice
  • A fixed price, and whether VAT is included

How to compare quotes

What a repair can’t fix

In fairness, some problems need a different fix:

  • Cracks in acrylic we can’t reach from underneath
  • A bath that flexes because its feet or cradle have failed (that needs fixing first)
  • A whole bath that’s dull or worn, where a full re-enamel is the better fix

How the visit works

When we visit, we arrive at the time we’ve agreed, cover the area with dust sheets and masking, and set to work. The job usually takes a few hours. We clean up when we’re done and tell you when it’s ready to use.

  1. First, the area is cleaned and any loose enamel or rust is removed.
  2. Next we fill the damage and sand it smooth and level.
  3. The colour is mixed on the spot to match your bath.
  4. Finish coats go on, then the repair is polished to blend in.
  5. The repair is left to cure, and most baths can be used the next day.

Before we arrive

  • Make sure the room can be ventilated
  • Let us know about parking or access
  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area

Advice

Why repair rather than replace?

Replacing a fitted bath normally involves a plumber, lifting out the old bath, making good the tiles and panel and disposing of the old one. A repair fixes just the damaged area in one visit. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. What it costs depends on how much damage there is and what kind, what it’s made of and how many jobs we combine into one visit. You get a fixed quote from your pictures, so you know the cost before you book.
