What we do, step by step
Your technician turns up at the time we agreed with you, introduces themselves and checks the damage against your pictures first. The floor and nearby surfaces are covered before any work starts. Most visits take a few hours, and the room is left clean and tidy.
- Dust sheets and masking go down around the bath.
- We clean, key and degrease the damage, and any rust is treated.
- Filler goes in and is sanded flush once it has set.
- Colour and gloss are matched to the surrounding surface.
- We clear up and give you the curing time, normally until the day after.
Getting ready for the visit
- Keep a parking space free if you can
- Have a window or extractor fan available
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat

Why repair rather than replace?
Swapping a damaged bath for a new one normally involves a plumber, removing the old bath, making good the tiles and panel and disposing of the old one. A repair deals only with the damage in one visit. Our bath repair starts from £95. A few things move the price: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Send photos and you will get a fixed figure.

Should I try a DIY kit first?
For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. 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.
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair won’t last.

Questions from Alvescot
It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?
Typically, yes. We remove the old repair before doing a new one, so mention it when you send pictures.
Can you repair a failed DIY repair?
Yes. We remove the old filler and start again. Tell us about it when you send pictures.
Can you fix rust around the plughole?
Yes. We take out the rust and any loose enamel, fill the area, then colour-match the finish.
Is there a call-out fee?
We don’t add a call-out fee. Your fixed quote includes everything.

Does someone need to be in?
Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. After that, you can carry on with your day.
Which areas do you work in?
The whole UK, including all of Oxfordshire. Send your postcode with your pictures and we’ll confirm dates.

What affects the price in Alvescot
Repairs from £95. There is no area surcharge for Alvescot. The price reflects:
- Access to the area
- How many items we do on one visit
- The colour and finish to match
- The material and finish
Every job is a little different, so each one is priced on its own. The size and type of damage, the material and access all play a part, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.
Send photos for a quote
Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what to send:
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- 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 whole bath, we can give you a fixed quote without visiting.
What we’re called out for in Alvescot
Rust tends to begin where water collects, around the waste, under the taps or in an old chip. Once water reaches the steel or iron, rust spreads under the enamel.
You may need us if you’ve spotted:
- Holes from dropped items
- A chip where the taps sit
- Rusty patches near the plughole
- Chips caused by builders
Before booking anyone
- How soon you can use it again
- Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price
- Whether the colour is mixed to match
- How your room will be protected
What a repair can’t fix
Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair won’t do:
- Rust that has eaten right through a steel bath
- Leaks from the waste or overflow fittings (a plumber’s job)
- A bath worn all over, where resurfacing makes more sense
If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think.
Materials we work on in Alvescot
- Whirlpool & spa baths
- Pressed steel enamel
- Roll-top & freestanding
- Acrylic
- Cast iron enamel
How to care for the repair
Aftercare is simple, and it makes a real difference:
- Get a dripping tap fixed promptly
- Don’t leave a fresh chip for long
- Put a towel in the bath if you’re working above it
- Keep abrasive pads and gritty cleaners away from the bath
A repaired bath needs no special treatment. Avoid bleach-based and gritty cleaners and rinse after use.
Rust spreads under enamel faster than most people expect. Left for months, a small chip can grow into a large rust patch, so early repair keeps the cost down.
