How bath repair works in Oxfordshire

A damaged bath doesn’t have to mean a new bathroom. We fill the damage, shape it to the curve of the bath and refinish it, with the colour mixed on site. We are often asked to fix chips on the rim or sides and damage beneath the taps, across whirlpool & spa baths, pressed steel enamel and roll-top & freestanding.

Visits start with a quick look at the job together. Then the area is sheeted and masked and the work begins. Allow a few hours, and we’ll keep you posted as we go.

  1. We clean the area and remove any loose enamel or rust.
  2. The chip or crack is filled, then sanded level with the bath.
  3. We mix the colour on the day to match your bath’s exact shade.
  4. We build up the finish and polish it into the surrounding enamel.
  5. We leave it to cure; you can normally use the bath the following day.

How we price bath repair

Repairs from £95. Every quote is fixed and free. What we take into account:

  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • How many items we do on one visit
  • The type of damage
  • Unusual colours or finishes

What it costs depends on the type and amount of damage, the material and how many items we do on one visit. We give a fixed quote from your pictures, so there are no surprises on the day.

Getting a price from pictures

When you take your photos, these tips help us give you a firm price:

  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • Any details about the material
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale

There is no need for us to visit first. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we will come back to you with a fixed figure.

How the damage happens

Rust tends to begin where water collects, by the plughole, beneath dripping taps or in an unrepaired chip. Once water reaches the steel or iron, rust spreads under the enamel.

Common reasons people in Oxfordshire contact us include:

  • Impact holes in acrylic
  • Cracks in an acrylic bath
  • Rust by the waste and overflow
  • Chips caused by builders

What a repair cannot fix

To be straight with you, some problems need a different fix:

  • Leaks from the waste or overflow fittings (a plumber’s job)
  • Wear across the whole surface, which needs re-enamelling
  • A bath that moves underfoot, until its support is fixed

Should I try a DIY kit first?

The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.

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.

Why repair rather than replace?

Cast iron baths especially are worth keeping: getting one out, particularly from an upstairs bathroom, is a big job, and replacing like for like is not cheap. A repair keeps it in place.

What your quote should include

  • When it can be used again
  • Whether the colour is mixed to match
  • What the guarantee covers, and for how long
  • A fixed quote, and whether VAT is included

Common questions in Oxfordshire

Which areas do you work in?

All of Oxfordshire, and the rest of the UK. Travel is included in the price.

Do you hold any accreditations?

Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.

How quickly can you book me in?

That depends on our diary for your area. Send pictures with your postcode and we’ll reply with the earliest dates.

Will it make a mess?

Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we leave the room clean.

Is it safe with children and pets around?

We ask you to keep children and pets out of the room while we work and until it has cured. The rest of the house is unaffected.

Can you repair a hole in a bath?

Normally, yes, if we can reach behind it. The hole is backed, filled and refinished to match.
