Bath repair in Bampton without replacing anything
Repairing baths is what we do most. Chips on the rim, rust around the waste and cracks in acrylic are all fixed without removing the bath, normally in one visit. Our technicians work on roll-top & freestanding, cast iron enamel and whirlpool & spa baths, and people most often call us about a kit repair that didn’t last and chips on the rim or sides.
The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If something isn’t right in that time, we come back and put it right.

How we price bath repair
Prices start from £95. We give every job a fixed price from pictures. These are the things that affect it:
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- What the surface is made of
- The size and number of damaged areas
- The colour and finish to match
There are no surprise extras on the day. What we quote from your photos is what you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.
Quotes from your pictures
Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what to send:
- Any details about the material
- Natural light rather than flash
- Details of any past repairs
- One picture of the entire bath
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 reply with a fixed price.
What else we do in Bampton
Landlord and trade work in Bampton
Rental properties take more wear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.
We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which matters when someone is living in the home.
DIY kit or professional repair?
For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.
A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it does not stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.
Do you need bath repair in Bampton?
Most bath damage comes from something dropped: bottles, shower heads, tiles and tools. On enamelled baths, any chip down to the metal lets water in, and rust follows.
Signs it’s time to call us include:
- Holes from dropped items
- A chipped rim or side
- A chip where the taps sit
- Rust by the waste and overflow

How the visit works
It’s a tidy, low-fuss visit. We confirm the time with you beforehand, cover and mask the work area, then carry out the work, which generally takes a morning or an afternoon. If anything looks different from your pictures, we’ll talk to you before going ahead.
- We start by cleaning the damage and taking out loose enamel and rust.
- The chip or crack is filled, then sanded level with the bath.
- We tint the finish on the day to suit your bath’s shade of white or colour.
- We apply the finish coats and polish the repair so it blends in.
- The repair is left to cure, and most baths can be used the day after.
Before we arrive
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
Getting a price
A quote takes minutes to ask for: photograph the damage, then the whole bath, include your postcode and send them to us. You’ll get a fixed quote, not an estimate.
Advice
What a repair can’t fix
Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:
- Wear across the entire surface, which needs re-enamelling
- Cracks in acrylic we cannot reach from underneath
- A bath that moves underfoot, until its support is fixed
Not sure? Send photos and we will give you a straight answer.
Materials we repair

Common questions in Bampton
Do I have to be there?
Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. After that, you can carry on with your day.
Is a holed acrylic bath repairable?
Usually, yes, if we can reach behind it. The hole is backed, filled and refinished to match.
What happens once I’ve sent pictures?
You will get a fixed quote back, plus dates. You’re under no obligation.
What do you need from me?
Some pictures, your postcode and how to reach you. On the day, we only need access to the room.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
Normally, if the item is otherwise sound. A repair avoids removal and making good. We’ll tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.
Can a cracked acrylic bath be fixed?
Usually, yes, as long as we can get to the back of the crack to support it. Take off the bath panel and check, or send us a picture.
How do I get a price for bath repair in Bampton?
Repairs from £95. We give a fixed quote from your photos. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo with your EX16 postcode.
Are there extra charges for Bampton?
There is no separate call-out charge. The fixed price covers the visit and the work.
Keeping it looking good
After the repair has cured, a few habits help it last:
- Protect the bath with a towel when doing jobs nearby
- Get a dripping tap fixed promptly
- Keep metal cans and razors off the surface
- If an acrylic bath flexes, have its feet adjusted
Use gentle, non-abrasive cleaners and try not to drop heavy bottles on the repair. Get any new chip seen to quickly, before rust sets in.
Until we visit, a strip of waterproof tape over the damage helps, to keep water out. Take it off before we arrive.
Repair or replace: which is better?
If the rest of the bath is in good condition, a repair is almost always the better choice. It’s quicker, cheaper and far less disruptive, and you keep the bath you chose. If the whole surface is worn, re-enamelling may make more sense, and we will tell you. Our bath repair starts from £95. Our prices are the same across the UK, so there is no premium for Bampton. The job itself decides the price: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.
