The better the photos, the more accurate the price. Here’s what helps:
- A wider photo showing the entire bath
- What it’s made of, if you know

- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
The quickest way to a price is to send two or three pictures through our quote form or call us. We’ll say immediately if a repair is the right fix.
Bath repair in Boars Hill without replacing anything
It pays to repair bath damage while it’s small. On steel and cast iron, exposed metal starts to rust, and on acrylic, a crack keeps spreading while the bath flexes. Repairing it stops the damage getting worse. We work on acrylic, whirlpool & spa baths and cast iron enamel, and the jobs we see most are chips along the edge of the bath and rust spots around the plughole.
We guarantee the work for a year. If something isn’t right in that time, we come back and put it right.

Common questions in Boars Hill
Do you cover Boars Hill?
Yes, we do. We send a technician to Boars Hill for every job, with no extra charge for travel.
Can you do more than one item on the same visit?
Yes, and it’s often cheaper. Just add the extra items to your pictures and you’ll get one combined price.
Can you repair a hole in a bath?
Usually. Send us a photo of the hole and one from under the bath if you can.
How soon can you come?
We’ll give you dates with your quote. If it’s urgent, say so and we’ll do what we can.
Which areas do you work in?
We cover the whole UK, including Boars Hill and the rest of Oxfordshire. Just include your postcode and we’ll offer you dates.
Can you repair a chip on a coloured bath?
Yes, we match coloured baths too. The colour is tinted by hand on the day.
Can you repair a crack in an acrylic bath?
Most of the time. We reinforce the crack from behind, then fill and refinish the front, so access behind the panel is important.
Can I get a quote without a visit?
Typically, yes. Clear pictures let us give you a fixed price without visiting.
Aftercare tips
After the repair has cured, a few habits help it last:
- Keep metal cans and razors off the surface
- Give the bath a quick rinse after use
- Make sure an acrylic bath is firm underfoot
- Have new chips seen to early
There’s nothing special to do after a repair. Skip bleach and gritty creams and rinse after use.
Stop using the bath if a crack lets water through until it’s repaired. Leaks under a bath can damage floors and ceilings.

When to call us in Boars Hill
A bath gets knocked about more than you’d think: everyday items get dropped into it all the time, and taps and wastes are tightened against the surface. Over time, chips and rust spots are almost inevitable.
If you can see any of these, send us a photo:
- A chipped rim or side
- Damage beneath the taps
- Damage done while the bathroom was being fitted
- A kit repair that didn’t last
Questions to ask before you book
- When it can be used again
- How the colour is matched
- How the room is protected while they work
- Whether there are any call-out or travel charges
What we do, step by step
We begin by going over the job with you. Then the area is sheeted and masked and we start. Allow two to three hours for most chips, and we’ll tell you if anything changes.
- First, the area is cleaned and any loose enamel or rust is removed.
- The chip or crack is filled, then sanded level with the bath.
- The colour is mixed on the spot to match your bath.
- We apply the finish coats and polish the repair so it blends in.
- We leave it to cure; you can typically use the bath the next day.
Getting ready for the visit
- Tell us about parking, stairs or access
- Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
- Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area

Related advice
Can I fix it myself?
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it won’t stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.
Should you replace it?
Replacing a fitted bath normally involves a plumber, removing the old bath, re-tiling and a new panel and disposing of the old one. A repair fixes just the damaged area in one visit. Prices start from £95. 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.

When we would advise against a repair
We’d rather lose a job than do one that will not last, so here’s what a repair can’t put right:
- Rust that has eaten right through a steel bath
- Water coming from the waste or taps rather than the bath
- Flexing caused by a failed cradle or loose feet
Send us pictures and we will tell you honestly.
