Bath repair at your home in Bradwell
It pays to repair bath damage while it’s small. Exposed metal on enamelled baths soon rusts, while cracks in acrylic grow each time the bath moves. A repair stops both. We work on pressed steel enamel, cast iron enamel and acrylic, and the jobs we see most are an old repair that has yellowed or come loose and snagging damage from a refit.
You’re covered for a year from the day of the repair. If anything is not right, ring us and we’ll come back.

How the visit works
Arrival times are agreed in advance. Once we’re there, the work takes a morning or an afternoon for most jobs. The room is left tidy and you’ll know when it can be used.
- We start by cleaning the damage and taking out loose enamel and rust.
- We fill the damage and sand it flush with the surrounding surface.
- We mix the colour on the day to match your bath’s exact shade.
- Finish coats go on, then the repair is polished to blend in.
- Once it has cured, typically by the day after, the bath is ready to use.
Before we arrive
- Point us to the nearest place to park
- Make sure the room can be ventilated
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
Ask for a price
A quote takes minutes to ask for: photograph the damage, then the entire bath, add your postcode and send them to us. What comes back is a fixed quote, not a guess.

Prices and what affects them
Repairs from £95. You’ll know the full cost before you book. We look at:
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- Whether we combine several jobs
- The material
The price reflects the work involved, not your postcode. The full price is agreed before you book, with no extras added later.
Getting a price from photos
Photographing the damage takes a minute, and it saves a visit. Please include:
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- A wider photo showing the whole bath
- Natural light rather than flash
- The material, if you know it
Email us photos of the damage and a wider shot of the whole item, with your OX18 postcode, and we will come back with a fixed quote.
Your questions about bath repair in Bradwell
Can pets and children be at home?
Please keep children and pets out of the room during the visit and until it has cured. The rest of the house is unaffected.
Can you repair a chip on a coloured bath?
Yes. The colour is mixed on site to suit your bath, including older coloured suites.
Something went through my bath. Can it be fixed?
Normally, yes, if we can reach behind it. The hole is backed, filled and refinished to match.
How invisible is a bath repair?
The goal is a repair that blends in. How well it disappears depends on the condition of the rest of the bath.
Is there any odour?
Expect a mild smell while we are working that clears as it cures.
Can you repair a crack in an acrylic bath?
Often, yes, if we can reach the underside to reinforce it. Check under the bath panel, or send us a picture.
Can you repair something that’s been repaired before?
Typically, yes. The old repair comes out first, so let us know about it.
What do you need from me?
Photos of the damage, a picture of the entire bath and your postcode. After that, we just agree a date.
What we cannot put right
A few problems are outside what a surface repair can do:
- Rust that has eaten right through a steel bath
- Leaking fittings, which need a plumber
- Acrylic cracks with no access behind them
If in doubt, send photos and we will say what we think.
Surfaces we repair
- Roll-top & freestanding
- Acrylic
- Whirlpool & spa baths
- Cast iron enamel
- Pressed steel enamel
Repair or replace: which is better?
A new bath costs more than the bath itself: taking out the old one, plumbing, tiling, a panel and redecorating. A repair is one job, done in one visit. Prices start from £95. Our prices are the same across the UK, with no extra for Bradwell. What changes the price is the job itself: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.
Why us?
- CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited
- No need to remove anything
- Colour mixed on the day to match
- Free fixed quotes from pictures
See our prices page and resurfacing vs replacement cost guide.
Can I fix it myself?
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is typically cheaper.
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it does not stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.
Aftercare tips
How the surface is treated afterwards matters. Here’s what we suggest:
- Cover the bath during DIY or decorating
- If an acrylic bath flexes, have its feet adjusted
- Get a dripping tap fixed promptly
- Store metal items away from the bath
Don’t leave razors, cans or hair grips in the bath, as they can leave rust marks. And fix dripping taps promptly.
Stop using the bath if a crack lets water through until it’s repaired. Water under the bath can damage the floor and the ceiling below.
Repairs by material
Cast iron
A cast iron bath is heavy enough that most people never want to move it. The enamel is the part that wears or chips, and that is what we repair.
Acrylic
Acrylic is light and warm to the touch, but it needs firm support underneath. Cracks are strengthened from behind before the front is finished.
