Bath repair in Chawley without replacing anything
A typical bath repair is a few hours’ work, and you can normally bathe again the day after. There’s no need to book a plumber or tiler, because nothing is disconnected. Typical jobs include damage beneath the taps and rusty patches near the plughole, in cast iron enamel, roll-top & freestanding and acrylic.
Every job is backed for twelve months. We return to put right any problem with the work.

What a repair cannot fix
Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:
- A steel bath rusted through
- Flexing caused by a failed cradle or loose feet
- A whole bath that is dull or worn, where a full re-enamel is the better fix

Prices and what affects them
Repairs from £95. You will not pay by the hour. The price is based on:
- What the surface is made of
- What kind of damage it is
- Unusual colours or finishes
- How many items we do on one visit
Rather than charging by the hour, we price the whole job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access.
Quotes from your pictures
The better the photos, the more accurate the price. Here’s what we find most useful:
- A picture taken from further back
- Something in shot to show the size
- Any details about the material
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: photograph the damage, then the entire bath, include your postcode and send them to us. You will get a fixed price, not an estimate.
Landlords, agents and businesses in Chawley
Rental properties take more wear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.
Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, fixing chips and scratches before handover. We’re CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.
The process
Arrival times are agreed in advance. On site, it takes a few hours, depending on the damage for most jobs. The room is left tidy and you will know when it can be used.
- First, we check the damage against your pictures and agree the plan.
- Loose enamel, rust and dirt are removed so the repair can bond.
- We build up the filler in layers, shaping it to the bath.
- We tint the finish by hand to match the bath.
- Finally, it’s polished to match the shine and left to cure.
How to prepare
- Open a window if you can
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
- Let us know which floor the room is on
Ask for a price
Getting a price is easy: snap the damage close up and then the whole item, send them to us with your postcode, and you’ll get a fixed price back. There is no charge for the quote and no obligation.

How to care for the repair
Simple care helps the repair last. We recommend:
- A dripping tap stains enamel, so fix it early
- Give the bath a quick rinse after use
- Use a soft cloth and washing-up liquid for everyday cleaning
- Put a towel in the bath if you are working above it
A repaired bath needs no special treatment, beyond gentle cleaning. Avoid bleach-based and gritty cleaners and rinse after use.
A small chip is a quick job. Left alone, they stain and can rust, so early repair saves time and money.
Your questions about bath repair in Chawley
Is a bath repair durable?
Done properly, a repair lasts for years, and it’s guaranteed for a year. Gentle cleaning helps.
Can you quote from pictures?
Yes, almost always. Clear photos let us give you a fixed quote without visiting.
What do you need from me?
Send photos through the quote form or call 0345 017 0787, and we will take it from there.
Is a cracked acrylic bath repairable?
Most of the time. We reinforce the crack from behind, then fill and refinish the front, so access behind the panel is important.
Can you repair a hole in a bath?
In most cases. Send us a picture of the hole and one from under the bath if you can.
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
Yes, but check with your landlord or agent first. Landlords are frequently glad to have it sorted.
Do you cover the whole of Oxfordshire?
We cover the entire UK, including Chawley and the rest of Oxfordshire. Just include your postcode and we will offer you dates.
Can you do more than one item on the same visit?
Yes. Doing several items on one visit normally costs less than separate visits. Include pictures of each item.
When to call us in Chawley
Dropped items cause the majority of chips, and a lot happen during bathroom refits. Cracks in acrylic have a different cause: poor support underneath, so the bath flexes when it’s full.
Typical reasons for a call-out include:
- A hole punched through by something heavy
- A chipped rim or side
- Scuffs and scratches in the surface
- Hairline or through cracks in acrylic
Questions to ask before you book
- Whether the colour is mixed to match
- How long the guarantee is and what it covers
- Who turns up on the day
- How to look after the finish
Why repair rather than replace?
Think about the hidden costs of a new bath: taking out the old one, plumbing, tiling, a panel and redecorating. A repair is one job, done in one visit. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

Should I try a DIY kit first?
If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely and work on a clean, dry surface, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is generally the cheaper route.
