Bath chip & crack repair in Combe, Oxfordshire
We travel to Combe for chip and crack repairs to enamel, acrylic and cast iron baths. Everything is done in place, and the work is guaranteed.
- Repairs from £95
- A chipped rim or side
- A failed DIY repair that’s discoloured or lifting
What your bath is made of matters
Pressed steel
Under the enamel of a steel bath is thin metal. Exposed steel rusts quickly, so the metal is treated and sealed before the repair.
Composite and resin
Composite baths are dense and solid, and often freestanding. Chips and scratches are filled and matched, in much the same way.
Bath repair at your home in Combe
A repair fixes just the damaged area and blends it into the rest of the bath, which is far cheaper than replacing a fitted bath and the tiles around it. You can normally use the bath the day after. If you’re dealing with a cracked acrylic bath and rust by the waste and overflow, we can generally put it right.
A one-year guarantee comes as standard, so you’re not left on your own once we have gone.

Why repair rather than replace?
A new bath brings a chain of other jobs: the tiles sitting on the rim tend to break, the panel may not fit the new one, and a plumber has to disconnect and reconnect everything. A repair skips all of it. Our bath repair starts from £95. Instead of hourly rates, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and doing several items at once reduces it.

Combe questions
Are you accredited?
Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.
Can you fix rust around the plughole?

Do you come to Combe?
Yes. We work across the UK and travel to Combe and the rest of Oxfordshire. Send pictures and we will quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
Will the price change on the day?
We stop, show you and agree any change before carrying on. You will not be charged for anything you haven’t agreed.
Are there extra charges for Combe?
There is no separate call-out charge. The fixed price covers the visit and the work.
Do I have to be there?
Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time we agree with you.
Is a bath repair durable?
It should, as long as the bath is firm and the area was prepared well. It’s covered by our one-year guarantee.
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
Yes, but check with your landlord or agent first. Many landlords are happy for a repair to be arranged.
Honest limits
To be straight with you, some problems need a different fix:

The process
We begin by going over the job with you, so there are no surprises. After that, protection goes down around the work area and we start. Allow a few hours, depending on the damage, and we’ll tell you if anything changes.
- First, the area is cleaned and any loose enamel or rust is removed.
- Next we fill the damage and sand it smooth and level.
- We tint the finish on the day to suit your bath’s shade of white or colour.
- We build up the finish and polish it into the surrounding enamel.
- Once it has cured, normally by the day after, the bath is ready to use.
Preparing for the visit
- Make sure the room can be ventilated
- Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
- Keep a parking space free if you can
Ask for a price
Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: take one close-up and one wider shot of the bath, include your postcode and send them over. You’ll get a fixed quote, not an estimate.
Advice
For landlords and businesses
We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Combe as well as householders. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it generally costs far less than a refit.
Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.
Should I try a DIY kit first?
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is typically cheaper.
Prices and what affects them
Repairs from £95. There is no area surcharge for Combe. The price reflects:
- Doing more than one item at once
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- How many areas need work
What it costs depends on how much damage there is and what kind, what it’s made of and how many items we do on one visit. We give a fixed price from your pictures, so you know the cost before you book.
Getting a price from photos
You can take the photos on your phone, there is no need for anything special. Just make sure we can see:
- Any details about the material
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- Something in shot to show the size
Email us a photo of the damage and one of the entire item, and tell us you are in Combe, and we will come back with a fixed quote.
Common problems we fix in Combe
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.
Send us a picture if you notice any of these:
- A cracked acrylic bath
- Damage beneath the taps
- Rust by the waste and overflow
- Scuffs and scratches in the surface
What your quote should include
- What aftercare is recommended
- How long it needs to cure
- Who will actually do the work
- Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price
