- The chip or crack is filled, then sanded level with the bath.
- We mix the colour on the day to match your bath’s exact shade.
- We build up the finish and polish it into the surrounding enamel.
- Once it has cured, usually by the next day, the bath is ready to use.
Preparing for the visit

Bath repair in Cutteslowe, done in place
Small damage on a bath is worth repairing early. On steel and cast iron, exposed metal starts to rust, and on acrylic, a crack keeps spreading while the bath flexes. A repair stops both. We regularly repair roll-top & freestanding, whirlpool & spa baths and acrylic, and people most often call us about a cracked acrylic bath and rust by the waste and overflow.
Peace of mind is built in: each job carries a one-year guarantee, and we will explain exactly what it covers when we quote.

Cutteslowe: your questions answered
Is a repair better than a new one?
In most cases, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. We will be honest if it’s not worth it.
Which areas do you work in?
We cover the entire UK, including Cutteslowe and the rest of Oxfordshire. Send your postcode with your pictures and we will confirm dates.
Can you repair something that is been repaired before?
Normally, yes. The old repair comes out first, so let us know about it.
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
We can work for tenants, landlords or agents. Just make sure the landlord agrees.
Something went through my bath. Can it be fixed?
Typically. Send us a picture of the hole and one from under the bath if you can.
Do I need to be at home?
Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. You do not need to watch us work.
Do you charge for travel?
There is no separate call-out charge. Your fixed quote includes everything.
Is my repair covered?
Every repair comes with our one-year guarantee. We’ll explain what it covers when we quote.
DIY kit or professional repair?
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is usually the cheaper route.
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.
Signs you need bath repair in Cutteslowe
Damage during fitting is very common. Tradespeople drop tools and tiles into the bath, and the damage isn’t always spotted until later. We repair snagging damage like this regularly.
People typically call us after spotting something like this:
- Chips under the taps
- Holes from dropped items
- Deep scratches in acrylic
- Chips along the edge of the bath

How to look after the repair
Most damage we see is avoidable. A few tips:
- Do not scrub with anything abrasive
- Use a soft cloth and washing-up liquid for everyday cleaning
- Put a towel in the bath if you’re working above it
- Rinse the bath after use, especially in hard water areas
There is nothing special to do after a repair, beyond gentle cleaning. Avoid bleach-based and gritty cleaners and rinse after use.
If water is getting through a crack, stop using the bath. Water under the bath can damage the floor and the ceiling below.
What a repair cannot fix
Before you book, it’s worth knowing the limits too:
- Metal that has corroded all the way through
- Cracks in acrylic we can’t reach from underneath
- Water coming from the waste or taps rather than the bath
Not sure? Send photos and we will give you a straight answer.

What else we do in Cutteslowe
Repairs by material
Pressed steel
Pressed steel is thinner and lighter, with an enamel finish like cast iron. Exposed steel rusts fast, especially around the waste, so early repairs matter.
Composite and resin
Stone resin and composite baths are heavy and solid. Chips and scratches can be filled and colour-matched, just like other baths.
Repair or replace: which is better?
Replacing a fitted bath usually means a plumber, removing the old bath, re-tiling and a new panel and disposing of the old one. Repairing it fixes just the damaged area in a single visit. Prices start from £95. There are no surprise extras on the day. The price we quote from your photos is the price you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.

What bath repair costs
Repairs from £95. Every quote is fixed and free. What we take into account:
- Access to the area
- How many items we do on one visit
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- The material
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.
How to get a fixed quote
We price nearly every job from pictures. This is what to send:
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- Details of any past repairs
- What it’s made of, if you know
- A picture taken from further back
Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us pictures through the quote form. With one close-up and one wider picture, we can give you a fixed quote.
