How it works
Here’s how a visit usually runs: we arrive at the agreed slot, sheet and mask the area around the job, carry out the work and tidy away. Plan for a few hours from start to finish. Before we go, we’ll explain when it can be used and what to avoid for the first few days.
- Dust sheets and masking go down around the bath.
- The damaged area is cleaned, keyed and degreased, and any rust is treated.
- We fill it, let it set, then sand it flush.
- We match both the colour and the shine.
- We clear up and give you the curing time, normally until the next day.
Getting ready for the visit
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
- Let us know if it has been repaired before
How to get a price
For most jobs, pictures are all we need to give you a price. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.
Advice
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’s the part we put right.
Composite and resin
Composite baths are dense and solid. Chips and scratches can be filled and colour-matched, just like other baths.
Denchworth questions
I tried a repair kit. Can you fix it?
Yes, we do this frequently. We strip it out, deal with any rust and repair it again.
Will the repair show?
On a bath in good condition, a colour-matched repair is very hard to spot. On worn enamel, it can look shinier than the rest.
How soon can you come?
That depends on our diary for your area. We’ll offer you dates when we send your quote.
Do you charge for travel?
No. Our quotes include travel, with the same prices everywhere we work.
Is a repair better than a new one?
Generally, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. We will be honest if it’s not worth it.
How do I get a price for bath repair in Denchworth?
Repairs from £95. Every job gets a fixed quote from your pictures. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo and your postcode.
How do I book?
Just pictures, your postcode and a contact number. On the day, access to the room.
Is it messy?
Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and tidy up before we leave.
Repair or replace: which is better?
Many people think a damaged bath means a new one. In most cases it does not: a repair keeps the bath in service for years, without the cost and upheaval of replacing it. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Every job is a little different, so each one is priced on its own. The size and type of damage, the material and access all play a part, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

Work for landlords and builders
Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets cannot afford rooms out of action for long, so we keep visits short and tidy. We will fit around changeovers where we can.
Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.
Honest limits
Not everything can be repaired, and we will tell you before we start. Repairs will not solve:
- Cracks in parts of an acrylic bath we can’t get to from below
- Wear across the entire surface, which needs re-enamelling
- Flexing caused by a failed cradle or loose feet
Send us photos and we will tell you honestly.
Surfaces we repair
- Cast iron enamel
- Roll-top & freestanding
- Whirlpool & spa baths
- Acrylic
- Pressed steel enamel
Signs you need bath repair in Denchworth
A bath gets knocked about more than you’d think: bottles, shower heads and razors are dropped every day, and fittings press hard against the enamel. Over time, chips and rust spots are almost inevitable.
Look out for any of the following:
- Deep scratches in acrylic
- Chips caused by builders
- A hole punched through by something heavy

What else we do in Denchworth
How to care for the repair
A little care keeps the finish looking good. We recommend:
- Rinse it down after each bath
- Store metal items away from the bath
- Clean with warm water and a mild detergent
- Get a dripping tap fixed promptly
A repaired bath needs no special treatment, just sensible cleaning. Skip bleach and gritty creams.
Stop using the bath if a crack lets water through until it’s repaired. Leaks under a bath can damage floors and ceilings.
Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £95. You’ll know the full cost before you book. We take into account:
- How many areas need work
- The colour and finish to match
- How many items we do on one visit
- The material and finish
A few things move the price: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.
How to get a fixed quote
You can take the pictures on your phone, there is no need for anything special. Make sure they show:
- One picture of the whole bath
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- What it’s made of, if you know
To get a price, send a couple of pictures through our quote form or call us. We’ll tell you honestly if a repair is the right fix.
