How we handle bath repair in East Hendred
You don’t need a new bath because of a chip. Our technicians fill, shape and refinish the damage, with the colour mixed on site. If you are dealing with a kit repair that didn’t last and snagging damage from a refit, we can normally put it right, whatever the material.
You are covered for a year from the day of the repair. If anything is not right, ring us and we’ll sort it.

When a repair isn’t the answer
Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:
- A bath that moves underfoot, until its support is fixed
- Metal that has corroded all the way through
- Wear across the entire surface, which needs re-enamelling

Aftercare tips
Aftercare is simple, and it makes a real difference:
- Do not scrub with anything abrasive
- Cover the bath during DIY or decorating
- Rinse it down after each bath
- Fix dripping taps early to stop staining and limescale
For the first few days, keep heavy bottles off the repaired spot. After that, clean it as you would the rest of the bath.
A small chip is a quick job. Left alone, they stain and can rust, so early repair saves time and money.

How the visit works
Your technician turns up when we said we would and checks the damage against your pictures first. Dust sheets and masking tape go down before we open a single tin. Most visits take a morning or an afternoon, and we leave the room as we found it.
- We start by looking at the damage and confirming the plan with you.
- Any rust and loose material comes out, and the area is degreased.
- 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
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day

Materials and what they mean for the repair
Acrylic
Acrylic feels warm and is light, but it needs firm support underneath. Cracks are strengthened from behind before the front is finished.
Pressed steel
Pressed steel is thinner and lighter, with an enamel finish like cast iron. Exposed steel rusts fast, especially around the waste, so repair chips early.
East Hendred questions
Can a cracked acrylic bath be fixed?
Often, yes, if we can reach the underside to reinforce it. Take off the bath panel and check, or send us a picture.
How soon can you come?
It depends on the time of year and where you are. Send photos with your postcode and we’ll reply with the earliest dates.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
Generally, if the item is otherwise sound. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. If replacing would be better, we’ll say so.
Do you cover the entire of Oxfordshire?
The entire UK, including all of Oxfordshire. Send your postcode with your photos and we will confirm dates.
Is there a guarantee?
Yes, for a year. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.
Is a bath repair durable?
Yes, if it’s prepared properly and the bath is sound. It carries our one-year guarantee.
How much does bath repair cost in East Hendred?
Repairs from £95. Because every job differs, we price from photos. You’ll get a fixed figure before booking.
What happens once I’ve sent photos?
We come back with a fixed quote. You’re under no obligation.
Signs you need bath repair in East Hendred
Baths take more knocks than people expect: bottles, shower heads and razors are dropped every day, and taps and wastes are tightened against the surface. Over time, chips and rust spots are almost inevitable.
These are the problems we are asked about most:
- An old repair that has yellowed or come loose
- Impact holes in acrylic
- A chip where the taps sit
- Scratches you can feel with a fingernail
Comparing quotes
- Whether there are any call-out or travel charges
- The length of the guarantee and what it covers
- Whether they match the colour on site
- A fixed quote, and whether VAT is included
DIY kit or professional repair?
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, then guarantee it for a year.
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and then the old filler has to be removed first.

We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams in Oxfordshire and across the UK. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which is easier on the people living there.
