Bath repair in Ewelme without replacing anything

We repair enamelled steel, cast iron and acrylic baths. Each material is repaired a little differently: metal baths need any rust dealt with first, and acrylic cracks need support from behind. If you are dealing with scratches you can feel with a fingernail and rust by the waste and overflow, we can help.

All our work is covered by a one-year guarantee.

Common questions in Ewelme

What information do you need?

A close-up, a wider photo and your postcode. After that, we just agree a date.

Can you match an avocado or pink bath?

Yes. We mix the colour on the day to match, including pastel and older colours.

Can you price it without visiting?

In nearly every case. We only ask to see it in person if the photos can’t show what we need.

Can you redo an old repair?

Yes. We remove the old filler and start again. Mention it when you send pictures.

Do you come to Ewelme?

Yes. We work across the UK and travel to Ewelme and the rest of Oxfordshire. Send us photos for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

Can you redo someone else’s repair?

Typically, yes. We remove the old repair before doing a new one, so mention it when you send pictures.

When can I have a bath again?

Generally within a day, depending on the repair.

Can you fix rust around the plughole?

Yes. We remove the rust and loose enamel, fill the area, then colour-match the finish.

When we’d advise against a repair

To be straight with you, there are a few things a repair won’t fix:

  • Cracks in acrylic we can’t reach from underneath
  • A bath that flexes because its feet or cradle have failed (that needs fixing first)
  • A bath worn all over, where resurfacing makes more sense

Not sure? Send photos and we’ll give you a straight answer before you book.

Materials we repair

  • Roll-top & freestanding
  • Whirlpool & spa baths
  • Cast iron enamel
  • Pressed steel enamel
  • Acrylic

How it works

Expect a friendly, tidy visit. We confirm the time with you beforehand, protect the area, and get on with the job, which typically takes a few hours, depending on the damage. If we find something your photos didn’t show, we’ll explain it before carrying on.

  1. Dust sheets and masking go down around the bath.
  2. The damaged area is cleaned, keyed and degreased.
  3. Filler goes in and is sanded flush once it has set.
  4. We match both the colour and the shine.
  5. We clear up and give you the curing time, normally until the day after.

How to prepare

  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
  • Let us know about parking or access
  • Make sure the room can be ventilated

Ask for a price

We price from pictures so you don’t have to wait in for a survey. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through, and you’ll get a fixed figure back.

Advice

Keeping it looking good

Looking after the surface is easy:

  • Protect the bath with a towel when doing jobs nearby
  • Fix dripping taps early to stop staining and limescale
  • Don’t scrub with anything abrasive
  • Rinse it down after each bath

Leave the repair to cure for as long as we say before using the bath. From then on, mild cleaning is all it needs.

Until we visit, a strip of waterproof tape over the damage helps, to keep water out. Remove it before the repair.

Common problems we fix in Ewelme

Rust usually starts where water sits, by the plughole, beneath dripping taps or in an unrepaired chip. Once water reaches the steel or iron, rust spreads under the enamel.

It’s worth getting a quote if you see:

  • A failed DIY repair that is discoloured or lifting
  • Damage done while the bathroom was being fitted
  • A chipped rim or side
  • A cracked acrylic bath

  • Who turns up on the day

How to compare quotes

Landlords, agents and businesses in Ewelme

We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams in Oxfordshire and across the UK. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which is easier on the people living there.

Letting agents often send us photos straight from the inventory. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.

Materials and what they mean for the repair

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.

Cast iron

Cast iron baths are so heavy that repairing in place makes obvious sense. The enamel is the part that wears or chips, and that is the part we put right.

Why repair rather than replace?

People often assume a cracked or chipped bath has to come out. In most cases it does not: a repair keeps the bath in service for years, without the cost and upheaval of replacing it. Our bath repair starts from £95. The price reflects the work involved, not your postcode. You’ll see the full price before booking, with nothing added on the day.

What you get with us

  • Repair technicians who travel to you, UK-wide
  • Same prices wherever you are
  • One-year guarantee on every repair
  • Nothing taken out or refitted

See our full price list or bath cost comparison.

Prices and what affects them

Prices start from £95. We charge the same across the UK, including Ewelme. The price reflects:

  • How many items we do on one visit
  • Access to the area
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • The size and number of damaged areas

We do not add extras on the day. What we quote from your pictures is what you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.

Quotes from your photos

A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. Try to include:

  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • Details of any past repairs

Upload photos of the damage and a wider shot of the whole item, with your OX10 postcode, and we will come back with a fixed quote.
