Bath repair in Hethe, done in place

A damaged bath does not have to mean a new bathroom. We fill the damage, shape it to the curve of the bath and refinish it, with the colour mixed on site so the repair is hard to spot. Whether it’s a cracked acrylic bath and impact holes in acrylic, we can normally put it right, whatever the material.

All of our repairs are guaranteed for twelve months. If something goes wrong with the work, we come back.

How we price bath repair

Prices start from £95. We give every job a fixed quote from pictures. This is what makes a difference:

  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • What the surface is made of
  • How many items we do on one visit
  • How many areas need work

We charge the same wherever you are, with no extra for Hethe. What changes the price is the job itself: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

Send pictures for a quote

The better the pictures, the more accurate the price. Here’s what we find most useful:

  • One picture of the whole bath
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • Details of any past repairs

No survey visit is needed: we price from photos. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through.

Common problems we fix in Hethe

Glass and heavy bottles cause more chips than anything else. Fittings cause damage too: water collects there, so chips nearby rust quickly.

Signs it’s time to call us include:

  • Holes from dropped items
  • A cracked acrylic bath
  • Chips along the edge of the bath
  • Damage done while the bathroom was being fitted

10 questions to ask before you book

Landlords, agents and businesses in Hethe

Letting agents frequently send us photos straight from the inventory. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.

Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover. Several plots can be done in one visit to keep costs down.

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Acrylic

Acrylic baths are moulded sheet reinforced underneath. There is no rust, but cracks, holes and scratches happen, and a crack only stays repaired if it’s supported underneath.

Pressed steel

Steel baths and trays have a thin metal body under the enamel. Exposed steel rusts quickly, so the metal is treated and sealed before the repair.

Should you replace it?

Replacing a fitted bath usually means a plumber, removing the old bath, re-tiling and a new panel and disposing of the old one. A repair deals only with the damage in a single visit. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. A repair is priced on what needs doing, not your postcode. You’ll see the full price before you book, with no extras added later.

Why book with us

  • Colour mixed on the day to match
  • We leave the room as we found it
  • Fixed prices from your pictures
  • We come to you, anywhere in the UK

See our pricing and guide to resurfacing and replacement costs.

Can I fix it myself?

What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, then guarantee it for a year.

It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is normally cheaper.

Your questions about bath repair in Hethe

What happens after I send pictures?

We look at the photos and reply with a fixed price and some dates. If we need another angle, we will ask.

Which areas do you work in?

We cover the whole UK, including Hethe and the rest of Oxfordshire. Just include your postcode and we’ll confirm dates.

When can you do it?

Your quote comes with available dates. If it’s urgent, say so and we will do what we can.

What happens if you find more damage?

The price is fixed for what the pictures show. If there is more, we’ll tell you before starting.

Is there any odour?

It depends on the job, but frequently a little. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum.

Do you work in Hethe?

Yes. We cover the entire UK and travel to Hethe and the rest of Oxfordshire. Send pictures and we’ll quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

Do I have to be there?

Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. After that, you can carry on with your day.

Is a bath repair permanent?

It should, as long as the bath is firm and the area was prepared well. It’s covered by our one-year guarantee.

How it works

You don’t need to empty the room beforehand. We bring everything we need with us, put protection down and get going once we’ve agreed what we are doing. Most jobs take a few hours, depending on the damage, and you are welcome to carry on with your day while we work.

  1. First, we check the damage against your photos and agree the plan.
  2. Loose enamel, rust and dirt are removed so the repair can bond.
  3. We build up the filler in layers, shaping it to the bath.
  4. The colour is tinted by hand until it matches.
  5. The repair is polished to the same gloss as the bath and left to cure.

Before we arrive

  • Make sure the area is dry
  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
  • Keep a parking space free if you can

Keeping it looking good

Aftercare is simple:

  • Use a soft cloth and washing-up liquid for everyday cleaning
  • Don’t leave razors or cans standing in the bath
  • Have new chips seen to early
  • If an acrylic bath flexes, have its feet adjusted

Don’t leave razors, cans or hair grips in the bath, because they can mark the enamel. A dripping tap should be fixed early, too.

Stop using the bath if a crack lets water through. Leaks under a bath can damage floors and ceilings.
