Bath repair at your home in Kingston Lisle

Most bath damage, from chips and cracks to rust spots and holes, can be repaired with the bath left exactly where it is. Nothing is unplumbed, your tiles stay as they are, and the finish is matched to the rest of the bath. If you’re dealing with a cracked acrylic bath and a chipped rim or side, we can help, whatever the material.

The work is covered for a year after we finish. Just call us if there is a problem and we’ll sort it.

What we do, step by step

Expect a friendly, tidy visit. We confirm the time with you beforehand, cover and mask the work area, then carry out the work, which generally takes two to three hours for most chips. If we find something your photos didn’t show, we’ll explain it before carrying on.

  1. We clean the area and remove any loose enamel or rust.
  2. We fill the damage and sand it flush with the surrounding surface.
  3. We tint the finish on the day to suit your bath’s shade of white or colour.
  4. Finish coats go on, then the repair is polished to blend in.
  5. Once it has cured, typically by the following day, the bath is ready to use.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
  • Open a window if you can
  • Let us know which floor the room is on

10 questions to ask before booking

Should you replace it?

Think about the hidden costs of a new bath: removal and disposal, plumbing, a new panel, tiling and decorating. With a repair, it’s one visit and one price. Our bath repair starts from £95. What it costs depends on how much damage there is and what kind, what it’s made of and how many items we do on one visit. You get a fixed price from your pictures, so you know the cost before booking.

Why us?

  • CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited
  • Nothing taken out or refitted
  • Dust sheets down, tidy finish
  • Work done at your home or business

Take a look at our full price list or guide to resurfacing and replacement costs.

Work for landlords and builders

For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover. Several plots can be done in one visit.

We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out pictures. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.

Your questions about bath repair in Kingston Lisle

Is a repair better than a new one?

In most cases, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. We’ll be honest if it’s not worth it.

Will it make a mess?

No. The work area is masked and covered, and we leave the room clean.

What information do you need?

Some photos, your postcode and how to reach you. On the day, we only need access to the room.

Do you cover the entire of Oxfordshire?

All of Oxfordshire, and the rest of the UK. There’s no extra charge for travel.

Something went through my bath. Can it be fixed?

Generally. Send us a photo of the hole and one from under the bath if you can.

I’m a tenant. Can you help?

We can work for tenants, landlords or agents. Get your landlord’s agreement first.

Do you come to Kingston Lisle?

Yes. We work across the UK and come to Kingston Lisle. Send us pictures for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

Is a bath repair permanent?

A properly prepared repair should last a long time, and ours come with a one-year guarantee. Gentle cleaning helps.

What a repair can’t fix

To be straight with you, there are a few things a repair will not fix:

  • Cracks in acrylic we cannot reach from underneath
  • Rust that has eaten right through a steel bath
  • Flexing caused by a failed cradle or loose feet

If in doubt, send pictures and we will say what we think.

What we work on

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

How to look after the repair

Looking after the surface is easy, and it makes a real difference:

  • Stick to mild cleaners and a soft cloth
  • If an acrylic bath flexes, have its feet adjusted
  • Give the bath a quick rinse after use
  • Don’t leave razors or cans standing in the bath

A repaired bath needs no special treatment, beyond gentle cleaning. Skip bleach and gritty creams and rinse after use.

A small chip is a quick job. Left alone, they stain and can rust, so early repair saves time and money.

How we price bath repair

Repairs from £95. Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we take into account:

  • Access to the area
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • Doing more than one item at once

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. Send photos and you will get a fixed figure.

Send photos for a quote

Phone photos are fine. Just ensure we can see:

  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • Details of any past repairs
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • Where you are, by postcode

Email us photos of the damage and a wider shot of the whole item, with your OX12 postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote.

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Acrylic

Acrylic is light and warm to the touch, but it needs firm support underneath. Repairs to cracks are reinforced from the back.

Pressed steel

Steel baths are lighter than cast iron, but have a similar enamel surface. Chips rust quickly on steel, particularly by the plughole, so repair chips early.
