Bath repair in Leafield without replacing anything
Whatever has happened to the bath, we aim for the same result: a repair that is smooth, sound and hard to spot. We prepare the area properly, fill and shape it, then match the colour and gloss so it sits flush with the rest of the bath. If you are dealing with a cracked acrylic bath and damage done while the bathroom was being fitted, we can help, on roll-top & freestanding, whirlpool & spa baths and cast iron enamel alike.
We stand behind the work with a one-year guarantee, so you’re covered after the visit.

Keeping it looking good
Most damage we see is avoidable. A few tips:
- Protect the bath with a towel when doing jobs nearby
- Store metal items away from the bath
- Use a soft cloth and washing-up liquid for everyday cleaning
- Check that an acrylic bath doesn’t move when you stand in it
For the first few days, keep heavy bottles off the repaired spot. After that, clean it as you would the rest of the bath, avoiding abrasives.
Stop using the bath if a crack lets water through. Water under the bath can damage the floor and the ceiling below.

Advice
What your bath is made of matters
Acrylic
Acrylic feels warm and is light, but it needs firm support underneath. Repairs to cracks are reinforced from the back.
Composite and resin
Composite baths are dense and solid. Chips and scratches can be filled and colour-matched, in much the same way.
Signs you need bath repair in Leafield
Baths take more knocks than people expect: everyday items get dropped into it all the time, and taps and wastes are tightened against the surface. Over time, chips and rust spots are almost inevitable.
Most people get in touch when they notice something like this:
- Rust spots around the plughole
- Impact holes in acrylic
- Hairline or through cracks in acrylic
- Scuffs and scratches in the surface
What your quote should include

For landlords and businesses
Letting agents frequently send us pictures 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.
If you manage property in Leafield, we will quote for several properties at once. Just send photos for each address and we’ll price them together.
Repairing versus replacing in Leafield
A new bath costs more than the bath itself: taking out the old one, plumbing, tiling, a panel and redecorating. With a repair, it’s one visit and one price. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. The price depends on how much damage there is and what kind, what it’s made of and how many jobs we combine into one visit. We give a fixed price from your photos, so you know the cost before you book.

DIY repairs versus a professional job
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it will not stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.
Questions from Leafield
Is it safe with children and pets around?
Please keep children and pets out of the room during the visit and until it has cured. Everywhere else in the home is fine.
Can you redo an old repair?
Yes, we do this often. We strip it out, deal with any rust and repair it again.
Do I need to be at home?
Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. After that, you can carry on with your day.
Can a cracked acrylic bath be fixed?
In most cases. The back of the crack is strengthened before the front is filled and refinished, so we need access under the bath.
Something went through my bath. Can it be fixed?
Normally. Photos of the hole and the underside help us check.
Can you repair something that is been repaired before?
Yes, regularly. It can add a little time, which we include in the quote.
How do I book?
A close-up, a wider photo and your postcode. Then we’ll agree a date.
