Bath repair in Little Milton without replacing anything
Whatever has happened to the bath, we aim for the same result: a smooth, solid repair that blends in. 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. Common call-outs are for a chip where the taps sit and scuffs and scratches in the surface, across cast iron enamel, pressed steel enamel and roll-top & freestanding.
Whatever the size of the job, you get the same one-year guarantee in Little Milton and across Oxfordshire.

What we can’t put right
A repair is not always the answer, and we’d rather say so up front. We cannot fix:
- A whole bath that’s dull or worn, where a full re-enamel is the better fix
- Flexing caused by a failed cradle or loose feet
- Rust that has eaten right through a steel bath
Send us pictures and we will tell you honestly.
Materials we repair
- Cast iron enamel
- Whirlpool & spa baths

- Pressed steel enamel
- Roll-top & freestanding

Should you replace it?
People frequently assume a cracked or chipped bath has to come out. Typically it doesn’t: a proper repair gives it years more use, without the cost and upheaval of replacing it. Our bath repair starts from £95. No two jobs are quite the same, so each one is priced on its own. The size and type of damage, the material and access all make a difference, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

FAQs for Little Milton
Can tenants book a repair?
Yes, though it’s best to check with your landlord first. Landlords are frequently glad to have it sorted before the end of a tenancy.
How long does the repair take to cure?
Typically within a day, depending on the repair.
Can you repair a hole in a bath?
Frequently, if there is access underneath. The hole is backed, filled and refinished to match.
Can you price it without visiting?
In nearly every case. If photos don’t show enough, we will ask for another angle.
Do you cover the whole of Oxfordshire?
We work UK-wide. Prices do not change with location.
Can rust on a bath be repaired?
Yes. We remove the rust and loose enamel, fill the area, then colour-match the finish.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Of course, and it generally saves money. Send pictures of everything together and we’ll quote them together.
Can you redo an old repair?
Yes. We remove the old filler and start again. Tell us about it when you send photos.
Work for landlords and builders
Rental properties take more wear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.
We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which is easier on the people living there.
When to call us in Little Milton
A cracked acrylic bath generally wasn’t supported properly. Legs that are not adjusted, a missing cradle or a soft floor let the base flex until it cracks.
Clients typically contact us about:
- Rust by the waste and overflow
- Chips along the edge of the bath
- Scuffs and scratches in the surface
- Hairline or through cracks in acrylic
What your quote should include
- Aftercare advice
- Who turns up on the day
- How soon you can use it again
- Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT
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
Under the enamel of a steel bath is thin metal. Exposed steel rusts quickly, so we treat and seal the metal before filling.
DIY kit or professional repair?
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.

How we price bath repair
Repairs from £95. You’ll know the full cost before booking. We look at:
- The size and number of damaged areas
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- Whether we combine several jobs
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. We give a fixed price from your pictures, so there are no surprises on the day.
Getting a price from photos
Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what to send:
- The material, if you know it
- Details of any past repairs
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- One picture of the entire bath
To get a price, send two or three pictures using our quote form or call us. We will tell you honestly if a repair is the right fix.
