About our bath repair in Littleworth

We repair enamelled steel, cast iron and acrylic baths. The method changes with the material: rust is treated on metal baths, while cracks in acrylic are reinforced from underneath. If you are dealing with a chip where the taps sit and rust by the waste and overflow, we can typically put it right, whatever the material.

You’re covered after we leave: our one-year guarantee applies to every job, and we explain what it covers before booking.

Repair or replace in Littleworth?

A new bath costs more than the bath itself: removal and disposal, plumbing, a new panel, tiling and decorating. A repair is one job, done in one visit. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. The price depends on how much damage there is and what kind, the material and how many items we do on one visit. We give a fixed quote from your photos, so there are no surprises on the day.

Why us?

  • Typically one visit, start to finish
  • A year’s guarantee on all work
  • Rooms protected and left tidy
  • Everything repaired in place

Prices and what affects them

Repairs from £95. Each job gets its own fixed quote. This is what makes a difference:

  • How hard the colour is to match
  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • Doing more than one item at once

A repair generally costs much less than people expect, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

Getting a price from pictures

We price nearly every job from pictures. This is what to send:

  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • Any details about the material
  • One picture of the entire bath

To get a price, send a couple of pictures through our quote form or call us. We’ll tell you honestly if a repair is the right fix.

What happens on the day

Expect a friendly, tidy visit. We agree the arrival time in advance, protect the area, then carry out the work, which normally takes a few hours, depending on the damage. If we find something your pictures didn’t show, we’ll explain it before carrying on.

  1. First, the area is cleaned and any loose enamel or rust is removed.
  2. The chip or crack is filled, then sanded level with the bath.
  3. The colour is mixed on the spot to match your bath.
  4. Finish coats go on, then the repair is polished to blend in.
  5. The repair is left to cure, and most baths can be used the next day.

Preparing for the visit

  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
  • Have a window or extractor fan available
  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing

How to get a price

For most jobs, photos are all we need to give you a price. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we’ll send back a fixed quote and some dates.

DIY kit or professional repair?

For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.

The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.

Landlord and trade work in Littleworth

We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Littleworth as well as homeowners. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it costs much less than replacing.

Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets cannot afford rooms out of action for long, so we keep visits short and tidy. We will fit around changeovers where we can.

Different materials, different repairs

Cast iron

Cast iron is heavy and rigid, with a fused enamel surface. Chips can rust if left, but the bath itself lasts for generations, which makes it well worth repairing.

Composite and resin

Composite baths are dense and solid. Chips and scratches can be filled and colour matched, in much the same way.

What we can’t put right

To be straight with you, some problems need a different fix:

  • Rust that has eaten right through a steel bath
  • Wear across the whole surface, which needs re-enamelling
  • Flexing caused by a failed cradle or loose feet

Send us photos and we will tell you honestly.

Materials we repair

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

Littleworth questions

Can you do more than one item on the same visit?

Yes. Doing several items on one visit typically costs less than separate visits. Send photos of everything you’d like done.

It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?

Most of the time. Tell us what was done before.

Can you repair a failed DIY repair?

Yes. We take out the old repair and do it properly. Tell us about it when you send pictures.

Which areas do you work in?

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

Will there be a smell?

A little, depending on the job. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum.

Something went through my bath. Can it be fixed?

Generally, yes, if we can reach behind it. We back the hole, fill it and refinish the surface.

How long does the repair take to cure?

Generally within a day, depending on the repair.

Can you price it without visiting?

Yes, almost always. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed quote.
