About our bath repair in Marcham
Whatever has happened to the bath, we aim for the same result: a repair that is smooth, sound and hard to spot. Proper preparation, careful filling and shaping, then colour and gloss matching so it’s level with the surrounding surface. Whether it’s holes from dropped items and a failed DIY repair that’s discoloured or lifting, we can help.
All our work is covered by our one-year guarantee, wherever you are in Oxfordshire.

What we are called out for in Marcham
Heavy toiletries are the biggest single cause of chips, with dropped shower heads close behind. Fittings cause damage too: water sits around them, and any chip there soon rusts.
Get in touch if you’ve noticed:
- Deep scratches in acrylic
- Damage beneath the taps
- Rust spots around the plughole
- Hairline or through cracks in acrylic
Before you book anyone

- How changes to the job are handled
- If travel is included in the price
- What protection goes down before work starts
What happens on the day
Your technician turns up at the time we agreed with you and looks over the damage before anything else. Dust sheets and masking tape go down before any work starts. The work itself takes two to three hours for most chips, and we leave the room as we found it.
- First, we check the damage against your pictures and agree the plan.
- Any rust and loose material comes out, and the area is degreased.
- We build up the filler in layers, shaping it to the bath.
- The colour is tinted by hand until it matches.
- The repair is polished to the same gloss as the bath and left to cure.
Getting ready for the visit
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
- Open a window if you can
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day

What we can’t put right
We would rather lose a job than do one that will not last, so here’s what a repair cannot put right:
- Water coming from the waste or taps rather than the bath
- Cracks in parts of an acrylic bath we cannot get to from below
- Flexing caused by a failed cradle or loose feet
Not sure? Send photos and we’ll give you a straight answer.
What we work on
- Whirlpool & spa baths
- Pressed steel enamel
- Cast iron enamel
- Roll-top & freestanding
- Acrylic
Different materials, different repairs
Composite and resin
Stone resin and composite baths are heavy and solid, and often freestanding. Chips and scratches can be filled and colour-matched, just like other baths.
Pressed steel
Steel baths and trays have a thin metal body under the enamel. Exposed steel rusts quickly, so we treat and seal the metal before filling.
DIY repairs versus a professional job
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, a professional repair is worth it.
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, then guarantee it for a year.
Repairing versus replacing in Marcham
A new bath costs more than the bath itself: taking out the old one, plumbing, tiling, a panel and redecorating. A repair is one job, done in one visit. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. We charge the same wherever you are, so there is no premium for Marcham. The job itself decides the price: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.
Why us?
- Repair technicians who travel to you, UK-wide
- Nothing taken out or refitted
- Rooms protected and left tidy
- CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited

How we price bath repair
Repairs from £95. We charge the same across the UK, including Marcham. What changes the price is:
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- The material and finish
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- Unusual colours or finishes
No two jobs are quite the same, so we price each one individually. The size and type of damage, the material and access all play a part, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.
How to get a fixed price
A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. Try to include:
- Where you are, by postcode
- Details of any past repairs
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- A wider photo showing the whole bath
No survey visit is needed: we price from photos. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through.
