Bath repair in Northmoor without replacing anything
A repair fixes just the damaged area and blends it into the rest of the bath, which is far cheaper than replacing a fitted bath. You can typically use the bath the next day. We’re often asked to fix a hole punched through by something heavy and scratches you can feel with a fingernail, on pressed steel enamel, roll-top & freestanding and acrylic.
Peace of mind is built in: our one-year guarantee applies to every job, and we’ll explain exactly what it covers when we quote.

Should I try a DIY kit first?
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully and work on a clean, dry surface, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.
For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, it’s worth having it done properly.

What we’re called out for in Northmoor
Many chips happen while the bathroom is being fitted. Tools, tiles and fittings get dropped into the bath, and the damage isn’t always spotted until later. We repair snagging damage like this regularly.
Typical reasons for a call-out include:
- Rust spots around the plughole
- Chips along the edge of the bath
- Snagging damage from a refit
- A cracked acrylic bath
Questions to ask before booking
- When it can be used again
- Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price
- Aftercare advice
- If travel is included in the price
Why repair rather than replace?
For damage in one or two places, a repair is the obvious choice. It costs far less than a new bath plus fitting, it’s done in one visit, and the bathroom stays exactly as it is. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. The price reflects the work involved, not your postcode. You will see the full price before booking, with nothing added on the day.
Why book with us
- Honest advice, even when it means no job
- Nothing taken out or refitted
- Technicians who travel to you, UK-wide
- One price list for the entire UK
See our prices page or resurfacing vs replacement cost guide.
What your bath is made of matters
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
Steel baths and trays have a thin metal body under the enamel. Exposed steel rusts quickly, so the metal is treated and sealed before the repair.
FAQs for Northmoor
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
Generally, yes. Let us know what was used before and we will plan for it.
Is my repair covered?
Every repair comes with our one-year guarantee. We’ll explain what it covers when we quote.
Is there a call-out fee?
Travel is included in the price, and we charge the same wherever you are.
Can you repair a chip on a coloured bath?
Yes, we match coloured baths too. We tint the finish to your bath on site.
How much does bath repair cost in Northmoor?
Prices start from £95. We give a fixed quote based on pictures of the damage. Send a close-up and a picture of the entire item with your OX29 postcode.
Can you repair several things at once?
Yes. Doing several items on one visit normally costs less than separate visits. Include photos of each item.
How do I book?
Photos of the damage, a picture of the entire bath and your postcode. After that, we just agree a date.
Can you redo an old repair?
Regularly. We strip it out, deal with any rust and repair it again.
Keeping it looking good
Once the work has cured, treat it gently:
- A dripping tap stains enamel, so fix it early
- Give the bath a quick rinse after use
- Store metal items away from the bath
- Ensure an acrylic bath is firm underfoot
Use gentle, non-abrasive cleaners and avoid dropping heavy items on the repaired area. Get any new chip seen to quickly, before rust can start.
Rust under enamel spreads surprisingly quickly. A chip the size of a fingernail can become a much larger patch if it’s left for months, so early repair keeps the cost down.
What a repair can’t fix
Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair can’t fix:
- Cracks in parts of an acrylic bath we cannot get to from below
- Leaks from the waste or overflow fittings (a plumber’s job)
- Rust that has eaten right through a steel bath
Not sure? Send photos and we will give you a straight answer before you book.

For landlords and businesses

We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Just send pictures, the address and how to get access.
How the visit works
Visits start with a quick look at the job together, so there are no surprises. Then the area is sheeted and masked and the work begins. You can expect it to take a few hours.
- First, we check the damage against your photos and agree the plan.
- Any rust and loose material comes out, and the area is degreased.
- The damage is filled in layers and shaped to the curve of the bath.
- The colour is tinted by hand until it matches.
- Finally, it’s polished to match the shine and left to cure.
Before we arrive
- Let us know about parking or access
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
Getting a price
You don’t need a survey visit. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we’ll come back to you with a fixed figure.
