About our bath repair in Oakengates
It pays to repair bath damage while it’s small. Exposed metal on enamelled baths soon rusts, while cracks in acrylic grow each time the bath moves. A repair stops both. Whether it’s a chipped rim or side and damage done while the bathroom was being fitted, we can usually put it right, whatever the material.
Peace of mind is built in: each job carries a one-year guarantee, and we explain what it covers before you book.

DIY kit or professional repair?
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
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, then guarantee it for a year.
Your questions about bath repair in Oakengates
Do you charge for travel?
We do not add a call-out fee. Your fixed price includes everything.
Is the work guaranteed?
Yes, for a year. If there’s a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.
Do you come to Oakengates?
Yes, we do. We send a technician to Oakengates for every job, with no extra charge for travel.
Can you fix rust around the plughole?
Yes, very frequently. The rust is cut back to clean metal and sealed before we fill and finish it.
Do I have to be there?
We need someone to let us in. After that, you can carry on with your day.
How do I get a price for bath repair in Oakengates?
Repairs from £95. The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from pictures. You will get a fixed figure before booking.
It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?
Generally, yes. Let us know what was used before and we will plan for it.
Is it safe with children and pets around?
Yes, as long as they stay out of the room we are working in. We’ll tell you when the room can be used again.
What we cannot put right
We will always be straight with you, so here’s what a repair can’t fix:
- A bath that flexes because its feet or cradle have failed (that needs fixing first)
- Cracks in parts of an acrylic bath we can’t get to from below
- A steel bath rusted through
Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly.
Materials we work on in Oakengates
- Roll-top & freestanding
- Acrylic
- Pressed steel enamel
- Cast iron enamel
- Whirlpool & spa baths
What your bath is made of matters
Cast iron
Cast iron baths are thick and very strong, with a fused enamel surface. Chips can rust if left, but the bath itself lasts for generations, which makes it well worth repairing.
Acrylic
An acrylic bath is a moulded sheet strengthened from below. There’s no rust, but cracks, holes and scratches happen, and a crack only stays repaired if it’s supported underneath.
Aftercare tips
Much of the damage we repair could have been avoided. These habits help:
- Fix dripping taps early to stop staining and limescale
- Stick to mild cleaners and a soft cloth
- Don’t scrub with anything abrasive
- Put a towel in the bath if you’re working above it
Keep metal objects like razors and cans off the surface, because they can mark the enamel. And fix dripping taps promptly.
Until we visit, a strip of waterproof tape over the damage helps, so water can’t get in. Remove it before the repair.

What else we do in Oakengates
What bath repair costs
Repairs from £95. You will know the full cost before you book. We take into account:
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- Unusual colours or finishes
- The size and number of damaged areas
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
Our prices are the same across the UK, so there is no premium for Oakengates. The job itself decides the price: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.
Send photos for a quote
Good photos mean an accurate price. Here’s what helps:
- Something in shot to show the size
- The material, if you know it
- Natural light rather than flash
- One picture of the whole bath
For a price in Oakengates, pictures are the quickest way: one close up, one from further back, plus your postcode. You’ll get a fixed quote with dates to choose from.
For landlords and businesses
We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out pictures. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.
If you manage property in Oakengates, we’ll quote for several properties at once. Send photos for each one and we will come back with a combined price.
Should you replace it?
Replacing a bath rarely stops at the bath: tiles along the rim usually crack when it comes out, the panel may not fit the new one, and the plumbing has to be disconnected and refitted. A repair skips all of it. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. The price reflects the work involved, not where you live. You will see the full price before you book, with nothing added on the day.
Why us?
- We come to you, anywhere in the UK
- Same prices wherever you are
- Colour mixed on the day to match
- We leave the room as we found it

How it works
Your technician turns up when we said we would, introduces themselves and checks the damage against your pictures first. Dust sheets and masking tape go down before any work starts. Most visits take a few hours, and the room is left clean and tidy.
- Dust sheets and masking go down around the bath.
- The damaged area is cleaned, keyed and degreased, and any rust is treated.
- Filler goes in and is sanded flush once it has set.
- We match both the colour and the shine.
- We clear up and give you the curing time, normally until the day after.
Getting ready for the visit
- Let us know which floor the room is on
- Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
- Clear the area around the damage
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 will reply with a fixed quote.
