About our bath repair in Oakworth
Bath repair is our most common job. A chip by the taps, a crack in the base and a rust spot by the plughole are all fixed without removing the bath, normally in a single visit. We work on acrylic, whirlpool & spa baths and roll-top & freestanding, and the jobs we see most are chips caused by builders and chips under the taps.
A one-year guarantee comes with the work, just as it does everywhere we cover.

Different materials, different repairs
Composite and resin
Composite baths are dense and solid. Chips and scratches can be filled and colour matched, in much the same way.
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.
When to call us in Oakworth
Dropped items cause the majority of chips, and a lot happen during bathroom refits. Cracks in acrylic have a different cause: the bath is not properly supported, so it flexes under weight.
The most common problems we’re called about are:
- A chip where the taps sit
- Scuffs and scratches in the surface
- Rust spots around the plughole
- A kit repair that didn’t last

For landlords and businesses
Rental properties take more wear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.
We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Send the address, photos and access details and we will arrange it.
Repair or replace in Oakworth?
Replacing a bath rarely stops at the bath: tiles along the rim typically 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. Prices start from £95. Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

Common questions in Oakworth
Do you work in Oakworth?
Yes, we do. We send a technician to Oakworth for every job, with no extra charge for travel.
Can you repair something that is been repaired before?
In most cases. The old repair comes out first, so let us know about it.
Will there be a smell?
Expect a mild smell while we are working, which fades afterwards.
I tried a repair kit. Can you fix it?
Yes, we do this often. We strip it out, deal with any rust and repair it again.
Will I be able to see the repair?
On a bath in good condition, a colour matched repair is very hard to spot. On worn enamel, it can look shinier than the rest.
Is a bath repair permanent?
A properly prepared repair should last a long time, and ours come with a one-year guarantee. Gentle cleaning helps.
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
We can work for tenants, landlords or agents. Get your landlord’s agreement first.
Are there extra charges for Oakworth?
Travel is included in the price, and we charge the same wherever you are.
Keeping it looking good
Once the work has cured, treat it gently:
- Have new chips seen to early
- Check that an acrylic bath does not move when you stand in it
- Rinse it down after each bath
- Store metal items away from the bath
Do not leave razors, cans or hair grips in the bath, as they can leave rust marks. A dripping tap should be fixed early, too.
Until we visit, a strip of waterproof tape over the damage helps, to keep water out. Remove it before the repair.
How we price bath repair
Repairs from £95. You will know the full cost before booking. We take into account:
- How many items we do on one visit
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- Unusual colours or finishes
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
The price depends on how much damage there is and what kind, what it’s made of and how many jobs we combine into one visit. You get a fixed quote from your photos, so there are no surprises on the day.
How to get a fixed price
Good photos mean an accurate price. Here’s what we find most useful:
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- What it’s made of, if you know
- A wider photo showing the entire bath
- Natural light rather than flash
Call 0345 017 0787 or use the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the entire bath, we can price the job without visiting.
Should I try a DIY kit first?
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is typically the cheaper route.
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.
What happens on the day
We agree an arrival time beforehand, so you know when to expect us. Once we are there, the work takes a few hours, depending on the damage for most jobs. We leave the room clean.
- First, the area is cleaned and any loose enamel or rust is removed.
- Next we fill the damage and sand it smooth and level.
- The colour is mixed on the spot to match your bath.
- We build up the finish and polish it into the surrounding enamel.
- Once it has cured, usually by the day after, the bath is ready to use.
Before we arrive
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
- Tell us about parking, stairs or access
- Open a window if you can
Ask for a price
The quickest way to a price is to send a couple of pictures using our quote form or call us. We’ll say immediately whether it can be repaired.
