About our bath repair in Oatlands
Small damage on a bath is worth repairing early. On steel and cast iron, exposed metal starts to rust, while cracks in acrylic grow each time the bath moves. A repair stops both. If you’re dealing with rust by the waste and overflow and damage done while the bathroom was being fitted, we can help.
Every job is backed for twelve months, and the guarantee is the same wherever you live. We return to put right any problem with the work.

Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £95. You will not pay by the hour. The price depends on:
- The size and number of damaged areas
- Access to the area
- The material and finish
- What kind of damage it is
Rather than charging by the hour, we price the entire job up front. Damage, material and access decide it.
Getting a price from photos
When you take your pictures, these tips help us give you a firm price:
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- A wider photo showing the entire bath
- The material, if you know it
Most customers in Oatlands get their price from pictures. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.

Repairs by material
Pressed steel
Under the enamel of a steel bath is thin metal. Exposed steel rusts quickly, so we treat and seal the metal before filling.
Composite and resin
Stone resin and composite baths are heavy and solid. Chips and scratches are filled and matched, just like other baths.
When we would advise against a repair
It helps to know what we can’t do too:
- Flexing caused by a failed cradle or loose feet
- Wear across the entire surface, which needs re-enamelling
- Cracks in parts of an acrylic bath we can’t get to from below
Not sure? Send pictures and we will give you a straight answer before booking.

Can I fix it myself?
For a hairline mark somewhere you will 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.
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
Aftercare tips
Much of the damage we repair could have been avoided. These habits help:
- Rinse the bath after use, especially in hard water areas
- Avoid scourers, wire wool and gritty cream cleaners
- Have new chips seen to early
- Do not leave razors or cans standing in the bath
Clean with mild, non-abrasive cleaners and avoid dropping heavy items on the repaired area. Deal with new chips early, before rust can start.
If an acrylic bath has a crack, stop showering in it until it’s repaired. Every use opens the crack a little more, and water can get through to the floor below.
What happens on the day
We agree an arrival time beforehand, so you know when to expect us. Once we’re there, the work takes a few hours for most jobs. The room is left tidy and ready to use once it has cured.
- We start by looking at the damage and confirming the plan with you.
- 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.
How to prepare
- Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
- Let us know if it has been repaired before
- Let us know about parking or access
How to get a price
Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us pictures through the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the entire bath, we can price the job without visiting.

Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Our prices are the same across the UK, with no extra for Oatlands. The job itself decides the price: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

Your questions about bath repair in Oatlands
What happens if you find more damage?
The price is fixed for what the photos show. Anything extra is discussed before we begin.
Can you repair several things at once?
Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Include photos of each item.
Will there be a smell?
Some materials have a smell while they’re applied, so we ventilate the room. It fades as everything cures.
I rent my home. Can I book you?
Yes, but check with your landlord or agent first. Landlords are often glad to have it sorted before the end of a tenancy.
How do I get a price for bath repair in Oatlands?
Prices start from £95. Because every job differs, we price from photos. You know the full cost before anything is booked.
What areas do you cover?
We work UK-wide, so Oatlands is covered. Our prices are the same everywhere.
Can you repair a hole in a bath?
In most cases. Photos of the hole and the underside help us check.
Is my repair covered?
Yes, for a year. If there’s a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.
For landlords and businesses
Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.
Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs in Glasgow and across the UK. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which is easier on the people living there.
