When we would advise against a repair
To be straight with you, there are a few things a repair will not fix:
- A whole bath that’s dull or worn, where a full re-enamel is the better fix
- Flexing caused by a failed cradle or loose feet
- Acrylic cracks with no access behind them
Send us photos and we will tell you honestly.

Should I try a DIY kit first?
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, it’s worth having it done properly.
If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely and work on a clean, dry surface, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.

Prices and what affects them
Repairs from £95. We give every job a fixed price from pictures. This is what makes a difference:
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- How many areas need work
- The type of damage
- How easy the damage is to reach
Instead of hourly rates, we fix the price before we start. Damage, material and access decide it, and combining items on one visit brings it down.
Quotes from your pictures
Most quotes are done from photos alone. To make it quick:
- Where you are, by postcode
- Any details about the material
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
For a price in Odell, the easiest route is pictures: one close up, one from further back, plus your postcode. You will get a fixed quote with dates to choose from.
Repair or replace: which is better?
Swapping a damaged bath for a new one typically means a plumber, removing the old bath, making good the tiles and panel and getting rid of the old bath. A repair fixes just the damaged area in a single visit. Our bath repair starts from £95. We charge the same wherever you are, with no extra for Odell. The job itself decides the price: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

What we do, step by step
It’s a tidy, low-fuss visit. We confirm the time with you beforehand, cover and mask the work area, and get on with the job, which normally takes a morning or an afternoon. If we find something your photos didn’t show, we’ll explain it before carrying on.
- First, the area is cleaned and any loose enamel or rust is removed.
- Next we fill the damage and sand it smooth and level.
- We mix the colour on the day to match your bath’s exact shade.
- We build up the finish and polish it into the surrounding enamel.
- Once it has cured, generally by the following day, the bath is ready to use.
How to prepare
- Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
- Let us know about parking or access
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children

What your bath is made of matters
Cast iron
A cast iron bath is heavy enough that most people never want to move it. Only the enamel surface wears or chips, and that is what we repair.
Pressed steel
Under the enamel of a steel bath is thin metal. Once a chip exposes it, rust follows quickly, so the metal is treated and sealed before the repair.
How to care for the repair
Nothing complicated is needed:
- Cover the bath during DIY or decorating
- Don’t leave a fresh chip for long
- Avoid scourers, wire wool and gritty cream cleaners
- Use a soft cloth and washing-up liquid for everyday cleaning
Give the repair the full curing time we recommend before running a bath. After that, gentle cleaning keeps it looking good.
Rust spreads under enamel faster than most people expect. Left for months, a small chip can grow into a large rust patch, so early repair keeps the cost down.
Odell questions
It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?
Generally, yes. Let us know what was used before.
Do you cover the entire of Bedford Borough?
We work UK-wide, so Odell is covered. Our prices are the same everywhere.
What about rust by the waste?
Yes, it’s one of the most common repairs we do. We take it back to sound metal, seal it, fill it and match the colour.
Is it messy?
We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and tidy up before we leave.
Is a holed acrylic bath repairable?
Typically, yes, if we can reach behind it. The hole is backed, filled and refinished to match.
Can I get a quote without a visit?
Nearly always. We only ask to see it in person if the photos cannot show what we need.
Do you hold any accreditations?
Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.
How long before I can use the bath?
Generally within a day, though it depends on what we have done.

Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover, so there’s no need to replace a damaged item at the last minute. We can visit several plots in one trip to keep costs down.
Hospitality businesses need rooms back in use quickly, so we keep visits short and tidy. We’ll fit around changeovers where we can.
