Bath repair at your home in Oglet
We repair just the damaged spot and colour-match it to the bath, which costs far less than replacing a fitted bath and the tiles around it. Most baths can be used again the next day. If you’re dealing with hairline or through cracks in acrylic and deep scratches in acrylic, we can help, on pressed steel enamel, whirlpool & spa baths and cast iron enamel alike.
Every repair comes with a one-year guarantee.

Different materials, different repairs
Cast iron
Cast iron is heavy and rigid, finished with fired enamel. Chips can rust if left, but the bath itself lasts for generations, which makes it well worth repairing.
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.
Honest limits
Some jobs are not right for a repair, including:
- Cracks in acrylic we cannot reach from underneath
- A steel bath rusted through
- A bath that moves underfoot, until its support is fixed
If in doubt, send photos and we’ll say what we think before booking.
Materials we work on in Oglet
- Pressed steel enamel
- Cast iron enamel
- Acrylic
- Whirlpool & spa baths
- Roll-top & freestanding
Aftercare tips
How the surface is treated afterwards matters:
- Rinse the bath after use, especially in hard water areas
- Stick to mild cleaners and a soft cloth
- Protect the bath with a towel when doing jobs nearby
- Make sure an acrylic bath is firm underfoot
For the first few days, keep heavy bottles off the repaired spot. After that, clean it as you would the rest of the bath, avoiding abrasives.
Avoid standing in a cracked acrylic bath until it’s fixed. Each time it flexes, the crack grows, and it can start to leak underneath.
Landlord and trade work in Oglet
Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover, saving last-minute replacements. Several plots can be done in one visit to keep costs down.
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.
How we price bath repair
Prices start from £95. Each job gets its own fixed quote. These are the things that affect it:
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- Whether we combine several jobs
- The colour and finish to match
- The size and number of damaged areas
Set against the cost of replacement, repairing normally costs far less, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. The quote lists exactly what you are paying for.
Send photos for a quote
Two or three clear photos are normally enough. It helps if you send:
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- The material, if you know it
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
Upload a picture of the damage and a wider shot of the whole item, with your L24 postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed price.
What we do, step by step
When we visit, the technician arrives at the agreed time, protects the room with dust sheets and masking and gets started. Expect it to take a few hours. We tidy up before we leave and let you know when you can use it again.
- First, we check the damage against your photos and agree the plan.
- Loose enamel, rust and dirt are removed so the repair can bond.
- 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.
Getting ready for the visit
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
- Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
- Ensure the room can be ventilated
Getting a price
A quote takes minutes to ask for: photograph the damage, then the entire bath, add your postcode and send them over. You will get a fixed price, not an estimate.

What else we do in Oglet
Repairing versus replacing in Oglet
Swapping a damaged bath for a new one normally involves a plumber, lifting out the old bath, making good the tiles and panel and disposing of the old one. A repair deals only with the damage in one visit. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. No two jobs are quite the same, so we price each one individually. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all make a difference, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.
