Should I try a DIY kit first?
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it will not stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.
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 usually the cheaper route.
Bath repair in Oldfield, done in place
Repairing baths is what we do most. A chip by the taps, a crack in the base and a rust spot by the plughole are all repaired in place, normally in one visit. Our repair technicians work on pressed steel enamel, acrylic and roll-top & freestanding, and the jobs we see most are a chip where the taps sit and rust spots around the plughole.
All our work comes with a one-year guarantee, wherever you are in Worcestershire.

Signs you need bath repair in Oldfield
Nearly all the chips we see start with something being dropped: bottles, shower heads, tiles and tools. On steel and cast iron baths, a chip that reaches the metal will start to rust.
Customers normally contact us about:
- Damage beneath the taps
- Hairline or through cracks in acrylic
- A failed DIY repair that is discoloured or lifting
- Chips on the rim or sides

How to look after the repair
Good habits make a big difference to how long a repair lasts:
- Don’t scrub with anything abrasive
- A dripping tap stains enamel, so fix it early
- Get any new chip repaired before it rusts
- Check that an acrylic bath does not move when you stand in it
Do not leave razors, cans or hair grips in the bath, because they can mark the enamel. A dripping tap should be fixed early, too.
Until we visit, a strip of waterproof tape over the damage helps, to keep water out. Take it off before we arrive.
Your questions about bath repair in Oldfield
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
Generally, when the rest is in good condition. A repair avoids removal and making good. If replacing would be better, we’ll say so.
Can you fix rust around the plughole?
Yes, very often. We take it back to sound metal, seal it, fill it and match the colour.
Can you repair a chip on a coloured bath?
Yes, coloured baths are no problem. We tint the finish to your bath on site.
Will there be a smell?
There can be some smell while we work. It clears as the materials cure.
Can a cracked acrylic bath be fixed?
Typically, yes, as long as we can get to the back of the crack to support it. Check under the bath panel, or send us a photo.
Are you a vetted contractor?
We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.
Is there a guarantee?
Yes, for a year. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.
Will you leave a mess?
No. The work area is masked and covered, and we leave the room clean.
Repairs by material
Pressed steel
Pressed steel is thinner and lighter, with an enamel finish like cast iron. Chips rust quickly on steel, particularly by the plughole, so repair chips early.
Acrylic
An acrylic bath is a moulded sheet strengthened from below. They don’t rust, but they can crack, scratch or be holed, and cracks need support from behind to stay fixed.
When a repair isn’t the answer
Some jobs aren’t right for a repair, including:
- Water coming from the waste or taps rather than the bath
- Wear across the entire surface, which needs re-enamelling
- A bath that moves underfoot, until its support is fixed
If in doubt, send photos and we’ll say what we think before booking.

What affects the price in Oldfield
Prices start from £95. We price every job individually, from your pictures. What matters most is:
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- How many items we do on one visit
- What the surface is made of
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
What it costs depends on the type and amount of damage, the material and how many items we do on one visit. We give a fixed quote from your photos, so there are no surprises on the day.
Getting a price from photos
Before you send pictures, a few simple things make all the difference:
- Something in shot to show the size
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
Send us a photo of the damage and a wider shot of the whole item, with your WR9 postcode, and we’ll come back with a fixed quote.

How it works
There is not much you need to do on the day. Show us the job, point us to the room, and we’ll get on with it. The job generally runs to a few hours, depending on the damage.
- 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 apply the finish coats and polish the repair so it blends in.
- Once it has cured, usually by the next day, the bath is ready to use.
Preparing for the visit
- Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
- Point us to the nearest place to park
- Have a window or extractor fan available
