Bath repair across Oldhall Green and nearby, typically in one visit and guaranteed for a year.
- Repairs from £95
- A hole punched through by something heavy
- Cracks in an acrylic bath
Should I try a DIY kit first?
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair will not last.
Bath repair in Oldhall Green without replacing anything
A repair fixes just the damaged area and blends it into the rest of the bath, which costs far less than replacing a fitted bath and the tiles around it. You can typically use the bath the following day. Typical jobs include rust spots around the plughole and deep scratches in acrylic, across acrylic, cast iron enamel and roll-top & freestanding.
We guarantee the work for a year. If something is not right in that time, we come back and put it right.

How to look after the repair
Most damage we see is avoidable. These habits help:
- Do not leave a fresh chip for long
- Protect the bath with a towel when doing jobs nearby
- Get a dripping tap fixed promptly
- Give the bath a quick rinse after use
In the first few days, avoid putting weight or bottles on the repair. After that, normal gentle cleaning is fine, avoiding abrasives.
Tape over a fresh chip or crack until it’s repaired, so water can’t get in. Remove it before the repair.
Oldhall Green: your questions answered
Do you come to Oldhall Green?
We do. Technicians travel to Oldhall Green from across the region, with no extra charge for travel.
Can you fix rust around the plughole?
Yes, it’s one of the most common repairs we do. The rust is cut back to clean metal and sealed before we fill and finish it.
Is there a call-out fee?
Travel is included in the price, and we charge the same wherever you are.
Are you a vetted contractor?
Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.
Do the materials smell?
There can be some smell while we work. It clears as the materials cure.
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
Yes. Ask your landlord first, and we can send them the quote if that helps.
How do I book?
Photos of the damage, a picture of the whole bath and your postcode. After that, we just agree a date.
Is it safe with children and pets around?
Keep pets and children away from the work area on the day.
What a repair can’t fix
Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair cannot fix:
- A bath that moves underfoot, until its support is fixed
- Cracks in parts of an acrylic bath we can’t get to from below
- Metal that has corroded all the way through
Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly before you book.

How it works
Here’s how a visit normally runs: we arrive on time, protect everything around the work area, do the job and clear up. Plan for a few hours. Before leaving, we tell you when it can be used and how to look after it.
- 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 tint the finish on the day to suit your bath’s shade of white or colour.
- We apply the finish coats and polish the repair so it blends in.
- We leave it to cure; you can generally use the bath the day after.
How to prepare
- Point us to the nearest place to park
- Let us know which floor the room is on
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access

Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £95. We price every job individually, from your photos. What matters most is:
- What kind of damage it is
- How easy the damage is to reach
- The size and number of damaged areas
- The material
We do not add extras on the day. What we quote from your photos is what you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.
How to get a fixed quote
Most quotes are done from photos alone. To make it quick:
- A photo taken from further back
- Where you are, by postcode
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- Any details about the material
Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us photos through the quote form. With one close-up and one wider picture, we can price the job.

If you manage property in Oldhall Green, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Send photos for each one and we will come back with a combined price.
Different materials, different repairs
Composite and resin
Composite baths are dense and solid. Chips and scratches are filled and matched, just like other baths.
Cast iron
A cast iron bath is heavy enough that most people never want to move it. The enamel is the part that wears or chips, and that is the part we put right.
