How the visit works
Visits start with a quick look at the job together. Next, we cover and mask everything nearby and we start. Allow two to three hours for most chips, and we’ll keep you posted as we go.
- We start by looking at the damage and confirming the plan with you.
- Loose enamel, rust and dirt are removed so the repair can bond.
- We build up the filler in layers, shaping it to the bath.
- We tint the finish by hand to match the bath.
- The repair is polished to the same gloss as the bath and left to cure.
How to prepare
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
- Ensure the room can be ventilated
- Keep a parking space free if you can
How to get a price
A quote takes minutes to ask for: photograph the damage, then the entire bath, include your postcode and send them over. You will get a fixed price, not an estimate.
Advice
How we handle bath repair in Oldland
You do not need a new bath because of a chip. Our technicians fill, shape and refinish the damage, with the colour mixed on site so the repair is hard to spot. We are often asked to fix rusty patches near the plughole and a chip where the taps sit, on pressed steel enamel, whirlpool & spa baths and roll-top & freestanding.
The work is covered for a year after we finish. If anything is not right, ring us and we will sort it.

DIY kit or professional repair?
If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, ensure the area is clean and completely dry, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.
Keeping it looking good
Looking after the surface is easy:
- Cover the bath during DIY or decorating
- Get any new chip repaired before it rusts
- Keep metal cans and razors off the surface
- Rinse the bath after use, especially in hard water areas
There’s nothing special to do after a repair, just sensible cleaning. Avoid bleach-based and gritty cleaners and give it a rinse after each bath.
Small chips are quick to repair. Left alone, they stain and can rust, so it’s worth getting them done early.
Oldland questions
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.
Can landlords book you?
Yes, often. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.
What if the damage is worse than the pictures show?
We stop, show you and agree any change before carrying on. Nothing extra is done without your say-so.
Can I get a quote without a visit?
Typically, yes. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed price.
Is a repair better than a new one?
In most cases, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. If it is not worth repairing, we will tell you.
Can a cracked acrylic bath be fixed?
Most of the time. The back of the crack is strengthened before the front is filled and refinished, so access behind the panel is important.
Is a bath repair durable?
It should, as long as the bath is firm and the area was prepared well. It’s covered by our one-year guarantee.
Do you charge for travel?
Travel is included in the price, with the same prices everywhere we work.

Repairs by material
Composite and resin
Composite baths are dense and solid, and often freestanding. Chips and scratches are filled and matched, just like other baths.
Pressed steel
Pressed steel is thinner and lighter, with an enamel finish like cast iron. Chips rust quickly on steel, especially around the waste, so repair chips early.
Landlords, agents and businesses in Oldland
We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, putting right damage done during fitting. We are CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.
We’re used to working with agents and managing companies. Send the address, pictures and access details and we’ll arrange it.
Honest limits
To be straight with you, there are a few things a repair will not fix:
- Metal that has corroded all the way through
- A bath that flexes because its feet or cradle have failed (that needs fixing first)
- Water coming from the waste or taps rather than the bath
Not sure? Send pictures and we’ll give you a straight answer before you book.
Surfaces we repair
- Roll-top & freestanding
- Whirlpool & spa baths
- Cast iron enamel
- Pressed steel enamel
- Acrylic
Why repair rather than replace?
Cast iron baths especially are worth keeping: getting one out, particularly from an upstairs bathroom, is a big job, and a like-for-like replacement can be expensive. A repair keeps it in place. Our bath repair starts from £95. The price reflects the work involved, not where you live. The full price is agreed before booking.
Why book with us
- Everything repaired in place
- One price list for the entire UK
- We come to you, anywhere in the UK
- Free fixed quotes from pictures

When to call us in Oldland
Dropped items cause the majority of chips, and a lot happen during bathroom refits. Cracks in acrylic have a different cause: poor support underneath, so the bath flexes when it’s full.
It’s worth getting a quote if you see:
- A chipped rim or side
- Impact holes in acrylic
- Damage done while the bathroom was being fitted
- A cracked acrylic bath
