Bath repair in Oscroft without replacing anything
We repair enamelled steel, cast iron and acrylic baths. Each material is repaired a little differently: rust is treated on metal baths, while cracks in acrylic are reinforced from underneath. We regularly repair pressed steel enamel, whirlpool & spa baths and cast iron enamel, and the jobs we see most are chips caused by builders and holes from dropped items.
We stand behind the work with a one-year guarantee, so you’re covered after the visit.

Materials and what they mean for the repair
Pressed steel
Steel baths are lighter than cast iron, but have a similar enamel surface. Chips rust quickly on steel, especially around the waste, so repair chips early.
Cast iron
Cast iron baths are so heavy that repairing in place makes obvious sense. The enamel is the part that wears or chips, and that is what we repair.

Should you replace it?
For damage in one or two places, a repair is the obvious choice. It costs far less than a new bath plus fitting, it takes one visit, and nothing else in the room changes. Prices start from £95. It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

- One-year guarantee on every repair
- Dust sheets down, tidy finish
- CHAS and Constructionline accredited

What bath repair costs
Prices start from £95. Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we look at:
- The material and finish
- How easy the damage is to reach
- The size and number of damaged areas
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
The price depends on the type and amount of damage, what it’s made of and how many items we do on one visit. You get a fixed price from your photos, so there are no surprises on the day.
Send pictures for a quote
Phone photos are fine. Make sure they show:
- A photo taken from further back
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
Getting a price is easy: take a close-up of the damage and a photo from further back, send them over with your postcode, and you will get a fixed price back. Quotes are free and you are under no obligation.
What a repair can’t fix
We’d rather lose a job than do one that will not last, so here’s what a repair can’t put right:
- Flexing caused by a failed cradle or loose feet
- Wear across the whole surface, which needs re-enamelling
- Rust that has eaten right through a steel bath
If in doubt, send photos and we’ll say what we think before you book.
Materials we repair

FAQs for Oscroft
Do I need to be at home?
Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. You don’t need to watch us work.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Yes, and it’s often cheaper. Just add the extra items to your pictures and you’ll get one combined price.
I rent my home. Can I book you?
Yes, but check with your landlord or agent first. Landlords are often glad to have it sorted before the end of a tenancy.
What do you need from me?
Photos of the damage, a picture of the entire bath and your postcode. After that, we just agree a date.
Will the repair show?
The goal is a repair that blends in. How well it disappears depends on the condition of the rest of the bath.
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
Generally, yes. Let us know what was used before.
Can you price it without visiting?
In nearly every case. We only ask to see it in person if the pictures cannot show what we need.
Do you hold any accreditations?
Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.
Do you need bath repair in Oscroft?
Many chips happen while the bathroom is being fitted. Tradespeople drop tools and tiles into the bath, and the damage is not always spotted until later. We repair snagging damage like this regularly.
Look out for any of the following:
- Deep scratches in acrylic
- Chips on the rim or sides
- Damage done while the bathroom was being fitted
- A failed DIY repair that’s discoloured or lifting
Questions to ask before you book
- How long the guarantee is and what it covers
- How long it needs to cure
- What happens if the damage is worse than the photos show
- Who turns up on the day

Keeping it looking good
Most damage we see is avoidable. A few tips:
- Clean with warm water and a mild detergent
- Don’t scrub with anything abrasive
- Rinse it down after each bath
- Get any new chip repaired before it rusts
Look after the repair the same way as the bath: a soft cloth and washing-up liquid is all it needs. Keep scouring pads and gritty cleaners away from it.
Rust spreads under enamel faster than most people expect. A chip the size of a fingernail can become a much larger patch if it’s left for months, so it pays to deal with it early.
What happens on the day
Nothing needs to be moved out of the room. Everything we use comes in the van with us, lay protective sheets and get going once we’ve agreed what we’re doing. Most jobs take a few hours, and you’re welcome to carry on with your day while we work.
- First, the area is cleaned and any loose enamel or rust is removed.
- The chip or crack is filled, then sanded level with the bath.
- The colour is mixed on the spot to match your bath.
- Finish coats go on, then the repair is polished to blend in.
- We leave it to cure; you can generally use the bath the following day.
Before we arrive
- Let us know if it has been repaired before
- Let us know about parking or access
- Keep a parking space free if you can
