Bath repair at your home in Oxenpill
Most bath damage, from chips and cracks to rust spots and holes, is repaired in place. There’s no plumbing to disconnect, the tiles are not touched, and the repaired area is colour matched so it blends in. Typical jobs include scuffs and scratches in the surface and damage done while the bathroom was being fitted, across acrylic, cast iron enamel and roll-top & freestanding.
Whatever the size of the job, it’s backed by a one-year guarantee in Oxenpill and across Somerset.

- Chips on the rim or sides
- An old repair that has yellowed or come loose
- Chips caused by builders
- Holes from dropped items

Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £95. You will know the full cost before booking. We take into account:
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- Unusual colours or finishes
- Doing more than one item at once
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
What it costs depends on how much damage there is and what kind, what it’s made of and how many items we do on one visit. We give a fixed price from your pictures, so you know the cost before booking.
How to get a fixed quote
The better the photos, the more accurate the price. Here’s what helps:
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- Natural light rather than flash
- One picture of the whole bath
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
Upload pictures of the damage and one of the whole item, with your BA6 postcode, and we’ll come back with a fixed quote.
Repairs by material
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 early repairs matter.
Composite and resin
Stone resin and composite baths are heavy and solid, and frequently freestanding. Chips and scratches are filled and matched, just like other baths.
When we would advise against a repair
We will always be straight with you, so here’s what a repair cannot fix:
- Cracks in parts of an acrylic bath we cannot get to from below
- Metal that has corroded all the way through
- Leaking fittings, which need a plumber
Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly before you book.
What we work on
- Acrylic
- Pressed steel enamel
- Cast iron enamel
- Whirlpool & spa baths
- Roll-top & freestanding
Aftercare tips
Nothing complicated is needed, just a few sensible habits:
- Rinse the bath after use, especially in hard water areas
- Fix dripping taps early to stop staining and limescale
- If an acrylic bath flexes, have its feet adjusted
- Keep metal cans and razors off the surface
Keep metal objects like razors and cans off the surface, as they can leave rust marks. A dripping tap should be fixed early, too.
Small chips are quick to repair. Left alone, they stain and can rust, so early repair saves time and money.

All of BA6 is covered. From Down's Orchard, Kirlegate and Oxenpill or anywhere nearby, a technician can come to you.

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 doesn’t stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is typically the cheaper route.

No. Our quotes include travel, with the same prices everywhere we work.
Is my repair covered?
Every repair comes with a one-year guarantee. We’ll explain what it covers when we quote.
The process
The work is clean and fairly quiet, so you can stay at home while we’re there. Protection goes down first, then the work takes a few hours. At the end we talk you through the curing time and the aftercare.
- Dust sheets and masking go down around the bath.
- We clean, key and degrease the damage, and any rust is treated.
- We fill it, let it set, then sand it flush.
- Colour and gloss are matched to the surrounding surface.
- We clear up and give you the curing time, normally until the next day.
Preparing for the visit
- Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
- Tell us about parking, stairs or access
How to get a price
Pricing is simple: take a close-up of the damage and a photo from further back, send them over with your postcode, and you’ll get a fixed price back. There is no charge for the quote and no obligation.
