Bath repair in Stadhampton without replacing anything

Whether your bath is steel, cast iron or acrylic, we can repair it. Each material is repaired a little differently: rust is treated on metal baths, while cracks in acrylic are reinforced from underneath. We are frequently asked to fix a chipped rim or side and damage done while the bathroom was being fitted, on pressed steel enamel, cast iron enamel and whirlpool & spa baths.

All our work comes with a one-year guarantee, wherever you are in Oxfordshire.

How we price bath repair

Repairs from £95. You will not pay by the hour. The price depends on:

  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • How much damage there is
  • The colour and finish to match
  • How many items we do on one visit

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. You get a fixed quote from your pictures, so you know the cost before you book.

Getting a price from pictures

You can take the pictures on your phone, there’s no need for anything special. Make sure they show:

  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • The material, if you know it
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • A photo taken from further back

Send us photos of the damage and a wider shot of the whole item, with your OX44 postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed price.

What a repair can’t fix

We would rather lose a job than do one that will not last, so here’s what a repair can’t put right:

  • Rust that has eaten right through a steel bath
  • A bath that moves underfoot, until its support is fixed
  • Leaks from the waste or overflow fittings (a plumber’s job)

If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think.

Surfaces we repair

  • Roll-top & freestanding
  • Pressed steel enamel
  • Acrylic
  • Cast iron enamel
  • Whirlpool & spa baths

Stadhampton questions

How soon can you come?

Your quote comes with available dates. If it’s urgent, say so and we’ll do what we can.

How long does the repair take to cure?

Generally within a day, though it depends on what we have done.

What areas do you cover?

The entire UK, including all of Oxfordshire. Just include your postcode and we will confirm dates.

Is it OK to have pets in the house?

Just keep them out of the work area. We will let you know when it’s safe to use again.

What information do you need?

Some photos, your postcode and how to reach you. On the day, we only need access to the room.

Can landlords book you?

We do, regularly. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.

What happens if you find more damage?

If we find something the photos didn’t show, we explain it first. You decide whether to go ahead.

Something went through my bath. Can it be fixed?

In most cases. Send us a photo of the hole and one from under the bath if you can.

How the visit works

It’s a tidy, low-fuss visit. We agree the arrival time in advance, protect the area, then carry out the work, which normally takes two to three hours for most chips. If we find something your photos didn’t show, we’ll explain it before carrying on.

  1. Dust sheets and masking go down around the bath.
  2. We clean, key and degrease the damage, and any rust is treated.
  3. We fill it, let it set, then sand it flush.
  4. We match both the colour and the shine.
  5. We tidy up and tell you when the bath can be used, normally the day after.

Preparing for the visit

  • Have a window or extractor fan available
  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children

Advice

For landlords and businesses

If you manage property in Stadhampton, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Send photos for each one and we will come back with a combined price.

Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover, so there is no need to replace a damaged item at the last minute. We can visit several plots in one trip.

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Acrylic

Acrylic is light and warm to the touch, but it needs firm support underneath. Cracks are strengthened from behind before the front is finished.

Composite and resin

Stone resin and composite baths are heavy and solid, and frequently freestanding. Chips and scratches can be filled and colour-matched, just like other baths.

Aftercare tips

Looking after the surface is easy:

  • Clean with warm water and a mild detergent
  • Get any new chip repaired before it rusts
  • A dripping tap stains enamel, so fix it early
  • Rinse it down after each bath

There’s nothing special to do after a repair, beyond gentle cleaning. Skip bleach and gritty creams.

Do not leave a chip on a steel or cast iron bath. Water gets to the metal and rust starts, and a rust spot is a bigger repair than a clean chip.

DIY kit or professional repair?

For a hairline mark somewhere you will never see, a kit may be enough. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, a professional repair is worth it.

It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is usually cheaper.

Repair or replace: which is better?

Replacing a fitted bath usually means a plumber, lifting out the old bath, making good the tiles and panel and getting rid of the old bath. A repair deals only with the damage in one visit. Our bath repair starts from £95. Every job is a little different, so we price each one individually. The size and type of damage, the material and access all play a part, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.
