About our bath repair in Tadmarton

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. If you are dealing with hairline or through cracks in acrylic and damage done while the bathroom was being fitted, we can help.

We guarantee the work for a year. If there’s a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it.

Different materials, different repairs

Composite and resin

Composite baths are dense and solid, and often freestanding. Chips and scratches can be filled and colour-matched, in much the same way.

Acrylic

An acrylic bath is a moulded sheet strengthened from below. They don’t rust, but they can crack, scratch or be holed, and cracks need support from behind to stay fixed.

What we do, step by step

Your technician turns up when we said we would, introduces themselves and checks the damage against your pictures first. Dust sheets and masking tape go down before we open a single tin. Most visits take two to three hours for most chips, and the room is left clean and tidy.

  1. First, we check the damage against your pictures and agree the plan.
  2. Any rust and loose material comes out, and the area is degreased.
  3. The damage is filled in layers and shaped to the curve of the bath.
  4. The colour is tinted by hand until it matches.
  5. Finally, it’s polished to match the shine and left to cure.

Preparing for the visit

  • Let us know about parking or access
  • Open a window if you can
  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing

What bath repair costs

Prices start from £95. A fixed quote means you know the cost before booking. We take into account:

  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • The colour and finish to match
  • Access to the area
  • How many items we do on one visit

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 quote from your pictures, so there are no surprises on the day.

Send pictures for a quote

Most quotes are done from photos alone. To make it quick:

  • Something in shot to show the size
  • A wider photo showing the entire bath
  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • One sharp close-up of the damage

A quote takes minutes to ask for: take one close-up and one wider shot of the bath, include your postcode and send them to us. What comes back is a fixed quote, not a guess.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, and the work is guaranteed.

It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.

Keeping it looking good

How the surface is treated afterwards matters. Here’s what we suggest:

  • Give the bath a quick rinse after use
  • A dripping tap stains enamel, so fix it early
  • Ensure an acrylic bath is firm underfoot
  • Have new chips seen to early

Keep metal objects like razors and cans off the surface, because they can mark the enamel. A dripping tap should be fixed early, too.

A small chip is a quick job. Leave them and they collect dirt, stain and, on metal baths, rust, so it’s worth getting them done early.

Landlord and trade work in Tadmarton

For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover, so there is no need to replace a damaged item at the last minute. Several plots can be done in one visit.

We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams in Oxfordshire and across the UK. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which is easier on the people living there.

What we’re called out for in Tadmarton

Nearly all the chips we see start with something being dropped: bottles, shower heads, tiles and tools. On enamelled baths, any chip down to the metal lets water in, and rust follows.

You may need us if you’ve spotted any of these:

  • A cracked acrylic bath
  • Damage done while the bathroom was being fitted
  • Impact holes in acrylic
  • Rust by the waste and overflow

10 questions to ask before you book

Tadmarton questions

Are you a vetted contractor?

Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.

Will it make a mess?

We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and we clean up when we have finished.

It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?

Normally, yes. The old repair comes out first, so mention it when you send photos.

How invisible is a bath repair?

On a bath in good condition, a colour matched repair is very hard to spot. On worn enamel, it can look shinier than the rest.

How do I get a price for bath repair in Tadmarton?

Prices start from £95. Every job gets a fixed price from your pictures. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo and your postcode.

Do you repair coloured baths?

Yes. We mix the colour on the day to match, including pastel and older colours.

How quickly can you book me in?

It depends on the time of year and where you are. We’ll offer you dates when we send your quote.

Do you charge for travel?

There’s no separate call-out charge. Your fixed price includes everything.

Honest limits

It helps to know what we can’t do:

  • Acrylic cracks with no access behind them
  • A bath worn all over, where resurfacing makes more sense
  • A steel bath rusted through

If in doubt, send photos and we will say what we think before you book.
