How we handle bath repair in Upper Arncott
A repair fixes just the damaged area and blends it into the rest of the bath, which costs far less than replacing a fitted bath and the tiles around it. You can typically use the bath the next day. Whether it’s rusty patches near the plughole and damage beneath the taps, we can help, on roll-top & freestanding, acrylic and cast iron enamel alike.
All our work comes with our one-year guarantee.

The process
When we visit, we arrive at the time we have agreed, cover the area with dust sheets and masking, and set to work. Expect it to take a few hours, depending on the damage. We clean up when we are done and tell you when it’s ready to use.
- Dust sheets and masking go down around the bath.
- The damaged area is cleaned, keyed and degreased.
- Filler goes in and is sanded flush once it has set.
- We match both the colour and the shine.
- We tidy up and tell you when the bath can be used, typically the next day.
Before we arrive
- Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
- Open a window if you can
- Keep a parking space free if you can
Ask for a price
You do not need a survey visit. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we will come back to you with a fixed figure.

How to look after the repair
Once the work has cured, treat it gently:
- Rinse the bath after use, especially in hard water areas
- Avoid scourers, wire wool and gritty cream cleaners
- If an acrylic bath flexes, have its feet adjusted
- Don’t leave razors or cans standing in the bath
Treat the repaired area like the rest of the bath: a soft cloth and washing-up liquid is all it needs. Avoid scourers and gritty cream cleaners.
Small chips are quick to repair. Left alone, they stain and can rust, so early repair saves time and money.
Upper Arncott questions
Which areas do you work in?
We cover the entire UK, including Upper Arncott and the rest of Oxfordshire. Send your postcode with your photos and we’ll offer you dates.
What happens once I’ve sent photos?
You get a fixed quote and available dates. If we need another angle, we’ll ask.
What information do you need?
Some photos, your postcode and how to reach you. On the day, access to the room.
What if the damage is worse than the photos show?
We stop, show you and agree any change before carrying on. Nothing extra is done without your say-so.
Is it safe with children and pets around?
Yes, as long as they stay out of the room we’re working in. We will tell you when the room can be used again.
Can tenants book a repair?
Of course. Ask your landlord first, and we can send them the quote if that helps.
Can landlords book you?
Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as householders across Oxfordshire.
Can you match an avocado or pink bath?
Yes. We mix the colour on the day to match, including pastel and older colours.
Honest limits
Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair won’t do:
- Metal that has corroded all the way through
- Flexing caused by a failed cradle or loose feet
- Wear across the whole surface, which needs re-enamelling
Send us photos and we will tell you honestly before booking.
Materials we repair
- Cast iron enamel
- Acrylic
- Whirlpool & spa baths
- Roll-top & freestanding
- Pressed steel enamel
Work for landlords and builders
We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out pictures. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.
We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Just send pictures, the address and how to get access and we will handle the rest.
Should I try a DIY kit first?
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 normally cheaper.
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it does not stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.

What bath repair costs
Prices start from £95. Each job gets its own fixed quote. These are the things that affect it:
- The material
- How many items we do on one visit
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- The size and number of damaged areas
The price reflects the work involved, not where you live. You’ll see the full price before you book, with nothing added on the day.
Getting a price from photos
Photographing the damage takes a minute. Try to send:
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- The material, if you know it
- One picture of the entire bath
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us pictures through the quote form. With one close-up and one wider picture, we can give you a fixed price.
Repair or replace in Upper Arncott?
Replacing a bath rarely stops at the bath: tiles along the rim typically crack when it comes out, the panel may not fit the new one, and a plumber has to disconnect and reconnect everything. Repairing the damage avoids all of that. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Every job is a little different, so we price each one individually. The size and type of damage, the material and access all make a difference, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.
