Bath repair in Upper Oddington without replacing anything
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. Most baths can be used again the following day. If you are dealing with cracks in an acrylic bath and chips on the rim or sides, we can help, on whirlpool & spa baths, cast iron enamel and acrylic alike.
Every repair comes with our one-year guarantee, wherever you are in Gloucestershire.

Work for landlords and builders

We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Upper Oddington as well as householders. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it normally costs far less than a refit.
Common problems we fix in Upper Oddington
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. Snagging repairs like these are a regular job for us.
The most common problems we are called about are:
- A failed DIY repair that’s discoloured or lifting
- Scratches you can feel with a fingernail
- Hairline or through cracks in acrylic
- Rusty patches near the plughole

- 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, normally the day after.
Before we arrive
- Tell us about parking, stairs or access
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area

Related advice
Why repair rather than replace?
Replacing a fitted bath normally involves a plumber, removing the old bath, making good the tiles and panel and disposing of the old one. Repairing it fixes just the damaged area in a single visit. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Instead of hourly rates, we price the entire job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and combining items on one visit brings it down.
Why Upper Oddington clients choose us

DIY repairs versus a professional job
A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
When we’d advise against a repair
We won’t take on work that will not last, so here’s what a repair can’t put right:
- Leaking fittings, which need a plumber
- Metal that has corroded all the way through
- Cracks in acrylic we cannot reach from underneath
Send us photos and we will tell you honestly.
Surfaces we repair
- Pressed steel enamel
- Acrylic
- Cast iron enamel
- Roll-top & freestanding
- Whirlpool & spa baths
Looking after it afterwards
A little care keeps the finish looking good. Our advice:
- Get a dripping tap fixed promptly
- Give the bath a quick rinse after use
- Put a towel in the bath if you are working above it
- Ensure an acrylic bath is firm underfoot
A repaired bath needs no special treatment, beyond gentle cleaning. Skip bleach and gritty creams and give it a rinse after each bath.
If an acrylic bath has a crack, stop showering in it until it’s repaired. Each time it flexes, the crack grows, and water can get through to the floor below.
Different materials, different repairs
Acrylic
An acrylic bath is a moulded sheet strengthened from below. They do not rust, but they can crack, scratch or be holed, and cracks need support from behind to stay fixed.
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’s what we repair.
Common questions in Upper Oddington
When can you do it?
That depends on our diary for your area. Send photos with your postcode and we will reply with the earliest dates.
Can you quote from pictures?
Nearly always. We only ask to see it in person if the photos cannot show what we need.
Do you work for landlords and businesses?
Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as homeowners across Gloucestershire.
Does someone need to be in?
Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time that suits you.
How do I book?
A close-up, a wider photo and your postcode. After that, we just agree a date.
Is repairing better than replacing?
Generally, if the item is otherwise sound. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. If replacing would be better, we will say so.
Can you repair a hole in a bath?
Usually, yes, if we can reach behind it. We back the hole, fill it and refinish the surface.
Can you repair a chip on a coloured bath?
Yes. The colour is mixed on site to suit your bath, including pastel and older colours.
