How we handle bath repair in Woodcote
A damaged bath doesn’t have to mean a new bathroom. Our technicians fill, shape and refinish the damage, mixing the colour on the day. We regularly repair cast iron enamel, roll-top & freestanding and pressed steel enamel, and common reasons people contact us are chips caused by builders and holes from dropped items.
The work is covered for a year after we finish. Just call us if there is a problem and we’ll sort it.

What else we do in Woodcote
How to look after the repair
It’s all simple stuff, just a few sensible habits:
- Cover the bath during DIY or decorating
- A dripping tap stains enamel, so fix it early
- Rinse the bath after use, especially in hard water areas
- 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.
Do not leave a chip on a steel or cast iron bath. Water gets to the metal and rust starts, turning a quick repair into a bigger one.
Can I fix it myself?
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it won’t stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.
Should you replace it?
Replacing a bath rarely stops at the bath: tiles along the rim usually crack when it comes out, a new panel is often needed, and the plumbing has to be disconnected and refitted. A repair skips all of it. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. There are no surprise extras on the day. What we quote from your pictures is what you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.

What bath repair costs
Prices start from £95. We charge the same across the UK, including Woodcote. What changes the price is:
- The type of damage
- Unusual colours or finishes
- The size and number of damaged areas
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
Instead of hourly rates, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and combining items on one visit brings it down.
Quotes from your photos
Before you send photos, a few simple things make all the difference:
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- What it’s made of, if you know
- Where you are, by postcode
- Natural light rather than flash
The quickest way to a price is to send a couple of photos using our quote form or call us. We will tell you honestly if a repair is the right fix.
Do you need bath repair in Woodcote?
Damage during fitting is very common. Tools, tiles and fittings get dropped into the bath, and the damage isn’t always spotted until later. Snagging repairs like these are a regular job for us.
Look out for any of the following:
- A chipped rim or side
- Deep scratches in acrylic
- Holes from dropped items
- Snagging damage from a refit

How the visit works
There is not much you need to do on the day. Let us in and show us the room, and we’ll take it from there. Most visits take a few hours, tidy-up included.
- First, the area is cleaned and any loose enamel or rust is removed.
- Next we fill the damage and sand it smooth and level.
- We mix the colour on the day to match your bath’s exact shade.
- Finish coats go on, then the repair is polished to blend in.
- Once it has cured, usually by the next day, the bath is ready to use.
Preparing for the visit
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
- Open a window if you can
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat

- Wear across the entire surface, which needs re-enamelling

If in doubt, send pictures and we will say what we think before booking.
