Bath repair in Woodmancote, done in place
Whatever has happened to the bath, we aim for the same result: a smooth, solid repair that blends in. Proper preparation, careful filling and shaping, then colour and gloss matching so it’s level with the surrounding surface. Common call-outs are for a kit repair that didn’t last and a hole punched through by something heavy, on roll-top & freestanding, pressed steel enamel and cast iron enamel.
We guarantee the work for a year. If something isn’t right in that time, we come back and put it right.

DIY kit or professional repair?
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair won’t last.
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.
Repair or replace in Woodmancote?
A new bath brings a chain of other jobs: tiles along the rim typically crack when it comes out, the panel may not fit the new one, and the plumbing has to be disconnected and refitted. A repair skips all of it. Our bath repair starts from £95. There are no surprise extras on the day. The price we quote from your pictures is the price you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.
What you get with us
- One visit for most repairs
- A fixed quote before booking
- Colours mixed by hand to suit your surface
- No need to remove anything
Read our prices page and resurfacing vs replacement cost guide.
What we do, step by step
Once we’re through the door, we keep the work contained to the one room. We mask off everything nearby, the job takes two to three hours for most chips, depending on what we find, and we finish by cleaning up and talking you through the result.
- We clean the area and remove any loose enamel or rust.
- Next we fill the damage and sand it smooth and level.
- We tint the finish on the day to suit your bath’s shade of white or colour.
- Finish coats go on, then the repair is polished to blend in.
- Once it has cured, usually by the following day, the bath is ready to use.
How to prepare
- Let us know about parking or access
- Point us to the nearest place to park
- Make sure the room can be ventilated

Advice
What we cannot put right
Not everything can be repaired, and we’ll tell you before we start. We cannot fix:
- Leaks from the waste or overflow fittings (a plumber’s job)
- Flexing caused by a failed cradle or loose feet
- Cracks in acrylic we cannot reach from underneath
If in doubt, send photos and we will say what we think before booking.
Surfaces we repair
- Acrylic
- Pressed steel enamel
- Whirlpool & spa baths
- Roll-top & freestanding
- Cast iron enamel
For landlords and businesses
Letting agents frequently send us photos straight from the inventory. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.
Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.
How we price bath repair
Prices start from £95. There’s no area surcharge for Woodmancote. The price reflects:
- Unusual colours or finishes
- The size and number of damaged areas
- How easy the damage is to reach
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Send photos and we’ll give you the exact figure.
Send pictures for a quote
You can take the pictures on your phone. Just ensure we can see:
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- Any details about the material
- One picture of the entire bath
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
The quickest way to a price is to send a couple of pictures through our quote form or ring us. We will say immediately if a repair is the right fix.

Different materials, different repairs
Acrylic
Acrylic is light and warm to the touch, but it relies on good support. Cracks are strengthened from behind before the front is finished.
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 is the part we put right.

How to care for the repair
Simple care helps the repair last. Our advice:
- Give the bath a quick rinse after use
- Fix dripping taps early to stop staining and limescale
- Cover the bath during DIY or decorating
- Avoid scourers, wire wool and gritty cream cleaners
Use gentle, non-abrasive cleaners and try not to drop heavy bottles on the repair. Get any new chip seen to quickly, before rust sets in.
If water is getting through a crack, stop using the bath until it’s repaired. Water under the bath can damage the floor and the ceiling below.
