About bath repair in OX2
Chips, cracks, rust spots and small holes is repaired in place. Nothing is unplumbed, your tiles stay as they are, and the finish is matched to the rest of the bath. We regularly repair roll-top & freestanding, pressed steel enamel and whirlpool & spa baths, and the jobs we see most are rust by the waste and overflow and scratches you can feel with a fingernail.
When we visit, we arrive at the time we’ve agreed, cover the area with dust sheets and masking, and set to work. The job typically takes a morning or an afternoon. 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.
- We clean, key and degrease the damage, and any rust is treated.
- Filler goes in and is sanded flush once it has set.
- Colour and gloss are matched to the surrounding surface.
- We tidy up and tell you when the bath can be used, generally the following day.
Cost
Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

Why repair rather than replace?
People frequently assume a cracked or chipped bath has to come out. In most cases it does not: a proper repair gives it years more use, and costs far less than the disruption of a replacement.

Looking after it afterwards
Nothing complicated is needed:
- Get a dripping tap fixed promptly
- Rinse the bath after use, especially in hard water areas
- Stick to mild cleaners and a soft cloth
- Protect the bath with a towel when doing jobs nearby
For the first few days, keep heavy bottles off the repaired spot. After that, normal gentle cleaning is fine, avoiding abrasives.
If water is getting through a crack, stop using the bath. Leaks under a bath can damage floors and ceilings.
When a repair isn’t the answer
A repair isn’t right for every job, including:
- A bath that moves underfoot, until its support is fixed
- Water coming from the waste or taps rather than the bath
- Metal that has corroded all the way through
Common problems we fix in OX2
Dropped items cause the majority of chips, and a lot happen during bathroom refits. Acrylic baths crack for a different reason: poor support underneath, so the bath flexes when it’s full.
You may need us if you’ve spotted:
- Impact holes in acrylic
- Rust by the waste and overflow
- Deep scratches in acrylic
- Snagging damage from a refit
Materials and what they mean for the repair
Pressed steel
Pressed steel is thinner and lighter, with an enamel finish like cast iron. Chips rust quickly on steel, especially around the waste, so repair chips early.
Acrylic
Acrylic is light and warm to the touch, but it needs firm support underneath. Cracks are strengthened from behind before the front is finished.
