About bath repair in OX29

Small damage on a bath is worth repairing early. On steel and cast iron, exposed metal starts to rust, and on acrylic, a crack keeps spreading while the bath flexes. A repair stops both. Typical jobs include hairline or through cracks in acrylic and chips under the taps, across cast iron enamel, pressed steel enamel and acrylic.

When we visit, we arrive at the time we have agreed, cover the area with dust sheets and masking, and set to work. The job normally takes a morning or an afternoon. We clean up when we’re done and let you know when you can use it again.

  1. We protect the bath and the floor around it.
  2. The damaged area is cleaned, keyed and degreased.
  3. Filler goes in and is sanded flush once it has set.
  4. Colour and gloss are matched to the surrounding surface.
  5. We tidy up and tell you when the bath can be used, usually the day after.

Near you in Eynsham

We visit homes around The Jolly Sportsman Public House And Attached Outbuildings, Bartholomew School and Church of St Leonard and the streets around them. For rail, the closest station is Hanborough station, about 2.9 miles north of the centre. Further afield, we also cover the area around Radcliffe Infirmary (5.1 miles east) and Oxford Bus Museum (3 miles north). Green spaces nearby include Cumnor Hill and Hook Meadow and The Trap Grounds.

How to look after the repair

Aftercare is simple, and it makes a real difference:

  • Don’t leave a fresh chip for long
  • Protect the bath with a towel when doing jobs nearby
  • A dripping tap stains enamel, so fix it early
  • Ensure an acrylic bath is firm underfoot

For the first few days, keep heavy bottles off the repaired spot. After that, normal gentle cleaning is fine, avoiding abrasives.

Don’t leave a chip on a steel or cast iron bath. Once water reaches the metal, rust begins, and a rust spot is a bigger repair than a clean chip.

What we’re called out for in OX29

The usual cause is something heavy dropped into the bath, and building work is a common culprit. Cracks in acrylic have a different cause: poor support underneath, so the bath flexes when it’s full.

Look out for these signs:

  • Rust by the waste and overflow
  • Hairline or through cracks in acrylic
  • A hole punched through by something heavy
  • Chips under the taps

Should you replace it?

Cast iron baths in particular are worth repairing: they’re very heavy to remove, especially upstairs, and replacing like for like isn’t cheap. Repairing it leaves it where it is.

What your quote should include

  • Who will actually do the work
  • How long it needs to cure
  • What preparation is included
  • How the room is protected while they work

Work for landlords and builders

We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, putting right damage done during fitting. We’re CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.

Letting agents often send us pictures 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.

When a repair isn’t the answer

Some jobs aren’t right for a repair, including:

  • A whole bath that is dull or worn, where a full re-enamel is the better fix
  • A bath that flexes because its feet or cradle have failed (that needs fixing first)
  • Cracks in parts of an acrylic bath we can’t get to from below

Common questions in OX29

Do you repair coloured baths?

Yes. We mix the colour on the day to match, including older coloured suites.

What does bath repair cost?

Prices start from £95. The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from photos. You know the full cost before anything is booked.

What do you need from me?

Use the quote form or ring 0345 017 0787, and we will take it from there.

Can I get a quote without a visit?

Nearly always. We only ask to see it in person if the pictures cannot show what we need.

Is there a call-out fee?

Travel is included in the price, and we charge the same wherever you are.

Can a cracked acrylic bath be fixed?

Most of the time. The back of the crack is strengthened before the front is filled and refinished, so access behind the panel is important.

Will the price change on the day?

Your quote covers the damage in the photos. If there is more, we’ll tell you before starting.
