Our bath repair service in OX49
A damaged bath doesn’t have to mean a new bathroom. Our repair technicians fill, shape and refinish the damage, with the colour mixed on site so the repair is hard to spot. Typical jobs include a failed DIY repair that’s discoloured or lifting and hairline or through cracks in acrylic, on whirlpool & spa baths, roll-top & freestanding and cast iron enamel.
Nothing needs to be moved out of the room beforehand. We bring everything we need with us, lay protective sheets and start once you are happy with the plan. Most jobs take a few hours, and you’re welcome to carry on with your day while we work.
- First, we check the damage against your pictures and agree the plan.
- Any rust and loose material comes out, and the area is degreased.
- We build up the filler in layers, shaping it to the bath.
- The colour is tinted by hand until it matches.
- The repair is polished to the same gloss as the bath and left to cure.
Cost
Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. The price depends on the type and amount of damage, the material and how many jobs we combine into one visit. We give a fixed price from your photos, so there are no surprises on the day.

- Every repair guaranteed for a year

Ask for a price
You do not need a survey visit. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we will come back to you with a fixed figure.
Around Watlington
Our clients here include homes close to Royal Oak pub, St Mary's Church and Icknield Community College, among other places. Nearby too are Watlington Primary School (under half a mile north) and Church of St Leonard (less than half a mile north-west). Not far away are Aston Rowant NNR and Bald Hill.
Looking after it afterwards
Looking after the surface is easy, and it makes a real difference:
- Keep metal cans and razors off the surface
- Use a soft cloth and washing-up liquid for everyday cleaning
- Give the bath a quick rinse after use
- Do not scrub with anything abrasive
Do not leave razors, cans or hair grips in the bath, because they can mark the enamel. And fix dripping taps promptly.
Stop using the bath if a crack lets water through until it’s repaired. Leaks under a bath can damage floors and ceilings.
How the damage happens
Rust usually starts where water sits, by the plughole, beneath dripping taps or in an unrepaired chip. Water on bare metal causes rust that creeps under the surrounding enamel.
It’s worth getting a quote if you see:
- A failed DIY repair that is discoloured or lifting
- Rust spots around the plughole
- Chips along the edge of the bath
- Impact holes in acrylic
How we price bath repair
Repairs from £95. There is no charge for travel to OX49. The price depends on:
- How hard the colour is to match
- The type of damage
- Whether we combine several jobs
- How much damage there is
A repair is priced on what needs doing, not your postcode. The full price is agreed before you book, with nothing added on the day.
Quotes from your pictures
Good photos mean an accurate price. Here’s what helps:
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- Where you are, by postcode
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
Getting a price is easy: snap the damage close up and then the entire item, send them to us with your postcode, and you’ll get a fixed quote back. Quotes are free and no obligation.
When a repair is not the answer
A repair isn’t always the answer, and we’d rather say so up front. Repairs will not solve:
- A bath that flexes because its feet or cradle have failed (that needs fixing first)
- Leaks from the waste or overflow fittings (a plumber’s job)
- Cracks in parts of an acrylic bath we can’t get to from below
Landlord and trade work in OX49
Letting agents frequently send us photos straight from the inventory. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.
Hospitality businesses can’t afford rooms out of action for long, so we keep visits short and tidy. We can work around your bookings.
OX49 questions
Can I add another job to the visit?
Yes. Doing several items on one visit normally costs less than separate visits. Include photos of each item.
Is my repair covered?
Yes: twelve months. If there is a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.
Will it make a mess?
No. The work area is masked and covered, and we leave the room clean.
Are you accredited?
Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.
What areas do you cover?
We cover the whole UK, including OX49 and the rest of Oxfordshire. Just include your postcode and we will confirm dates.
Do you cover OX49?
Yes, we do. Technicians travel to OX49 from across the region, and the price is the same as everywhere else.
What happens next?
You get a fixed price and available dates. If we need another angle, we’ll ask.
