How we handle bath repair in Bishop's Hull
Whatever the damage, the aim is the same: a repair that is smooth, sound and hard to spot. We prepare the area properly, fill and shape it, then match the colour and gloss so it sits flush with the rest of the bath. Our repair technicians work on acrylic, roll-top & freestanding and whirlpool & spa baths, and common reasons people contact us are impact holes in acrylic and a chipped rim or side.
You are covered for a year from the day of the repair. If anything isn’t right, ring us and we’ll sort it.

Prices start from £95. It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip.

When to call us in Bishop's Hull
Rust tends to begin where water collects, by the plughole, beneath dripping taps or in an unrepaired chip. Once water reaches the steel or iron, rust spreads under the enamel.
Look out for any of the following:
- Hairline or through cracks in acrylic
- Chips on the rim or sides
- Deep scratches in acrylic
- A kit repair that didn’t last
Questions to ask before you book
- Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price
- Whether the colour is mixed to match
- When it can be used again
- What protection goes down before work starts
Materials and what they mean for the repair
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.
Composite and resin
Composite baths are dense and solid. Chips and scratches can be filled and colour matched, just like other baths.
When a repair is not the answer
Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair will not do:
- Rust that has eaten right through a steel bath
- A bath that moves underfoot, until its support is fixed
- Water coming from the waste or taps rather than the bath
Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly before booking.

Bishop's Hull: your questions answered
Will there be a smell?
It depends on the job, but frequently a little. Open windows and an extractor fan help, and it soon fades.
Is it messy?
No. The work area is masked and covered, and we leave the room clean.
How do I book?
Photos of the damage, a picture of the whole bath and your postcode. After that, we just agree a date.
How quickly can you book me in?
That depends on our diary for your area. Send photos with your postcode and we will reply with the earliest dates.
Can you repair a hole in a bath?
In most cases. Send us a photo of the hole and one from under the bath if you can.
Will I be able to see the repair?
On a glossy bath, you’ll struggle to find it. On worn enamel, it can look shinier than the rest.
Can you redo an old repair?
Regularly. The old material comes out, any rust is treated, then we repair it properly.
What areas do you cover?
We cover the whole UK, including Bishop's Hull and the rest of Somerset. Just include your postcode and we’ll confirm dates.
How to look after the repair
It’s all simple stuff, just a few sensible habits:
- Keep abrasive pads and gritty cleaners away from the bath
- Stick to mild cleaners and a soft cloth
- Have new chips seen to early
- Don’t leave razors or cans standing in the bath
Treat the repaired area like the rest of the bath: warm water, washing-up liquid and a soft cloth. Keep scouring pads and gritty cleaners away from it.
Rust spreads under enamel faster than most people expect. Left for months, a small chip can grow into a large rust patch, so it pays to deal with it early.
How it works
We turn up at the time we agreed with you, introduces themselves and looks over the damage before anything else. Dust sheets and masking tape go down before any work starts. Most visits take two to three hours for most chips, and the room is left clean and tidy.
- We start by looking at the damage and confirming the plan with you.
- Any rust and loose material comes out, and the area is degreased.
- The damage is filled in layers and shaped to the curve of 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.
How to prepare
- Tell us about parking, stairs or access
- Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
- Make sure the area is dry
How to get a price
No survey visit is needed: we price from photos. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through, and you will get a fixed figure back.
Advice
Can I fix it myself?
For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, a professional repair is worth it.
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it will not stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.
