Bath repair at your home in Bishop's Moat
It pays to repair bath damage while it’s small. Exposed metal on enamelled baths soon rusts, while cracks in acrylic grow each time the bath moves. A repair stops both. Whether it’s snagging damage from a refit and deep scratches in acrylic, we can help, on whirlpool & spa baths, pressed steel enamel and cast iron enamel alike.
All of our repairs are guaranteed for twelve months in Bishop's Moat and everywhere else. We return to put right any problem with the work.

Repairs by material
Cast iron
A cast iron bath is heavy enough that most people never want to move it. The enamel is the part that wears or chips, and that’s what we repair.
Acrylic
An acrylic bath is a moulded sheet strengthened from below. They do not rust, but they can crack, scratch or be holed, and cracks need support from behind to stay fixed.
DIY kit or professional repair?
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is normally the cheaper route.
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, it’s worth having it done properly.

How the visit works
Arrival times are agreed in advance. Once we’re there, the work takes a few hours. The room is left tidy and you will know when it can be used.
- First, we check the damage against your photos and agree the plan.
- Loose enamel, rust and dirt are removed so the repair can bond.
- We build up the filler in layers, shaping it to the bath.
- We tint the finish by hand to match the bath.
- The repair is polished to the same gloss as the bath and left to cure.
Preparing for the visit
- Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
- Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
- Keep a parking space free if you can
How to get a price
Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us photos through the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the whole bath, we can price the job.
Advice
When we would advise against a repair
Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:
- Rust that has eaten right through a steel bath
- A bath that moves underfoot, until its support is fixed
- Cracks in parts of an acrylic bath we can’t get to from below
If in doubt, send photos and we will say what we think.
Materials we work on in Bishop's Moat
- Roll-top & freestanding
- Cast iron enamel
- Whirlpool & spa baths
- Pressed steel enamel
- Acrylic
How to look after the repair
It’s all simple stuff:
- Don’t leave a fresh chip for long
- Fix dripping taps early to stop staining and limescale
- Put a towel in the bath if you’re working above it
- Don’t scrub with anything abrasive
Care for the repair the same way as the bath: warm water, washing-up liquid and a soft cloth. Keep scouring pads and gritty cleaners away from it.
A chip on a metal bath shouldn’t be left. Once water reaches the metal, rust begins, and a rust spot is a bigger repair than a clean chip.
Bishop's Moat questions
Is there a call-out fee?
We don’t add a call-out fee. Your fixed price includes everything.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
In most cases, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. If it is not worth repairing, we will tell you.
How much does bath repair cost in Bishop's Moat?
Prices start from £95. Because every job differs, we price from photos. You know the full cost before anything is booked.
What information do you need?
Just pictures, your postcode and a contact number. On the day, we only need access to the room.
Is a bath repair durable?
A properly prepared repair should last a long time, and ours come with a one-year guarantee. Gentle cleaning helps.
Do you hold any accreditations?
Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.
How long before I can use the bath?
Normally by the following day, depending on the repair.
Does someone need to be in?
Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time that suits you.

Repairs from £95. There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price is based on:
- How many areas need work
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- The material and finish
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Photos let us give you the exact figure.
