What happens on the day
Nothing needs to be moved out of the room. Everything we use comes in the van with us, put protection down and start once you are happy with the plan. It usually takes two to three hours for most chips, and you can get on with other things while we are there.
- Dust sheets and masking go down around the bath.
- The damaged area is cleaned, keyed and degreased, and any rust is treated.
- We fill it, let it set, then sand it flush.
- Colour and gloss are matched to the surrounding surface.
- We tidy up and tell you when the bath can be used, typically the following day.
Before we arrive
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
- Keep a parking space free if you can

Related advice
Bole: your questions answered
How long before I can use the bath?
Generally within a day, though it depends on what we have done.
Is a bath repair durable?
It should, as long as the bath is firm and the area was prepared well. It’s covered by our one-year guarantee.
Is a cracked acrylic bath repairable?
In most cases. The back of the crack is strengthened before the front is filled and refinished, so access behind the panel is important.
Can landlords book you?
We do, regularly. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.
What happens if you find more damage?
We’ll show you and explain before doing anything extra. You will not be charged for anything you haven’t agreed.
Can you repair several things at once?
Yes, and it’s often cheaper. Just add the extra items to your photos and we will quote them together.
Which areas do you work in?
The entire UK, including all of Nottinghamshire. Just include your postcode and we’ll offer you dates.
Is repairing better than replacing?
Generally, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. We will be honest if it’s not worth it.

How we price bath repair
Repairs from £95. We price every job individually, from your pictures. The main factors are:
- The material
- How hard the colour is to match
- Access to the area
- Doing more than one item at once
There are no surprise extras on the day. What we quote from your photos is what you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.
How to get a fixed price
The better the pictures, the more accurate the price. Here’s what we find most useful:
- Something in shot to show the size
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- Where you are, by postcode
- Any details about the material
Getting a price is easy: snap the damage close up and then the whole item, send them over with your postcode, and you’ll get a fixed quote back. Quotes are free and you’re under no obligation.
How to care for the repair
Most damage we see is avoidable. These habits help:
- Check that an acrylic bath does not move when you stand in it
- Clean with warm water and a mild detergent
- Fix dripping taps early to stop staining and limescale
- Keep metal cans and razors off the surface
Keep metal objects like razors and cans off the surface, because they can mark the enamel. A dripping tap should be fixed early, too.
Tape over a fresh chip or crack until it’s repaired, so water can’t get in. Remove it before the repair.
Honest limits
A repair is not always the answer, and we would rather say so up front. Repairs will not solve:
- A steel bath rusted through
- Acrylic cracks with no access behind them
- Flexing caused by a failed cradle or loose feet
Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly before you book.
Surfaces we repair
- Pressed steel enamel
- Cast iron enamel
- Whirlpool & spa baths
- Acrylic
- Roll-top & freestanding

Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. We charge the same wherever you are, so there is no premium for Bole. What changes the price is the job itself: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.
Why us?

- Fixed prices from your photos
- Colour mixed on the day to match
- Every repair guaranteed for a year

DIY kit or professional repair?
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, and the work is guaranteed.
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.
Signs you need bath repair in Bole
Glass and heavy bottles cause more chips than anything else, with dropped shower heads close behind. Fittings cause damage too: water sits around them, and any chip there soon rusts.
Look out for these signs:
- Rust by the waste and overflow
- Deep scratches in acrylic
- A failed DIY repair that is discoloured or lifting
- A cracked acrylic bath
What to look for in a quote
- Whether there are any call-out or travel charges
- What prep work is covered
- Whether the colour is mixed to match
