Should you replace it?
Cast iron baths especially are worth keeping: they’re very heavy to remove, especially upstairs, and replacing like for like is not cheap. Repairing it leaves it where it is. Prices start from £95. A repair normally costs much less than people expect, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Photos let us give you the exact figure.
What you get with us
- One visit for most repairs
- One price list for the whole UK
- We come to you, anywhere in the UK
- Every repair guaranteed for a year

About our bath repair in Bopeep
A damaged bath does not 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. We’re often asked to fix rusty patches near the plughole and chips caused by builders, across cast iron enamel, whirlpool & spa baths and pressed steel enamel.
Big or small, it’s backed by a one-year guarantee.

When to call us in Bopeep
Nearly all the chips we see start with something being dropped: a shampoo bottle, a shower head, a tile or a tool during a refit. On steel and cast iron baths, a chip that reaches the metal lets water in, and rust follows.
The things customers normally mention when they call include:
- Hairline or through cracks in acrylic
- Damage beneath the taps
- A hole punched through by something heavy
- An old repair that has yellowed or come loose
What to look for in a quote
- What aftercare is recommended
- What protection goes down before work starts
- Whether the colour is mixed to match
- Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?

Different materials, different repairs
Acrylic
Acrylic feels warm and is light, but it needs firm support underneath. Cracks are strengthened from behind before the front is finished.
Composite and resin
Composite baths are dense and solid. Chips and scratches can be filled and colour matched, just like other baths.

The process
A typical visit goes like this: we arrive at the agreed slot, protect everything around the work area, carry out the work and clear up. Allow a few hours, depending on the damage from start to finish. Before we go, we will explain how long to leave it and what to avoid for the first few days.
- We clean the area and remove any loose enamel or rust.
- The chip or crack is filled, then sanded level with the bath.
- The colour is mixed on the spot to match your bath.
- Finish coats go on, then the repair is polished to blend in.
- We leave it to cure; you can normally use the bath the next day.
Getting ready for the visit
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
Getting a price
Getting a price is easy: take a close-up of the damage and a photo from further back, send them to us with your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed price. There is no charge for the quote and no obligation.

Common questions in Bopeep
What happens once I’ve sent photos?
You get a fixed quote and available dates. If anything’s unclear, we’ll ask for another photo.
Can you repair a hole in a bath?
In most cases. Photos of the hole and the underside help us check.
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.
How do I book?
Send pictures through the quote form or call 0345 017 0787, and we will do the rest.
Is there any odour?
It depends on the job, but often a little. Open windows and an extractor fan help, and it soon fades.
Will the price change on the day?
It’s rare, but if it happens we talk to you first. The price only changes if you agree.
Is there a call-out fee?
Travel is included in the price, with the same prices everywhere we work.
Will it make a mess?
Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and we clean up when we have finished.
How we price bath repair
Repairs from £95. Prices are worked out job by job, from your pictures. What matters most is:
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- Unusual colours or finishes
- The type of damage
- What the surface is made of
Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and doing several items at once reduces it.
Getting a price from photos
Most quotes are done from pictures alone. To help us price it:
- A picture taken from further back
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- What it’s made of, if you know
To get a price, send a couple of photos through our quote form or ring us. We’ll say straight away if a repair is the right fix.
For landlords and businesses
Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Bopeep use us as well as householders. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it costs much less than replacing.
Rental properties take more wear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.
Should I try a DIY kit first?
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. 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.
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair won’t last.
