Repairing versus replacing in Bulmore
When the bath is otherwise sound, repairing beats replacing. It costs less, takes less time and causes far less upheaval, and the bathroom stays as it is. If the entire surface is worn, re-enamelling may make more sense, and we will tell you. Prices start from £95. Rather than charging by the hour, we price the entire job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and doing several items at once reduces it.
What you get with us
- We will tell you if it’s not worth repairing
- A year’s guarantee on all work

What we are called out for in Bulmore
Rust tends to begin where water collects, around the waste, under the taps or in an old chip. Water on bare metal causes rust that creeps under the surrounding enamel.
Keep an eye out for these signs:
- An old repair that has yellowed or come loose
- Deep scratches in acrylic
- Damage beneath the taps
- Damage done while the bathroom was being fitted

DIY kit or professional repair?
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
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, it’s worth having it done properly.
What affects the price in Bulmore
Repairs from £95. There’s no area surcharge for Bulmore. The price reflects:
- The material
- Access to the area
- How hard the colour is to match
- Doing more than one item at once
A repair generally costs much less than people expect, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

Two or three clear pictures are generally enough. It helps if you send:

Your questions about bath repair in Bulmore
Which areas do you work in?
The whole UK, including all of Newport. Just include your postcode and we will offer you dates.
Do you cover Bulmore?
Yes. We cover the entire UK and come to Bulmore. Send pictures and we’ll quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
Is a holed acrylic bath repairable?
Normally. Photos of the hole and the underside help us check.
Is there any odour?
Some materials have a smell while they’re applied, so we ventilate the room. It fades as everything cures.
Do I have to be there?
Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time that suits you.
Can you repair something that is been repaired before?
Most of the time. Tell us what was done before.
What happens once I’ve sent pictures?
We look at the photos and reply with a fixed price and some dates. If we need another angle, we’ll ask.
Can I get a quote without a visit?
Nearly always. We only ask to see it in person if the photos can’t show what we need.
Keeping it looking good
Aftercare is simple, and it makes a real difference:
- Rinse it down after each bath
- Cover the bath during DIY or decorating
- Make sure an acrylic bath is firm underfoot
- Get any new chip repaired before it rusts
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.
If water is getting through a crack, stop using the bath until it’s repaired. Leaks under a bath can damage floors and ceilings.

How the visit works
Once we’re through the door, the aim is to do the job without disturbing the rest of your home. We mask off everything nearby, the work takes a few hours, depending on the damage, depending on what we find, and we finish by cleaning up and talking you through the result.
- First, the area is cleaned and any loose enamel or rust is removed.
- The chip or crack is filled, then sanded level with the bath.
- We mix the colour on the day to match your bath’s exact shade.
- Finish coats go on, then the repair is polished to blend in.
- The repair is left to cure, and most baths can be used the day after.
Before we arrive
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
- Have a window or extractor fan available
- Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
