Bath repair in Cove, done in place
Bath repair is our most common job. Chips on the rim, rust around the waste and cracks in acrylic are all repaired in place, normally in one visit. If you’re dealing with impact holes in acrylic and scratches you can feel with a fingernail, we can typically put it right, on whirlpool & spa baths, roll-top & freestanding and acrylic alike.
Whatever the size of the job, you get the same one-year guarantee in Cove and across Hampshire.

For landlords and businesses
Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which matters when someone is living in the home.
Hospitality businesses can’t afford rooms out of action for long, so we keep visits short and tidy. We’ll fit around changeovers where we can.
How the visit works
There is not much you need to do on the day. Let us in and show us the room, and we will take it from there. Most visits take a few hours, depending on the damage, tidy-up included.
- We clean the area and remove any loose enamel or rust.
- We fill the damage and sand it flush with the surrounding surface.
- We tint the finish on the day to suit your bath’s shade of white or colour.
- We apply the finish coats and polish the repair so it blends in.
- We leave it to cure; you can normally use the bath the next day.
Before we arrive
- Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
- Keep a parking space free if you can
- Let the surface dry out before the visit
How to get a price

Is the work guaranteed?
Yes: twelve months. If there is a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.
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 price it without visiting?
In nearly every case. If photos don’t show enough, we’ll ask for another angle.
Is a holed acrylic bath repairable?
Normally. Photos of the hole and the underside help us check.

Yes. We remove the old filler and start again. Tell us about it when you send pictures.
What areas do you cover?
Across the UK, so Cove is covered. Prices do not change with location.
What information do you need?
A close-up, a wider photo and your postcode. After that, we just agree a date.
What affects the price in Cove
Repairs from £95. There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price is based on:
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- Access to the area

- Natural light rather than flash
- One sharp close-up of the damage

Can I fix it myself?
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.
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
Do you need bath repair in Cove?
Acrylic baths that crack nearly always have a support problem. Legs that aren’t adjusted, a missing cradle or a soft floor let the bath move.
Signs it’s time to call us include:
- Impact holes in acrylic
- Rust by the waste and overflow
- Chips caused by builders
- Scratches you can feel with a fingernail

Materials and what they mean for the repair
Composite and resin
Stone resin and composite baths are heavy and solid. Chips and scratches can be filled and colour matched, just like other baths.
Cast iron
Cast iron baths are thick and very strong, finished with fired enamel. A chip down to the iron can rust, but the bath itself lasts for generations, which makes it well worth repairing.
How to look after the repair
Simple care helps the repair last. Our advice:
- Protect the bath with a towel when doing jobs nearby
- Use a soft cloth and washing-up liquid for everyday cleaning
- Fix dripping taps early to stop staining and limescale
- Keep abrasive pads and gritty cleaners away from the bath
Treat the repaired area like the rest of the bath: a soft cloth and washing-up liquid is all it needs. Keep scouring pads and gritty cleaners away from it.
Avoid standing in a cracked acrylic bath until it’s fixed. Each time it flexes, the crack grows, and water can get through to the floor below.
