Bath repair in Hole Bottom, done in place
Chips, cracks, rust spots and small holes can be repaired with the bath left exactly where it is. Nothing is unplumbed, your tiles stay as they are, and the repaired area is colour matched so it blends in. We are frequently asked to fix rusty patches near the plughole and deep scratches in acrylic, across roll-top & freestanding, cast iron enamel and pressed steel enamel.
You’re covered for a year from the day of the repair. If anything isn’t right, ring us and we will come back.

Aftercare tips
Aftercare is simple, and it makes a real difference:
- Rinse the bath after use, especially in hard water areas
- Cover the bath during DIY or decorating
- Keep abrasive pads and gritty cleaners away from the bath
- Fix dripping taps early to stop staining and limescale
Leave the repair to cure for as long as we say before running a bath. From then on, mild cleaning is all it needs.
A small chip is a quick job. Left alone, they stain and can rust, so early repair saves time and money.
What your bath is made of matters
Pressed steel
Steel baths are lighter than cast iron, but have a similar enamel surface. Exposed steel rusts fast, especially around the waste, so early repairs matter.
Composite and resin
Stone resin and composite baths are heavy and solid. Chips and scratches can be filled and colour-matched, in much the same way.
Landlord and trade work in Hole Bottom
We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which is easier on the people living there.
We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out pictures. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.

Here’s how a visit typically runs: we arrive at the agreed slot, sheet and mask the area around the job, do the job and clear up. Allow a morning or an afternoon from start to finish. Before leaving, we tell you how long to leave it and what to avoid for the first few days.
- We protect the bath and the floor around it.
- We clean, key and degrease the damage.
- We fill it, let it set, then sand it flush.
- Colour and gloss are matched to the surrounding surface.
- We clear up and give you the curing time, normally until the next day.
Before we arrive
- Open a window if you can
- Let us know which floor the room is on

Hole Bottom questions
What happens once I’ve sent photos?
We come back with a fixed quote. There’s no obligation to book.
When can you do it?
That depends on our diary for your area. Send photos with your postcode and we’ll reply with the earliest dates.
Is my repair covered?
All our work carries a one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.
Is it safe with children and pets around?
Keep pets and children away from the work area on the day, so the repair isn’t disturbed while it cures.
Is repairing better 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.
When can I have a bath again?
Normally by the following day, though it depends on what we have done.
Will it make a mess?
Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and we clean up when we’ve finished.
What if the damage is worse than the pictures show?
It’s rare, but if it happens we talk to you first. The price only changes if you agree.
When we would advise against a repair
Not everything can be repaired, and we’d rather say so up front. We can’t fix:
- A bath that flexes because its feet or cradle have failed (that needs fixing first)
- Leaking fittings, which need a plumber
- A bath worn all over, where resurfacing makes more sense
Not sure? Send photos and we will give you a straight answer before you book.
Materials we repair
- Acrylic
- Roll-top & freestanding
- Pressed steel enamel
- Whirlpool & spa baths

Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £95. We charge the same across the UK, including Hole Bottom. What changes the price is:
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- Unusual colours or finishes
- Doing more than one item at once
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
The price depends on how much damage there is and what kind, what it’s made of and how many items we do on one visit. We give a fixed quote from your pictures, so there are no surprises on the day.
Send photos for a quote
Phone photos are fine, there is no need for anything special. Just ensure we can see:
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- A wider photo showing the entire bath
Most customers in Hole Bottom get their price from pictures. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.
DIY repairs versus a professional job
A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it does not stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.
If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely and work on a clean, dry surface, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.
Common problems we fix in Hole Bottom
Nearly all the chips we see start with something being dropped: bottles, shower heads, tiles and tools. On enamelled baths, any chip down to the metal will start to rust.
Keep an eye out for any of the following:
- A chipped rim or side
- An old repair that has yellowed or come loose
- Damage beneath the taps
- Holes from dropped items
