Bath repair in Hoobrook, done in place
A typical bath repair is a few hours’ work, and you can normally bathe again the following day. There’s no need to book a plumber or tiler, because the bath doesn’t move. If you are dealing with snagging damage from a refit and impact holes in acrylic, we can usually put it right.
The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If something is not right in that time, we come back and put it right.

Hoobrook: your questions answered
I tried a repair kit. Can you fix it?
Yes, we do this frequently. We strip it out, deal with any rust and repair it again.
Can you do more than one item on the same visit?
Yes, and it’s frequently cheaper. Send pictures of everything together and we will quote them together.
How long does the repair take to cure?
Most baths can be used the day after. We confirm the time before we leave.
Will I be able to see the repair?
On a glossy bath, you will struggle to find it. On older, dull enamel the repair can look glossier than the area around it.
What does bath repair cost?
Prices start from £95. We give a fixed quote from your photos. Send a close-up and a photo of the entire item and your postcode.
Do you do work for letting agents?
We do, regularly. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.
What happens next?
We look at the photos and reply with a fixed price and some dates. If we need another angle, we will ask.
Are there extra charges for Hoobrook?
There is no separate call-out charge. Your fixed quote includes everything.
Keeping it looking good
Nothing complicated is needed, just a few sensible habits:
- Check that an acrylic bath does not move when you stand in it
- Cover the bath during DIY or decorating
- Get a dripping tap fixed promptly
- Do not scrub with anything abrasive
Keep metal objects like razors and cans off the surface, because they can mark the enamel. A dripping tap should be fixed early, too.
A small chip is a quick job. Left alone, they stain and can rust, so it’s worth getting them done early.
What bath repair costs
Prices start from £95. We charge the same across the UK, including Hoobrook. The price reflects:
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- What kind of damage it is
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- Whether we combine several jobs
We charge the same wherever you are, with no extra for Hoobrook. What changes the price is the job itself: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.
Getting a price from photos
It only takes a minute to photograph the damage. Please include:
- Natural light rather than flash
- Any details about the material
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
Most customers in Hoobrook get their price from pictures. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we will send back a fixed quote and some dates.
How it works
Expect a friendly, tidy visit. We confirm the time with you beforehand, cover and mask the work area, and get on with the job, which typically takes two to three hours for most chips. If anything looks different from your pictures, we’ll talk to you before going ahead.
- Dust sheets and masking go down around the bath.
- The damaged area is cleaned, keyed and degreased.
- Filler goes in and is sanded flush once it has set.
- We match both the colour and the shine.
- We tidy up and tell you when the bath can be used, usually the next day.
Getting ready for the visit
- Have a window or extractor fan available
- Let us know which floor the room is on
- Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
Getting a price
Pricing is simple: take a close-up of the damage and a photo from further back, send them over with your postcode, and you will get a fixed price back. Quotes are free and no obligation.
Advice
Repair or replace in Hoobrook?
People often assume a cracked or chipped bath has to come out. Normally it doesn’t: a proper repair gives it years more use, without the cost and upheaval of replacing it. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. No two jobs are quite the same, so we price each one individually. The size and type of damage, the material and access all play a part, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.
What you get with us
- One visit for most repairs
- Same prices wherever you are
- Every repair guaranteed for a year
- Colour-matched on site

DIY kit or professional repair?
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair will not last.
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is usually cheaper.
Different materials, different repairs
Acrylic
An acrylic bath is a moulded sheet strengthened from below. They don’t rust, but they can crack, scratch or be holed, and a crack only stays repaired if it’s supported underneath.
Composite and resin
Composite baths are dense and solid, and often freestanding. Chips and scratches can be filled and colour-matched, in much the same way.
