Bath repair in Hook without replacing anything
Whatever has happened to the bath, we aim for the same result: a repair that is smooth, sound and hard to spot. We prepare the area properly, fill and shape it, then match the colour and gloss so it’s level with the surrounding surface. Our technicians work on roll-top & freestanding, pressed steel enamel and cast iron enamel, and the jobs we see most are scuffs and scratches in the surface and chips caused by builders.
You get a one-year guarantee, the same in Hook as everywhere else we work.

Materials and what they mean for the repair
Acrylic
Acrylic baths are moulded sheet reinforced underneath. They do not rust, but they can crack, scratch or be holed, and a crack only stays repaired if it’s supported underneath.
Cast iron
Cast iron baths are so heavy that repairing in place makes obvious sense. Only the enamel surface wears or chips, and that’s what we repair.

Other services in Hook
Work for landlords and builders
Rental properties take more wear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.
We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, fixing chips and scratches before handover so nothing needs replacing. We’re CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.
What bath repair costs
Prices start from £95. Prices are worked out job by job, from your photos. The main factors are:
- The material and finish
- The size and number of damaged areas
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- Whether we combine several jobs
A repair is priced on what needs doing, not where you live. You will see the full price before booking, with nothing added on the day.
Getting a price from pictures
When you take your pictures, a few simple things make all the difference:
- Something in shot to show the size
- The material, if you know it
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
Getting a price is easy: take a close-up of the damage and a picture from further back, send them over with your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote. Quotes are free and no obligation.
Keeping it looking good
Looking after the surface is easy:
- Get any new chip repaired before it rusts
- A dripping tap stains enamel, so fix it early
- Check that an acrylic bath does not move when you stand in it
- Put a towel in the bath if you’re working above it
Keep metal objects like razors and cans off the surface, because they can mark the enamel. A dripping tap should be fixed early, too.
If water is getting through a crack, stop using the bath. Leaks under a bath can damage floors and ceilings.

DIY repairs versus a professional job
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully and work on a clean, dry surface, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.
It’s natural to want to try a repair 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.
Honest limits
Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair will not do:
- Rust that has eaten right through a steel bath
- A bath that moves underfoot, until its support is fixed
- Leaks from the waste or overflow fittings (a plumber’s job)
Send us pictures and we will tell you honestly before booking.
Surfaces we repair
- Whirlpool & spa baths
- Acrylic
- Roll-top & freestanding
- Pressed steel enamel

Hook: your questions answered
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
Yes, though it’s best to check with your landlord first. Many landlords are happy for a repair to be arranged before the end of a tenancy.
What do you need from me?
Just photos, your postcode and a contact number. On the day, access to the room.
Is a holed acrylic bath repairable?
In most cases. Send us a photo of the hole and one from under the bath if you can.
How quickly can you book me in?
Your quote comes with available dates. If it’s urgent, say so and we will do what we can.
Do you cover Hook?
Yes. We work across the UK and come to Hook. Send us photos for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
Is it safe with children and pets around?
Just keep them out of the work area. We will let you know when it’s safe to use again.
Can you repair a crack in an acrylic bath?
Most of the time. The back of the crack is strengthened before the front is filled and refinished, so we need access under the bath.
Is repairing better than replacing?
Generally, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. If it is not worth repairing, we will tell you.
How it works
We work cleanly and quietly. We protect the area first, then the work takes a few hours. At the end we talk you through how soon it can be used and how to look after it.
- First, we check the damage against your pictures and agree the plan.
- Any rust and loose material comes out, and the area is degreased.
- We build up the filler in layers, shaping it to the bath.
- The colour is tinted by hand until it matches.
- The repair is polished to the same gloss as the bath and left to cure.
Getting ready for the visit
- Let us know which floor the room is on
- Open a window if you can
- Keep a parking space free if you can
How to get a price
A quote takes minutes to ask for: photograph the damage, then the entire bath, include your postcode and send them to us. You’ll get a fixed price, not an estimate.
