Aftercare tips
Simple care helps the repair last. Our advice:
- Make sure an acrylic bath is firm underfoot
- Protect the bath with a towel when doing jobs nearby
- Get a dripping tap fixed promptly
- Store metal items away from the bath
Clean with mild, non-abrasive cleaners and avoid dropping heavy items on the repaired area. Deal with new chips early, before rust sets in.
Small chips are quick to repair. Left alone, they stain and can rust, so it’s worth getting them done early.
Bath repair in Hoopers Pool, done in place
A damaged bath doesn’t have to mean a new bathroom. We fill the damage, shape it to the curve of the bath and refinish it, with the colour mixed on site. Whether it’s rust spots around the plughole and a kit repair that didn’t last, we can usually put it right, on whirlpool & spa baths, cast iron enamel and roll-top & freestanding alike.
Whatever the size of the job, it’s backed by a one-year guarantee.

What your bath is made of matters
Cast iron
Cast iron is heavy and rigid, finished with fired enamel. A chip down to the iron can rust, but the bath itself lasts for generations, so it’s always worth repairing.
Acrylic
Acrylic is light and warm to the touch, but it relies on good support. Repairs to cracks are reinforced from the back.
When to call us in Hoopers Pool
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 until it cracks.
Most people get in touch after spotting something like this:
- Impact holes in acrylic
- Rust by the waste and overflow
- Damage done while the bathroom was being fitted
- A cracked acrylic bath

Common questions in Hoopers Pool
How invisible is a bath repair?
The goal is a repair that blends in. How well it disappears depends on the condition of the rest of the bath, and we’ll tell you what to expect.
Do you cover Hoopers Pool?
Yes. We cover the entire UK and travel to Hoopers Pool. Send pictures and we’ll quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
Is there a call-out fee?
There is no separate call-out charge. The fixed quote covers the visit and the work.
Will the repair last?
A properly prepared repair should last a long time, and ours come with a one-year guarantee. Gentle cleaning helps it last.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
Generally, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. We will be honest if it’s not worth it.
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
Normally, yes. We remove the old repair before doing a new one, so mention it when you send pictures.
How long before I can use the bath?
Generally the next day. We confirm the time before we leave.
Can you do more than one item on the same visit?
Yes, and it’s often cheaper. Send pictures of everything together and we will quote them together.
What we cannot put right
Not everything can be repaired, and we would rather say so up front. We can’t fix:
- Wear across the whole surface, which needs re-enamelling
- Cracks in parts of an acrylic bath we cannot get to from below
- Flexing caused by a failed cradle or loose feet
Not sure? Send photos and we will give you a straight answer.

What else we do in Hoopers Pool
How we price bath repair
Repairs from £95. Every quote is fixed and free. What we look at:
- The material
- The type of damage
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is generally a fraction of the price, because there is no removal, plumbing or making good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.
How to get a fixed quote
It only takes a minute to photograph the damage, and it saves a visit. Please include:
- The material, if you know it
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- One picture of the entire bath
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
Email us a picture of the damage and one of the entire item, and tell us you are in Hoopers Pool, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote.
Work for landlords and builders
We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams in Wiltshire and across the UK. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which matters when someone is living in the home.
We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Hoopers Pool as well as householders. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it costs much less than replacing.
