What we do, step by step
On the day itself, there is little for you to do. Let us in and show us the room, and we will get on with it. The job generally runs to a few hours.
- We clean the area and remove any loose enamel or rust.
- Next we fill the damage and sand it smooth and level.
- We mix the colour on the day to match your bath’s exact shade.
- We build up the finish and polish it into the surrounding enamel.
- We leave it to cure; you can usually use the bath the following day.
Preparing for the visit
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area

Bath repair in Hooton, done in place
A typical bath repair is a few hours’ work, and the bath is back in use the day after. There’s no need to book a plumber or tiler, because the bath doesn’t move. Our repair technicians work on whirlpool & spa baths, roll-top & freestanding and acrylic, and common reasons people contact us are chips under the taps and a failed DIY repair that’s discoloured or lifting.
Peace of mind is built in: our one-year guarantee applies to every job, and we’ll explain exactly what it covers when we quote.

Why repair rather than replace?
A new bath brings a chain of other jobs: tiles along the rim typically crack when it comes out, a new panel is frequently needed, and the plumbing has to be disconnected and refitted. Repairing the damage avoids all of that. Our bath repair starts from £95. We do not add extras on the day. What we quote from your photos is what you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.

Should I try a DIY kit first?
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is usually the cheaper route.
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.
Common problems we fix in Hooton
Acrylic baths that crack nearly always have a support problem. Legs that are not adjusted, a missing cradle or a soft floor let the bath move until it cracks.
Most people contact us when they notice one of these:
- A chip where the taps sit
- Scratches you can feel with a fingernail
- Impact holes in acrylic
- Chips along the edge of the bath

What a repair can’t fix
Not everything can be repaired, and we’ll tell you before we start. Repairs will not solve:
- Rust that has eaten right through a steel bath
- A bath that flexes because its feet or cradle have failed (that needs fixing first)
- Water coming from the waste or taps rather than the bath
If in doubt, send photos and we will say what we think.
Materials we repair
- Cast iron enamel
- Whirlpool & spa baths
- Pressed steel enamel

What bath repair costs
Repairs from £95. A fixed quote means you know the cost before you book. We look at:
- What the surface is made of
- Whether we combine several jobs
- What kind of damage it is
- How much damage there is
Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and combining items on one visit brings it down.

You can generally get a fixed price without us visiting. To make it quick:
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- A close-up of the damage, in focus

Hooton: your questions answered
Will you leave a mess?
Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we take our waste away with us.
I rent my home. Can I book you?
We are happy to deal with the tenant, landlord or agent. Get your landlord’s agreement first.
When can you do it?
It depends on the time of year and where you are. We’ll offer you dates when we send your quote.
Will I be able to see the repair?
On a bath in good condition, a colour matched repair is very hard to spot. On older, dull enamel the repair can look glossier than the area around it.
Can you repair a failed DIY repair?
Regularly. We strip it out, deal with any rust and repair it again.
Do you charge for travel?
We do not add a call-out fee. The fixed price covers the visit and the work.
Can you repair a chip on a coloured bath?
Yes, coloured baths are no problem. The colour is tinted by hand on the day.
Is a bath repair durable?
Yes, if it’s prepared properly and the bath is sound. It’s covered by our one-year guarantee.

What else we do in Hooton
Repairs by material
Pressed steel
Steel baths and trays have a thin metal body under the enamel. Exposed steel rusts quickly, so the metal is treated and sealed before the repair.
Cast iron
A cast iron bath is heavy enough that most people never want to move it. Only the enamel surface wears or chips, and that’s what we repair.
How to look after the repair
After the repair has cured, a few habits help it last:
- Get any new chip repaired before it rusts
- Rinse the bath after use, especially in hard water areas
- Check that an acrylic bath does not move when you stand in it
- Keep metal cans and razors off the surface
Use gentle, non-abrasive cleaners and avoid dropping heavy items on the repaired area. Deal with new chips early, before rust sets in.
Rust spreads under enamel faster than most people expect. Left for months, a small chip can grow into a large rust patch, so it pays to deal with it early.
