About our bath repair in Hoppers Corner
Repairing baths is what we do most. A chip by the taps, a crack in the base and a rust spot by the plughole are all fixed without removing the bath, normally in one visit. If you are dealing with deep scratches in acrylic and damage beneath the taps, we can help, whatever the material.
Peace of mind is built in: our one-year guarantee applies to every job, and we explain what it covers before booking.

Materials and what they mean for the repair
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.
Acrylic
Acrylic baths are moulded sheet reinforced underneath. There is no rust, but cracks, holes and scratches happen, and a crack only stays repaired if it’s supported underneath.
DIY kit or professional repair?
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is typically cheaper.
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, a professional repair is worth it.
What happens on the day
Arrival times are agreed in advance, so you know when to expect us. On site, it takes a few hours for most jobs. We leave the room clean and you will know when it can be used.
- We clean the area and remove any loose enamel or rust.
- The chip or crack is filled, then sanded level with the bath.
- The colour is mixed on the spot to match your bath.
- We build up the finish and polish it into the surrounding enamel.
- The repair is left to cure, and most baths can be used the day after.
Before we arrive
- Let us know which floor the room is on
- Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area

Advice
Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £95. We give every job a fixed quote from pictures. These are the things that affect it:
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- How many areas need work
- The material and finish
Instead of hourly rates, we fix the price before we start. Damage, material and access decide it, and combining items on one visit brings it down.
How to get a fixed quote
It only takes a minute to photograph the damage. Try to send:
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- What it’s made of, if you know
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- A photo taken from further back
Pricing is simple: snap the damage close up and then the entire item, send them to us with your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed price. Quotes are free and you are under no obligation.
Hoppers Corner: your questions answered
When can you do it?
We’ll give you dates with your quote. If it’s urgent, say so and we’ll do what we can.
Can you match an avocado or pink bath?
Yes, coloured baths are no problem. We tint the finish to your bath on site.
Something went through my bath. Can it be fixed?
Usually. Send us a picture of the hole and one from under the bath if you can.
Can you repair several things at once?
Yes. Doing several items on one visit generally costs less than separate visits. Send pictures of everything you’d like done.
Is there a guarantee?
Yes, for a year. If there is a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.
What about rust by the waste?
Yes, very often. We take it back to sound metal, seal it, fill it and match the colour.
Which areas do you work in?
Everywhere in the UK, Hoppers Corner included. There is no extra charge for travel.
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
In most cases. We remove the old repair before doing a new one, so let us know about it.

Why repair rather than replace?
People frequently assume a cracked or chipped bath has to come out. In most cases it doesn’t: a repair keeps the bath in service for years, and costs far less than the disruption of a replacement. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Every job is a little different, so we price each one individually. The size and type of damage, the material and access all make a difference, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.
What you get with us
- Fixed prices from your photos
- One price list for the entire UK
- Every repair guaranteed for a year
- Nothing taken out or refitted

Common problems we fix in Hoppers Corner
Most bath damage comes from something dropped: a shampoo bottle, a shower head, a tile or a tool during a refit. On enamelled baths, any chip down to the metal will start to rust.
These are the problems we are asked about most:
- A failed DIY repair that’s discoloured or lifting
- Holes from dropped items
- Scratches you can feel with a fingernail
- Rust spots around the plughole
Before you book anyone
- Who will actually do the work
- What protection goes down before work starts
- Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price
- Whether the colour is mixed to match
Aftercare tips
After the repair has cured, a few habits help it last:
- Fix dripping taps early to stop staining and limescale
- Avoid scourers, wire wool and gritty cream cleaners
- Clean with warm water and a mild detergent
- Don’t leave a fresh chip for long
Don’t leave razors, cans or hair grips in the bath, as they can leave rust marks. And fix dripping taps promptly.
Small chips are quick to repair. Leave them and they collect dirt, stain and, on metal baths, rust, so early repair saves time and money.
