How we handle bath repair in Horcott
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, mixing the colour on the day. If you are dealing with a hole punched through by something heavy and a chipped rim or side, we can typically put it right, whatever the material.
The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If there is a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it.

How to look after the repair
To keep it looking its best for years:
- Keep metal cans and razors off the surface
- Check that an acrylic bath does not move when you stand in it
- Have new chips seen to early
- Avoid scourers, wire wool and gritty cream cleaners
There’s nothing special to do after a repair, beyond gentle cleaning. Skip bleach and gritty creams and rinse after use.
Until we visit, a strip of waterproof tape over the damage helps, to keep water out. Remove it before the repair.
Honest limits
Before you book, it’s worth knowing the limits:
- A bath worn all over, where resurfacing makes more sense
- Water coming from the waste or taps rather than the bath
- Rust that has eaten right through a steel bath
Send us photos and we will tell you honestly.
Materials we repair
- Cast iron enamel
- Pressed steel enamel
- Acrylic
- Roll-top & freestanding
- Whirlpool & spa baths
Repairs by material
Composite and resin
Composite baths are dense and solid. Chips and scratches can be filled and colour-matched, in much the same way.
Cast iron
Cast iron is heavy and rigid, with a fused enamel surface. A chip down to the iron can rust, but the bath itself lasts for generations, so it’s always worth repairing.
Should you replace it?
When the bath is otherwise sound, repairing beats replacing. It’s quicker, cheaper and far less disruptive, and you keep the bath you chose. If the entire surface is worn, re-enamelling may make more sense, and we’ll tell you. Prices start from £95. Rather than charging by the hour, we price the entire job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and doing several items at once reduces it.
Why Horcott customers choose us
- Fixed prices from your pictures
- One-year guarantee on every repair
- Colour mixed on the day to match
- No extra charge for your area

For landlords and businesses
For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover. Several plots can be done in one visit to keep costs down.
Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.
Can I fix it myself?
We understand the appeal of fixing it 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.
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, ensure the area is clean and completely dry, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.
What happens on the day
A typical visit goes like this: we arrive on time, protect everything around the work area, carry out the work and tidy away. Plan for a morning or an afternoon. Before we go, we will explain how long to leave it and what to avoid for the first few days.
- First, the area is cleaned and any loose enamel or rust is removed.
- Next we fill the damage and sand it smooth and level.
- The colour is mixed on the spot to match your bath.
- Finish coats go on, then the repair is polished to blend in.
- We leave it to cure; you can usually use the bath the following day.
Preparing for the visit
- Make sure the room can be ventilated
- Point us to the nearest place to park
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
