About our bath repair in Hunton Bridge
It pays to repair bath damage while it’s small. On steel and cast iron, exposed metal starts to rust, while cracks in acrylic grow each time the bath moves. Repairing it stops the damage getting worse. Our repair technicians work on cast iron enamel, whirlpool & spa baths and acrylic, and people most often call us about snagging damage from a refit and hairline or through cracks in acrylic.
You are covered after we leave: our one-year guarantee applies to every job, and we’ll explain exactly what it covers when we quote.

When we would advise against a repair
We’ll always be straight with you, so here’s what a repair can’t fix:
- Rust that has eaten right through a steel bath
- Wear across the entire surface, which needs re-enamelling
- Flexing caused by a failed cradle or loose feet
If in doubt, send pictures and we will say what we think.
Surfaces we repair
- Whirlpool & spa baths
- Acrylic
- Pressed steel enamel
- Cast iron enamel
- Roll-top & freestanding
Keeping it looking good
How the surface is treated afterwards matters. Here’s what we suggest:
- Fix dripping taps early to stop staining and limescale
- Have new chips seen to early
- Give the bath a quick rinse after use
- Protect the bath with a towel when doing jobs nearby
Give the repair the full curing time we recommend before using the bath. After that, gentle cleaning keeps it looking good.
Avoid standing in a cracked acrylic bath until it’s fixed. Every use opens the crack a little more, and water can get through to the floor below.
DIY repairs versus a professional job
If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.

What we do, step by step
We work cleanly and quietly, so you can stay at home while we’re there. We protect the area first, then the job itself takes a few hours, depending on the damage. At the end we talk you through the curing time and the aftercare.
- Dust sheets and masking go down around the bath.
- We clean, key and degrease the damage, and any rust is treated.
- Filler goes in and is sanded flush once it has set.
- We match both the colour and the shine.
- We clear up and give you the curing time, normally until the day after.
Getting ready for the visit
- Let the surface dry out before the visit

Do you need bath repair in Hunton Bridge?
Rust tends to begin where water collects, by the plughole, beneath dripping taps or in an unrepaired chip. Once water reaches the steel or iron, rust spreads under the enamel.

- Cracks in an acrylic bath
- A chipped rim or side
- A failed DIY repair that’s discoloured or lifting
- A chip where the taps sit
What your quote should include

- Whether there are any call-out or travel charges
What bath repair costs
Repairs from £95. We give every job a fixed quote from photos. This is what makes a difference:
- Unusual colours or finishes
- The type of damage
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- The material
We charge the same wherever you are, so there’s no premium for Hunton Bridge. What changes the price is the job itself: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.
Quotes from your pictures
Before you send photos, these tips help us give you a firm price:
- Where you are, by postcode
- Any details about the material
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- One picture of the entire bath
A quote takes minutes to ask for: photograph the damage, then the entire bath, include your postcode and send them over. You will get a fixed quote, not an estimate.
Materials and what they mean for the repair
Composite and resin
Composite baths are dense and solid, and frequently freestanding. Chips and scratches are filled and matched, just like other baths.
Cast iron
Cast iron is heavy and rigid, with a fused enamel surface. Chips can rust if left, but the bath itself lasts for generations, so it’s always worth repairing.
