Bath Repair in Overpool
Chip and crack repairs to enamel, acrylic and cast iron baths at your home in Overpool, with a one-year guarantee on every repair.
- Repairs from £95
- A chipped rim or side
- Damage beneath the taps
Keeping it looking good
A little care keeps the finish looking good. We recommend:
- Don’t leave a fresh chip for long
- Give the bath a quick rinse after use
- Keep metal cans and razors off the surface
- Avoid scourers, wire wool and gritty cream cleaners
Care for the repair the same way as the bath: a soft cloth and washing-up liquid is all it needs. Keep scouring pads and gritty cleaners away from it.
Do not leave a chip on a steel or cast iron bath. Water gets to the metal and rust starts, turning a quick repair into a bigger one.
Bath repair in Overpool, done in place
Bath repair is our most common job. A chip by the taps, a crack in the base and a rust spot by the plughole are all repaired in place, usually in a single visit. We regularly repair acrylic, whirlpool & spa baths and pressed steel enamel, and common reasons people get in touch are chips along the edge of the bath and rusty patches near the plughole.
Peace of mind is built in: our one-year guarantee applies to every job, and we explain what it covers before booking.

Should I try a DIY kit first?
If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, ensure the area is clean and completely dry, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair will not last.
Repairs by material
Cast iron
Cast iron is heavy and rigid, finished with fired enamel. Chips can rust if left, but the body of the bath lasts a very long time, which makes it well worth repairing.
Acrylic
An acrylic bath is a moulded sheet strengthened from below. They don’t rust, but they can crack, scratch or be holed, and a crack only stays repaired if it’s supported underneath.

- We fill the damage and sand it flush with the surrounding surface.
- We mix the colour on the day to match your bath’s exact shade.
- Finish coats go on, then the repair is polished to blend in.
- We leave it to cure; you can typically use the bath the day after.

Questions from Overpool
Will I be able to see the repair?
On a glossy bath, you will struggle to find it. On worn enamel, it can look shinier than the rest.
How long before I can use the bath?
Normally by the following day, depending on the repair.
It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?
Generally, yes. Tell us what was done before.
Can you repair a hole in a bath?
In most cases. Photos of the hole and the underside help us check.
Are you a vetted contractor?
We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.
What if the damage is worse than the pictures show?
We stop, show you and agree any change before carrying on. Nothing extra is done without your say-so.
How soon can you come?
It depends on the time of year and where you are. Send photos with your postcode and we’ll reply with the earliest dates.
Do you cover Overpool?
We do. Repair technicians travel to Overpool from across the region, and the price is the same as everywhere else.
