Bath Repair in Up Holland
Chip and crack repairs to enamel, acrylic and cast iron baths at your home in Up Holland, with a one-year guarantee on every repair.
- Repairs from £95
- Damage done while the bathroom was being fitted
- Chips on the rim or sides

Aftercare tips
Once the work has cured, treat it gently:
- Don’t scrub with anything abrasive
- Have new chips seen to early
- Don’t leave razors or cans standing in the bath
- Use a soft cloth and washing-up liquid for everyday cleaning
Give the repair the full curing time we recommend before running a bath. After that, gentle cleaning keeps it looking good.
Stop using the bath if a crack lets water through until it’s repaired. Leaks under a bath can damage floors and ceilings.
About our bath repair in Up Holland
Small damage on a bath is worth repairing early. On steel and cast iron, exposed metal starts to rust, and on acrylic, a crack keeps spreading while the bath flexes. A repair stops both. Typical jobs include a hole punched through by something heavy and a failed DIY repair that’s discoloured or lifting, across cast iron enamel, pressed steel enamel and roll-top & freestanding.
Every job is backed for twelve months, and the guarantee is the same wherever you live. If something goes wrong with the work, we come back.

Can I fix it myself?
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it does not stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.
Different materials, different repairs
Acrylic
Acrylic feels warm and is light, but it needs firm support underneath. Cracks are strengthened from behind before the front is finished.
Composite and resin
Composite baths are dense and solid, and often freestanding. Chips and scratches can be filled and colour matched, in much the same way.
FAQs for Up Holland
Do you charge for travel?
We do not add a call-out fee. The fixed price covers the visit and the work.
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
We ask you to keep children and pets out of the room while we work and until it has cured. The rest of the house is unaffected.
I tried a repair kit. Can you fix it?
Regularly. The old material comes out, any rust is treated, then we repair it properly.
Can you repair a hole in a bath?
In most cases. Send us a photo of the hole and one from under the bath if you can.
Can you fix rust around the plughole?
Yes, it’s one of the most common repairs we do. The rust is cut back to clean metal and sealed before we fill and finish it.
Do you work in Up Holland?
Yes, we do. Technicians travel to Up Holland from across the region, and the price is the same as everywhere else.
How invisible is a bath repair?
On a glossy bath, you will struggle to find it. On older, dull enamel the repair can look glossier than the area around it.
Are you a vetted contractor?
We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.
The process
We work cleanly and quietly. Protection goes down first, then the work takes a few hours, depending on the damage. At the end we talk you through the curing time and the aftercare.
- We start by looking at the damage and confirming the plan with you.
- Any rust and loose material comes out, and the area is degreased.
- The damage is filled in layers and shaped to the curve of the bath.
- We tint the finish by hand to match the bath.
- The repair is polished to the same gloss as the bath and left to cure.
How to prepare
- Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
- Point us to the nearest place to park
- Open a window if you can
Getting a price

Repair or replace: which is better?
A new bath brings a chain of other jobs: tiles along the rim normally crack when it comes out, the panel may not fit the new one, and a plumber has to disconnect and reconnect everything. A repair skips all of it. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Instead of hourly rates, we price the entire job up front. Damage, material and access decide it.
Why us?
- We’ll tell you if it’s not worth repairing
- Dust sheets down, tidy finish
- No need to remove anything
- One price list for the whole UK

Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £95. You’ll know the full cost before booking. We look at:
- Whether we combine several jobs
- The material
- How many areas need work
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
Our prices are the same across the UK, with no extra for Up Holland. What changes the price is the job itself: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.
Getting a price from pictures
Before you send photos, these tips help us give you a firm price:
- A photo taken from further back
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
For most jobs, pictures are all we need to give you a price. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.
