We have discovered a hole in our bath which probably was caused by ourselves when removing tiles.
The bath is made of fibreglass. Is there anyway to repair it?
 
If the hole is small, it's easy enough to repair by using epoxy resin - just pack it in from the underside of the bath and leave to dry overnight. It can then be sanded down and probably painted if required too.

If it's a large hole I'm not sure what options you have - probably not many.
 
if it's a small hole/crack you can get stuff cheap from any shop that sell repair kits for fibreglass surf boards.
 
Caveat and Webtax thanks for your replies, how small are we talking?
Foamcutter, thanks, will call them tomorrow.
We are tiling our bathroom at the moment and would have to stall on tiling around the bath as we don't know if it could be repaired or we would have to change the bath. However we do need this completed urgently as the baby is getting too big for a small bath.
 
how big is the hole? either a cheap diy job or one of the companies listed by foamcutter should do it without changing the bath.
