Our bath repair service in Coleraine
Bath repair is our most common job. Chips on the rim, rust around the waste and cracks in acrylic are all fixed without removing the bath, normally in one visit. We regularly repair pressed steel enamel, acrylic and cast iron enamel, and people most frequently call us about cracks in an acrylic bath and chips caused by builders.
Your technician turns up when we said we would, introduces themselves and checks the damage against your pictures first. Dust sheets and masking tape go down before any work starts. The work itself takes two to three hours for most chips, and the room is left clean and tidy.
- 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.
- The colour is tinted by hand until it matches.
- The repair is polished to the same gloss as the bath and left to cure.
Pricing in Coleraine

Repair or replace?
Replacing a bath rarely stops at the bath: tiles along the rim generally crack when it comes out, a new panel is often needed, and the plumbing has to be disconnected and refitted. A repair skips all of it.

Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £95. There’s no area surcharge for Coleraine. What changes the price is:
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- The size and number of damaged areas
- How easy the damage is to reach
- The type of damage
Our prices are the same across the UK, so there is no premium for Coleraine. What changes the price is the job itself: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.
Quotes from your photos
You can usually get a fixed price without us visiting. To make it quick:
- A wider photo showing the entire bath
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- What it’s made of, if you know
You don’t need a survey visit. Nearly every job can be priced from pictures: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we will come back to you with a fixed figure.
What a repair can’t fix
We would rather lose a job than do one that won’t last, so these are the limits:
- Metal that has corroded all the way through
- Water coming from the waste or taps rather than the bath
- A bath worn all over, where resurfacing makes more sense
Can I fix it myself?
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: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is generally cheaper.
Landlords, agents and businesses in Coleraine
Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which is easier on the people living there.
For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover, saving last-minute replacements. Several plots can be done in one visit to keep costs down.
Coleraine questions
Is a holed acrylic bath repairable?
In most cases. Send us a picture of the hole and one from under the bath if you can.
Can tenants book a repair?
We’re happy to deal with the tenant, landlord or agent. Just ensure the landlord agrees.
How invisible is a bath repair?
On a glossy bath, you will struggle to find it. On worn enamel, it can look shinier than the rest.
What if the damage is worse than the pictures show?
If we find something the photos didn’t show, we explain it first. The price only changes if you agree.
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
Keep pets and children away from the work area on the day, mainly so nothing gets touched before it has cured.
How do I book?
Photos of the damage, a photo of the whole bath and your postcode. After that, we just agree a date.
Do you work for landlords and businesses?
Yes, often. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.
