How we handle bath repair in Caol
A typical bath repair is a few hours’ work, and you can generally bathe again the day after. You won’t need a plumber or tiler, because nothing is disconnected. We regularly repair whirlpool & spa baths, cast iron enamel and pressed steel enamel, and people most frequently call us about snagging damage from a refit and scuffs and scratches in the surface.
The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If there’s a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it.

What we cannot put right
Not everything can be repaired, and we would rather say so up front. Repairs won’t solve:
- Rust that has eaten right through a steel bath
- Cracks in acrylic we can’t reach from underneath
- A bath worn all over, where resurfacing makes more sense
If in doubt, send photos and we’ll say what we think before booking.
Surfaces we repair
- Pressed steel enamel
- Cast iron enamel
- Roll-top & freestanding
- Acrylic
- Whirlpool & spa baths
Different materials, different repairs
Cast iron
Cast iron baths are so heavy that repairing in place makes obvious sense. The enamel is the part that wears or chips, and that is the part we put right.
Acrylic
Acrylic is light and warm to the touch, but it relies on good support. Cracks are strengthened from behind before the front is finished.
Signs you need bath repair in Caol
Baths take more knocks than people expect: bottles, shower heads and razors are dropped every day, and fittings press hard against the enamel. Sooner or later, most baths pick up a chip.
Common reasons people in Caol contact us include:
- Damage done while the bathroom was being fitted
- Chips along the edge of the bath
- Deep scratches in acrylic
- A failed DIY repair that is discoloured or lifting

How it works
Your technician turns up when we said we would and checks the damage against your photos 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 protect the bath and the floor around it.
- 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 following day.
How to prepare
- Clear the area around the damage
- Let us know which floor the room is on
- Have a window or extractor fan available

Can I fix it myself?
If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.
Repair or replace: which is better?
For damage in one or two places, a repair is the obvious choice. It’s a fraction of the cost of a new bath and fitting, it’s done in one visit, and nothing else in the room changes. Our bath repair starts from £95. Our prices are the same across the UK, with no extra for Caol. What changes the price is the job itself: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.
Why book with us
- Rooms protected and left tidy
- One price list for the entire UK
- Usually one visit, start to finish

What affects the price in Caol
Prices start from £95. We price every job individually. The main factors are:
- Whether we combine several jobs
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- What the surface is made of
- The size and number of damaged areas
There are no surprise extras on the day. The price we quote from your photos is the price you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.
Quotes from your pictures
Before you send pictures, these tips help us give you a firm price:
- A wider photo showing the entire bath
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- One sharp close-up of the damage
Pricing is simple: snap the damage close up and then the entire item, send them to us with your postcode, and you will get a fixed price back. Quotes are free and no obligation.

How to care for the repair
Simple care helps the repair last. Our advice:
- Have new chips seen to early
- Clean with warm water and a mild detergent
- A dripping tap stains enamel, so fix it early
- Don’t leave razors or cans standing in the bath
A repaired bath needs no special treatment, just sensible cleaning. Skip bleach and gritty creams.
Tape over a fresh chip or crack until it’s repaired, so water can’t get in. Take it off before we arrive.
