How we handle bath repair in Cock Alley
We have repaired just about every kind of bath damage: dropped-bottle chips, plughole rust, acrylic cracks and impact holes. All of it is repaired where the bath stands with a one-year guarantee. We regularly repair cast iron enamel, roll-top & freestanding and acrylic, and people most often call us about scratches you can feel with a fingernail and holes from dropped items.
You’re covered after we leave: each job carries a one-year guarantee, and we will explain exactly what it covers when we quote.

How we price bath repair
Prices start from £95. There’s no charge for travel to Cock Alley. The price depends on:
- How much damage there is
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- The material and finish
- How hard the colour is to match
Rather than charging by the hour, we price the entire job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access.
How to get a fixed quote
Good pictures mean an accurate price. Here’s what helps:
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- What it’s made of, if you know
Call 0345 017 0787 or use the quote form. With one close-up and one wider picture, we can price the job without visiting.
Repairs by material
Composite and resin
Stone resin and composite baths are heavy and solid. Chips and scratches are filled and matched, in much the same way.
Pressed steel
Steel baths are lighter than cast iron, but have a similar enamel surface. Exposed steel rusts fast, especially around the waste, so repair chips early.
Looking after it afterwards
Once the work has cured, treat it gently:
- Protect the bath with a towel when doing jobs nearby
- Keep metal cans and razors off the surface
- Clean with warm water and a mild detergent
- Fix dripping taps early to stop staining and limescale
There’s nothing special to do after a repair. Avoid bleach-based and gritty cleaners and rinse after use.
Avoid standing in a cracked acrylic bath until it’s fixed. Each time it flexes, the crack grows, and water can get through to the floor below.
When we would advise against a repair
A repair isn’t right for every job, including:
- A whole bath that is dull or worn, where a full re-enamel is the better fix
- Metal that has corroded all the way through
- Leaking fittings, which need a plumber
If in doubt, send photos and we will say what we think.
What we work on

Do you need bath repair in Cock Alley?
The usual cause is something heavy dropped into the bath, and building work is a common culprit. Cracks in acrylic have a different cause: poor support underneath, so the bath flexes when it’s full.
Signs it’s time to call us include:
- Rusty patches near the plughole
- A hole punched through by something heavy
- An old repair that has yellowed or come loose
- Damage done while the bathroom was being fitted
Questions to ask before you book

- Who turns up on the day
- If travel is included in the price
DIY repairs versus a professional job
If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely and work on a clean, dry surface, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.

Yes, we often do. Removing the old work can add time, and that’s in the quote.
The process
When we visit, we arrive at the time we have agreed, cover the area with dust sheets and masking, and set to work. The job normally takes two to three hours for most chips. We clean up when we’re done and let you know when you can use it again.
- We protect the bath and the floor around it.
- The damaged area is cleaned, keyed and degreased, and any rust is treated.
- We fill it, let it set, then sand it flush.
- Colour and gloss are matched to the surrounding surface.
- We tidy up and tell you when the bath can be used, typically the day after.
Getting ready for the visit
- Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
- Keep a parking space free if you can
