Different materials, different repairs
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.
Composite and resin
Composite baths are dense and solid. Chips and scratches are filled and matched, in much the same way.

FAQs for Coedffranc
What happens once I’ve sent photos?
We review the photos and send a fixed quote and the next dates we have.
What if the damage is worse than the photos show?
If we find something the pictures didn’t show, we explain it first. You decide whether to go ahead.
Do you come to Coedffranc?
We do. We send a technician to Coedffranc for every job, and the price is the same as everywhere else.
Can you redo an old repair?
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 picture of the hole and one from under the bath if you can.
Is a cracked acrylic bath repairable?
Most of the time. The back of the crack is strengthened before the front is filled and refinished, so access behind the panel is important.
Will it make a mess?
Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and tidy up before we leave.
Is there a guarantee?
Yes: twelve months. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.
When we would advise against a repair
Not everything can be repaired, and we’ll tell you before we start. We can’t fix:
- Water coming from the waste or taps rather than the bath
- Wear across the whole surface, which needs re-enamelling
- Flexing caused by a failed cradle or loose feet
Not sure? Send photos and we’ll give you a straight answer.

Repairing versus replacing in Coedffranc
Replacing a bath rarely stops at the bath: tiles along the rim generally crack when it comes out, the panel may not fit the new one, and a plumber has to disconnect and reconnect everything. Repairing the damage avoids all of that. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

What we are called out for in Coedffranc

- Chips on the rim or sides
- Rust by the waste and overflow
- Snagging damage from a refit
- A kit repair that didn’t last

DIY repairs versus a professional job
If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.
For a hairline mark somewhere you will never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.
