About our bath repair in Coldeast
A damaged bath doesn’t have to mean a new bathroom. We fill the damage, shape it to the curve of the bath and refinish it, mixing the colour on the day. Whether it’s damage done while the bathroom was being fitted and scratches you can feel with a fingernail, we can help, whatever the material.
Every job is backed for twelve months, and the guarantee is the same wherever you live. We return to put right any problem with the work.

Common questions in Coldeast
Can you repair a failed DIY repair?
Yes. We remove the old filler and start again. Tell us about it when you send pictures.
How long does the repair take to cure?
Most baths can be used the next day. We’ll tell you the exact curing time when we finish.
What does bath repair cost?
Prices start from £95. The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from pictures. You’ll get a fixed figure before you book.
Can you fix rust around the plughole?
Yes. We take out the rust and any loose enamel, seal and fill the area, then colour-match the finish.
What happens next?
You will get a fixed quote back, generally with dates to choose from. You are under no obligation.
What information do you need?
Just photos, your postcode and a contact number. On the day, we only need access to the room.

How to look after the repair
Aftercare is simple, and it makes a real difference:
- Don’t leave razors or cans standing in the bath
- Protect the bath with a towel when doing jobs nearby
- Don’t scrub with anything abrasive
- Give the bath a quick rinse after use
Don’t leave razors, cans or hair grips in the bath, as they can leave rust marks. A dripping tap should be fixed early, too.
Stop using the bath if a crack lets water through. Leaks under a bath can damage floors and ceilings.
Do you need bath repair in Coldeast?
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.
Clients normally contact us about:
- An old repair that has yellowed or come loose
- Damage beneath the taps
- Rusty patches near the plughole
- Snagging damage from a refit

For landlords and businesses
Letting agents frequently send us photos straight from the inventory. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.
Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.
How we price bath repair
Repairs from £95. Each job gets its own fixed price. This is what makes a difference:
- How hard the colour is to match
- Doing more than one item at once
- The material and finish
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is normally a fraction of the price, because there’s no removal, plumbing or making good. The quote lists exactly what you are paying for.
Getting a price from photos
We price nearly every job from pictures. This is what to send:
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- Natural light rather than flash
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
Upload a photo of the damage and one of the entire item, with your TQ12 postcode, and we’ll come back with a fixed quote.
Can I fix it myself?
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, then guarantee it for a year.
For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, a professional repair is worth it.
What your bath is made of matters
Acrylic
Acrylic is light and warm to the touch, but it needs firm support underneath. Repairs to cracks are reinforced from the back.
Pressed steel
Steel baths are lighter than cast iron, but have a similar enamel surface. Chips rust quickly on steel, especially around the waste, so early repairs matter.

What a repair cannot fix
Not everything can be repaired, and we’d rather say so up front. We cannot fix:
- A bath that flexes because its feet or cradle have failed (that needs fixing first)
- Cracks in parts of an acrylic bath we can’t get to from below
- A bath worn all over, where resurfacing makes more sense
If in doubt, send pictures and we will say what we think before booking.
Materials we repair
- Acrylic
- Cast iron enamel
- Pressed steel enamel
- Roll-top & freestanding
- Whirlpool & spa baths

How the visit works
Visits start with a quick look at the job together, so you know exactly what we’re doing. After that, protection goes down around the work area and the work begins. Allow a morning or an afternoon, and we will keep you posted as we go.
- 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.
- We tint the finish by hand to match the bath.
- Finally, it’s polished to match the shine and left to cure.
Before we arrive
- Open a window if you can
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
How to get a price
A quote takes minutes to ask for: take one close-up and one wider shot of the bath, add your postcode and send them to us. You will get a fixed price, not an estimate.
