Bath repair in Colebrook without replacing anything
Most bath damage, from chips and cracks to rust spots and holes, can be repaired with the bath left exactly where it is. There’s no plumbing to disconnect, the tiles are not touched, and the repaired area is colour-matched so it blends in. Our repair technicians work on cast iron enamel, acrylic and whirlpool & spa baths, and people most frequently call us about chips along the edge of the bath and rust spots around the plughole.
A one-year guarantee comes with the work, just as it does everywhere we cover.

Materials and what they mean for the repair
Cast iron
A cast iron bath is heavy enough that most people never want to move it. The enamel is the part that wears or chips, and that’s what we repair.
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.
Repair or replace in Colebrook?
Replacing a bath rarely stops at the bath: the tiles sitting on the rim tend to break, the panel may not fit the new one, and the plumbing has to be disconnected and refitted. Repairing the damage avoids all of that. Prices start from £95. A few things move the price: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

When we would advise against a repair
Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:
- A whole bath that is dull or worn, where a full re-enamel is the better fix
- Cracks in acrylic we can’t reach from underneath
- A steel bath rusted through
If in doubt, send photos and we’ll say what we think before booking.
Surfaces we repair
- Acrylic
- Pressed steel enamel
- Cast iron enamel
- Whirlpool & spa baths

What we do, step by step
It’s a tidy, low-fuss visit. We agree the arrival time in advance, cover and mask the work area, and get on with the job, which typically takes a morning or an afternoon. If anything looks different from your photos, we’ll talk to you before going ahead.
- 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.
- We build up the filler in layers, shaping it to the bath.
- We tint the finish by hand to match the bath.
- The repair is polished to the same gloss as the bath and left to cure.
Preparing for the visit
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
- Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings

How to look after the repair
Aftercare is simple:
- Put a towel in the bath if you are working above it
- Stick to mild cleaners and a soft cloth
- Check that an acrylic bath does not move when you stand in it
- Rinse the bath after use, especially in hard water areas
Give the repair the full curing time we recommend before running a bath. From then on, mild cleaning is all it needs.
A small chip is a quick job. Left alone, they stain and can rust, so it’s worth getting them done early.
Do you need bath repair in Colebrook?
Rust generally starts where water sits, around the waste, under the taps or in an old chip. Water on bare metal causes rust that creeps under the surrounding enamel.
Common reasons people in Colebrook contact us are:
- Deep scratches in acrylic
- Impact holes in acrylic
- Hairline or through cracks in acrylic
- A chip where the taps sit

How much does bath repair cost in Colebrook?
Prices start from £95. Every job gets a fixed price based on photos of the damage. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo and your postcode.
Can you quote from pictures?

Is my repair covered?
Yes: twelve months. If there is a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.
Do the materials smell?
There can be some smell while we work, so we ventilate the room. It clears as the materials cure.

Of course, and it generally saves money. Send pictures of everything together and you will get one combined price.
How long before I can use the bath?
Most baths can be used the following day. We confirm the time before we leave.
