Common problems we fix in Coley Park
Heavy toiletries are the biggest single cause of chips, with dropped shower heads close behind. Taps and wastes cause problems too: water collects there, so chips nearby rust quickly.
Send us a picture if you notice any of these:
- Hairline or through cracks in acrylic
- Chips under the taps
- An old repair that has yellowed or come loose
- Scuffs and scratches in the surface
Questions to ask before booking
- Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?

- What prep work is covered
- When it can be used again
About our bath repair in Coley Park
A repair fixes just the damaged area and blends it into the rest of the bath, which costs far less than replacing a fitted bath. Most baths can be used again the following day. If you are dealing with snagging damage from a refit and rusty patches near the plughole, we can help, on whirlpool & spa baths, pressed steel enamel and roll-top & freestanding alike.
A one-year guarantee comes with the work, just as it does everywhere we cover.

What bath repair costs
Repairs from £95. We do not charge extra for travel to Coley Park. The price comes down to:
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- Access to the area
- What kind of damage it is
- Whether we combine several jobs
There are no surprise extras on the day. The price we quote from your pictures is the price you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.
Quotes from your photos
Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what we need:
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- Natural light rather than flash
- Details of any past repairs
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
Upload a photo of the damage and a wider shot of the entire item, with your RG1 postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed price.
What we cannot put right
Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair won’t do:
- Flexing caused by a failed cradle or loose feet
- A steel bath rusted through
- A whole bath that is dull or worn, where a full re-enamel is the better fix
Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly before booking.

The process
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 we leave the room as we found it.
- We start by cleaning the damage and taking out loose enamel and rust.
- The chip or crack is filled, then sanded level with the bath.
- The colour is mixed on the spot to match your bath.
- We apply the finish coats and polish the repair so it blends in.
- We leave it to cure; you can usually use the bath the day after.
How to prepare
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
- Tell us about parking, stairs or access
- Keep a parking space free if you can
Ask for a price
You do not need a survey visit. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote.
Related advice
Should I try a DIY kit first?
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.
A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.
Your questions about bath repair in Coley Park
What do you need from me?
Send photos through the quote form or call 0345 017 0787, and we’ll do the rest.
Is there any odour?
Some materials have a smell while they’re applied, so we ventilate the room. It fades as everything cures.
How invisible is a bath repair?
We aim for a repair you cannot easily find. The rest of the bath’s condition makes a difference.
Are you accredited?
We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.
Is there a guarantee?
Yes, for a year. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.
Can you quote from photos?
In nearly every case. We only ask to see it in person if the pictures cannot show what we need.
Will the repair last?
A properly prepared repair should last a long time, and ours come with a one-year guarantee. Gentle cleaning helps it last.
Will the price change on the day?
The price is fixed for what the photos show. Anything extra is discussed before we begin.

Why repair rather than replace?
For damage in one or two places, a repair is the obvious choice. It costs far less than a new bath plus fitting, it takes one visit, and nothing else in the room changes. Our bath repair starts from £95. The price reflects the work involved, not your postcode. You will see the full price before booking, with no extras added later.

Looking after it afterwards
Once the work has cured, treat it gently:
- Rinse the bath after use, especially in hard water areas
- Have new chips seen to early
- Keep abrasive pads and gritty cleaners away from the bath
- Fix dripping taps early to stop staining and limescale
Give the repair the full curing time we recommend before using the bath. From then on, mild cleaning is all it needs.
Stop using the bath if a crack lets water through until it’s repaired. Water under the bath can damage the floor and the ceiling below.
