How we price bath repair
Prices start from £95. There’s no charge for travel to Colgate. The price depends on:
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- How much damage there is
- Access to the area
- How hard the colour is to match
Instead of hourly rates, we price the entire job up front. Damage, material and access decide it, and doing several items at once reduces it.
Getting a price from pictures
Two or three clear photos are generally enough. It helps if you send:
- Any details about the material
- A picture taken from further back
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
Email us a picture of the damage and one of the whole item, with your RH13 postcode, and we’ll come back with a fixed quote.
Bath repair in Colgate, done in place
Chips, cracks, rust spots and small holes can be repaired with the bath left exactly where it is. Nothing is unplumbed, your tiles stay as they are, and the finish is matched to the rest of the bath. Whether it’s a failed DIY repair that’s discoloured or lifting and chips under the taps, we can help.
The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If something isn’t right in that time, we come back and put it right.

Common questions in Colgate
Do you work in Colgate?
Yes. We work across the UK and travel to Colgate. Send us pictures for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
Is a bath repair permanent?
Yes, if it’s prepared properly and the bath is sound. It’s covered by our one-year guarantee.
What if the damage is worse than the pictures show?
The price is fixed for what the pictures show. Anything extra is discussed before we begin.
Will it make a mess?
We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and we clean up when we have finished.
When can you do it?
It depends on the time of year and where you are. Send photos with your postcode and we will reply with the earliest dates.
Can you repair a hole in a bath?
In most cases. Photos of the hole and the underside help us check.
Can you redo an old repair?
Yes. We take out the old repair and do it properly. Tell us about it when you send photos.
I rent my home. Can I book you?
We’re happy to deal with the tenant, landlord or agent. Get your landlord’s agreement first.
What we do, step by step
There is not much you need to do on the day. Let us in and show us the room, and we will take it from there. Most visits take two to three hours for most chips.
- We protect the bath and the floor around it.
- We clean, key and degrease the damage.
- We fill it, let it set, then sand it flush.
- We match both the colour and the shine.
- We clear up and give you the curing time, normally until the next day.
Getting ready for the visit
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
- Let us know if it has been repaired before
- Point us to the nearest place to park
Ask for a price
Getting a price is easy: take a close-up of the damage and a photo from further back, send them over with your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote. There is no charge for the quote and you are under no obligation.
Advice
What your bath is made of matters
Composite and resin
Composite baths are dense and solid, and frequently freestanding. Chips and scratches can be filled and colour matched, just like other baths.
Pressed steel
Under the enamel of a steel bath is thin metal. Once a chip exposes it, rust follows quickly, so we treat and seal the metal before filling.
What we cannot put right
We will not take on work that won’t last, so here’s what a repair can’t put right:
- Metal that has corroded all the way through
- Cracks in acrylic we cannot reach from underneath
- Water coming from the waste or taps rather than the bath
Send us pictures and we will tell you honestly.
What we work on
- Acrylic
- Pressed steel enamel
- Roll-top & freestanding
- Whirlpool & spa baths
- Cast iron enamel
Should I try a DIY kit first?
For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll 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.
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully and work on a clean, dry surface, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.

Do you need bath repair in Colgate?
Many chips happen while the bathroom is being fitted. Tradespeople drop tools and tiles into the bath, frequently before anyone notices. We repair snagging damage like this regularly.
Contact us if you’ve noticed:
- Snagging damage from a refit
- Rust by the waste and overflow
- A kit repair that didn’t last
- Impact holes in acrylic

Should you replace it?
Replacing a fitted bath generally means a plumber, lifting out the old bath, making good the tiles and panel and getting rid of the old bath. Repairing it fixes just the damaged area in one visit. Prices start from £95. No two jobs are quite the same, so each one is priced on its own. The size and type of damage, the material and access all play a part, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.
