About our bath repair in Collingbourne Kingston

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, with the colour mixed on site so the repair is hard to spot. We work on acrylic, cast iron enamel and roll-top & freestanding, and common reasons people contact us are deep scratches in acrylic and cracks in an acrylic bath.

Whatever the size of the job, you get the same one-year guarantee.

Should you replace it?

Replacing a bath rarely stops at the bath: tiles along the rim normally 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. Our bath repair starts from £95. What it costs depends on the type and amount of damage, the material and how many jobs we combine into one visit. You get a fixed price from your pictures, so you know the cost before booking.

Why book with us

Keeping it looking good

Aftercare is simple:

  • Keep metal cans and razors off the surface
  • Ensure an acrylic bath is firm underfoot
  • Fix dripping taps early to stop staining and limescale
  • Cover the bath during DIY or decorating

In the first few days, avoid putting weight or bottles on the repair. After that, clean it as you would the rest of the bath without abrasive products.

Stop using the bath if a crack lets water through until it’s repaired. Leaks under a bath can damage floors and ceilings.

Can I fix it myself?

If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely and work on a clean, dry surface, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is normally cheaper.

Signs you need bath repair in Collingbourne Kingston

Most bath damage comes from something dropped: bottles, shower heads, tiles and tools. On steel and cast iron baths, any chip down to the metal lets water in, and rust follows.

Signs it’s time to call us include:

  • Cracks in an acrylic bath
  • Rust by the waste and overflow
  • An old repair that has yellowed or come loose
  • Snagging damage from a refit

Questions to ask before you book

  • What aftercare is recommended
  • What happens if the damage is worse than the photos show
  • How long it needs to cure
  • How the room is protected while they work

10 questions to ask before you book

Prices and what affects them

Prices start from £95. Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we look at:

  • How many items we do on one visit
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • The material

The price reflects the work involved, not your postcode. The full price is agreed before booking, with nothing added on the day.

Getting a price from pictures

We price nearly every job from pictures. This is what to send:

  • A wider photo showing the entire bath
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • One sharp close-up of the damage

Upload a picture of the damage and a wider shot of the whole item, with your SN8 postcode, and we’ll come back with a fixed quote.

What your bath is made of matters

Composite and resin

Stone resin and composite baths are heavy and solid. Chips and scratches are filled and matched, just like other baths.

Pressed steel

Pressed steel is thinner and lighter, with an enamel finish like cast iron. Exposed steel rusts fast, especially around the waste, so early repairs matter.

Collingbourne Kingston: your questions answered

How long before I can use the bath?

Typically within a day, though it depends on what we have done.

Can a cracked acrylic bath be fixed?

In most cases. We reinforce the crack from behind, then fill and refinish the front, so we need access under the bath.

Which areas do you work in?

We work UK-wide. Prices do not change with location.

How do I get a price for bath repair in Collingbourne Kingston?

Prices start from £95. Because every job differs, we price from photos. You know the full cost before anything is booked.

How do I book?

Just pictures, your postcode and a contact number. On the day, we only need access to the room.

Do you work for landlords and businesses?

Yes, often. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.

Can you price it without visiting?

Generally, yes. Clear photos let us give you a fixed quote without visiting.

Can pets and children be at home?

Yes, as long as they stay out of the room we are working in. We will tell you when the room can be used again.

How it works

Nothing needs to be moved out of the room. We bring everything we need with us, put protection down and get going once we’ve agreed what we are doing. It normally takes a morning or an afternoon, and you’re welcome to carry on with your day while we work.

  1. First, we check the damage against your pictures and agree the plan.
  2. Any rust and loose material comes out, and the area is degreased.
  3. The damage is filled in layers and shaped to the curve of the bath.
  4. The colour is tinted by hand until it matches.
  5. Finally, it’s polished to match the shine and left to cure.

Preparing for the visit

  • Make sure the room can be ventilated
  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
  • Make sure the area is dry

How to get a price

No survey visit is needed: we price from photos. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through.

When we’d advise against a repair

We won’t take on work that will not last, so these are the limits:

  • A whole bath that’s dull or worn, where a full re-enamel is the better fix
  • Cracks in acrylic we can’t reach from underneath
  • Leaks from the waste or overflow fittings (a plumber’s job)

Not sure? Send pictures and we’ll give you a straight answer before booking.
