When we would advise against a repair
Before booking, it’s worth knowing the limits too:
- Acrylic cracks with no access behind them
- Wear across the whole surface, which needs re-enamelling
- Leaking fittings, which need a plumber
If in doubt, send photos and we’ll say what we think.
What we work on
- Acrylic
- Roll-top & freestanding
- Cast iron enamel
- Whirlpool & spa baths
- Pressed steel enamel
Repairs by material
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 the part we put right.
Composite and resin
Stone resin and composite baths are heavy and solid. Chips and scratches can be filled and colour matched, in much the same way.
What affects the price in Coombe
Repairs from £95. Prices are worked out job by job. What matters most is:
- Access to the area
- What kind of damage it is
- The material and finish
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Photos let us give you the exact figure.
How to get a fixed quote
It only takes a minute to photograph the damage, and it saves a visit. Please include:
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- Natural light rather than flash
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
If you’re in Coombe and want a price, photos are the quickest way: one close up, one from further back, plus your postcode. You will get a fixed quote with dates to choose from.
Repairing versus replacing in Coombe
Replacing a bath rarely stops at the bath: tiles along the rim usually crack when it comes out, the panel may not fit the new one, and the plumbing has to be disconnected and refitted. A repair skips all of it. Our bath repair starts from £95. It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Send pictures and you will get a fixed figure.
What you get with us
- Work done at your home or business
- Nothing taken out or refitted
- A year’s guarantee on all work
- We leave the room as we found it

Common problems we fix in Coombe
Acrylic baths that crack nearly always have a support problem. Legs that aren’t adjusted, a missing cradle or a soft floor let the bath move.
Most people get in touch after spotting something like this:
- Cracks in an acrylic bath
- Holes from dropped items
- Chips on the rim or sides
- Chips caused by builders
Questions to ask before you book
- A fixed price, and whether VAT is included
- What the guarantee covers, and for how long
- What preparation is included
- What happens if they find more damage
Keeping it looking good
Aftercare is simple, and it makes a real difference:
- Put a towel in the bath if you are working above it
- Give the bath a quick rinse after use
- Keep abrasive pads and gritty cleaners away from the bath
- Clean with warm water and a mild detergent
Keep metal objects like razors and cans off the surface, as they can leave rust marks. A dripping tap should be fixed early, too.
Rust spreads under enamel faster than most people expect. A chip the size of a fingernail can become a much larger patch if it’s left for months, so it pays to deal with it early.

How it works
We work cleanly and quietly. Protection goes down first, then the job itself takes a few hours, depending on the damage. Before we leave, we explain the curing time and the aftercare.
- First, we check the damage against your photos and agree the plan.
- Loose enamel, rust and dirt are removed so the repair can bond.
- We build up the filler in layers, shaping it to the bath.
- The colour is tinted by hand until it matches.
- Finally, it’s polished to match the shine and left to cure.
Preparing for the visit
- Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
