How we handle bath repair in Coombs
We repair just the damaged spot and colour-match it to the bath, which costs far less than replacing a fitted bath. Most baths can be used again the following day. We work on acrylic, cast iron enamel and pressed steel enamel, and the jobs we see most are scratches you can feel with a fingernail and holes from dropped items.
Whatever the size of the job, it’s backed by a one-year guarantee.

- Scuffs and scratches in the surface
- A chipped rim or side
- A cracked acrylic bath
- Rusty patches near the plughole

What happens on the day
The work is clean and fairly quiet. Protection goes down first, then the job itself takes a few hours. At the end we talk you through how soon it can be used and how to care for it.
- We clean the area and remove any loose enamel or rust.
- The chip or crack is filled, then sanded level with the bath.
- We tint the finish on the day to suit your bath’s shade of white or colour.
- We build up the finish and polish it into the surrounding enamel.
- The repair is left to cure, and most baths can be used the day after.
Getting ready for the visit
- Let us know which floor the room is on
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access

Coombs: your questions answered
When can I have a bath again?
Normally the next day. We will tell you the exact curing time when we finish.
How quickly can you book me in?
That depends on our diary for your area. We will offer you dates when we send your quote.
Do you work in Coombs?
We do. We send a technician to Coombs for every job, with no extra charge for travel.
Can you do more than one item on the same visit?
Yes. Doing several items on one visit generally costs less than separate visits. Include pictures of each item.
What happens once I’ve sent pictures?
We check the damage, the material and your postcode, then reply with a quote and the next dates we have.
What do you need from me?
Some photos, your postcode and how to reach you. On the day, access to the room.
Which areas do you work in?
Everywhere in the UK, Coombs included. There’s no extra charge for travel.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
Generally, if the item is otherwise sound. A repair avoids removal and making good. We will tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.
When we’d advise against a repair
Some jobs aren’t right for a repair, for example:
- A bath that moves underfoot, until its support is fixed
- Leaking fittings, which need a plumber
- A whole bath that’s dull or worn, where a full re-enamel is the better fix
Not sure? Send pictures and we will give you a straight answer before you book.

Prices and what affects them
Repairs from £95. Each job gets its own fixed quote. These are the things that affect it:
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- What kind of damage it is
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- Doing more than one item at once
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’ll get a fixed figure.
Send photos for a quote
You can generally get a fixed quote without us visiting. To make it quick:
- Something in shot to show the size
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- Any details about the material
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us pictures through the quote form. With one close-up and one wider picture, we can give you a fixed quote without visiting.
Materials and what they mean for the repair
Pressed steel
Steel baths and trays have a thin metal body under the enamel. Exposed steel rusts quickly, so the metal is treated and sealed before the repair.
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.
DIY kit or professional repair?
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is generally cheaper.
