How we handle bath repair in Copgrove
Chips, cracks, rust spots and small holes can be repaired with the bath left exactly where it is. There is no plumbing to disconnect, your tiles stay as they are, and the finish is matched to the rest of the bath. If you’re dealing with a hole punched through by something heavy and chips caused by builders, we can generally put it right, whatever the material.
The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If there’s a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it.

When a repair is not the answer
A few problems are outside what a surface repair can do:
- Leaks from the waste or overflow fittings (a plumber’s job)
- Wear across the entire surface, which needs re-enamelling
- Cracks in parts of an acrylic bath we cannot get to from below
Send us photos and we will tell you honestly before booking.

Questions from Copgrove
What about rust by the waste?
Yes, it’s one of the most common repairs we do. The rust is cut back to clean metal and sealed before we fill and finish it.
How long before I can use the bath?
Normally by the following day, depending on the repair.
Will you leave a mess?
No. The work area is masked and covered, and we leave the room clean.
Is there any odour?
There can be some smell while we work. It fades as everything cures.
What areas do you cover?
We work UK-wide, so Copgrove is covered. Prices don’t change with location.
Is the work guaranteed?
Yes: twelve months. If there is a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.
Will I be able to see the repair?
The goal is a repair that blends in. How well it disappears depends on the condition of the rest of the bath, and we’ll tell you what to expect.
It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?
Yes, we often do. It can add a little time, which we include in the quote.
Should I try a DIY kit first?
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.
If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, ensure the area is clean and completely dry, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.
For landlords and businesses
We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, putting right damage done during fitting. We’re CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.
Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.

Why repair rather than replace?
Swapping a damaged bath for a new one usually means a plumber, removing the old bath, making good the tiles and panel and getting rid of the old bath. Repairing it deals only with the damage in a single visit. Prices start from £95. There are no surprise extras on the day. What we quote from your pictures is what you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.
Why us?
- A fixed quote before booking
- One price list for the entire UK
- No need to remove anything
- Normally one visit, start to finish

What bath repair costs
Repairs from £95. A fixed quote means you know the cost before you book. We look at:
- How hard the colour is to match
- Doing more than one item at once
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
Compared with replacing, a repair is usually a fraction of the price, because there’s no removal, plumbing or making good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.
How to get a fixed price
You can take the photos on your phone. Ensure they show:
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- Natural light rather than flash
- One picture of the whole bath
- Where you are, by postcode
For most jobs, pictures are all we need to give you a price. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.

Keep an eye out for any of the following:
- Holes from dropped items
- Scratches you can feel with a fingernail
- Damage beneath the taps
- Hairline or through cracks in acrylic

What happens on the day
We work cleanly and quietly, so you can carry on at home. We protect the area first, then the job itself takes two to three hours for most chips. At the end we talk you through 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.
- The damage is filled in layers and shaped to the curve of the bath.
- We tint the finish by hand to match the bath.
- The repair is polished to the same gloss as the bath and left to cure.
Before we arrive
- Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
- Tell us about parking, stairs or access

Aftercare tips
Most damage we see is avoidable. These habits help:
- Put a towel in the bath if you are working above it
- Store metal items away from the bath
- Fix dripping taps early to stop staining and limescale
- Keep abrasive pads and gritty cleaners away from the bath
There’s nothing special to do after a repair, beyond gentle cleaning. Avoid bleach-based and gritty cleaners.
If an acrylic bath has a crack, stop showering in it until it’s repaired. Every use opens the crack a little more, and water can get through to the floor below.
