Bath chip & crack repair in Cossington, Leicestershire

Repair or replace: which is better?
When the bath is otherwise sound, repairing beats replacing. It costs less, takes less time and causes far less upheaval, and you keep the bath you chose. Where the whole surface is tired, we may suggest re-enamelling instead. Prices start from £95. No two jobs are quite the same, so each one is priced on its own. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all play a part, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.
Why us?
- Everything repaired in place
- We come to you, anywhere in the UK
- One-year guarantee on every repair
- Normally one visit, start to finish

How we handle bath repair in Cossington
A repair fixes just the damaged area and blends it into the rest of the bath, which is far cheaper than replacing a fitted bath and the tiles around it. You can generally use the bath the next day. We regularly repair roll-top & freestanding, pressed steel enamel and whirlpool & spa baths, and the jobs we see most are scratches you can feel with a fingernail and impact holes in acrylic.
Whatever the size of the job, it’s backed by a one-year guarantee in Cossington and across Leicestershire.

How the visit works
Visits start with a quick look at the job together. Next, we cover and mask everything nearby and we start. You can expect it to take two to three hours for most chips, and we will keep you posted as we go.
- We clean the area and remove any loose enamel or rust.
- The chip or crack is filled, then sanded level with the bath.
- The colour is mixed on the spot to match your bath.
- We build up the finish and polish it into the surrounding enamel.
- Once it has cured, normally by the following day, the bath is ready to use.
Getting ready for the visit
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
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 will reply with a fixed quote. There’s no charge for the quote and no obligation.
Related advice
What we are called out for in Cossington
A cracked acrylic bath usually wasn’t supported properly. Legs that are not adjusted, a missing cradle or a soft floor let the base flex until the acrylic gives way.
It’s worth getting a quote if you see:
- A kit repair that didn’t last
- Damage done while the bathroom was being fitted
- Chips along the edge of the bath
- Rusty patches near the plughole
What to look for in a quote
- How to look after the finish
- What preparation is included
- How the room is protected while they work
- Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT
Keeping it looking good
Once the work has cured, treat it gently:
- Have new chips seen to early
- Keep abrasive pads and gritty cleaners away from the bath
- Store metal items away from the bath
- A dripping tap stains enamel, so fix it early
Keep metal objects like razors and cans off the surface, as they can leave rust marks. A dripping tap should be fixed early, too.
If an acrylic bath has a crack, stop showering in it until it’s repaired. Each time it flexes, the crack grows, and water can get through to the floor below.
When a repair isn’t the answer
In fairness, there are a few things a repair will not fix:
- A whole bath that is dull or worn, where a full re-enamel is the better fix
- A steel bath rusted through
- Cracks in parts of an acrylic bath we cannot get to from below
Send us pictures and we will tell you honestly.

Landlord and trade work in Cossington
We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Cossington as well as householders. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it typically costs far less than a refit.
We are used to working with agents and managing companies. Just send photos, the address and how to get access and we will arrange it.
Can I fix it myself?
A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it will not stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair will not last.

Common questions in Cossington
Can you repair a crack in an acrylic bath?
Often, yes, as long as we can get to the back of the crack to support it. Take off the bath panel and check, or send us a picture.
Is a bath repair permanent?
Yes, if it’s prepared properly and the bath is sound. It’s covered by our one-year guarantee.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
Typically, when the rest is in good condition. A repair avoids removal and making good. If replacing would be better, we will say so.
Do I have to be there?
Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time we agree with you.
When can I have a bath again?
Usually the following day. We confirm the time before we leave.
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
In most cases. We remove the old repair before doing a new one.
Will you leave a mess?
Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and we clean up when we’ve finished.
Can I get a quote without a visit?
Generally, yes. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed quote.
