About our bath repair in Coxley
A typical bath repair is a few hours’ work, and you can typically bathe again the day after. There’s no need to book a plumber or tiler, because the bath doesn’t move. We are often asked to fix an old repair that has yellowed or come loose and scratches you can feel with a fingernail, on pressed steel enamel, whirlpool & spa baths and roll-top & freestanding.
The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If there is a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it.

What bath repair costs
Repairs from £95. A fixed quote means you know the cost before booking. We look at:
- How many areas need work
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- The colour and finish to match
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
The price depends on the type and amount of damage, the material and how many jobs we combine into one visit. We give a fixed price from your photos, so there are no surprises on the day.
How to get a fixed price
Before you send photos, these tips help us give you a firm price:
- A wider photo showing the entire bath
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- Any details about the material
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
You do not need a survey visit. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we will come back to you with a fixed figure.
DIY kit or professional repair?
For a hairline mark somewhere you will never see, a kit may be enough. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, it’s worth having it done properly.
If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, make sure the area is clean and completely dry, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.
When to call us in Coxley
A cracked acrylic bath normally wasn’t supported properly. Legs that aren’t adjusted, a missing cradle or a soft floor let the bath move until the acrylic gives way.
The most common problems we are called about are:
- A hole punched through by something heavy
- Deep scratches in acrylic
- A chipped rim or side
- Hairline or through cracks in acrylic
What your quote should include
- Who will actually do the work
- Whether the price covers travel
- How to care for the finish
- What preparation is included
Repairs by material
Composite and resin
Stone resin and composite baths are heavy and solid, and often freestanding. Chips and scratches are filled and matched, just like other baths.
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.
Why repair rather than replace?
People frequently assume a cracked or chipped bath has to come out. In most cases it doesn’t: a proper repair gives it years more use, and costs far less than the disruption of a replacement. Our bath repair starts from £95. Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is normally a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. The quote lists exactly what you are paying for.
Why us?
- Honest advice, even when it means no job
- Usually one visit, start to finish
- Colour-matched on site
- CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited

FAQs for Coxley
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
Generally, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. We’ll be honest if it’s not worth it.
Will the repair last?
A properly prepared repair should last a long time, and it’s guaranteed for a year. Gentle cleaning helps.
Do you repair coloured baths?
Yes. The colour is mixed on site to suit your bath, including older coloured suites.
Can tenants book a repair?
Of course. Check with your landlord; we can send the quote to them too.
When can I have a bath again?
Normally by the following day, though it depends on what we have done.
Can you repair a hole in a bath?
Generally. Send us a photo of the hole and one from under the bath if you can.
What information do you need?
Some pictures, your postcode and how to reach you. On the day, we only need access to the room.
Is it messy?
We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and we clean up when we have finished.
Keeping it looking good
Once the work has cured, treat it gently:
- Cover the bath during DIY or decorating
- Check that an acrylic bath does not move when you stand in it
- Do not leave razors or cans standing in the bath
- A dripping tap stains enamel, so fix it early
Care for the repair the same way as the bath: a soft cloth and washing-up liquid is all it needs. Avoid scourers and gritty cream 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 it can start to leak underneath.
For landlords and businesses
We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which matters when someone is living in the home.
Rental properties take more wear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.
