Bath repair in Old Coulsdon without replacing anything
Most bath damage, from chips and cracks to rust spots and holes, can be repaired with the bath left exactly where it is. There’s no plumbing to disconnect, your tiles stay as they are, and the repaired area is colour-matched so it blends in. Common call-outs are for a failed DIY repair that’s discoloured or lifting and chips under the taps, in acrylic, pressed steel enamel and roll-top & freestanding.
We stand behind the work with a one-year guarantee, so you are covered after the visit.

What affects the price in Old Coulsdon
Prices start from £95. Each job gets its own fixed quote. These are the things that affect it:
- The material
- Doing more than one item at once

- How much damage there is
We don’t add extras on the day. What we quote from your photos is what you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.

It only takes a minute to photograph the damage. Please include:

- Natural light rather than flash
- Something in shot to show the size

When we’d advise against a repair
Some jobs are not right for a repair, for example:
- A bath worn all over, where resurfacing makes more sense
- Cracks in parts of an acrylic bath we cannot get to from below
- A bath that moves underfoot, until its support is fixed
Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly.
Surfaces we repair
- Acrylic
- Roll-top & freestanding
- Whirlpool & spa baths
- Cast iron enamel
- Pressed steel enamel
What happens on the day
Nothing needs to be moved out of the room. Everything we use comes in the van with us, lay protective sheets and get going once we’ve agreed what we are doing. It normally takes a morning or an afternoon, and you are welcome to carry on with your day while we work.
- Dust sheets and masking go down around the bath.
- We clean, key and degrease the damage, and any rust is treated.
- Filler goes in and is sanded flush once it has set.
- Colour and gloss are matched to the surrounding surface.
- We clear up and give you the curing time, normally until the day after.
Getting ready for the visit
- Let us know which floor the room is on
- Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
Ask for a price
Send us a photo of the damage and one of the entire item, with your CR5 postcode, and we’ll come back with a fixed quote.

Signs you need bath repair in Old Coulsdon
Most bath damage comes from something dropped: a shampoo bottle, a shower head, a tile or a tool during a refit. On steel and cast iron baths, a chip that reaches the metal lets water in, and rust follows.
Common reasons people in Old Coulsdon contact us include:
- Scratches you can feel with a fingernail
- Hairline or through cracks in acrylic
- Snagging damage from a refit
- Damage beneath the taps
Comparing quotes
- How the room is protected while they work
- Whether they match the colour on site
- Whether a trained technician does the job
- What happens if the damage is worse than the pictures show
How to care for the repair
How the surface is treated afterwards matters. Here’s what we suggest:
- Fix dripping taps early to stop staining and limescale
- Don’t scrub with anything abrasive
- Give the bath a quick rinse after use
- Cover the bath during DIY or decorating
Give the repair the full curing time we recommend before running a bath. From then on, mild cleaning is all it needs.
If water is getting through a crack, stop using the bath until it’s repaired. Leaks under a bath can damage floors and ceilings.
