Bath repair in Thorne Coffin without replacing anything
Whether your bath is steel, cast iron or acrylic, we can repair it. The method changes with the material: metal baths need any rust dealt with first, and acrylic cracks need support from behind. If you’re dealing with snagging damage from a refit and chips on the rim or sides, we can normally put it right.
A one-year guarantee comes with the work, just as it does everywhere we cover.

If in doubt, send photos and we’ll say what we think before you book.

Why repair rather than replace?
Think about the hidden costs of a new bath: taking out the old one, plumbing, tiling, a panel and redecorating. A repair is one job, done in one visit. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. We do not add extras on the day. The price we quote from your pictures is the price you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.
Why book with us
- Most jobs done in one visit
- Rooms protected and left tidy
- Colours mixed by hand to suit your surface
- We come to you, anywhere in the UK

How to look after the repair
Simple care helps the repair last. We recommend:
- Get a dripping tap fixed promptly
- Store metal items away from the bath
- Rinse it down after each bath
- Don’t scrub with anything abrasive
Leave the repair to cure for as long as we say before running a bath. From then on, mild cleaning is all it needs.
Stop using the bath if a crack lets water through. Water under the bath can damage the floor and the ceiling below.
Can I fix it myself?
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, then guarantee it for a year.
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
Common problems we fix in Thorne Coffin
A cracked acrylic bath usually wasn’t supported properly. Loose legs, no proper cradle or a floor that gives let the bath move until the acrylic gives way.

Just pictures, your postcode and a contact number. On the day, access to the room.

Is a bath repair durable?
Done properly, a repair lasts for years, and it’s guaranteed for a year. Gentle cleaning helps it last.
Repairs by material
Acrylic
An acrylic bath is a moulded sheet strengthened from below. They do not rust, but they can crack, scratch or be holed, and a crack only stays repaired if it’s supported underneath.
Pressed steel
Under the enamel of a steel bath is thin metal. Exposed steel rusts quickly, so the metal is treated and sealed before the repair.
What happens on the day
We agree an arrival time beforehand, so you know when to expect us. On site, it takes a few hours in most cases. We leave the room clean.
- First, we check the damage against your pictures and agree the plan.
- Any rust and loose material comes out, and the area is degreased.
- We build up the filler in layers, shaping it to the bath.
- The colour is tinted by hand until it matches.
- Finally, it’s polished to match the shine and left to cure.
Getting ready for the visit
- Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
