Our bath repair service in CV4
It pays to repair bath damage while it’s small. On steel and cast iron, exposed metal starts to rust, while cracks in acrylic grow each time the bath moves. Repairing it stops the damage getting worse. Common call-outs are for a hole punched through by something heavy and chips along the edge of the bath, on roll-top & freestanding, cast iron enamel and whirlpool & spa baths.
It’s a tidy, low-fuss visit. We agree the arrival time in advance, protect the area, then carry out the work, which normally takes a morning or an afternoon. If we find something your pictures didn’t show, we’ll explain it before carrying on.
- We start by looking at the damage and confirming the plan with you.
- Any rust and loose material comes out, and the area is degreased.
- We build up the filler in layers, shaping it to the bath.
- We tint the finish by hand to match the bath.
- Finally, it’s polished to match the shine and left to cure.
Pricing in CV4
Prices start from £95. No two jobs are quite the same, so we price each one individually. The size and type of damage, the material and access all play a part, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.
Why choose Surface Doctor

- Everything repaired in place

Repairs by material
Composite and resin
Stone resin and composite baths are heavy and solid. Chips and scratches are filled and matched, in much the same way.
Cast iron
Cast iron is heavy and rigid, with a fused enamel surface. A chip down to the iron can rust, but the body of the bath lasts a very long time, which makes it well worth repairing.
Landlord and trade work in CV4
Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs in Coventry and across the UK. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which is easier on the people living there.
Rental properties take more wear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.
What we are called out for in CV4
Baths take more knocks than people expect: bottles, shower heads and razors are dropped every day, and taps and wastes are tightened against the surface. Sooner or later, most baths pick up a chip.
Customers normally contact us about:
- Rust spots around the plughole
- An old repair that has yellowed or come loose
- Hairline or through cracks in acrylic
- Damage done while the bathroom was being fitted
Repairing versus replacing
Cast iron baths in particular are worth repairing: getting one out, particularly from an upstairs bathroom, is a big job, and a like-for-like replacement can be expensive. A repair keeps it in place.

Aftercare tips
Most damage we see is avoidable. These habits help:
- Give the bath a quick rinse after use
- Make sure an acrylic bath is firm underfoot
- Stick to mild cleaners and a soft cloth
- Don’t leave razors or cans standing in the bath
Keep metal objects like razors and cans off the surface, because they can mark the enamel. A dripping tap should be fixed early, too.
A small chip is a quick job. Leave them and they collect dirt, stain and, on metal baths, rust, so early repair saves time and money.
CV4: your questions answered
Can you redo an old repair?
Yes, we do this often. We strip it out, deal with any rust and repair it again.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
Generally, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. If it is not worth repairing, we’ll tell you.
Do the materials smell?
Expect a mild smell while we are working that clears as it cures.
Can landlords book you?
Yes, frequently. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.
Which areas do you work in?
Everywhere in the UK, CV4 included. There’s no extra charge for travel.
Is a cracked acrylic bath repairable?
In most cases. The back of the crack is strengthened before the front is filled and refinished, so access behind the panel is important.
What happens after I send photos?
We look at the photos and reply with a fixed price and some dates. If we need another angle, we’ll ask.
