Questions from Bishop's Quay
Is it messy?
No. The work area is masked and covered, and we leave the room clean.
It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?
Generally, yes. Tell us what was done before.
Is there a call-out fee?
There’s no separate call-out charge. The fixed price covers the visit and the work.
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children, mainly so nothing gets touched before it has cured.
What do you need from me?
Send pictures through the quote form or call 0345 017 0787, and we will do the rest.
Can you redo an old repair?
Yes. We take out the old repair and do it properly. Tell us about it when you send photos.
Is a cracked acrylic bath repairable?
Most of the time. We reinforce the crack from behind, then fill and refinish the front, so access behind the panel is important.
Are you accredited?
Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.
Bath repair at your home in Bishop's Quay
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. You can normally use the bath the day after. If you are dealing with rust spots around the plughole and impact holes in acrylic, we can help, on roll-top & freestanding, whirlpool & spa baths and cast iron enamel alike.
You’re covered after we leave: our one-year guarantee applies to every job, and we’ll explain exactly what it covers when we quote.

What we’re called out for in Bishop's Quay
Rust usually starts where water sits, by the plughole, beneath dripping taps or in an unrepaired chip. Water on bare metal causes rust that creeps under the surrounding enamel.
Look out for these signs:
- A chip where the taps sit
- Chips caused by builders
- Deep scratches in acrylic
- Rust spots around the plughole
What your quote should include
- A fixed quote, and whether VAT is included
- Whether they match the colour on site
- Who turns up on the day
- What prep work is covered
Landlord and trade work in Bishop's Quay
Hospitality businesses need rooms back in use quickly, so we keep visits short and tidy. We can work around your bookings.
Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs in Cornwall and across the UK. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which matters when someone is living in the home.
Materials and what they mean for the repair
Cast iron
Cast iron is heavy and rigid, with a fused enamel surface. Chips can rust if left, but the body of the bath lasts a very long time, so it’s always worth repairing.
Pressed steel
Steel baths are lighter than cast iron, but have a similar enamel surface. Exposed steel rusts fast, particularly by the plughole, so early repairs matter.
What bath repair costs
Prices start from £95. There’s no area surcharge for Bishop's Quay. What changes the price is:
- Whether we combine several jobs
- The colour and finish to match
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- What kind of damage it is
Compared with replacing, repairing usually costs far less, because there is no removal, plumbing or making good. The quote lists exactly what you are paying for.
Getting a price from photos
Phone pictures are fine. Just make sure we can see:
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- One picture of the whole bath
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
Email us photos of the damage and one of the whole item, and tell us you’re in Bishop's Quay, and we will come back with a fixed quote.
What happens on the day
The work is clean and fairly quiet. Protection goes down first, then the work takes a few hours. Before we leave, we explain how soon it can be used and how to care for it.
- We start by cleaning the damage and taking out loose enamel and rust.
- The chip or crack is filled, then sanded level with the bath.
- We mix the colour on the day to match your bath’s exact shade.
- We build up the finish and polish it into the surrounding enamel.
- Once it has cured, generally by the day after, the bath is ready to use.
Getting ready for the visit
- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
- Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
- Tell us about parking, stairs or access
How to get a price

When a repair is not the answer
Before you book, it’s worth knowing the limits:
- Leaks from the waste or overflow fittings (a plumber’s job)
- Acrylic cracks with no access behind them
- Wear across the entire surface, which needs re-enamelling
Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly before you book.

Aftercare tips
Much of the damage we repair could have been avoided. A few tips:
- Rinse the bath after use, especially in hard water areas
- Get any new chip repaired before it rusts
- Stick to mild cleaners and a soft cloth
- Do not scrub with anything abrasive
Treat the repaired area like the rest of the bath: a soft cloth and washing-up liquid is all it needs. Keep scouring pads and gritty cleaners away from it.
Don’t leave a chip on a steel or cast iron bath. Once water reaches the metal, rust begins, turning a quick repair into a bigger one.
