How the visit works

There’s not much you need to do on the day. Let us in and show us the room, and we will get on with it. Most visits take two to three hours for most chips, tidy-up included.

  1. We clean the area and remove any loose enamel or rust.
  2. We fill the damage and sand it flush with the surrounding surface.
  3. The colour is mixed on the spot to match your bath.
  4. We build up the finish and polish it into the surrounding enamel.
  5. The repair is left to cure, and most baths can be used the day after.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Let the surface dry out before the visit
  • Let us know which floor the room is on
  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work

Ask for a price

Most clients in Boscoppa get their price from pictures. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we will reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.

Prices and what affects them

Repairs from £95. A fixed quote means you know the cost before you book. We look at:

  • The material
  • Doing more than one item at once
  • How much damage there is
  • The type of damage

Instead of hourly rates, we price the entire job up front. Damage, material and access decide it, and combining items on one visit brings it down.

How to get a fixed price

The better the pictures, the more accurate the price. Here’s what helps:

  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • Where you are, by postcode
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size

Email us photos of the damage and a wider shot of the entire item, with your PL25 postcode, and we’ll come back with a fixed quote.

Why repair rather than replace?

Swapping a damaged bath for a new one normally involves a plumber, removing the old bath, making good the tiles and panel and disposing of the old one. Repairing it deals only with the damage in a single visit. Prices start from £95. We charge the same wherever you are, so there’s no premium for Boscoppa. The job itself decides the price: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

What you get with us

  • Work done at your home or business
  • No extra charge for your area
  • Most jobs done in one visit
  • Colour-matched on site

Different materials, different repairs

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 baths are so heavy that repairing in place makes obvious sense. The enamel is the part that wears or chips, and that is what we repair.

Work for landlords and builders

For anyone letting property in or around Boscoppa, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Send pictures for each one and we’ll come back with a combined price.

Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs in Cornwall and across the UK. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which matters when someone is living in the home.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it will not stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.

For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll 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, a professional repair is worth it.

Signs you need bath repair in Boscoppa

Most bath damage comes from something dropped: a shampoo bottle, a shower head, a tile or a tool during a refit. On enamelled baths, any chip down to the metal will start to rust.

Signs it’s time to call us include:

  • Impact holes in acrylic
  • Damage done while the bathroom was being fitted
  • Deep scratches in acrylic
  • A chipped rim or side

What your quote should include

  • What prep work is covered
  • What happens if they find more damage
  • Who turns up on the day
  • How soon you can use it again

Choosing a repair company

Looking after it afterwards

Once the work has cured, treat it gently:

  • Don’t leave a fresh chip for long
  • Do not leave razors or cans standing in the bath
  • Ensure an acrylic bath is firm underfoot
  • Use a soft cloth and washing-up liquid for everyday cleaning

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.

Rust under enamel spreads surprisingly quickly. Left for months, a small chip can grow into a large rust patch, so it pays to deal with it early.
