What affects the price in Breage
Prices start from £95. There is no charge for travel to Breage. The price comes down to:
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- The material
- How easy the damage is to reach
- Doing more than one item at once
Every job is a little different, so we price each one individually. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all make a difference, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.
Quotes from your photos
Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what we need:
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- Where you are, by postcode
- A picture taken from further back
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
Email us a picture of the damage and a wider shot of the entire item, with your TR13 postcode, and we’ll come back with a fixed quote.
How we handle bath repair in Breage
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 and the tiles around it. Most baths can be used again the next day. We work on pressed steel enamel, acrylic and cast iron enamel, and the jobs we see most are chips caused by builders and a cracked acrylic bath.
The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If there’s a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it.

Aftercare tips
Nothing complicated is needed:
- Get a dripping tap fixed promptly
- Rinse the bath after use, especially in hard water areas
- Stick to mild cleaners and a soft cloth
- If an acrylic bath flexes, have its feet adjusted
Leave the repair to cure for as long as we say before running a bath. From then on, mild cleaning is all it needs.
A chip on a metal bath shouldn’t be left. Water gets to the metal and rust starts, and a rust spot is a bigger repair than a clean chip.
DIY repairs versus a professional job
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.
If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, ensure the area is clean and completely dry, and give it the full curing time. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.
What we can’t put right
Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair can’t fix:
- Leaking fittings, which need a plumber
- Wear across the entire surface, which needs re-enamelling
- A bath that moves underfoot, until its support is fixed
Not sure? Send pictures and we will give you a straight answer.
Materials we repair
- Cast iron enamel
- Pressed steel enamel
- Acrylic
- Roll-top & freestanding
- Whirlpool & spa baths
Common problems we fix in Breage
Dropped items cause the majority of chips, and building work is a common culprit. Acrylic baths crack for a different reason: the bath is not properly supported, so it flexes under weight.
Send us a picture if you notice any of these:
- Scratches you can feel with a fingernail
- Damage beneath the taps
- Cracks in an acrylic bath
- Snagging damage from a refit
What your quote should include
- How soon you can use it again
- What happens if they find more damage
- What protection goes down before work starts
- How long the guarantee is and what it covers

Repairs by material
Composite and resin
Composite baths are dense and solid, and often freestanding. Chips and scratches can be filled and colour matched, just like other baths.
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.
Questions from Breage
Is a repair better than a new one?
Generally, if the item is otherwise sound. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. If replacing would be better, we will say so.
Do I have to be there?
Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. You do not need to watch us work.
What about rust by the waste?
Yes. We remove the rust and loose enamel, fill the area, then colour-match the finish.
How do I get a price for bath repair in Breage?
Repairs from £95. We give a fixed price from your photos. Send a close-up and a picture of the entire item and your postcode.
Can you redo an old repair?
Yes. We take out the old repair and do it properly. Mention it when you send photos.
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
Yes, but check with your landlord or agent first. Landlords are frequently glad to have it sorted.
Do you hold any accreditations?
We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.
Is there a call-out fee?
No. Our quotes include travel, and we charge the same wherever you are.
The process
It’s a tidy, low-fuss visit. We agree the arrival time in advance, protect the area, then carry out the work, which usually takes a morning or an afternoon. If anything looks different from your photos, we will talk to you before going ahead.
- 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.
- The repair is polished to the same gloss as the bath and left to cure.
How to prepare
- Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
- Let the surface dry out before the visit
- Clear the area around the damage
