Bath Repair for Camelford homes
Chip and crack repairs to enamel, acrylic and cast iron baths at your home in Camelford, with a one-year guarantee on every repair.
- Repairs from £95
- Rusty patches near the plughole
- A chipped rim or side
Work for landlords and builders
We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which matters when someone is living in the home.
Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.
About our bath repair in Camelford
Whether your bath is steel, cast iron or acrylic, we can repair it. Each material is repaired a little differently: metal baths need any rust dealt with first, and acrylic cracks need support from behind. We regularly repair whirlpool & spa baths, pressed steel enamel and roll-top & freestanding, and the jobs we see most are chips on the rim or sides and a chip where the taps sit.
Every repair is covered by our one-year guarantee.

Aftercare tips
Most damage we see is avoidable. A few tips:
- Keep metal cans and razors off the surface
- Cover the bath during DIY or decorating
- Fix dripping taps early to stop staining and limescale
- Check that an acrylic bath does not move when you stand in it
Treat the repaired area like the rest of the bath: warm water, washing-up liquid and a soft cloth. Keep scouring pads and gritty cleaners away from it.
Do not 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.
DIY repairs versus a professional job
If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, ensure the area is clean and completely dry, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is usually the cheaper route.
Camelford: your questions answered
Will you leave a mess?
Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we leave the room clean.
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
Yes, but check with your landlord or agent first. Landlords are frequently glad to have it sorted before the end of a tenancy.
Can you repair a hole in a bath?
Usually, yes, if we can reach behind it. We back the hole, fill it and refinish the surface.
Do you do work for letting agents?
Yes, often. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
Normally, yes. We remove the old repair before doing a new one, so let us know about it.
How invisible is a bath repair?
On a glossy bath, you’ll struggle to find it. On older, dull enamel the repair can look glossier than the area around it.
Do you hold any accreditations?
Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.
Can you repair several things at once?
Yes. Doing several items on one visit typically costs less than separate visits. Include pictures of each item.
Different materials, different repairs
Pressed steel
Steel baths are lighter than cast iron, but have a similar enamel surface. Exposed steel rusts fast, especially around the waste, so early repairs matter.
Composite and resin
Composite baths are dense and solid. Chips and scratches are filled and matched, just like other baths.
Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £95. There’s no area surcharge for Camelford. The price reflects:
- The size and number of damaged areas
- The type of damage
- Doing more than one item at once
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
The price reflects the work involved, not where you live. The full price is agreed before you book, with no extras added later.
Getting a price from photos
Most quotes are done from pictures alone. To make it quick:
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- Any details about the material
- Where you are, by postcode
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
To get a price, send two or three pictures using our quote form or ring us. We will tell you honestly if a repair is the right fix.
Do you need bath repair in Camelford?
Many chips happen while the bathroom is being fitted. Tradespeople drop tools and tiles into the bath, frequently before anyone notices. We repair snagging damage like this regularly.
Signs it’s time to call us include:
- Hairline or through cracks in acrylic
- Scuffs and scratches in the surface
- Damage done while the bathroom was being fitted
- A hole punched through by something heavy
What your quote should include
- The length of the guarantee and what it covers
- Aftercare advice
- What happens if they find more damage
- How soon you can use it again

All of PL32 is covered. Local streets include Market Place, High Street and Mount Camel, and we cover them all. You’ll find Camelford on the A39 and B3266, so it’s easy for us to reach.

Honest limits
In fairness, there are a few things a repair will not fix:
- Wear across the entire surface, which needs re-enamelling
- A bath that flexes because its feet or cradle have failed (that needs fixing first)
- Leaking fittings, which need a plumber
If in doubt, send photos and we will say what we think before booking.
