Most of our bath repairs take a few hours, and you can typically bathe again the next day. You won’t need a plumber or tiler, because the bath does not move. If you are dealing with chips along the edge of the bath and damage beneath the taps, we can help, whatever the material.

When to call us in Cammo

Rust generally starts where water sits, around the waste, under the taps or in an old chip. Once water reaches the steel or iron, rust spreads under the enamel.

You may need us if you’ve spotted:

  • Damage done while the bathroom was being fitted
  • Scuffs and scratches in the surface
  • A failed DIY repair that’s discoloured or lifting
  • Damage beneath the taps

Our hiring checklist

Work for landlords and builders

Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover, saving last-minute replacements. Several plots can be done in one visit to keep costs down.

Letting agents frequently send us pictures straight from the inventory. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.

What we cannot put right

We’d rather lose a job than do one that won’t last, so these are the limits:

  • Rust that has eaten right through a steel bath
  • Cracks in acrylic we can’t reach from underneath
  • Flexing caused by a failed cradle or loose feet

Not sure? Send photos and we’ll give you a straight answer.

What we work on

  • Pressed steel enamel
  • Acrylic
  • Cast iron enamel
  • Roll-top & freestanding
  • Whirlpool & spa baths

Different materials, different repairs

Composite and resin

Stone resin and composite baths are heavy and solid, and frequently freestanding. Chips and scratches can be filled and colour-matched, just like other baths.

Pressed steel

Pressed steel is thinner and lighter, with an enamel finish like cast iron. Chips rust quickly on steel, especially around the waste, so repair chips early.

Common questions in Cammo

Can you price it without visiting?

In nearly every case. If pictures do not show enough, we’ll ask for another angle.

Can tenants book a repair?

We’re happy to deal with the tenant, landlord or agent. Get your landlord’s agreement first.

What areas do you cover?

The entire UK, including all of Edinburgh. Send your postcode with your pictures and we will offer you dates.

What if the damage is worse than the pictures show?

We will show you and explain before doing anything extra. Nothing extra is done without your say-so.

Will you leave a mess?

Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we take our waste away with us.

Can you repair several things at once?

Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Send photos of everything you’d like done.

How do I get a price for bath repair in Cammo?

Prices start from £95. Because every job differs, we price from photos. You know the full cost before anything is booked.

Do you come to Cammo?

Yes, we do. We send a technician to Cammo for every job, with no extra charge for travel.

Repair or replace in Cammo?

A new bath brings a chain of other jobs: tiles along the rim normally crack when it comes out, the panel may not fit the new one, and a plumber has to disconnect and reconnect everything. A repair skips all of it. Prices start from £95. Instead of hourly rates, we price the whole job up front. Damage, material and access decide it.

Why Cammo customers choose us

  • One visit for most repairs
  • One price list for the whole UK
  • One-year guarantee on every repair
  • Dust sheets down, tidy finish

What happens on the day

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 a few hours, depending on the damage, including clearing up.

  1. First, the area is cleaned and any loose enamel or rust is removed.
  2. The chip or crack is filled, then sanded level with the bath.
  3. We mix the colour on the day to match your bath’s exact shade.
  4. We build up the finish and polish it into the surrounding enamel.
  5. We leave it to cure; you can usually use the bath the day after.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Let us know which floor the room is on
  • Let the surface dry out before the visit
  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area

Getting a price

For most jobs, photos are all we need to give you a price. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we will reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.

How we price bath repair

Repairs from £95. Every quote is fixed and free. What we take into account:

  • The material
  • How hard the colour is to match
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • Whether we combine several jobs

We charge the same wherever you are, so there’s no premium for Cammo. What changes the price is the job itself: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

How to get a fixed quote

When you take your photos, these tips help us give you a firm price:

  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • Natural light rather than flash
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates

The quickest way to a price is to send two or three pictures using our quote form or ring us. We’ll tell you honestly if a repair is the right fix.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, and the work is guaranteed.

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.
