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, then guarantee it for a year.
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is usually the cheaper route.

Honest limits
We’ll always be straight with you, so here’s what a repair can’t fix:
- A steel bath rusted through
- A bath that flexes because its feet or cradle have failed (that needs fixing first)
- A whole bath that’s dull or worn, where a full re-enamel is the better fix
If in doubt, send photos and we will say what we think before you book.
Surfaces we repair
- Pressed steel enamel
- Cast iron enamel
- Whirlpool & spa baths
- Roll-top & freestanding
- Acrylic
What your bath is made of matters
Composite and resin
Stone resin and composite baths are heavy and solid. Chips and scratches can be filled and colour-matched, just like other baths.
Acrylic
Acrylic baths are moulded sheet reinforced underneath. There is no rust, but cracks, holes and scratches happen, and a crack only stays repaired if it’s supported underneath.
What bath repair costs
Prices start from £95. Every quote is fixed and free. What we look at:
- The material and finish
- How many items we do on one visit
- The colour and finish to match
- The type of damage
What it costs depends on the type and amount of damage, what it’s made of and how many items we do on one visit. We give a fixed price from your pictures, so you know the cost before booking.

How the visit works
From the moment we arrive, we keep the work contained to the one room. Surfaces nearby are masked off, the job takes a morning or an afternoon, depending on what we find, and we finish by cleaning up and talking you through the result.
- First, we check the damage against your photos and agree the plan.
- Loose enamel, rust and dirt are removed so the repair can bond.
- The damage is filled in layers and shaped to the curve of the bath.
- We tint the finish by hand to match the bath.
- Finally, it’s polished to match the shine and left to cure.
Preparing for the visit
- Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
- Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
- Let us know about parking or access
Ask for a price

Common questions in Greenwith Common
What information do you need?
A close-up, a wider photo and your postcode. Then we’ll agree a date.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Send photos of everything you’d like done.
Something went through my bath. Can it be fixed?
In most cases. Send us a photo of the hole and one from under the bath if you can.
Do you hold any accreditations?
We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.
What about rust by the waste?
Yes, very frequently. We take it back to sound metal, seal it, fill it and match the colour.

We cover the whole UK, including Greenwith Common and the rest of Cornwall. Send your postcode with your pictures and we’ll confirm dates.
Is the work guaranteed?
Yes, for a year. If there is a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.
Can pets and children be at home?
We ask you to keep children and pets out of the room while we work and until it has cured. Everywhere else in the home is fine.
What we are called out for in Greenwith Common
Damage during fitting is very common. Tradespeople drop tools and tiles into the bath, and the damage isn’t always spotted until later. Snagging repairs like these are a regular job for us.
Send us a photo if you notice any of these:
- A chipped rim or side
- Chips under the taps
- Impact holes in acrylic
- A failed DIY repair that is discoloured or lifting

Aftercare tips
How the surface is treated afterwards matters:
- Protect the bath with a towel when doing jobs nearby
- Give the bath a quick rinse after use
- Use a soft cloth and washing-up liquid for everyday cleaning
- Keep abrasive pads and gritty cleaners away from the bath
Keep metal objects like razors and cans off the surface, as they can leave rust marks. And fix dripping taps promptly.
Stop using the bath if a crack lets water through until it’s repaired. Leaks under a bath can damage floors and ceilings.
