Bath repair at your home in Heamoor

Whether your bath is steel, cast iron or acrylic, we can repair it. Each material is repaired a little differently: rust is treated on metal baths, while cracks in acrylic are reinforced from underneath. Typical jobs include scratches you can feel with a fingernail and cracks in an acrylic bath, in cast iron enamel, acrylic and whirlpool & spa baths.

You’re covered for a year from the day of the repair. Just call us if there’s a problem and we’ll come back.

Landlord and trade work in Heamoor

We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Send the address, pictures and access details.

Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs in Cornwall and across the UK. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which is easier on the people living there.

What a repair can’t fix

To be straight with you, there are a few things a repair will not fix:

  • Leaking fittings, which need a plumber
  • Flexing caused by a failed cradle or loose feet
  • Acrylic cracks with no access behind them

If in doubt, send pictures and we will say what we think before booking.

What we work on

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

What we do, step by step

Arrival times are agreed in advance, so you’re not left guessing. Once we are there, the work takes a morning or an afternoon. We leave the room clean.

  1. First, the area is cleaned and any loose enamel or rust is removed.
  2. Next we fill the damage and sand it smooth and level.
  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. Once it has cured, usually by the day after, the bath is ready to use.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
  • Make sure the room can be ventilated
  • Let the surface dry out before the visit

What affects the price in Heamoor

Prices start from £95. There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price is based on:

  • The colour and finish to match
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off

A repair is priced on what needs doing, not where you live. The full price is agreed before booking, with nothing added on the day.

If you’re in Heamoor and want a price, the easiest route is photos: one close up, one from further back, plus your postcode. You’ll get a fixed quote with dates to choose from.

How to look after the repair

Much of the damage we repair could have been avoided. A few tips:

  • Use a soft cloth and washing-up liquid for everyday cleaning
  • Put a towel in the bath if you’re working above it
  • Make sure an acrylic bath is firm underfoot
  • Have new chips seen to early

Give the repair the full curing time we recommend before using the bath. From then on, mild cleaning is all it needs.

If water is getting through a crack, stop using the bath. Leaks under a bath can damage floors and ceilings.

Common questions in Heamoor

Do you cover the whole of Cornwall?

Everywhere in the UK, Heamoor included. There’s no extra charge for travel.

Will it make a mess?

We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and we clean up when we’ve finished.

Will the repair show?

The goal is a repair that blends in. The rest of the bath’s condition makes a difference.

What happens after I send pictures?

You get a fixed price and available dates. If anything’s unclear, we’ll ask for another photo.

What happens if you find more damage?

Your quote covers the damage in the photos. If there is more, we’ll tell you before starting.

Can pets and children be at home?

Keep pets and children away from the work area on the day, so the repair is not disturbed while it cures.

It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?

In most cases. We remove the old repair before doing a new one.

Do you do work for letting agents?

Yes. We carry out repairs for homeowners, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses.

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Pressed steel

Steel baths and trays have a thin metal body under the enamel. Once a chip exposes it, rust follows quickly, so the metal is treated and sealed before the repair.

Cast iron

Cast iron baths are thick and very strong, finished with fired enamel. A chip down to the iron can rust, but the body of the bath lasts a very long time, which makes it well worth repairing.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it won’t stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.

It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
