How the visit works

A typical visit goes like this: we arrive at the agreed slot, protect everything around the work area, carry out the work and clear up. Plan for a few hours. Before we go, we will explain when it can be used and what to avoid for the first few days.

  1. We protect the bath and the floor around it.
  2. The damaged area is cleaned, keyed and degreased, and any rust is treated.
  3. Filler goes in and is sanded flush once it has set.
  4. Colour and gloss are matched to the surrounding surface.
  5. We tidy up and tell you when the bath can be used, usually the day after.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Let us know which floor the room is on
  • Open a window if you can
  • Make sure the area is dry

Questions from Liskeard

Will I be able to see the repair?

We aim for a repair you can’t easily find. The rest of the bath’s condition makes a difference, and we’ll tell you what to expect.

How long before I can use the bath?

Most baths can be used the following day. We will tell you the exact curing time when we finish.

Is the work guaranteed?

All our work carries our one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.

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

Generally, yes. Tell us what was done before.

Can you price it without visiting?

Yes, almost always. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed price.

Are there extra charges for Liskeard?

Travel is included in the price, and we charge the same wherever you are.

When can you do it?

We will give you dates with your quote. Tell us if you need it done quickly.

What if the damage is worse than the photos show?

The price is fixed for what the pictures show. If there’s more, we’ll tell you before starting.

What we cannot put right

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

  • A bath that moves underfoot, until its support is fixed
  • Wear across the whole surface, which needs re-enamelling
  • Leaks from the waste or overflow fittings (a plumber’s job)

Not sure? Send pictures and we will give you a straight answer.

What we work on

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

How we price bath repair

Repairs from £95. Each job gets its own fixed price. These are the things that affect it:

  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • How many areas need work

Instead of hourly rates, we price the entire job up front. Damage, material and access decide it, and combining items on one visit brings it down.

Quotes from your pictures

Before you send photos, a few simple things make all the difference:

  • Where you are, by postcode
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • Any details about the material
  • One picture of the whole bath

There’s no need for us to visit first. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we will come back to you with a fixed figure.

Can I fix it myself?

If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely and work on a clean, dry surface, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.

A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Composite and resin

Composite baths are dense and solid. Chips and scratches are filled and matched, in much the same way.

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’s what we repair.

Looking after it afterwards

After the repair has cured, a few habits help it last:

  • Store metal items away from the bath
  • Rinse it down after each bath
  • Protect the bath with a towel when doing jobs nearby
  • A dripping tap stains enamel, so fix it early

For the first few days, keep heavy bottles off the repaired spot. After that, clean it as you would the rest of the bath.

Tape over a fresh chip or crack until it’s repaired, so water can’t get in. Take it off before we arrive.

When to call us in Liskeard

Rust normally starts where water sits, by the plughole, beneath dripping taps or in an unrepaired chip. Water on bare metal causes rust that creeps under the surrounding enamel.

Clients normally contact us about:

  • Rust by the waste and overflow
  • Cracks in an acrylic bath
  • An old repair that has yellowed or come loose
  • Scuffs and scratches in the surface

What your quote should include

  • What happens if the damage is worse than the photos show
  • What preparation is included
  • Whether a trained technician does the job
  • How the room is protected while they work
