About our bath repair in Mawgan Porth
A typical bath repair is a few hours’ work, and you can generally bathe again the day after. There is no need to book a plumber or tiler, because nothing is disconnected. We work on roll-top & freestanding, whirlpool & spa baths and cast iron enamel, and people most frequently call us about a cracked acrylic bath and damage beneath the taps.
You are covered for a year from the day of the repair. If anything is not right, ring us and we will come back.

Common questions in Mawgan Porth
What information do you need?
Some photos, your postcode and how to reach you. On the day, access to the room.
Will the price change on the day?
Your quote covers the damage in the pictures. Anything extra is discussed before we begin.
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
Yes, as long as they stay out of the room we’re working in. We will tell you when the room can be used again.
Do you work in Mawgan Porth?
Yes, we do. We send a technician to Mawgan Porth for every job, and the price is the same as everywhere else.
Is the work guaranteed?
Yes, for a year. If there’s a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.
Do you cover the whole of Cornwall?
All of Cornwall, and the rest of the UK. Travel is included in the price.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
Generally, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. We’ll be honest if it’s not worth it.
Do I need to be at home?
Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time we agree with you.
Do you need bath repair in Mawgan Porth?
Heavy toiletries are the biggest single cause of chips, closely followed by shower heads. Fittings cause damage too: water sits around them, and any chip there soon rusts.
Typical reasons for a call-out include:
- Chips caused by builders
- Rusty patches near the plughole
- An old repair that has yellowed or come loose
- Hairline or through cracks in acrylic
What to look for in a quote
- Whether the price covers travel
- Aftercare advice
- Who turns up on the day

How we price bath repair
Prices start from £95. We do not charge extra for travel to Mawgan Porth. The price comes down to:
- Doing more than one item at once
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- What the surface is made of
- The size and number of damaged areas
The price depends on the type and amount of damage, what it’s made of and how many jobs we combine into one visit. You get a fixed quote from your photos, so there are no surprises on the day.
Send photos for a quote
Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what to send:
- Natural light rather than flash
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- Any details about the material
We price from pictures so you do not have to wait in for a survey. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through, and we’ll come back with a fixed figure.
How the visit works
Once we’re through the door, we keep the work contained to the one room. We mask off everything nearby, 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.
- We protect the bath and the floor around it.
- We clean, key and degrease the damage.
- We fill it, let it set, then sand it flush.
- Colour and gloss are matched to the surrounding surface.
- We clear up and give you the curing time, normally until the next day.
How to prepare
- Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access

The quickest way to a price is to send two or three photos through our quote form or call us. We will tell you honestly whether it can be repaired.
Related advice
Should I try a DIY kit first?
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair won’t last.
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it will not stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.

Keeping it looking good
Once the work has cured, treat it gently:
- Use a soft cloth and washing-up liquid for everyday cleaning
- Keep metal cans and razors off the surface
- Get a dripping tap fixed promptly
- Get any new chip repaired before it rusts
Keep metal objects like razors and cans off the surface, because they can mark the enamel. A dripping tap should be fixed early, too.
Avoid standing in a cracked acrylic bath until it’s fixed. Each time it flexes, the crack grows, and water can get through to the floor below.
When we would advise against a repair
Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:
- Water coming from the waste or taps rather than the bath
- Cracks in acrylic we cannot reach from underneath
- A steel bath rusted through

What your bath is made of matters
Pressed steel
Steel baths and trays have a thin metal body under the enamel. Once a chip exposes it, rust follows quickly, so we treat and seal the metal before filling.
Composite and resin
Composite baths are dense and solid, and often freestanding. Chips and scratches are filled and matched, just like other baths.
