Bath repair in Meaver, done in place
A damaged bath doesn’t have to mean a new bathroom. We fill the damage, shape it to the curve of the bath and refinish it, with the colour mixed on site so the repair is hard to spot. Common call-outs are for chips caused by builders and chips along the edge of the bath, across whirlpool & spa baths, pressed steel enamel and roll-top & freestanding.
Every repair is covered by a one-year guarantee, wherever you are in Cornwall.

Common questions in Meaver
Is the work guaranteed?
Every repair comes with our one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.
Can you match an avocado or pink bath?
Yes, we match coloured baths too. The colour is tinted by hand on the day.
What happens if you find more damage?
Your quote covers the damage in the pictures. If there is more, we will tell you before starting.
Will it make a mess?
Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we take our waste away with us.
Can you quote from photos?
Nearly always. If pictures do not show enough, we will ask for another angle.
Can you repair a crack in an acrylic bath?
In most cases. The back of the crack is strengthened before the front is filled and refinished, so we need access under the bath.
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.
Is a bath repair permanent?
Done properly, a repair lasts for years, and ours come with a one-year guarantee. Gentle cleaning helps.
What we’re called out for in Meaver
Baths take more knocks than people expect: bottles, shower heads and razors are dropped every day, and taps and wastes are tightened against the surface. Over time, chips and rust spots are almost inevitable.
You may need us if you’ve spotted any of these:
- Deep scratches in acrylic
- A kit repair that didn’t last
- Hairline or through cracks in acrylic
- Chips under the taps
What your quote should include
- Whether a trained technician does the job
- Whether the colour is mixed to match
- How changes to the job are handled
- Whether there are any call-out or travel charges
The process
Expect a friendly, tidy visit. We confirm the time with you beforehand, protect the area, and get on with the job, which normally takes a few hours. If we find something your photos didn’t show, we will explain it before carrying on.
- First, we check the damage against your photos and agree the plan.
- Any rust and loose material comes out, and the area is degreased.
- The damage is filled in layers and shaped to the curve of the bath.
- We tint the finish by hand to match the bath.
- The repair is polished to the same gloss as the bath and left to cure.
Preparing for the visit
- Make sure the room can be ventilated
- Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
- Tell us about parking, stairs or access
Ask for a price
No survey visit is needed: we price from photos. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through, and you will get a fixed figure back.
Advice
Aftercare tips
So the finish stays in good condition:
- Don’t scrub with anything abrasive
- Store metal items away from the bath
- Have new chips seen to early
- Rinse it down after each bath
Don’t leave razors, cans or hair grips in the bath, as they can leave rust marks. And fix dripping taps promptly.
Until we visit, a strip of waterproof tape over the damage helps, so water can’t get in. Remove it before the repair.

What else we do in Meaver
Landlords, agents and businesses in Meaver
Rental properties take more wear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.
Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover, so there’s no need to replace a damaged item at the last minute. We can visit several plots in one trip to keep costs down.
What your bath is made of matters
Composite and resin
Stone resin and composite baths are heavy and solid, and frequently freestanding. Chips and scratches can be filled and colour-matched, in much the same way.
Pressed steel
Steel baths are lighter than cast iron, but have a similar enamel surface. Chips rust quickly on steel, especially around the waste, so early repairs matter.
Should I try a DIY kit first?
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
Repair or replace in Meaver?
A new bath costs more than the bath itself: removal and disposal, plumbing, a new panel, tiling and decorating. With a repair, it’s one visit and one price. Our bath repair starts from £95. We charge the same wherever you are, so there’s no premium for Meaver. What changes the price is the job itself: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.
What you get with us
- A year’s guarantee on all work
- Most jobs done in one visit
- CHAS and Constructionline accredited
- Dust sheets down, tidy finish

What affects the price in Meaver
Prices start from £95. Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we look at:
- The material
- Doing more than one item at once
- Unusual colours or finishes
- How many areas need work
Instead of hourly rates, we price the entire job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access.
Quotes from your photos
Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what we need:
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- Details of any past repairs
- The material, if you know it
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
The quickest way to a price is to send a couple of pictures through our quote form or call us. We’ll say right away if a repair is the right fix.
