Bath repair at your home in Meavy
A damaged bath does not have to mean a new bathroom. Our repair technicians fill, shape and refinish the damage, with the colour mixed on site. Our repair technicians work on cast iron enamel, acrylic and pressed steel enamel, and common reasons people get in touch are a failed DIY repair that’s discoloured or lifting and a chipped rim or side.
You are covered for a year from the day of the repair. Just call us if there is a problem and we will come back.

Can I fix it myself?
We understand the appeal of fixing it 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.
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.
Do you need bath repair in Meavy?
Many chips happen while the bathroom is being fitted. Tools, tiles and fittings get dropped into the bath, often before anyone notices. Snagging repairs like these are a regular job for us.
Keep an eye out for these signs:
- A cracked acrylic bath
- Impact holes in acrylic
- An old repair that has yellowed or come loose
- Chips under the taps
What your quote should include
- Whether they match the colour on site
- Whether a trained technician does the job
- What the guarantee covers, and for how long
- Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price
Honest limits
Before you book, it’s worth knowing the limits too:
- A bath that flexes because its feet or cradle have failed (that needs fixing first)
- Leaks from the waste or overflow fittings (a plumber’s job)
- Acrylic cracks with no access behind them
If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think.

Aftercare tips
So the finish stays in good condition:
- Use a soft cloth and washing-up liquid for everyday cleaning
- Get any new chip repaired before it rusts
- A dripping tap stains enamel, so fix it early
- Don’t scrub with anything abrasive
There is nothing special to do after a repair, beyond gentle cleaning. Skip bleach and gritty creams and give it a rinse after each bath.
A small chip is a quick job. Leave them and they collect dirt, stain and, on metal baths, rust, so it’s worth getting them done early.
Meavy questions
What information do you need?
Just photos, your postcode and a contact number. On the day, we only need access to the room.
Can you repair a failed DIY repair?
Yes. We take out the old repair and do it properly. Mention it when you send photos.
How much does bath repair cost in Meavy?
Repairs from £95. Every job gets a fixed price based on photos of the damage. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo and your postcode.
Do you repair coloured baths?
Yes. We mix the colour on the day to match, including pastel and older colours.
Can you repair several things at once?
Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Include photos of each item.
Is a cracked acrylic bath repairable?
Most of the time. We reinforce the crack from behind, then fill and refinish the front, so access behind the panel is important.
Can you price it without visiting?
Generally, yes. Clear pictures let us give you a fixed price without visiting.
Can tenants book a repair?
We can work for tenants, landlords or agents. Get your landlord’s agreement first.
Different materials, different repairs
Cast iron
A cast iron bath is heavy enough that most people never want to move it. The enamel is the part that wears or chips, and that is the part we put right.
Composite and resin
Stone resin and composite baths are heavy and solid, and often freestanding. Chips and scratches can be filled and colour matched, just like other baths.
Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £95. Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we look at:
- What the surface is made of
- How many items we do on one visit
- What kind of damage it is
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
A repair usually costs much less than people expect, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Photos let us give you the exact figure.
Getting a price from pictures
You can normally get a fixed price without us visiting. To make it quick:
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- What it’s made of, if you know
Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us pictures through the quote form. With one close-up and one wider picture, we can price the job.
What happens on the day
You don’t need to empty the room beforehand. Everything we use comes in the van with us, put protection down and start once you’re happy with the plan. Most jobs take a few hours, and you can get on with other things while we are there.
- 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 tidy up and tell you when the bath can be used, usually the next day.
Before we arrive
- Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
- Let the surface dry out before the visit
- Open a window if you can
Getting a price
You don’t need a survey visit. 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.
