Bath repair in Mullion Cove, done in place
We see every kind of bath damage: dropped-bottle chips, plughole rust, acrylic cracks and impact holes. All of it is repaired where the bath stands. Our repair technicians work on acrylic, roll-top & freestanding and pressed steel enamel, and the jobs we see most are snagging damage from a refit and a chip where the taps sit.

Do you need bath repair in Mullion Cove?
The usual cause is something heavy dropped into the bath, and building work is a common culprit. Cracks in acrylic have a different cause: poor support underneath, so the bath flexes when it’s full.
You may need us if you’ve spotted any of these:
- A kit repair that didn’t last
- Rusty patches near the plughole
- Scuffs and scratches in the surface
- Chips along the edge of the bath
What your quote should include
- Whether a trained technician does the job
- Aftercare advice
- When it can be used again
- How the colour is matched
Work for landlords and builders
Letting agents often send us photos straight from the inventory. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.
We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams in Cornwall and across the UK. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which matters when someone is living in the home.
What bath repair costs
Prices start from £95. You will not pay by the hour. The price depends on:
- How hard the colour is to match
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- How many items we do on one visit
- How easy the damage is to reach
We charge the same wherever you are, so there is no premium for Mullion Cove. The job itself decides the price: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.
Getting a price from photos
You can take the pictures on your phone, there is no need for anything special. Just ensure we can see:
- Any details about the material
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- Where you are, by postcode
To get a price, send a couple of pictures through our quote form or call us. We will tell you honestly whether it can be repaired.
Keeping it looking good
Simple care helps the repair last. Our advice:
- If an acrylic bath flexes, have its feet adjusted
- Rinse the bath after use, especially in hard water areas
- Stick to mild cleaners and a soft cloth
- Have new chips seen to early
Use gentle, non-abrasive cleaners and avoid dropping heavy items on the repaired area. Deal with new chips early, before rust can start.
If an acrylic bath has a crack, stop showering in it until it’s repaired. Every use opens the crack a little more, and water can get through to the floor below.

Related advice
Mullion Cove: your questions answered
Can you repair a failed DIY repair?
Regularly. The old material comes out, any rust is treated, then we repair it properly.
Is it safe with children and pets around?
We ask you to keep children and pets out of the room while we work and until it has cured. Everywhere else in the home is fine.
Will the repair show?
We aim for a repair you cannot easily find. The rest of the bath’s condition makes a difference.
How soon can you come?
We will give you dates with your quote. If it’s urgent, say so and we will do what we can.
Can you repair a hole in a bath?
Normally. Photos of the hole and the underside help us check.
Can you repair several things at once?
Yes. Doing several items on one visit normally costs less than separate visits. Send pictures of everything you’d like done.
What areas do you cover?
Everywhere in the UK, Mullion Cove included. Travel is included in the price.
Can rust on a bath be repaired?
Yes, it’s one of the most common repairs we do. The rust is cut back to clean metal and sealed before we fill and finish it.
Different materials, different repairs
Acrylic
An acrylic bath is a moulded sheet strengthened from below. There is no rust, but cracks, holes and scratches happen, and cracks need support from behind to stay fixed.
Pressed steel
Steel baths and trays have a thin metal body under the enamel. Exposed steel rusts quickly, so we treat and seal the metal before filling.
Should I try a DIY kit first?
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
For a hairline mark somewhere you will never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.

What else we do in Mullion Cove
What we can’t put right
A repair isn’t always the answer, and we would rather say so up front. Repairs won’t solve:
- A whole bath that’s dull or worn, where a full re-enamel is the better fix
- Leaks from the waste or overflow fittings (a plumber’s job)
- Flexing caused by a failed cradle or loose feet
If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think before booking.
What we work on
- Cast iron enamel
