Bath repair in Penelewey, done in place
A typical bath repair is a few hours’ work, and the bath is back in use the following day. You will not need a plumber or tiler, because nothing is disconnected. Our technicians work on roll-top & freestanding, whirlpool & spa baths and cast iron enamel, and the jobs we see most are damage beneath the taps and chips caused by builders.
Big or small, you get the same one-year guarantee in Penelewey and across Cornwall.

Your questions about bath repair in Penelewey
Can you match an avocado or pink bath?
Yes, we match coloured baths too. The colour is tinted by hand on the day.
How soon can you come?
It depends on the time of year and where you are. Send pictures with your postcode and we’ll reply with the earliest dates.
Can pets and children be at home?
We ask you to keep children and pets out of the room while we work. The rest of the house is unaffected.
Can you repair several things at once?
Of course, and it normally saves money. Just add the extra items to your pictures and you’ll get one combined price.
Can you price it without visiting?
Nearly always. If pictures do not show enough, we’ll ask for another angle.
What areas do you cover?
We work UK-wide, so Penelewey is covered. Our prices are the same everywhere.
Is a cracked acrylic bath repairable?
In most cases. The back of the crack is strengthened before the front is filled and refinished, so access behind the panel is important.
How long does the repair take to cure?
Normally by the following day, though it depends on what we’ve done.
DIY repairs versus a professional job
For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll 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.
A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.
The process
Your technician turns up when we said we would, introduces themselves and looks over the damage before anything else. Dust sheets and masking tape go down before we open a single tin. The work itself takes two to three hours for most chips, and the room is left clean and tidy.
- 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.
- We match both the colour and the shine.
- We clear up and give you the curing time, normally until the following day.
Before we arrive
- Let us know about parking or access
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive

Work for landlords and builders
Hospitality businesses cannot afford rooms out of action for long, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We can work around your bookings.

What bath repair costs
Repairs from £95. There is no area surcharge for Penelewey. The price reflects:
- What the surface is made of
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- How many items we do on one visit
- The size and number of damaged areas
Rather than charging by the hour, we price the entire job up front. Damage, material and access decide it.
Getting a price from photos
Before you send photos, a few simple things make all the difference:
- Details of any past repairs
- Any details about the material
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: take one close-up and one wider shot of the bath, add your postcode and send them over. What comes back is a fixed quote, not a guess.

Repairs by material
Composite and resin
Composite baths are dense and solid. Chips and scratches can be filled and colour matched, in much the same way.
Pressed steel
Pressed steel is thinner and lighter, with an enamel finish like cast iron. Exposed steel rusts fast, especially around the waste, so early repairs matter.
Common problems we fix in Penelewey
A bath gets knocked about more than you’d think: everyday items get dropped into it all the time, and taps and wastes are tightened against the surface. Over time, chips and rust spots are almost inevitable.
Typical reasons for a call-out include:
- Cracks in an acrylic bath
- Chips on the rim or sides
- A hole punched through by something heavy
- Scratches you can feel with a fingernail
Before booking anyone
- Whether they match the colour on site
- Who will actually do the work
- Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price
- How the room is protected while they work
Repairing versus replacing in Penelewey
A new bath brings a chain of other jobs: the tiles sitting on the rim tend to break, a new panel is often needed, and a plumber has to disconnect and reconnect everything. Repairing the damage avoids all of that. Our bath repair starts from £95. We charge the same wherever you are, so there is no premium for Penelewey. What changes the price is the job itself: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

What a repair can’t fix
A repair is not right for every job, for example:
- A whole bath that’s dull or worn, where a full re-enamel is the better fix
- Leaking fittings, which need a plumber
- Cracks in acrylic we cannot reach from underneath
