About our bath repair in Penhale Jakes
Most bath damage, from chips and cracks to rust spots and holes, is repaired in place. Nothing is unplumbed, the tiles aren’t touched, and the repaired area is colour matched so it blends in. Our technicians work on whirlpool & spa baths, acrylic and roll-top & freestanding, and common reasons people contact us are a kit repair that didn’t last and rust spots around the plughole.
The work is covered for a year after we finish. Just call us if there is a problem and we’ll come back.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Penhale Jakes
We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Penhale Jakes as well as householders. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it costs much less than replacing.
We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out photos. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.
What happens on the day
Arrival times are agreed in advance, so you know when to expect us. On site, it takes a few hours, depending on the damage for most jobs. The room is left tidy and you’ll know when it can be used.
- We protect the bath and the floor around it.
- We clean, key and degrease the damage, and any rust is treated.
- 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 next day.
Before we arrive
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
- Let us know about parking or access
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat

What we can’t put right
We’ll always be straight with you, so here’s what a repair can’t fix:
- Cracks in acrylic we can’t reach from underneath
- Rust that has eaten right through a steel bath
- Water coming from the waste or taps rather than the bath
If in doubt, send photos and we will say what we think.
Materials we work on in Penhale Jakes

Why repair rather than replace?
A new bath costs more than the bath itself: taking out the old one, plumbing, tiling, a panel and redecorating. A repair is one job, done in one visit. Our bath repair starts from £95. The price reflects the work involved, not where you live. You’ll see the full price before you book, with nothing added on the day.
What you get with us
- Same prices wherever you are
- Dust sheets down, tidy finish
- Straight answers about what a repair can do
- No need to remove anything
Read our prices page or resurfacing vs replacement cost guide.
What bath repair costs
Repairs from £95. You will know the full cost before booking. We take into account:
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- What the surface is made of
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
Every job is a little different, so each one is priced on its own. The size and type of damage, the material and access all make a difference, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.
Quotes from your pictures
Most quotes are done from pictures alone. To make it quick:
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- One picture of the whole bath
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
Call 0345 017 0787 or use the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the whole bath, we can price the job without visiting.
What your bath is made of matters
Pressed steel
Under the enamel of a steel bath is thin metal. Once a chip exposes it, rust follows quickly, so we treat and seal the metal before filling.
Composite and resin
Stone resin and composite baths are heavy and solid. Chips and scratches are filled and matched, in much the same way.
Looking after it afterwards
Good habits make a big difference to how long a repair lasts. Here’s what we suggest:
- Fix dripping taps early to stop staining and limescale
- Have new chips seen to early
- Avoid scourers, wire wool and gritty cream cleaners
- Put a towel in the bath if you’re working above it
Use gentle, non-abrasive cleaners and avoid dropping heavy items on the repaired area. Deal with new chips early, before rust sets in.
Rust under enamel spreads surprisingly quickly. Left for months, a small chip can grow into a large rust patch, so it pays to deal with it early.

Your questions about bath repair in Penhale Jakes
Do you cover Penhale Jakes?
We do. Technicians travel to Penhale Jakes from across the region, and the price is the same as everywhere else.
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
Please keep children and pets out of the room during the visit and until it has cured. Everywhere else in the home is fine.
Is the work guaranteed?
Yes: twelve months. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.
Is a holed acrylic bath repairable?
Normally, yes, if we can reach behind it. The hole is backed, filled and refinished to match.
When can you do it?
We will give you dates with your quote. If it’s urgent, say so and we will do what we can.
Is there a call-out fee?
There is no separate call-out charge. Your fixed price includes everything.
Can you repair several things at once?
Yes. Doing several items on one visit generally costs less than separate visits. Send photos of everything you’d like done.
It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?
Most of the time. Let us know what was used before and we’ll plan for it.
Should I try a DIY kit first?
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it won’t stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.
