Bath repair at your home in Penleigh
We repair just the damaged spot and colour-match it to the bath, which costs far less than replacing a fitted bath. Most baths can be used again the next day. We regularly repair pressed steel enamel, roll-top & freestanding and cast iron enamel, and people most often call us about scratches you can feel with a fingernail and holes from dropped items.
The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If something is not right in that time, we come back and put it right.

Common problems we fix in Penleigh
Heavy toiletries are the biggest single cause of chips, closely followed by shower heads. Taps and wastes cause problems too: water collects there, so chips nearby rust quickly.
Keep an eye out for any of the following:
- A chipped rim or side
- Impact holes in acrylic
- Scratches you can feel with a fingernail
- Chips caused by builders
Questions to ask before booking
- How the room is protected while they work
- How long it needs to cure
- Whether the price covers travel
- Whether a trained technician does the job
When we’d advise against a repair
Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair can’t fix:
- Water coming from the waste or taps rather than the bath
- A whole bath that is dull or worn, where a full re-enamel is the better fix
- Flexing caused by a failed cradle or loose feet

Your questions about bath repair in Penleigh
Do you come to Penleigh?
We do. We send a technician to Penleigh for every job, with no extra charge for travel.
I rent my home. Can I book you?
Of course. Ask your landlord first, and we can send them the quote if that helps.
Do the materials smell?
There may be a mild smell during the work, which fades afterwards.
What happens after I send photos?
We review the pictures and send a fixed quote.
Do I need to be at home?
We need someone to let us in. You don’t need to watch us work.
What happens if you find more damage?
If we find something the pictures didn’t show, we explain it first. The price only changes if you agree.
Can a cracked acrylic bath be fixed?
Usually, yes, if we can reach the underside to reinforce it. Check under the bath panel, or send us a photo.
Is it messy?
Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we take our waste away with us.
What your bath is made of matters
Pressed steel
Steel baths and trays have a thin metal body under the enamel. 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, and often freestanding. Chips and scratches are filled and matched, in much the same way.

DIY repairs versus a professional job
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.

The process
Arrival times are agreed in advance. Once we are there, the work takes a few hours in most cases. We leave the room clean.
- We clean the area and remove any loose enamel or rust.
- Next we fill the damage and sand it smooth and level.
- We tint the finish on the day to suit your bath’s shade of white or colour.
- We apply the finish coats and polish the repair so it blends in.
- We leave it to cure; you can normally use the bath the following day.
Before we arrive
- Let us know about parking or access
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
- Let the surface dry out before the visit

Looking after it afterwards
Simple care helps the repair last. Our advice:
- Have new chips seen to early
- A dripping tap stains enamel, so fix it early
- Avoid scourers, wire wool and gritty cream cleaners
- Use a soft cloth and washing-up liquid for everyday cleaning
Leave the repair to cure for as long as we say before using the bath. After that, gentle cleaning keeps it looking good.
Don’t leave a chip on a steel or cast iron bath. Once water reaches the metal, rust begins, turning a quick repair into a bigger one.
Landlords, agents and businesses in Penleigh
If you manage property in Penleigh, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Just send photos for each address and we’ll price them together.
We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Just send photos, the address and how to get access and we’ll arrange it.
Repair or replace: which is better?
When the bath is otherwise sound, repairing beats replacing. It’s quicker, cheaper and far less disruptive, and you keep the bath you chose. If the entire surface is worn, re-enamelling may make more sense, and we will tell you. Prices start from £95. The price depends on how much damage there is and what kind, the material and how many items we do on one visit. You get a fixed quote from your photos, so you know the cost before you book.
