The process
You do not need to empty the room beforehand. Everything we use comes in the van with us, lay protective sheets and get going once we’ve agreed what we’re doing. Most jobs take a few hours, depending on the damage, and you’re welcome to carry on with your day while we work.
- We protect the bath and the floor around it.
- We clean, key and degrease the damage, and any rust is treated.
- Filler goes in and is sanded flush once it has set.
- Colour and gloss are matched to the surrounding surface.
- We clear up and give you the curing time, normally until the next day.
Preparing for the visit
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
- Make sure the room can be ventilated
- Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area

How we handle bath repair in Salcombe Regis
Most bath damage, from chips and cracks to rust spots and holes, can be repaired with the bath left exactly where it is. There is no plumbing to disconnect, your tiles stay as they are, and the finish is matched to the rest of the bath. We regularly repair acrylic, cast iron enamel and whirlpool & spa baths, and common reasons people get in touch are chips on the rim or sides and scratches you can feel with a fingernail.
Your repair is guaranteed for a year, as with every job we do.

FAQs for Salcombe Regis
What information do you need?
Send photos through the quote form or call 0345 017 0787.
Is my repair covered?
Every repair comes with a one-year guarantee. We’ll explain what it covers when we quote.
Do you do work for letting agents?
Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as homeowners across Devon.
Do the materials smell?
There may be a mild smell during the work, which fades afterwards.
Do you hold any accreditations?
We’re accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.
Something went through my bath. Can it be fixed?
Typically. Photos of the hole and the underside help us check.
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
Typically, yes. We remove the old repair before doing a new one, so let us know about it.
Can you redo an old repair?
Yes. We remove the old filler and start again. Mention it when you send pictures.
Should you replace it?
If the rest of the bath is in good condition, a repair is almost always the better choice. It costs less, takes less time and causes far less upheaval, and the bathroom stays as it is. Where the entire surface is tired, we may suggest re-enamelling instead. Our bath repair starts from £95. We charge the same wherever you are, with no extra for Salcombe Regis. The job itself decides the price: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

- CHAS and Constructionline accredited

Landlords, agents and businesses in Salcombe Regis
Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets can’t afford rooms out of action for long, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We will fit around changeovers where we can.
Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which is easier on the people living there.
When a repair is not the answer
A few problems are outside what a surface repair can do:
- A whole bath that is dull or worn, where a full re-enamel is the better fix
- Metal that has corroded all the way through
- Flexing caused by a failed cradle or loose feet
Not sure? Send photos and we will give you a straight answer before you book.
Materials we repair

What we are called out for in Salcombe Regis
Heavy toiletries are the biggest single cause of chips. Taps and wastes cause problems too: water collects there, so chips nearby rust quickly.
Keep an eye out for any of the following:
- A cracked acrylic bath
- Chips under the taps
- Scratches you can feel with a fingernail
- An old repair that has yellowed or come loose
What to look for in a quote
- Whether there are any call-out or travel charges
- A fixed price, and whether VAT is included
- Who turns up on the day
- Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price
Materials and what they mean for the repair
Cast iron
A cast iron bath is heavy enough that most people never want to move it. Only the enamel surface wears or chips, and that is what we repair.
Acrylic
Acrylic is light and warm to the touch, but it relies on good support. Cracks are strengthened from behind before the front is finished.
Looking after it afterwards
Nothing complicated is needed, just a few sensible habits:
- Use a soft cloth and washing-up liquid for everyday cleaning
- Get any new chip repaired before it rusts
- Keep abrasive pads and gritty cleaners away from the bath
- Don’t leave razors or cans standing in the bath
A repaired bath needs no special treatment, just sensible cleaning. Skip bleach and gritty creams and give it a rinse after each bath.
Small chips are quick to repair. Leave them and they collect dirt, stain and, on metal baths, rust, so early repair saves time and money.
Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £95. There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price depends on:
- How easy the damage is to reach
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- How hard the colour is to match
- How many items we do on one visit
There are no surprise extras on the day. What we quote from your pictures is what you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.
Quotes from your pictures
You can take the photos on your phone. Just make sure we can see:
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- One picture of the entire bath
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
Email us a picture of the damage and one of the entire item, and tell us you are in Salcombe Regis, and we’ll come back with a fixed quote.
