About our bath repair in St Breward

We repair enamelled steel, cast iron and acrylic baths. The method changes with the material: rust is treated on metal baths, while cracks in acrylic are reinforced from underneath. Our technicians work on pressed steel enamel, whirlpool & spa baths and roll-top & freestanding, and the jobs we see most are rust spots around the plughole and cracks in an acrylic bath.

We guarantee the work for a year. If something is not right in that time, we come back and put it right.

What we do, step by step

Your technician turns up at the time we agreed with you, introduces themselves and looks over the damage before anything else. The floor and nearby surfaces are covered before any work starts. The work itself takes a morning or an afternoon, and the room is left clean and tidy.

  1. We protect the bath and the floor around it.
  2. The damaged area is cleaned, keyed and degreased, and any rust is treated.
  3. We fill it, let it set, then sand it flush.
  4. Colour and gloss are matched to the surrounding surface.
  5. We clear up and give you the curing time, normally until the following day.

Related advice

Can I fix it myself?

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it won’t stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.

The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, then guarantee it for a year.

Different materials, different repairs

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.

Composite and resin

Stone resin and composite baths are heavy and solid. Chips and scratches can be filled and colour-matched, just like other baths.

What affects the price in St Breward

Prices start from £95. A fixed quote means you know the cost before booking. We look at:

  • What the surface is made of
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • How many items we do on one visit
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off

Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Send pictures and we will give you the exact figure.

How to get a fixed quote

We price nearly every job from pictures. This is what we need:

  • Natural light rather than flash
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • A wider photo showing the entire bath
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates

For a price in St Breward, photos are the quickest way: a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode. We reply with a fixed quote and our next available dates.

Looking after it afterwards

Looking after the surface is easy:

  • A dripping tap stains enamel, so fix it early
  • Do not leave razors or cans standing in the bath
  • Use a soft cloth and washing-up liquid for everyday cleaning
  • If an acrylic bath flexes, have its feet adjusted

Keep metal objects like razors and cans off the surface, because they can mark the enamel. And fix dripping taps promptly.

Rust spreads under enamel faster than most people expect. A chip the size of a fingernail can become a much larger patch if it’s left for months, so early repair keeps the cost down.

What we can’t put right

A few problems are outside what a surface repair can do:

  • Water coming from the waste or taps rather than the bath
  • A bath worn all over, where resurfacing makes more sense
  • A bath that moves underfoot, until its support is fixed

Not sure? Send pictures and we’ll give you a straight answer.

Common questions in St Breward

Will the price change on the day?

The price is fixed for what the photos show. If there’s more, we’ll tell you before starting.

I rent my home. Can I book you?

Yes. Ask your landlord first, and we can send them the quote if that helps.

What do you need from me?

Send photos through the quote form or call 0345 017 0787, and we’ll do the rest.

Will you leave a mess?

We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and tidy up before we leave.

Can you repair a hole in a bath?

Frequently, if there’s access underneath. The hole is backed, filled and refinished to match.

What about rust by the waste?

Yes. We remove the rust and loose enamel, fill the area, then colour-match the finish.

Do you cover the entire of Cornwall?

We work UK-wide. Our prices are the same everywhere.

Can you do more than one item on the same visit?

Yes. Doing several items on one visit typically costs less than separate visits. Include photos of each item.

Signs you need bath repair in St Breward

Rust usually starts where water sits, around the waste, under the taps or in an old chip. Water on bare metal causes rust that creeps under the surrounding enamel.

Common reasons people in St Breward contact us include:

  • Scratches you can feel with a fingernail
  • Rusty patches near the plughole
  • Hairline or through cracks in acrylic
  • A chip where the taps sit

What to look for in a quote

  • The length of the guarantee and what it covers
  • How your room will be protected
  • How changes to the job are handled
  • When it can be used again
