Bath repair at your home in St Buryan
Bath repair is our most common job. A chip by the taps, a crack in the base and a rust spot by the plughole are all fixed without removing the bath, normally in a single visit. If you are dealing with snagging damage from a refit and a cracked acrylic bath, we can normally put it right, on acrylic, roll-top & freestanding and whirlpool & spa baths alike.
You get a one-year guarantee, the same in St Buryan as everywhere else we work.

Aftercare tips
Much of the damage we repair could have been avoided. These habits help:
- Rinse the bath after use, especially in hard water areas
- Protect the bath with a towel when doing jobs nearby
- Keep metal cans and razors off the surface
- Fix dripping taps early to stop staining and limescale
A repaired bath needs no special treatment. Skip bleach and gritty creams and give it a rinse after each bath.
Stop using the bath if a crack lets water through until it’s repaired. Water under the bath can damage the floor and the ceiling below.
What bath repair costs
Prices start from £95. We don’t charge extra for travel to St Buryan. The price depends on:
- What kind of damage it is
- What the surface is made of
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- The colour and finish to match
Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Send pictures and we will give you the exact figure.
Getting a price from pictures
You can usually get a fixed quote without us visiting. To help us price it:
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- Details of any past repairs
- Natural light rather than flash
A quote takes minutes to ask for: photograph the damage, then the entire bath, add your postcode and send them to us. You will get a fixed price, not an estimate.
What a repair can’t fix
We won’t take on work that won’t last, so here’s what a repair can’t put right:
- A bath that flexes because its feet or cradle have failed (that needs fixing first)
- A whole bath that is dull or worn, where a full re-enamel is the better fix
- Acrylic cracks with no access behind them
Send us pictures and we will tell you honestly before you book.
Materials we repair
- Acrylic
- Whirlpool & spa baths
- Cast iron enamel
- Roll-top & freestanding
- Pressed steel enamel
St Buryan questions
Can you do more than one item on the same visit?
Yes, and it’s often cheaper. Send pictures of everything together and you’ll get one combined price.
Is a bath repair durable?
Done properly, a repair lasts for years, and it’s guaranteed for a year. Gentle cleaning helps it last.
Can tenants book a repair?
Of course. Check with your landlord; we can send the quote to them too.
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
Yes, regularly. Removing the old work can add time, and that is in the quote.
Do I have to be there?
Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time that suits you.
What does bath repair cost?
Repairs from £95. The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from photos. You’ll get a fixed figure before you book.
Can a cracked acrylic bath be fixed?
Frequently, yes, if we can reach the underside to reinforce it. Check under the bath panel, or send us a picture.
Can you fix rust around the plughole?
Yes. We remove the rust and loose enamel, fill the area, then colour-match the finish.
What we do, step by step
The work is clean and fairly quiet, so you can carry on at home. We protect the area first, then the work takes a few hours, depending on the damage. Before we leave, we explain the curing time and the aftercare.
- First, the area is cleaned and any loose enamel or rust is removed.
- We fill the damage and sand it flush with the surrounding surface.
- 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 typically use the bath the next day.
Preparing for the visit
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
- Open a window if you can
- Let us know which floor the room is on
How to get a price

For anyone letting property in or around St Buryan, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Just send pictures for each address and we will price them together.
Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets need rooms back in use quickly, so we keep visits short and tidy. We will fit around changeovers where we can.
Should you replace it?
If the rest of the bath is in good condition, a repair is almost always the better choice. It’s quicker, cheaper and far less disruptive, and you keep the bath you chose. Where the entire surface is tired, we may suggest re-enamelling instead. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Every job is a little different, so we price each one individually. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all play a part, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.
Why us?

- Accredited with CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor

- No extra charge for your area

Can I fix it myself?
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair will not last.
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
Common problems we fix in St Buryan
Glass and heavy bottles cause more chips than anything else, with dropped shower heads close behind. Taps and wastes cause problems too: water collects there, so chips nearby rust quickly.
If you can see any of these, send us a photo:
- Damage beneath the taps
- Cracks in an acrylic bath
- A hole punched through by something heavy
- Rust by the waste and overflow
What to look for in a quote
- What happens if the damage is worse than the pictures show
- Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?
- Aftercare advice
- How your room will be protected
