Bath repair near St Endellion

Bath repair at your home in St Endellion

We repair enamelled steel, cast iron and acrylic baths. The method changes with the material: metal baths need any rust dealt with first, and acrylic cracks need support from behind. Whether it’s damage done while the bathroom was being fitted and chips on the rim or sides, we can help.

Peace of mind is built in: our one-year guarantee applies to every job, and we explain what it covers before booking.

Repairing versus replacing in St Endellion

Think about the hidden costs of a new bath: taking out the old one, plumbing, tiling, a panel and redecorating. With a repair, it’s one visit and one price. Our bath repair starts from £95. The price depends on the type and amount of damage, the material and how many jobs we combine into one visit. We give a fixed price from your pictures, so you know the cost before you book.

Why book with us

  • A fixed quote before booking
  • CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited
  • Dust sheets down, tidy finish
  • No need to remove anything

Read our prices page and bath cost comparison.

How we price bath repair

Prices start from £95. There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price is based on:

  • The material and finish
  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • How much damage there is

We do not add 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.

Send pictures for a quote

When you take your pictures, a few simple things make all the difference:

  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • A wider photo showing the entire bath
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before

We price from pictures so you don’t have to wait in for a survey. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through, and you’ll get a fixed figure back.

What your bath is made of matters

Cast iron

Cast iron is heavy and rigid, with a fused enamel surface. Chips can rust if left, but the bath itself lasts for generations, so it’s always worth repairing.

Pressed steel

Steel baths and trays have a thin metal body under the enamel. Exposed steel rusts quickly, so the metal is treated and sealed before the repair.

What a repair can’t fix

We won’t take on work that won’t last, so these are the limits:

  • A bath that flexes because its feet or cradle have failed (that needs fixing first)
  • A whole bath that’s dull or worn, where a full re-enamel is the better fix
  • Leaks from the waste or overflow fittings (a plumber’s job)

Not sure? Send photos and we’ll give you a straight answer before you book.

Materials we repair

  • Acrylic
  • Whirlpool & spa baths
  • Roll-top & freestanding
  • Pressed steel enamel
  • Cast iron enamel

What we do, step by step

We turn up when we said we would and checks the damage against your photos first. Dust sheets and masking tape go down before we open a single tin. The work itself takes a morning or an afternoon, and the room is left clean and tidy.

  1. We start by looking at the damage and confirming the plan with you.
  2. Any rust and loose material comes out, and the area is degreased.
  3. The damage is filled in layers and shaped to the curve of the bath.
  4. The colour is tinted by hand until it matches.
  5. Finally, it’s polished to match the shine and left to cure.

How to prepare

  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access

A quote takes minutes to ask for: take one close-up and one wider shot of the bath, add your postcode and send them over. What comes back is a fixed quote, not a guess.

Advice

St Endellion questions

Can you repair a failed DIY repair?

Yes. We remove the old filler and start again. Mention it when you send pictures.

Will the repair last?

Yes, if it’s prepared properly and the bath is sound. It carries our one-year guarantee.

Can you match an avocado or pink bath?

Yes. The colour is mixed on site to suit your bath, including older coloured suites.

Can you repair something that’s been repaired before?

Generally, yes. Tell us what was done before and we will plan for it.

Are there extra charges for St Endellion?

No. Our quotes include travel, with the same prices everywhere we work.

What if the damage is worse than the pictures show?

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

Will I be able to see the repair?

The goal is a repair that blends in. The rest of the bath’s condition makes a difference.

Is the work guaranteed?

Every repair comes with our one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.

Work for landlords and builders

Hospitality businesses need rooms back in use quickly, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We will fit around changeovers where we can.

Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in St Endellion use us as well as householders. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it generally costs far less than a refit.

How to care for the repair

How the surface is treated afterwards matters:

  • If an acrylic bath flexes, have its feet adjusted
  • Put a towel in the bath if you are working above it
  • Avoid scourers, wire wool and gritty cream cleaners
  • Do not leave razors or cans standing in the bath

Use gentle, non-abrasive cleaners and try not to drop heavy bottles on the repair. Get any new chip seen to quickly, before rust sets in.

If water is getting through a crack, stop using the bath until it’s repaired. Leaks under a bath can damage floors and ceilings.

When to call us in St Endellion

Rust tends to begin where water collects, by the plughole, beneath dripping taps or in an unrepaired chip. Water on bare metal causes rust that creeps under the surrounding enamel.

The most common problems we’re called about are:

  • Snagging damage from a refit
  • Damage beneath the taps
  • A hole punched through by something heavy
  • Scratches you can feel with a fingernail

What your quote should include

  • What happens if the damage is worse than the photos show
  • Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT
  • How long it needs to cure
  • The length of the guarantee and what it covers
