About our bath repair in St Teath
We have repaired just about every kind of bath damage: dropped-bottle chips, plughole rust, acrylic cracks and impact holes. All of it is repaired where the bath stands with a one-year guarantee. We regularly repair whirlpool & spa baths, cast iron enamel and acrylic, and the jobs we see most are chips on the rim or sides and an old repair that has yellowed or come loose.
We guarantee the work for a year. If there is a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it.

How we price bath repair
Repairs from £95. You won’t pay by the hour. The price depends on:
- The colour and finish to match
- The material and finish
- How easy the damage is to reach
- How much damage there is
Every job is a little different, so each one is priced on its own. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all make a difference, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.
Getting a price from pictures
It only takes a minute to photograph the damage, and it saves a visit. Please include:
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- What it’s made of, if you know
- A photo taken from further back
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
To get a price, send a couple of photos using our quote form or ring us. We’ll say straight away if a repair is the right fix.
DIY kit or professional repair?
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is usually cheaper.
For a hairline mark somewhere you will never see, a kit may be enough. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, a professional repair is worth it.
How the visit works
It’s a tidy, low-fuss visit. We confirm the time with you beforehand, cover and mask the work area, and get on with the job, which normally takes a morning or an afternoon. If we find something your photos didn’t show, we’ll explain it before carrying on.
- We start by looking at the damage and confirming the plan with you.
- Loose enamel, rust and dirt are removed so the repair can bond.
- We build up the filler in layers, shaping it to the bath.
- We tint the finish by hand to match the bath.
- Finally, it’s polished to match the shine and left to cure.
Preparing for the visit
- Ensure the area is dry
- Let us know which floor the room is on
- Point us to the nearest place to park

You do not need a survey visit. Nearly every job can be priced from photos: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we’ll come back to you with a fixed figure.

We don’t add extras on the day. The price we quote from your photos is the price you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.
What you get with us
- Normally one visit, start to finish
- A fixed quote before booking
- Colour mixed on the day to match
- No extra charge for your area

Common problems we fix in St Teath
Dropped items cause the majority of chips, and a lot happen during bathroom refits. Cracks in acrylic have a different cause: the bath isn’t properly supported, so it flexes under weight.
Typical reasons for a call-out include:
- Rust by the waste and overflow
- Damage done while the bathroom was being fitted
- A hole punched through by something heavy
- Chips along the edge of the bath
Before booking anyone

- What happens if they find more damage
- Whether the price covers travel
- Whether the colour is mixed to match
Repairs by material
Composite and resin
Stone resin and composite baths are heavy and solid, and frequently freestanding. Chips and scratches are filled and matched, in much the same way.
Pressed steel
Steel baths are lighter than cast iron, but have a similar enamel surface. Exposed steel rusts fast, especially around the waste, so early repairs matter.
What a repair cannot fix
It helps to know what we can’t do:
- Acrylic cracks with no access behind them
- Wear across the entire surface, which needs re-enamelling
- Rust that has eaten right through a steel bath
Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly.
Materials we repair
- Whirlpool & spa baths
- Acrylic
- Cast iron enamel
- Pressed steel enamel
- Roll-top & freestanding
Questions from St Teath
Do I have to be there?
Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time that suits you.
Can you match an avocado or pink bath?
Yes, we match coloured baths too. The colour is tinted by hand on the day.
Is it safe with children and pets around?
Keep pets and children away from the work area on the day.
Do you cover the entire of Cornwall?
Across the UK, so St Teath is covered. Our prices are the same everywhere.
Will you leave a mess?
We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and tidy up before we leave.
Will the repair show?
On a bath in good condition, a colour matched repair is very hard to spot. On worn enamel, it can look shinier than the rest.
Will there be a smell?
There may be a mild smell during the work.
Can you repair several things at once?
Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Include pictures of each item.
How to look after the repair
Most damage we see is avoidable. These habits help:
- Rinse the bath after use, especially in hard water areas
- Stick to mild cleaners and a soft cloth
- Get a dripping tap fixed promptly
- Keep abrasive pads and gritty cleaners away from the bath
Use gentle, non-abrasive cleaners and avoid dropping heavy items on the repaired area. Deal with new chips early, before rust sets in.
A chip on a metal bath shouldn’t be left. Water gets to the metal and rust starts, and a rust spot is a bigger repair than a clean chip.
