About our bath repair in Stennack

Small damage on a bath is worth repairing early. On steel and cast iron, exposed metal starts to rust, and on acrylic, a crack keeps spreading while the bath flexes. Repairing it stops the damage getting worse. Our repair technicians work on roll-top & freestanding, whirlpool & spa baths and pressed steel enamel, and people most frequently call us about a chipped rim or side and impact holes in acrylic.

Every repair is covered by our one-year guarantee.

How it works

We turn up at the time we agreed with you and checks the damage against your photos first. Dust sheets and masking tape go down before any work starts. The work itself takes two to three hours for most chips, and the room is left clean and tidy.

  1. First, the area is cleaned and any loose enamel or rust is removed.
  2. The chip or crack is filled, then sanded level with the bath.
  3. The colour is mixed on the spot to match your bath.
  4. We build up the finish and polish it into the surrounding enamel.
  5. The repair is left to cure, and most baths can be used the next day.

Preparing for the visit

  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
  • Ensure the area is dry
  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day

What affects the price in Stennack

Prices start from £95. We give every job a fixed price from pictures. This is what makes a difference:

  • The type of damage
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • What the surface is made of
  • Whether we combine several jobs

Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Send photos and we will give you the exact figure.

Send photos for a quote

Two or three clear pictures are generally enough. Try to include:

  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings

Upload photos of the damage and one of the whole item, with your TR14 postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed price.

Landlord and trade work in Stennack

Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs in Cornwall and across the UK. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which matters when someone is living in the home.

Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Stennack use us as well as homeowners. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it normally costs far less than a refit.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is normally the cheaper route.

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair will not last.

What your bath is made of matters

Acrylic

Acrylic feels warm and is light, but it relies on good support. Repairs to cracks are reinforced from the back.

Pressed steel

Pressed steel is thinner and lighter, with an enamel finish like cast iron. Chips rust quickly on steel, particularly by the plughole, so early repairs matter.

What we can’t put right

Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:

  • Wear across the whole surface, which needs re-enamelling
  • A steel bath rusted through
  • Leaking fittings, which need a plumber

If in doubt, send pictures and we will say what we think before booking.

Materials we repair

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

How to care for the repair

Nothing complicated is needed:

  • If an acrylic bath flexes, have its feet adjusted
  • Have new chips seen to early
  • Don’t scrub with anything abrasive
  • Use a soft cloth and washing-up liquid for everyday cleaning

Use gentle, non-abrasive cleaners and avoid dropping heavy items on the repaired area. Deal with new chips early, before rust can start.

Until we visit, a strip of waterproof tape over the damage helps, to keep water out. Remove it before the repair.
