When a repair is not the answer

- Water coming from the waste or taps rather than the bath
- A bath worn all over, where resurfacing makes more sense
- Cracks in acrylic we cannot reach from underneath

Bath repair in Tolvaddon, done in place
We repair just the damaged spot and colour-match it to the bath, which is far cheaper than replacing a fitted bath. You can typically use the bath the day after. We regularly repair cast iron enamel, whirlpool & spa baths and acrylic, and the jobs we see most are rusty patches near the plughole and deep scratches in acrylic.
Peace of mind is built in: each job carries a one-year guarantee, and we explain what it covers before booking.

Tolvaddon: your questions answered
What information do you need?
Photos of the damage, a picture of the whole bath and your postcode. After that, we just agree a date.
Will I be able to see the repair?
On a bath in good condition, a colour-matched repair is very hard to spot. On older, dull enamel the repair can look glossier than the area around it.
Do you work in Tolvaddon?
Yes. We cover the whole UK and come to Tolvaddon and the rest of Cornwall. Send us photos for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
Do you work for landlords and businesses?
Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as homeowners.
Do you cover the whole of Cornwall?
All of Cornwall, and the rest of the UK. There’s no extra charge for travel.
I rent my home. Can I book you?
We can work for tenants, landlords or agents. Just ensure the landlord agrees.
Do I have to be there?
We need someone to let us in. You do not need to watch us work.
Is it safe with children and pets around?
On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children.
Work for landlords and builders
We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Tolvaddon as well as homeowners. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it typically costs far less than a refit.
We’re used to working with agents and managing companies. Send the address, photos and access details.
Signs you need bath repair in Tolvaddon
Rust tends to begin where water collects, around the waste, under the taps or in an old chip. Water on bare metal causes rust that creeps under the surrounding enamel.
Most people contact us when they notice something like this:
- Chips on the rim or sides
- A hole punched through by something heavy
- Chips caused by builders
- Chips under the taps
Questions to ask before you book
- How soon you can use it again
- How to care for the finish
- A fixed price, and whether VAT is included
- How changes to the job are handled
What affects the price in Tolvaddon
Repairs from £95. You will not pay by the hour. The price depends on:
- How many areas need work
- What the surface is made of
- How easy the damage is to reach
- What kind of damage it is
We charge the same wherever you are, so there is no premium for Tolvaddon. The job itself decides the price: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.
How to get a fixed price
Before you send photos, a few simple things make all the difference:
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
No survey visit is needed: we price from photos. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through, and we’ll come back with a fixed figure.
Looking after it afterwards
To keep it looking its best:
- Give the bath a quick rinse after use
- Use a soft cloth and washing-up liquid for everyday cleaning
- Check that an acrylic bath doesn’t move when you stand in it
- A dripping tap stains enamel, so fix it early
There is nothing special to do after a repair, just sensible cleaning. Avoid bleach-based and gritty cleaners and rinse after use.
Until we visit, a strip of waterproof tape over the damage helps, so water can’t get in. Take it off before we arrive.
What we do, step by step
Expect a friendly, tidy visit. We confirm the time with you beforehand, protect the area, then carry out the work, which generally takes a morning or an afternoon. If anything looks different from your pictures, we’ll talk to you before going ahead.
- We start by looking at the damage and confirming the plan with you.
- Any rust and loose material comes out, and the area is degreased.
- We build up the filler in layers, shaping it to the bath.
- The colour is tinted by hand until it matches.
- Finally, it’s polished to match the shine and left to cure.
How to prepare
- Keep a parking space free if you can
- Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
- Make sure the area is dry
Getting a price

Should you replace it?
Many people think a damaged bath means a new one. Generally it doesn’t: a proper repair gives it years more use, and costs far less than the disruption of a replacement. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Every job is a little different, so we price each one individually. The size and type of damage, the material and access all play a part, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.
What you get with us
- No extra charge for your area
- Colour mixed on the day to match
- Every repair guaranteed for a year
- We leave the room as we found it

What your bath is made of matters
Composite and resin
Stone resin and composite baths are heavy and solid. Chips and scratches are filled and matched, in much the same way.
Cast iron
Cast iron baths are thick and very strong, with a fused enamel surface. Chips can rust if left, but the bath itself lasts for generations, which makes it well worth repairing.
