Bath repair near Treburley

Bath repair in Treburley, done in place

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. We’re often asked to fix holes from dropped items and damage beneath the taps, across whirlpool & spa baths, acrylic and cast iron enamel.

A one-year guarantee comes with the work, just as it does everywhere we cover.

The process

Visits start with a quick look at the job together, so there are no surprises. After that, protection goes down around the work area and we start. Allow two to three hours for most chips, and we’ll tell you if anything changes.

  1. Dust sheets and masking go down around the bath.
  2. We clean, key and degrease the damage.
  3. Filler goes in and is sanded flush once it has set.
  4. Colour and gloss are matched to the surrounding surface.
  5. We tidy up and tell you when the bath can be used, usually the next day.

Before we arrive

  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
  • Make sure the area is dry

Ask for a price

Upload photos of the damage and a wider shot of the entire item, and tell us you are in Treburley, and we’ll reply with a fixed price.

Treburley: your questions answered

Are you accredited?

Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.

Can you fix rust around the plughole?

Yes. We take out the rust and any loose enamel, seal and fill the area, then colour-match the finish.

I tried a repair kit. Can you fix it?

Yes. We take out the old repair and do it properly. Mention it when you send photos.

Can landlords book you?

Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as householders across Cornwall.

Is repairing better than replacing?

Generally, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. If it isn’t worth repairing, we will tell you.

Can you do more than one item on the same visit?

Yes, and it’s frequently cheaper. Send pictures of everything together and you will get one combined price.

Something went through my bath. Can it be fixed?

Usually. Photos of the hole and the underside help us check.

Are there extra charges for Treburley?

No. Our quotes include travel, and we charge the same wherever you are.

For landlords and businesses

Letting agents frequently send us pictures straight from the inventory. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.

Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Treburley use us as well as householders. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it costs much less than replacing.

Signs you need bath repair in Treburley

Glass and heavy bottles cause more chips than anything else. Fittings cause damage too: water collects there, so chips nearby rust quickly.

The most common problems we’re called about are:

  • Chips on the rim or sides
  • Cracks in an acrylic bath
  • Damage beneath the taps
  • An old repair that has yellowed or come loose

Questions to ask before booking

  • What preparation is included
  • What happens if they find more damage
  • Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT
  • How long the guarantee is and what it covers

What affects the price in Treburley

Prices start from £95. Every quote is fixed and free. What we take into account:

  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first

There are no surprise extras on the day. The price we quote from your photos is the price you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.

Quotes from your pictures

Most quotes are done from pictures alone. To make it quick:

  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • A wider photo showing the whole bath
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before

No survey visit is needed: we price from pictures. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through.

Honest limits

We would rather lose a job than do one that won’t last, so these are the limits:

  • Water coming from the waste or taps rather than the bath
  • A bath that flexes because its feet or cradle have failed (that needs fixing first)
  • A steel bath rusted through

Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly.

Materials we work on in Treburley

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

DIY repairs versus a professional job

The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, then guarantee it for a year.

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.

Looking after it afterwards

Much of the damage we repair could have been avoided. These habits help:

  • Don’t scrub with anything abrasive
  • Have new chips seen to early
  • Rinse the bath after use, especially in hard water areas
  • Put a towel in the bath if you’re working above it

Keep metal objects like razors and cans off the surface, because they can mark the enamel. And fix dripping taps promptly.

Small chips are quick to repair. Left alone, they stain and can rust, so early repair saves time and money.

What your bath is made of matters

Acrylic

Acrylic feels warm and is light, but it relies on good support. Cracks are strengthened from behind before the front is finished.

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.
