About our bath repair in Tremethick Cross
We repair enamelled steel, cast iron and acrylic baths. Each material is repaired a little differently: rust is treated on metal baths, while cracks in acrylic are reinforced from underneath. We regularly repair whirlpool & spa baths, pressed steel enamel and acrylic, and the jobs we see most are chips on the rim or sides and a hole punched through by something heavy.
The work is covered for a year after we finish. Just call us if there’s a problem and we will come back.

There’s not much you need to do on the day. Let us in and show us the room, and we’ll take it from there. The job generally runs to a morning or an afternoon, including clearing up.
- Dust sheets and masking go down around the bath.
- The damaged area is cleaned, keyed and degreased.
- Filler goes in and is sanded flush once it has set.
- We match both the colour and the shine.
- We clear up and give you the curing time, normally until the day after.
Preparing for the visit
- Make sure the room can be ventilated
- Make sure the area is dry
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible

Advice
Other services in Tremethick Cross
How we price bath repair
Repairs from £95. We give every job a fixed price from pictures. These are the things that affect it:
- How hard the colour is to match
- Whether we combine several jobs
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- What the surface is made of
Instead of hourly rates, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and doing several items at once reduces it.
Quotes from your photos
You can usually get a fixed price without us visiting. To help us price it:
- One picture of the entire bath
- Any details about the material
- Where you are, by postcode
- Natural light rather than flash
Pricing is simple: take a close-up of the damage and a photo from further back, send them over with your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote. Quotes are free and no obligation.
Why repair rather than replace?
People frequently assume a cracked or chipped bath has to come out. In most cases it does not: a proper repair gives it years more use, without the cost and upheaval of replacing it. Our bath repair starts from £95. A repair generally costs much less than people expect, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Send pictures and we’ll give you the exact figure.
Why us?
- No need to remove anything
- Technicians who travel to you, UK-wide
- Free fixed quotes from pictures
- A year’s guarantee on all work

Do you need bath repair in Tremethick Cross?
Acrylic baths that crack nearly always have a support problem. Loose legs, no proper cradle or a floor that gives let the bath move until the acrylic gives way.
These are the problems we’re asked about most:
- A failed DIY repair that’s discoloured or lifting
- Chips along the edge of the bath
- Snagging damage from a refit
- Deep scratches in acrylic
What to look for in a quote
- What protection goes down before work starts
- What happens if the damage is worse than the pictures show
- Whether there are any call-out or travel charges
- When it can be used again
Aftercare tips
A little care keeps the finish looking good. We recommend:
- Use a soft cloth and washing-up liquid for everyday cleaning
- Store metal items away from the bath
- Give the bath a quick rinse after use
- Cover the bath during DIY or decorating
A repaired bath needs no special treatment, just sensible cleaning. Skip bleach and gritty creams.
Rust spreads under enamel faster than most people expect. A chip the size of a fingernail can become a much larger patch if it’s left for months, so early repair keeps the cost down.
Can I fix it myself?
For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
