Bath repair in and around Trevenen Bal: photo quotes, tidy work and a year’s guarantee.
- Repairs from £95
- Rust by the waste and overflow
- Hairline or through cracks in acrylic
How it works
Once we’re through the door, the aim is to do the job without disturbing the rest of your home. Surfaces nearby are masked off, the job takes a few hours, depending on the damage, depending on what we find, and we finish by cleaning up and talking you through the result.
- First, the area is cleaned and any loose enamel or rust is removed.
- We fill the damage and sand it flush with the surrounding surface.
- The colour is mixed on the spot to match your bath.
- We build up the finish and polish it into the surrounding enamel.
- The repair is left to cure, and most baths can be used the day after.
How to prepare
- Have a window or extractor fan available
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
How to get a price
For most jobs, photos are all we need to give you a price. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.

What your bath is made of matters
Composite and resin
Stone resin and composite baths are heavy and solid, and frequently freestanding. Chips and scratches can be filled and colour matched, just like other baths.
Pressed steel
Pressed steel is thinner and lighter, with an enamel finish like cast iron. Exposed steel rusts fast, particularly by the plughole, so repair chips early.
What a repair cannot fix
In fairness, some problems need a different fix:
- Leaks from the waste or overflow fittings (a plumber’s job)
- Rust that has eaten right through a steel bath
- Cracks in acrylic we can’t reach from underneath
If in doubt, send photos and we’ll say what we think before you book.
Materials we repair
- Whirlpool & spa baths
- Roll-top & freestanding
- Cast iron enamel
- Pressed steel enamel
- Acrylic
How to care for the repair
After the repair has cured, a few habits help it last:
- Rinse it down after each bath
- Make sure an acrylic bath is firm underfoot
- Fix dripping taps early to stop staining and limescale
- Don’t scrub with anything abrasive
Give the repair the full curing time we recommend before using the bath. From then on, mild cleaning is all it needs.
Tape over a fresh chip or crack until it’s repaired, so water can’t get in. Remove it before the repair.
Repair or replace in Trevenen Bal?
Cast iron baths in particular are worth repairing: getting one out, particularly from an upstairs bathroom, is a big job, and replacing like for like is not cheap. A repair keeps it in place. Prices start from £95. Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and doing several items at once reduces it.
Why book with us
- We come to you, anywhere in the UK
- One-year guarantee on every repair
- Nothing taken out or refitted

- How easy the damage is to reach
- What the surface is made of

Quotes from your photos
It only takes a minute to photograph the damage. Try to send:
- A wider photo showing the whole bath
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- Something in shot to show the size
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
Email us a picture of the damage and one of the entire item, and tell us you’re in Trevenen Bal, and we’ll come back with a fixed quote.

Trevenen Bal questions
Something went through my bath. Can it be fixed?
Frequently, if there is access underneath. The hole is backed, filled and refinished to match.
Can you redo an old repair?
Regularly. We strip it out, deal with any rust and repair it again.
Can tenants book a repair?
Yes, but check with your landlord or agent first. Landlords are often glad to have it sorted before the end of a tenancy.
Do I have to be there?
Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. After that, you can carry on with your day.
Do you hold any accreditations?
Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.

We work UK-wide, so Trevenen Bal is covered. Our prices are the same everywhere.
Do you come to Trevenen Bal?
Yes, we do. We send a technician to Trevenen Bal for every job, and the price is the same as everywhere else.
Will the repair last?
It should, as long as the bath is firm and the area was prepared well. It’s covered by our one-year guarantee.
DIY kit or professional repair?
If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, make sure the area is clean and completely dry, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.
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 isn’t prepared the repair will not last.
