Bath repair at your home in Tytherleigh
Repairing baths is what we do most. A chip by the taps, a crack in the base and a rust spot by the plughole are all fixed without removing the bath, normally in a single visit. Our technicians work on pressed steel enamel, acrylic and roll-top & freestanding, and people most frequently call us about damage beneath the taps and rust spots around the plughole.
Peace of mind is built in: each job carries a one-year guarantee, and we explain what it covers before you book.

When a repair is not the answer
A repair isn’t right for every job, for example:
- Cracks in parts of an acrylic bath we cannot get to from below
- Water coming from the waste or taps rather than the bath
- A whole bath that is dull or worn, where a full re-enamel is the better fix
Not sure? Send pictures and we will give you a straight answer.

Can I fix it myself?
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair won’t last.
How we price bath repair
Repairs from £95. There is no area surcharge for Tytherleigh. The price reflects:
- The material and finish
- How hard the colour is to match
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- How many areas need work
A repair is priced on what needs doing, not your postcode. The full price is agreed before you book, with no extras added later.
Send photos for a quote
We price nearly every job from photos. This is what we need:
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- A wider photo showing the whole bath
- Where you are, by postcode
To get a price, send a couple of pictures through our quote form or call us. We will say immediately whether it can be repaired.
Tytherleigh: your questions answered
What areas do you cover?
Everywhere in the UK, Tytherleigh included. There is no extra charge for travel.
Will you leave a mess?
Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and tidy up before we leave.
What about rust by the waste?
Yes. We remove the rust and loose enamel, fill the area, then colour-match the finish.
How invisible is a bath repair?
The goal is a repair that blends in. The rest of the bath’s condition makes a difference, and we’ll tell you what to expect.
What does bath repair cost?
Repairs from £95. Because every job differs, we price from photos. You know the full cost before anything is booked.
It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?
Yes, we frequently do. Removing the old work can add time, and that is in the quote.
Do you come to Tytherleigh?
Yes. We work across the UK and come to Tytherleigh and the rest of Devon. Send pictures and we’ll quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
How quickly can you book me in?
That depends on our diary for your area. Send photos with your postcode and we will reply with the earliest dates.

What we do, step by step
We agree an arrival time beforehand. Once we’re there, the work takes a few hours in most cases. The room is left tidy and ready to use once it has cured.
- 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.
- The damage is filled in layers and shaped to the curve of the bath.
- The colour is tinted by hand until it matches.
- The repair is polished to the same gloss as the bath and left to cure.
How to prepare
- Let the surface dry out before the visit
- Point us to the nearest place to park
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
Ask for a price

Signs you need bath repair in Tytherleigh
Nearly all the chips we see start with something being dropped: a shampoo bottle, a shower head, a tile or a tool during a refit. On enamelled baths, a chip that reaches the metal lets water in, and rust follows.
Contact us if you’ve noticed any of these:
- Holes from dropped items
- Scuffs and scratches in the surface
- Damage done while the bathroom was being fitted
- Rust spots around the plughole
What your quote should include
- How changes to the job are handled
- Whether the colour is mixed to match
- The length of the guarantee and what it covers
- Whether there are any call-out or travel charges
Work for landlords and builders
We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams in Devon and across the UK. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which matters when someone is living in the home.
Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets need rooms back in use quickly, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We will fit around changeovers where we can.
Why repair rather than replace?
Swapping a damaged bath for a new one normally involves a plumber, lifting out the old bath, making good the tiles and panel and disposing of the old one. Repairing it deals only with the damage in a single visit. Prices start from £95. It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Send photos and you will get a fixed figure.
Why Tytherleigh clients choose us
- One visit for most repairs
- We’ll tell you if it’s not worth repairing
- Fixed prices from your pictures
- Nothing taken out or refitted

Aftercare tips
To keep it looking its best:
- Avoid scourers, wire wool and gritty cream cleaners
- Cover the bath during DIY or decorating
- Keep metal cans and razors off the surface
- Ensure an acrylic bath is firm underfoot
Do not leave razors, cans or hair grips in the bath, because they can mark the enamel. A dripping tap should be fixed early, too.
Rust under enamel spreads surprisingly quickly. A chip the size of a fingernail can become a much larger patch if it’s left for months, so it pays to deal with it early.
