Bath repair at your home in Upton Towans
Whatever the damage, the aim is the same: a repair that is smooth, sound and hard to spot. Proper preparation, careful filling and shaping, then colour and gloss matching so it sits flush with the rest of the bath. Typical jobs include rust spots around the plughole and a kit repair that didn’t last, on whirlpool & spa baths, pressed steel enamel and acrylic.
All our work is covered by our one-year guarantee, wherever you are in Cornwall.

How we price bath repair
Repairs from £95. We do not charge extra for travel to Upton Towans. The price depends on:
- The material and finish
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- How much damage there is
Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and combining items on one visit brings it down.
Send pictures for a quote
Phone pictures are fine, there’s no need for anything special. Just ensure we can see:
- What it’s made of, if you know
- Something in shot to show the size
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
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.
Honest limits
In fairness, some problems need a different fix:
- Cracks in parts of an acrylic bath we can’t get to from below
- Metal that has corroded all the way through
- A bath that moves underfoot, until its support is fixed
If in doubt, send photos and we’ll say what we think.
Materials we repair
- Roll-top & freestanding
- Cast iron enamel
- Whirlpool & spa baths
- Pressed steel enamel
- Acrylic
Landlord and trade work in Upton Towans
For anyone letting property in or around Upton Towans, we will quote for several properties at once. Send photos for each one and we’ll come back with a combined price.
Rental properties take more wear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.
Why repair rather than replace?
Replacing a fitted bath normally involves a plumber, removing the old bath, making good the tiles and panel and disposing of the old one. Repairing it fixes just the damaged area in one visit. Our bath repair starts from £95. We charge the same wherever you are, with no extra for Upton Towans. What changes the price is the job itself: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.
Why Upton Towans customers choose us
- One-year guarantee on every repair
- CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited
- Normally one visit, start to finish
- Rooms protected and left tidy

When to call us in Upton Towans
The usual cause is something heavy dropped into the bath, and a lot happen during bathroom refits. Cracks in acrylic have a different cause: poor support underneath, so the bath flexes when it’s full.
It’s worth getting a quote if you see:
- A cracked acrylic bath
- Rust spots around the plughole
- Deep scratches in acrylic
- Impact holes in acrylic
What to look for in a quote
- How soon you can use it again
- Whether a trained technician does the job
- Whether there are any call-out or travel charges
- Whether they match the colour on site

Upton Towans: your questions answered
What if the damage is worse than the photos show?
The price is fixed for what the pictures show. Anything extra is discussed before we begin.
Is a bath repair durable?
It should, as long as the bath is firm and the area was prepared well. It’s covered by our one-year guarantee.
I rent my home. Can I book you?
Yes, but check with your landlord or agent first. Landlords are often glad to have it sorted.
Does someone need to be in?
Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time that suits you.
Can you price it without visiting?
Typically, yes. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed quote.
Can you fix rust around the plughole?
Yes. We take out the rust and any loose enamel, fill the area, then colour-match the finish.
Can you repair a chip on a coloured bath?
Yes. The colour is mixed on site to suit your bath, including pastel and older colours.

What happens on the day
We work cleanly and quietly, so you can stay at home while we are there. Protection goes down first, then the work takes a few hours, depending on the damage. At the end we talk you through the curing time and the aftercare.
- 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
- Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
- Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area

What your bath is made of matters
Pressed steel
Under the enamel of a steel bath is thin metal. Once a chip exposes it, rust follows quickly, so we treat and seal the metal before filling.
Acrylic
An acrylic bath is a moulded sheet strengthened from below. There’s no rust, but cracks, holes and scratches happen, and cracks need support from behind to stay fixed.
DIY repairs versus a professional job
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, 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 is not prepared the repair won’t last.
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is typically the cheaper route.
