Bath repair in Weston Mill without replacing anything
Whether your bath is steel, cast iron or acrylic, we can repair it. Each material is repaired a little differently: metal baths need any rust dealt with first, and acrylic cracks need support from behind. We are often asked to fix snagging damage from a refit and a failed DIY repair that’s discoloured or lifting, in whirlpool & spa baths, roll-top & freestanding and pressed steel enamel.
The work is covered for a year after we finish. Just call us if there is a problem and we will come back.

Repair or replace: which is better?
A repair makes sense whenever the damage is localised. It costs far less than a new bath plus fitting, it takes one visit, and the bathroom stays exactly as it is. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Set against the cost of replacement, repairing generally costs far less, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

Should I try a DIY kit first?
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 won’t last.
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 then the old filler has to be removed first.

What affects the price in Weston Mill
Prices start from £95. Every quote is fixed and free. What we take into account:
- The type of damage
- How much damage there is
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- The material and finish
We charge the same wherever you are, with no extra for Weston Mill. The job itself decides the price: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.
Quotes from your pictures
Two or three clear photos are generally enough. Try to include:
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- Where you are, by postcode
- Something in shot to show the size
- Any details about the material
Email us a photo of the damage and a wider shot of the whole item, and tell us you are in Weston Mill, and we will reply with a fixed quote.
The process
We begin by going over the job with you, so there are no surprises. Next, we cover and mask everything nearby and we start. It normally takes a morning or an afternoon, and we’ll keep you posted as we go.
- Dust sheets and masking go down around the bath.
- We clean, key and degrease the damage.
- 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.
Before we arrive
- Make sure the area is dry
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
- Open a window if you can

Keeping it looking good
It’s all simple stuff, just a few sensible habits:
- Rinse it down after each bath
- Avoid scourers, wire wool and gritty cream cleaners
- Get a dripping tap fixed promptly
- Get any new chip repaired before it rusts
Use gentle, non-abrasive cleaners and try not to drop heavy bottles on the repair. Deal with new chips early, before rust can start.
Tape over a fresh chip or crack until it’s repaired, so water cannot get in. Take it off before we arrive.
Repairs by material
Acrylic
Acrylic feels warm and is light, but it needs firm support underneath. Repairs to cracks are reinforced from the back.
Composite and resin
Stone resin and composite baths are heavy and solid. Chips and scratches are filled and matched, in much the same way.
Common problems we fix in Weston Mill
Rust tends to begin where water collects, around the waste, under the taps or in an old chip. Water on bare metal causes rust that creeps under the surrounding enamel.
You may need us if you’ve spotted:
- Damage beneath the taps
- A failed DIY repair that is discoloured or lifting
- Snagging damage from a refit
- A hole punched through by something heavy

For landlords and businesses
Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs in Plymouth and across the UK. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which matters when someone is living in the home.

Common questions in Weston Mill
It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?
Generally, yes. Let us know what was used before.
Will I be able to see the repair?
The goal is a repair that blends in. How well it disappears depends on the condition of the rest of the bath.
How quickly can you book me in?
Your quote comes with available dates. If it’s urgent, say so and we will do what we can.
Is a cracked acrylic bath repairable?
Normally, yes, as long as we can get to the back of the crack to support it. Take off the bath panel and check, or send us a picture.
Are you accredited?
We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.
Does someone need to be in?
Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. After that, you can carry on with your day.
Can you quote from photos?
In nearly every case. If photos do not show enough, we’ll ask for another angle.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
Generally, when the rest is in good condition. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. We’ll tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.
