Bath repair at your home in EX1
Bath repair is our most common job. Chips on the rim, rust around the waste and cracks in acrylic are all repaired in place, normally in one visit. We work on acrylic, cast iron enamel and whirlpool & spa baths, and people most frequently call us about cracks in an acrylic bath and rust spots around the plughole.
Your technician turns up when we said we would, introduces themselves and checks the damage against your photos first. The floor and nearby surfaces are covered before we open a single tin. Most visits take a morning or an afternoon, and the room is left clean and tidy.
- We protect the bath and the floor around it.
- We clean, key and degrease the damage.
- We fill it, let it set, then sand it flush.
- Colour and gloss are matched to the surrounding surface.
- We tidy up and tell you when the bath can be used, normally the day after.
Pricing in EX1
Our bath repair starts from £95. Instead of hourly rates, we fix the price before we start. Damage, material and access decide it, and combining items on one visit brings it down.

There’s a railway station in Polsloe itself: Polsloe Bridge station. Further afield, we also cover the area around Exeter City Football Club Museum (0.6 miles west) and Princesshay (0.9 miles west).

When we’d advise against a repair
A repair isn’t always the answer, and we’d rather say so up front. Repairs won’t solve:
- Water coming from the waste or taps rather than the bath
- A whole bath that’s dull or worn, where a full re-enamel is the better fix
- A steel bath rusted through
Prices and what affects them
Repairs from £95. We give every job a fixed price from photos. This is what makes a difference:
- Access to the area
- How many areas need work
- What kind of damage it is
- Doing more than one item at once
A repair is priced on what needs doing, not where you live. You’ll see the full price before you book.
Quotes from your pictures
The better the photos, the more accurate the price. Here’s what we find most useful:
- One picture of the whole bath
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- Any details about the material
There is no need for us to visit first. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price.
Landlords, agents and businesses in EX1
If you manage property in EX1, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Send photos for each one and we will 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.
Materials and what they mean for the repair
Composite and resin
Stone resin and composite baths are heavy and solid, and often freestanding. Chips and scratches are filled and matched, in much the same way.
Acrylic
Acrylic baths are moulded sheet reinforced underneath. There is no rust, but cracks, holes and scratches happen, and a crack only stays repaired if it’s supported underneath.
What we are called out for in EX1
A bath gets knocked about more than you’d think: bottles, shower heads and razors are dropped every day, and taps and wastes are tightened against the surface. Over time, chips and rust spots are almost inevitable.
It’s worth getting a quote if you see:
- Rusty patches near the plughole
- A chipped rim or side
- Cracks in an acrylic bath
- A chip where the taps sit
EX1 questions
When can I have a bath again?
Most baths can be used the following day. We will tell you the exact curing time when we finish.
Is it messy?
We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and tidy up before we leave.
What happens next?
We look at the photos and reply with a fixed price and some dates. If we need another angle, we will ask.
Is a holed acrylic bath repairable?
In most cases. Send us a picture of the hole and one from under the bath if you can.
Are you a vetted contractor?
We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.
Do you work in EX1?
Yes. We work across the UK and travel to EX1 and the rest of Devon. Send pictures and we will quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
Can you quote from photos?
Typically, yes. Clear photos let us give you a fixed price without visiting.
