Surface repairs across PL14

Bath repair across PL14: what to expect

Small damage on a bath is worth repairing early. On steel and cast iron, exposed metal starts to rust, while cracks in acrylic grow each time the bath moves. Repairing it stops the damage getting worse. Our repair technicians work on whirlpool & spa baths, pressed steel enamel and cast iron enamel, and people most often call us about damage done while the bathroom was being fitted and a kit repair that didn’t last.

Nothing needs to be moved out of the room beforehand. We bring everything we need with us, put protection down and get going once we’ve agreed what we’re doing. It usually takes a few hours, depending on the damage, and you are welcome to carry on with your day while we work.

  1. We protect the bath and the floor around it.
  2. We clean, key and degrease the damage, and any rust is treated.
  3. Filler goes in and is sanded flush once it has set.
  4. We match both the colour and the shine.
  5. We tidy up and tell you when the bath can be used, typically the day after.

What it costs in PL14

Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. 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.

Around Liskeard

Locally, our jobs take us to homes close to St Martin's CofE Primary School, St Martin's Church and Liskeard School and Community College and the streets around them. The nearest railway station is Liskeard station, roughly 0.7 miles south-west of the centre. Other landmarks nearby include Liskeard and District Museum (within half a mile west) and Caradon (less than half a mile south-west). Not far away are Caradon Hill.

How the damage happens

Dropped items cause the majority of chips, and a lot happen during bathroom refits. Acrylic baths crack for a different reason: poor support underneath, so the bath flexes when it’s full.

Common reasons people in PL14 contact us are:

  • Deep scratches in acrylic
  • Chips along the edge of the bath
  • Rusty patches near the plughole
  • Hairline or through cracks in acrylic

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Acrylic

Acrylic baths are moulded sheet reinforced underneath. They don’t rust, but they can crack, scratch or be holed, and a crack only stays repaired if it’s supported underneath.

Composite and resin

Composite baths are dense and solid, and frequently freestanding. Chips and scratches are filled and matched, just like other baths.

DIY kit or professional repair?

A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, it’s worth having it done properly.

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is normally cheaper.

What affects the price in PL14

Prices start from £95. There’s no charge for travel to PL14. The price depends on:

  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • How much damage there is
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • How easy the damage is to reach

No two jobs are quite the same, so we price each one individually. The size and type of damage, the material and access all play a part, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

Send pictures for a quote

You can usually get a fixed quote without us visiting. To make it quick:

  • Any details about the material
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • A picture taken from further back
  • Natural light rather than flash

Send us a photo of the damage and one of the whole item, and tell us you are in PL14, and we’ll come back with a fixed quote.

For landlords and businesses

Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, fixing chips and scratches before handover so nothing needs replacing. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.

We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in PL14 as well as homeowners. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it normally costs far less than a refit.

Is it safe with children and pets around?

Keep pets and children away from the work area on the day, mainly so nothing gets touched before it has cured.

Will it make a mess?
