Bath repair at your home in PL26
You do not need a new bath because of a chip. We fill the damage, shape it to the curve of the bath and refinish it, with the colour mixed on site so the repair is hard to spot. We are often asked to fix chips along the edge of the bath and scuffs and scratches in the surface, across roll-top & freestanding, cast iron enamel and pressed steel enamel.
Visits start with a quick look at the job together, so you know exactly what we are doing. Then the area is sheeted and masked and the work begins. You can expect it to take a morning or an afternoon.
- 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.
Cost
Prices start from £95. A repair is priced on what needs doing, not where you live. The full price is agreed before booking.

- Colours mixed by hand to suit your surface
- No extra charge for your area
- A fixed quote before booking

How to get a price
Pricing is simple: snap the damage close up and then the entire item, send them over with your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote. There is no charge for the quote and you’re under no obligation.
Local landmarks in Mevagissey
Our customers here include homes close to King's Arms Public House, Mevagissey Community Primary School and Church of St Peter. The closest station to Mevagissey is St Austell station, roughly 4.8 miles north. Further afield, we also cover the area around St Austell Community Hospital (3.9 miles north) and Mevagissey Museum (within half a mile east).
For landlords and businesses
We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in PL26 as well as householders. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it generally costs far less than a refit.
Rental properties take more wear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.
Can I fix it myself?
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it does not stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.
Different materials, different repairs
Composite and resin
Stone resin and composite baths are heavy and solid, and frequently freestanding. Chips and scratches are filled and matched, in much the same way.
Pressed steel
Steel baths are lighter than cast iron, but have a similar enamel surface. Chips rust quickly on steel, especially around the waste, so early repairs matter.
Why repair rather than replace?
When the bath is otherwise sound, repairing beats replacing. It costs less, takes less time and causes far less upheaval, and the bathroom stays as it is. If the whole surface is worn, re-enamelling may make more sense, and we will tell you.
Questions to ask before you book
- How to look after the finish
- Whether the colour is mixed to match
- What happens if they find more damage
- When it can be used again
Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £95. There’s no area surcharge for PL26. What changes the price is:
- The material and finish
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- Whether we combine several jobs
- What kind of damage it is
Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is normally a fraction of the price, because there’s no removal, plumbing or making good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.
Getting a price from photos
Good pictures mean an accurate price. Here’s what helps:
- Where you are, by postcode
- Something in shot to show the size
- One picture of the whole bath
- What it’s made of, if you know
Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: take one close-up and one wider shot of the bath, include your postcode and send them over. What comes back is a fixed quote, not a guess.
FAQs for PL26
How much does bath repair cost in PL26?
Prices start from £95. Because every job differs, we price from photos. You will get a fixed figure before booking.
Is repairing better than replacing?
Generally, if the item is otherwise sound. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. We will tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.
How long does the repair take to cure?
Usually within a day, depending on the repair.
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.
How quickly can you book me in?
We will give you dates with your quote. Tell us if you need it done quickly.
Can you repair a hole in a bath?
Normally, yes, if we can reach behind it. The hole is backed, filled and refinished to match.
Will I be able to see the repair?
On a bath in good condition, a colour-matched repair is very hard to spot. On worn enamel, it can look shinier than the rest.
