Our bath repair service in PL35

Repairing baths is what we do most. A chip by the taps, a crack in the base and a rust spot by the plughole are all repaired in place, normally in one visit. We work on acrylic, cast iron enamel and roll-top & freestanding, and common reasons people contact us are a chipped rim or side and an old repair that has yellowed or come loose.

From the moment we arrive, the aim is to do the job without disturbing the rest of your home. Surfaces nearby are masked off, the work takes a few hours, and we finish with a tidy-up and a look at the finished work together.

  1. We protect the bath and the floor around it.
  2. The damaged area is cleaned, keyed and degreased.
  3. We fill it, let it set, then sand it flush.
  4. Colour and gloss are matched to the surrounding surface.
  5. We tidy up and tell you when the bath can be used, normally the next day.

Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. What it costs depends on how much damage there is and what kind, the material and how many items we do on one visit. You get a fixed quote from your pictures, so you know the cost before booking.

Landmarks near Boscastle

In Boscastle, that means homes near Boscastle Community Primary School, Church of St Symphorian and Wellington Hotel and the streets around them. A little further out are Museum of Witchcraft and Magic (less than half a mile north) and Bottereaux Castle (within half a mile north-east). The countryside around Boscastle includes Condolden.

Honest limits

Before you book, it’s worth knowing the limits:

  • A bath worn all over, where resurfacing makes more sense
  • Leaks from the waste or overflow fittings (a plumber’s job)
  • A steel bath rusted through

Signs you need bath repair

Glass and heavy bottles cause more chips than anything else, with dropped shower heads close behind. Fittings cause damage too: water collects there, so chips nearby rust quickly.

Typical reasons for a call-out include:

  • Impact holes in acrylic
  • Chips on the rim or sides
  • Damage beneath the taps
  • Rusty patches near the plughole

Aftercare tips

Looking after the surface is easy:

  • Store metal items away from the bath
  • A dripping tap stains enamel, so fix it early
  • If an acrylic bath flexes, have its feet adjusted
  • Use a soft cloth and washing-up liquid for everyday cleaning

A repaired bath needs no special treatment, just sensible cleaning. Avoid bleach-based and gritty cleaners and give it a rinse after each bath.

A chip on a metal bath shouldn’t be left. Water gets to the metal and rust starts, turning a quick repair into a bigger one.

Prices and what affects them

Repairs from £95. We price every job individually, from your photos. The main factors are:

  • How hard the colour is to match
  • How many items we do on one visit
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it

There are no surprise extras on the day. The price we quote from your photos is the price you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.

Send photos for a quote

You can take the pictures on your phone. Make sure they show:

  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • Details of any past repairs
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection

Upload a picture of the damage and a wider shot of the whole item, with your PL35 postcode, and we will come back with a fixed quote.

Landlord and trade work in PL35

Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.

Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, putting right damage done during fitting. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.

Questions from PL35

Do you come to PL35?

We do. We send a technician to PL35 for every job, and the price is the same as everywhere else.

It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?

Typically, yes. The old repair comes out first.

Will it make a mess?

Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we take our waste away with us.

Are there extra charges for PL35?

No. Our quotes include travel, with the same prices everywhere we work.

Can you repair a failed DIY repair?

Regularly. The old material comes out, any rust is treated, then we repair it properly.

Do you repair coloured baths?

Yes, coloured baths are no problem. We tint the finish to your bath on site.

Will the price change on the day?

The price is fixed for what the pictures show. Anything extra is discussed before we begin.
