How bath repair works in PL5
Whatever the damage, the aim is the same: a repair that is smooth, sound and hard to spot. We prepare the area properly, fill and shape it, then match the colour and gloss so it’s level with the surrounding surface. Typical jobs include a chipped rim or side and damage done while the bathroom was being fitted, across cast iron enamel, acrylic and pressed steel enamel.
We work cleanly and quietly, so you can stay at home while we are there. We protect the area first, then the work takes a few hours, depending on the damage. At the end we talk you through how soon it can be used and how to care for it.
- We start by looking at the damage and confirming the plan with you.
- Loose enamel, rust and dirt are removed so the repair can bond.
- The damage is filled in layers and shaped to the curve of 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 generally costs much less than people expect, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Send photos and we will give you the exact figure.

Near you in St Budeaux
We visit homes around St Boniface Church, Central Park and Victoria Road Primary. You’ll also find The Trelawney Arms (under half a mile south), Marine Academy Plymouth (0.5 miles north-east), Marine Academy Detachment (0.5 miles north-east) and St Budeaux Library (less than half a mile west). There is a railway station in St Budeaux itself: St Budeaux Victoria Road station. Nearby you will also find Plymouth General Hospital (2 miles south) and Armada Centre (2.7 miles south-east).
How the damage happens
Glass and heavy bottles cause more chips than anything else, closely followed by shower heads. Taps and wastes cause problems too: water sits around them, and any chip there soon rusts.
You may need us if you’ve spotted:
- A hole punched through by something heavy
- Snagging damage from a refit
- Scratches you can feel with a fingernail
- Rust spots around the plughole
Work for landlords and builders
For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover. We can visit several plots in one trip.
Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets need rooms back in use quickly, so we keep visits short and tidy. We will fit around changeovers where we can.
Aftercare tips
Simple care helps the repair last. Our advice:
- Get a dripping tap fixed promptly
- Rinse it down after each bath
- Avoid scourers, wire wool and gritty cream cleaners
- Don’t leave a fresh chip for long
Don’t leave razors, cans or hair grips in the bath, because they can mark the enamel. And fix dripping taps promptly.
Until we visit, a strip of waterproof tape over the damage helps, so water can’t get in. Take it off before we arrive.
What affects the price in PL5
Prices start from £95. A fixed quote means you know the cost before booking. We take into account:
- How hard the colour is to match
- What the surface is made of
- Access to the area
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
A few things move the price: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.
Getting a price from photos
A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. Try to include:
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- Details of any past repairs
- A picture taken from further back
If you are in PL5 and want a price, the easiest route is photos: one close up, one from further back, plus your postcode. We reply with a fixed quote and our next available dates.
When a repair isn’t the answer
We will always be straight with you, so here’s what a repair will not do:
- Metal that has corroded all the way through
- A bath worn all over, where resurfacing makes more sense
- Acrylic cracks with no access behind them
