Bath repair across TR12: what to expect

Whatever has happened to the bath, we aim for the same result: a smooth, solid repair that blends in. Proper preparation, careful filling and shaping, then colour and gloss matching so it sits flush with the rest of the bath. Common call-outs are for rust spots around the plughole and hairline or through cracks in acrylic, in pressed steel enamel, roll-top & freestanding and whirlpool & spa baths.

It’s a tidy, low-fuss visit. We agree the arrival time in advance, protect the area, and get on with the job, which typically takes a few hours, depending on the damage. If anything looks different from your pictures, we’ll talk to you before going ahead.

  1. We protect the bath and the floor around it.
  2. We clean, key and degrease the damage, and any rust is treated.
  3. We fill it, let it set, then sand it flush.
  4. We match both the colour and the shine.
  5. We tidy up and tell you when the bath can be used, normally the next day.

What’s near Mullion

Typical jobs here are in homes near Manaccan Primary School, Church of St Melaines and Mullion School. Further afield, we also cover the area around The Marconi Centre (0.9 miles west) and Helston Community Hospital (4.5 miles north). Not far away are The Loe and Goonhilly Downs.

How to care for the repair

After the repair has cured, a few habits help it last:

  • Store metal items away from the bath
  • Put a towel in the bath if you are working above it
  • Have new chips seen to early
  • If an acrylic bath flexes, have its feet adjusted

Use gentle, non-abrasive cleaners and avoid dropping heavy items on the repaired area. Deal with new chips early, before rust sets in.

A chip on a metal bath shouldn’t be left. Water gets to the metal and rust starts, and a rust spot is a bigger repair than a clean chip.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.

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.

What affects the price in TR12

Repairs from £95. You’ll know the full cost before you book. We take into account:

  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • Access to the area
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear

Our prices are the same across the UK, so there’s no premium for TR12. The job itself decides the price: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

Quotes from your photos

Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what we need:

  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • A picture taken from further back
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • Natural light rather than flash

For most jobs, pictures are all we need to give you a price. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.

Should you replace it?

Swapping a damaged bath for a new one normally involves a plumber, lifting out the old bath, re-tiling and a new panel and getting rid of the old bath. Repairing it fixes just the damaged area in a single visit.

Common problems we fix in TR12

Many chips happen while the bathroom is being fitted. Tradespeople drop tools and tiles into the bath, frequently before anyone notices. Snagging repairs like these are a regular job for us.

Send us a photo if you notice any of these:

  • A failed DIY repair that is discoloured or lifting
  • Holes from dropped items
  • Deep scratches in acrylic
  • Chips under the taps

How quickly can you book me in?
