Our bath repair service in TR18
A damaged bath doesn’t have to mean a new bathroom. Our repair technicians fill, shape and refinish the damage, mixing the colour on the day so the repair is hard to spot. We are frequently asked to fix a failed DIY repair that’s discoloured or lifting and cracks in an acrylic bath, in acrylic, cast iron enamel and roll-top & freestanding.
Visits start with a quick look at the job together, so there are no surprises. Next, we cover and mask everything nearby and we start. It normally takes two to three hours for most chips, and we will keep you posted as we go.
- We start by cleaning the damage and taking out loose enamel and rust.
- The chip or crack is filled, then sanded level with the bath.
- We tint the finish on the day to suit your bath’s shade of white or colour.
- Finish coats go on, then the repair is polished to blend in.
- The repair is left to cure, and most baths can be used the next day.
What you’ll pay
Prices start from £95. We charge the same wherever you are, with no extra for TR18. What changes the price is the job itself: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.
Why book with us
- Colour mixed on the day to match
- A year’s guarantee on all work
- Honest advice, even when it means no job
- Free fixed quotes from pictures

We price from photos so you don’t have to wait in for a survey. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through, and you will get a fixed figure back.

Other local landmarks include Humphry Davy School (less than half a mile north) and Princess May Recreation Ground (within half a mile north). Penzance has its own railway station: Penzance station.

For a walk, there is Castle an Dinas and Marazion Marsh RSPB Reserve.

Signs you need bath repair
Most bath damage comes from something dropped: a shampoo bottle, a shower head, a tile or a tool during a refit. On steel and cast iron baths, a chip that reaches the metal lets water in, and rust follows.
These are the problems we are asked about most:
- Scuffs and scratches in the surface
- Damage done while the bathroom was being fitted
- A hole punched through by something heavy
- Chips under the taps
Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £95. Each job gets its own fixed price. These are the things that affect it:
- The size and number of damaged areas
- Doing more than one item at once
- The type of damage
- Unusual colours or finishes
Instead of hourly rates, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and combining items on one visit brings it down.
How to get a fixed price
Good pictures mean an accurate price. Here’s what we find most useful:
- What it’s made of, if you know
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
There is no need for us to visit first. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed price.
How to care for the repair
Looking after the surface is easy, and it makes a real difference:
- Keep metal cans and razors off the surface
- Get a dripping tap fixed promptly
- Clean with warm water and a mild detergent
- Give the bath a quick rinse after use
Do not leave razors, cans or hair grips in the bath, as they can leave rust marks. And fix dripping taps promptly.
Don’t leave a chip on a steel or cast iron bath. Water gets to the metal and rust starts, turning a quick repair into a bigger one.
For landlords and businesses
If you manage property in TR18, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Send pictures for each one and we will price them together.
Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs in Cornwall and across the UK. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which matters when someone is living in the home.
Repair or replace?
A new bath brings a chain of other jobs: the tiles sitting on the rim tend to break, a new panel is frequently needed, and a plumber has to disconnect and reconnect everything. Repairing the damage avoids all of that.
Questions to ask before you book
- What prep work is covered
- What happens if the damage is worse than the pictures show
- How soon you can use it again
- Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?
TR18 questions
Is the work guaranteed?
All our work carries a one-year guarantee. We’ll explain what it covers when we quote.
Can you repair several things at once?
Of course, and it normally saves money. Send pictures of everything together and we’ll quote them together.
Will there be a smell?
It depends on the job, but frequently a little. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum.
How soon can you come?
We’ll give you dates with your quote. Tell us if you need it done quickly.
Will I be able to see the repair?
The goal is a repair that blends in. The rest of the bath’s condition makes a difference, and we will tell you what to expect.
Are you accredited?
We’re accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.
When can I have a bath again?
Usually within a day, though it depends on what we have done.
