Bath repair in Highland

How bath repair works in Highland

A repair fixes just the damaged area and blends it into the rest of the bath, which costs far less than replacing a fitted bath and the tiles around it. You can usually use the bath the next day. We work on acrylic, pressed steel enamel and cast iron enamel, and common reasons people get in touch are rust spots where the enamel has gone and scratches and burns.

Most bath damage comes from something dropped: a shampoo bottle, a shower head, a tile or a tool during a refit. On enamelled baths, any chip down to the metal will start to rust once water gets in. Acrylic baths tend to crack if they aren’t properly supported, usually near the taps or the waste.

When we visit, we arrive at the time we’ve agreed, cover the area with dust sheets and masking, and set to work. The job usually takes a morning or an afternoon. We tidy up before we leave and let you know when you can use it again.

1. We start by cleaning the damage and taking out loose enamel and rust.
2. We fill the damage and sand it flush with the surrounding surface.
3. The colour is mixed on the spot to match your bath.
4. We apply the finish coats and polish the repair so it blends in.
5. Once it has cured, usually by the next day, the bath is ready to use.

Cost

Prices start from £95. What it costs depends on how much damage there is and what kind, what it’s made of and how many jobs we combine into one visit. We give a fixed price from your photos, so there are no surprises on the day.
