Bath and surface repairs in Shetland Islands

Bath repair at your home in the Shetland Islands

Most baths can be used again the next day. We repair just the damaged spot and colour-match it to the bath, which costs far less than replacing a fitted bath. We work on pressed steel enamel, cast iron enamel and acrylic, and common reasons people get in touch are damage caused while the bathroom was being fitted and cracks and holes in acrylic baths.

Nearly all the chips we see starts with something being dropped: bottles, shower heads, tiles and tools. On enamelled baths, any chip down to the metal lets water in, and rust follows. Acrylic baths tend to crack if they aren’t properly supported, usually near the taps or the waste.

On the day, the technician arrives at the agreed time, protects the room with dust sheets and masking and gets started. Expect it to take a few hours. We clean up when we’re done and tell you when it’s ready to use.

  1. First, the area is cleaned and any loose enamel or rust is removed.
  2. The chip or crack is filled, then sanded level with the bath.
  3. The colour is mixed on the spot to match your bath.
  4. Finish coats go on, then the repair is polished to blend in.
  5. The repair is left to cure, and most baths can be used the next day.

Questions from the Shetland Islands

Can you fix rust around the plughole?

Yes. We remove the rust and loose enamel, fill the area, then colour-match the finish.

How soon can I use it again?

Usually by the next day, depending on the job. We’ll confirm the exact time when we finish.

Should I repair or replace?

Usually, when the rest is in good condition. A repair avoids removal and making good. If replacing would be better, we’ll say so.

Do I need to be at home?

Yes, usually. We need access to the room for the visit, and we’ll agree a time with you.

Can landlords and businesses in the Shetland Islands book you?

Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders, hotels and homeowners across the Shetland Islands.
