Bath repair in Aberfeldy, done in place
We repair enamelled steel, cast iron and acrylic baths. The method changes with the material: metal baths need any rust dealt with first, and acrylic cracks need support from behind. Typical jobs include a hole punched through by something heavy and rust by the waste and overflow, on roll-top & freestanding, pressed steel enamel and whirlpool & spa baths.
You get a one-year guarantee, the same in Aberfeldy as everywhere else we work.

Repairing versus replacing in Aberfeldy
When the bath is otherwise sound, repairing beats replacing. It costs less, takes less time and causes far less upheaval, and you keep the bath you chose. If the entire surface is worn, re-enamelling may make more sense, and we will tell you. Our bath repair starts from £95. We charge the same wherever you are, so there is no premium for Aberfeldy. The job itself decides the price: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

Aberfeldy questions
Will the repair last?
It should, as long as the bath is firm and the area was prepared well. It carries our one-year guarantee.
Do you come to Aberfeldy?
We do. We send a technician to Aberfeldy for every job, and the price is the same as everywhere else.
Will you leave a mess?
Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we take our waste away with us.
Do you charge for travel?
Travel is included in the price, with the same prices everywhere we work.
Can you repair a chip on a coloured bath?
Yes, coloured baths are no problem. The colour is tinted by hand on the day.
What happens after I send photos?
We review the photos and send a fixed quote.
Do I need to be at home?
Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time we agree with you.
How invisible is a bath repair?
On a glossy bath, you will struggle to find it. On older, dull enamel the repair can look glossier than the area around it.
What a repair cannot fix
We’d rather lose a job than do one that will not last, so these are the limits:
- A bath that flexes because its feet or cradle have failed (that needs fixing first)
- Acrylic cracks with no access behind them
- A bath worn all over, where resurfacing makes more sense
Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly.
What we work on
- Acrylic
- Whirlpool & spa baths
- Roll-top & freestanding
- Cast iron enamel
- Pressed steel enamel
DIY repairs versus a professional job
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.
Looking after it afterwards
Much of the damage we repair could have been avoided. A few tips:
- Use a soft cloth and washing-up liquid for everyday cleaning
- Rinse it down after each bath
- Get any new chip repaired before it rusts
- Fix dripping taps early to stop staining and limescale
There’s nothing special to do after a repair. Avoid bleach-based and gritty cleaners and give it a rinse after each bath.
Avoid standing in a cracked acrylic bath until it’s fixed. Each time it flexes, the crack grows, and water can get through to the floor below.
What your bath is made of matters
Cast iron
Cast iron baths are thick and very strong, finished with fired enamel. Chips can rust if left, but the body of the bath lasts a very long time, which makes it well worth repairing.
Acrylic
An acrylic bath is a moulded sheet strengthened from below. There is no rust, but cracks, holes and scratches happen, and a crack only stays repaired if it’s supported underneath.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Aberfeldy
Rental properties take more wear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.
We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which is easier on the people living there.
The process
A typical visit goes like this: we arrive at the agreed slot, protect everything around the work area, do the job and tidy away. Plan for a few hours, depending on the damage. Before leaving, we tell you how long to leave it and what to avoid for the first few days.
- First, we check the damage against your pictures and agree the plan.
- Loose enamel, rust and dirt are removed so the repair can bond.
- We build up the filler in layers, shaping it to the bath.
- We tint the finish by hand to match the bath.
- Finally, it’s polished to match the shine and left to cure.
Before we arrive
- Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
- Make sure the room can be ventilated
