- Damage beneath the taps

Aftercare tips
Most damage we see is avoidable. These habits help:
- Make sure an acrylic bath is firm underfoot
- Give the bath a quick rinse after use
- Stick to mild cleaners and a soft cloth
- Fix dripping taps early to stop staining and limescale
Don’t leave razors, cans or hair grips in the bath, because they can mark the enamel. A dripping tap should be fixed early, too.
Stop using the bath if a crack lets water through until it’s repaired. Water under the bath can damage the floor and the ceiling below.
How we handle bath repair in Aberlour
Small damage on a bath is worth repairing early. Exposed metal on enamelled baths soon rusts, while cracks in acrylic grow each time the bath moves. A repair stops both. If you are dealing with chips caused by builders and scratches you can feel with a fingernail, we can help, on pressed steel enamel, cast iron enamel and roll-top & freestanding alike.
A one-year guarantee comes as standard, so you are not left on your own once we have gone.

What affects the price in Aberlour
Prices start from £95. Every quote is fixed and free. What we look at:
- Unusual colours or finishes
- The size and number of damaged areas
- The type of damage
- Whether we combine several jobs
There are no surprise extras on the day. What we quote from your pictures is what you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.
Send pictures for a quote
Phone photos are fine, there’s no need for anything special. Just make sure we can see:
- A picture taken from further back
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
You do not need a survey visit. Nearly every job can be priced from pictures: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we’ll come back to you with a fixed figure.

What else we do in Aberlour
Should I try a DIY kit first?
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.
About Aberlour
Aberlour is about 12 miles south of Elgin, in Moray. We visit clients in Aberlour and nearby villages, so you don’t need to take anything anywhere. Aberlour is one of 58 towns and villages in Moray we cover.
We work across the AB38 postcode area and the streets around it. Whether you live on Mary Avenue, High Street and Hill Avenue or anywhere nearby, we can come to you. Neighbouring places we cover include Charlestown of Aberlour (1 mile south-west), Craigellachie (2 miles north-east), Rothes (4 miles north), Dufftown (4 miles south-east) and Drummuir (7 miles east). Larger places within reach include Elgin (12 miles north), Keith (11 miles north-east), Ashgrove (12 miles north), Fochabers (11 miles north-east) and Lhanbryde (11 miles north). Remote and island addresses take a little more planning, so it’s best to call first.
Landmarks near Aberlour
Locally, our jobs take us to homes close to St Margaret's Episcopal Church and Burial Ground, The Mash Tun pub and The Alice Littler Park, among other places. A little further out are Ladycroft Agricultural Museum (1.6 miles north-west) and Fleming Cottage Hospital (under half a mile south-west). Open spaces near Aberlour include Ben Aigan.
What your bath is made of matters
Cast iron
A cast iron bath is heavy enough that most people never want to move it. The enamel is the part that wears or chips, and that is the part we put right.
Pressed steel
Pressed steel is thinner and lighter, with an enamel finish like cast iron. Exposed steel rusts fast, especially around the waste, so early repairs matter.
Should you replace it?
A repair makes sense whenever the damage is localised. It’s a fraction of the cost of a new bath and fitting, it’s done in one visit, and the bathroom stays exactly as it is. Prices start from £95. The price reflects the work involved, not where you live. You’ll see the full price before you book.
Why book with us
- Fixed prices from your pictures
- A year’s guarantee on all work

For landlords and businesses

We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Just send photos, the address and how to get access and we will arrange it.
Aberlour questions
Can you quote from photos?
Typically, yes. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed price.
Is a bath repair permanent?
Yes, if it’s prepared properly and the bath is sound. It’s covered by our one-year guarantee.
Can you redo an old repair?
Regularly. We strip it out, deal with any rust and repair it again.
Is there any odour?
It depends on the job, but frequently a little. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum, and it soon fades.
Do you work in Aberlour?
Yes, we do. Repair technicians travel to Aberlour from across the region, with no extra charge for travel.
Is there a call-out fee?
Travel is included in the price, with the same prices everywhere we work.
Will the price change on the day?
If we find something the photos didn’t show, we explain it first. You decide whether to go ahead.
Is a cracked acrylic bath repairable?
In most cases. The back of the crack is strengthened before the front is filled and refinished, so access behind the panel is important.
What we’re called out for in Aberlour
Acrylic baths that crack nearly always have a support problem. Legs that are not adjusted, a missing cradle or a soft floor let the base flex until it cracks.
The most common problems we are called about are:
- Hairline or through cracks in acrylic
- A kit repair that didn’t last
- Scuffs and scratches in the surface
- Snagging damage from a refit
Before booking anyone
- How changes to the job are handled
- How long the guarantee is and what it covers
- When it can be used again
- Whether a trained technician does the job
How the visit works
Arrival times are agreed in advance. On site, it takes a few hours. The room is left tidy and you will know when it can be used.
- First, we check the damage against your photos and agree the plan.
- Any rust and loose material comes out, and the area is degreased.
- 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.
Getting ready for the visit
- Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
- Let us know which floor the room is on
- Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
Ask for a price
Most clients in Aberlour get their price from pictures. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we’ll send back a fixed quote and some dates.
