Bath repair at your home in Addiewell
A typical bath repair is a few hours’ work, and you can typically bathe again the next day. You will not need a plumber or tiler, because nothing is disconnected. Common call-outs are for a hole punched through by something heavy and an old repair that has yellowed or come loose, in whirlpool & spa baths, pressed steel enamel and cast iron enamel.
We stand behind the work with a one-year guarantee, so you are covered after the visit.

Signs you need bath repair in Addiewell
Baths take more knocks than people expect: bottles, shower heads and razors are dropped every day, and taps and wastes are tightened against the surface. Over time, chips and rust spots are almost inevitable.
The most common problems we’re called about are:
- Scratches you can feel with a fingernail
- A hole punched through by something heavy
- A cracked acrylic bath
- Chips along the edge of the bath
What your quote should include
- Aftercare advice
- Whether they match the colour on site
- What happens if they find more damage
- Who will actually do the work
Work for landlords and builders
Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets can’t afford rooms out of action for long, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We will fit around changeovers where we can.
Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which is easier on the people living there.
Aftercare tips
Looking after the surface is easy, and it makes a real difference:
- Ensure an acrylic bath is firm underfoot
- Fix dripping taps early to stop staining and limescale
- Have new chips seen to early
- Store metal items away from the bath
There’s nothing special to do after a repair, beyond gentle cleaning. Skip bleach and gritty creams.
Small chips are quick to repair. Left alone, they stain and can rust, so early repair saves time and money.
Addiewell questions
Can a cracked acrylic bath be fixed?
Frequently, yes, if we can reach the underside to reinforce it. Take off the bath panel and check, or send us a picture.
How soon can you come?
Your quote comes with available dates. If it’s urgent, say so and we’ll do what we can.
When can I have a bath again?
Most baths can be used the day after. We will tell you the exact curing time when we finish.
What does bath repair cost?
Prices start from £95. The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from pictures. You know the full cost before anything is booked.
Do you come to Addiewell?
Yes. We cover the entire UK and travel to Addiewell and the rest of West Lothian. Send us photos for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
Just keep them out of the work area. We’ll let you know when it’s safe to use again.
Do you do work for letting agents?
Yes. We carry out repairs for householders, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses across West Lothian.
Do I need to be at home?
Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time we agree with you.
What we do, step by step
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 typically takes a few hours. We tidy up before we leave and tell you when it’s ready to use.
- Dust sheets and masking go down around the bath.
- The damaged area is cleaned, keyed and degreased, and any rust is treated.
- We fill it, let it set, then sand it flush.
- Colour and gloss are matched to the surrounding surface.
- We tidy up and tell you when the bath can be used, generally the next day.
Preparing for the visit
- Point us to the nearest place to park
- Ensure the room can be ventilated
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive

DIY kit or professional repair?
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is typically the cheaper route.

What bath repair costs
Prices start from £95. We price every job individually. The main factors are:
- Whether we combine several jobs
- The type of damage
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- The colour and finish to match
We charge the same wherever you are, so there is no premium for Addiewell. The job itself decides the price: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.
Send photos for a quote
Two or three clear pictures are generally enough. It helps if you send:
- A picture taken from further back
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- What it’s made of, if you know
Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: photograph the damage, then the entire bath, add your postcode and send them over. You’ll get a fixed price, not an estimate.
Why repair rather than replace?
For damage in one or two places, a repair is the obvious choice. 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. Our bath repair starts from £95. 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.
Why us?
- Repair technicians who travel to you, UK-wide
- Rooms protected and left tidy
- A fixed quote before booking
- Same prices wherever you are
