Bath repair at your home in Ardpeaton
Whether your bath is steel, cast iron or acrylic, we can repair it. The method changes with the material: rust is treated on metal baths, while cracks in acrylic are reinforced from underneath. We work on pressed steel enamel, acrylic and cast iron enamel, and common reasons people contact us are chips on the rim or sides and chips under the taps.
All of our repairs are guaranteed for twelve months in Ardpeaton and everywhere else. If something goes wrong with the work, we come back.

FAQs for Ardpeaton
Do I have to be there?
Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time that suits you.
What about rust by the waste?
Yes, very often. We take it back to sound metal, seal it, fill it and match the colour.
Do you hold any accreditations?
Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.
Is a bath repair durable?
A properly prepared repair should last a long time, and ours come with a one-year guarantee. Gentle cleaning helps it last.
How much does bath repair cost in Ardpeaton?
Repairs from £95. We give a fixed price based on photos of the damage. Send a close-up and a picture of the entire item with your G84 postcode.
It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?
In most cases. The old repair comes out first.
Is my repair covered?
All our work carries a one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.
Do you work in Ardpeaton?
We do. We send a technician to Ardpeaton for every job, and the price is the same as everywhere else.
What your bath is made of matters
Pressed steel
Steel baths and trays have a thin metal body under the enamel. Exposed steel rusts quickly, so the metal is treated and sealed before the repair.
Acrylic
Acrylic baths are moulded sheet reinforced underneath. They don’t rust, but they can crack, scratch or be holed, and cracks need support from behind to stay fixed.
Keeping it looking good
A little care keeps the finish looking good. We recommend:
- Get any new chip repaired before it rusts
- Avoid scourers, wire wool and gritty cream cleaners
- Rinse the bath after use, especially in hard water areas
- Fix dripping taps early to stop staining and limescale
For the first few days, keep heavy bottles off the repaired spot. After that, normal gentle cleaning is fine.
A small chip is a quick job. Left alone, they stain and can rust, so it’s worth getting them done early.
Prices and what affects them
Repairs from £95. A fixed quote means you know the cost before you book. We take into account:
- How many areas need work
- What kind of damage it is
- How many items we do on one visit
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. Damage, material and access decide it.
How to get a fixed price
You can usually get a fixed price without us visiting. To help us price it:
- Any details about the material
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- One sharp close-up of the damage
There’s no need for us to visit first. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we’ll come back to you with a fixed figure.
Can I fix it myself?
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair will not last.

How it works
When we visit, the technician arrives at the agreed time, protects the room with dust sheets and masking and gets started. Expect it to take a morning or an afternoon. We tidy up before we leave and let you know when you can use it again.
- We start by looking at the damage and confirming the plan with you.
- Any rust and loose material comes out, and the area is degreased.
- We build up the filler in layers, shaping it to the bath.
- The colour is tinted by hand until it matches.
- Finally, it’s polished to match the shine and left to cure.
Before we arrive
- Make sure the area is dry
- Clear the area around the damage
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access

Should you replace it?
Swapping a damaged bath for a new one generally means a plumber, removing the old bath, making good the tiles and panel and disposing of the old one. Repairing it deals only with the damage in one visit. Prices start from £95. There are no surprise extras on the day. What we quote from your photos is what you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.
