Bath repair across Aberdeenshire: what to expect

Bath repair is our most common job. A chip by the taps, a crack in the base and a rust spot by the plughole are all fixed without removing the bath, normally in one visit. We are frequently asked to fix a cracked acrylic bath and holes from dropped items, in acrylic, roll-top & freestanding and cast iron enamel.

Visits start with a quick look at the job together, so there are no surprises. Next, we cover and mask everything nearby and we start. Allow a few hours.

First, we check the damage against your photos and agree the plan.
Loose enamel, rust and dirt are removed so the repair can bond.
The damage is filled in layers and shaped to the curve of the bath.
We tint the finish by hand to match the bath.
The repair is polished to the same gloss as the bath and left to cure.

Prices in Aberdeenshire

Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is normally a fraction of the price, because there is no removal, plumbing or making good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

Should you replace it?

Cast iron baths especially are worth keeping: they’re very heavy to remove, especially upstairs, and replacing like for like is not cheap. Repairing it leaves it where it is.

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Pressed steel

Under the enamel of a steel bath is thin metal. Once a chip exposes it, rust follows quickly, so we treat and seal the metal before filling.

Cast iron

Cast iron is heavy and rigid, finished with fired enamel. Chips can rust if left, but the body of the bath lasts a very long time, so it’s always worth repairing.

Can I fix it myself?

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. 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.

For a hairline mark somewhere you will never see, a kit may be enough. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, a professional repair is worth it.

For landlords and businesses

If you manage property in Aberdeenshire, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Just send pictures for each address and we’ll come back with a combined price.

Rental properties take more wear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.

How we price bath repair

Repairs from £95. We charge the same across the UK, including Aberdeenshire. The price reflects:

Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
How many areas need work
Unusual colours or finishes
The material and finish

It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

Quotes from your photos

The better the pictures, the more accurate the price. Here’s what we find most useful:

Any earlier repairs or coatings
A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
The material, if you know it
One picture of the whole bath

Pricing is simple: take a close-up of the damage and a picture from further back, send them over with your postcode, and you’ll get a fixed quote back. There is no charge for the quote and you’re under no obligation.

Questions from Aberdeenshire

Something went through my bath. Can it be fixed?

In most cases. Send us a picture of the hole and one from under the bath if you can.

What about rust by the waste?

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

Can I get a quote without a visit?

Generally, yes. Clear photos let us give you a fixed quote without visiting.

Do you work for landlords and businesses?

Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as homeowners.

Can I add another job to the visit?

Of course, and it usually saves money. Just add the extra items to your photos and we will quote them together.

How invisible is a bath repair?

On a bath in good condition, a colour matched repair is very hard to spot. On older, dull enamel the repair can look glossier than the area around it.

Will the repair last?

Yes, if it’s prepared properly and the bath is sound. It’s covered by our one-year guarantee.
