About bath repair in Dumfries and Galloway

We see every kind of bath damage: chips from dropped bottles, rust round the plughole, cracks in acrylic and holes from falling tools. All of it is repaired where the bath stands. We regularly repair roll-top & freestanding, acrylic and pressed steel enamel, and people most frequently call us about damage beneath the taps and rust spots around the plughole.

Nothing needs to be moved out of the room. Everything we use comes in the van with us, put protection down and get going once we have agreed what we’re doing. It generally takes a few hours, depending on the damage, and you’re welcome to carry on with your day while we work.

First, the area is cleaned and any loose enamel or rust is removed.
Next we fill the damage and sand it smooth and level.
We tint the finish on the day to suit your bath’s shade of white or colour.
We apply the finish coats and polish the repair so it blends in.
We leave it to cure; you can typically use the bath the following day.

What you will pay

Our bath repair starts from £95. Our prices are the same across the UK, so there is no premium for Dumfries and Galloway. What changes the price is the job itself: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

Near you in Dumfries

In Dumfries, that means homes near Myles Bar, Dumfries Academy and Dumfries and the streets around them. There’s a railway station in Dumfries itself: Dumfries station. A little further out are Gracefield Arts Centre (under half a mile north) and Dumfries Castle (1 mile south). Green spaces nearby include Lochaber Loch.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.

A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. 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.

Signs you need bath repair

A bath gets knocked about more than you’d think: bottles, shower heads and razors are dropped every day, and fittings press hard against the enamel. Over time, chips and rust spots are almost inevitable.

Signs it’s time to call us include:

Chips on the rim or sides
Deep scratches in acrylic
Damage beneath the taps
Holes from dropped items

Honest limits

We will not take on work that will not last, so these are the limits:

A bath that moves underfoot, until its support is fixed
Leaking fittings, which need a plumber
Metal that has corroded all the way through

Prices and what affects them

Repairs from £95. You won’t pay by the hour. The price is based on:

Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
Unusual colours or finishes
How many areas need work
How easy the damage is to reach

A repair normally costs much less than people expect, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

Getting a price from photos

You can normally get a fixed quote without us visiting. To make it quick:

What it’s made of, if you know
A photo taken from further back
Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
Natural light rather than flash

We price from pictures so you don’t have to wait in for a survey. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through, and we will come back with a fixed figure.

Looking after it afterwards

A little care keeps the finish looking good. Our advice:

Give the bath a quick rinse after use
Fix dripping taps early to stop staining and limescale
Make sure an acrylic bath is firm underfoot
Don’t leave razors or cans standing in the bath

In the first few days, avoid putting weight or bottles on the repair. After that, clean it as you would the rest of the bath without abrasive products.

Stop using the bath if a crack lets water through. Leaks under a bath can damage floors and ceilings.

FAQs for Dumfries and Galloway

Will the repair last?

A properly prepared repair should last a long time, and it’s guaranteed for a year. Gentle cleaning helps it last.

I rent my home. Can I book you?

Yes. Ask your landlord first, and we can send them the quote if that helps.

Does someone need to be in?

Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time we agree with you.

What areas do you cover?

We cover the whole UK, including Dumfries and Galloway. Send your postcode with your photos and we will offer you dates.

Can you repair something that is been repaired before?

Generally, yes. Let us know what was used before.

Can I get a quote without a visit?

In nearly every case. We only ask to see it in person if the pictures cannot show what we need.

What information do you need?

Photos of the damage, a picture of the whole bath and your postcode. Then we’ll agree a date.
