Bath repair at your home in Edinburgh

We see every kind of bath damage: dropped-bottle chips, plughole rust, acrylic cracks and impact holes. Each is repaired in place. Common call-outs are for snagging damage from a refit and a failed DIY repair that’s discoloured or lifting, in pressed steel enamel, roll-top & freestanding and cast iron enamel.

We begin by going over the job with you, so there are no surprises. Then the area is sheeted and masked and we start. Allow a few hours, depending on the damage, and we will tell you if anything changes.

Dust sheets and masking go down around the bath.
We clean, key and degrease the damage.
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 following day.

Cost

Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Set against the cost of replacement, repairing generally costs far less, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

Landlord and trade work in Edinburgh

Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs in Edinburgh and across the UK. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which matters when someone is living in the home.

Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets cannot afford rooms out of action for long, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We can work around your bookings.

Different materials, different repairs

Composite and resin

Composite baths are dense and solid, and often freestanding. Chips and scratches are filled and matched, in much the same way.

Acrylic

Acrylic is light and warm to the touch, but it relies on good support. Cracks are strengthened from behind before the front is finished.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it will not stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully and work on a clean, dry surface, and give it the full curing time. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.

Common problems we fix in Edinburgh

Heavy toiletries are the biggest single cause of chips, closely followed by shower heads. Taps and wastes cause problems too: water sits around them, and any chip there soon rusts.

Typical reasons for a call-out include:

Damage beneath the taps
A cracked acrylic bath
Rust by the waste and overflow
A failed DIY repair that’s discoloured or lifting

What affects the price in Edinburgh

Prices start from £95. There’s no area surcharge for Edinburgh. The price reflects:

How hard the colour is to match
Whether we combine several jobs
How many areas need work
Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off

Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. Damage, material and access decide it, and combining items on one visit brings it down.

How to get a fixed price

Before you send photos, these tips help us give you a firm price:

Natural light rather than flash
A clear, close picture of the problem area
A wider photo showing the whole bath
Details of any past repairs

To get a price, send two or three photos using our quote form or ring us. We’ll say right away whether it can be repaired.

Edinburgh questions

Do I need to be at home?

Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. After that, you can carry on with your day.

Is there a call-out fee?

No. Our quotes include travel, and we charge the same wherever you are.

What if the damage is worse than the pictures show?

Your quote covers the damage in the photos. Anything extra is discussed before we begin.

Can you quote from pictures?

Yes, almost always. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed price.

When can I have a bath again?

Typically within a day, though it depends on what we’ve done.

Can you repair a failed DIY repair?

Yes, we do this frequently. The old material comes out, any rust is treated, then we repair it properly.

Do you hold any accreditations?

We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.
