Repairing versus replacing in Auchenhowie
A new bath brings a chain of other jobs: tiles along the rim normally crack when it comes out, a new panel is frequently needed, and a plumber has to disconnect and reconnect everything. A repair skips all of it. Prices start from £95. A repair is priced on what needs doing, not your postcode. The full price is agreed before you book.
Why us?
- Nothing taken out or refitted
- No extra charge for your area
- One-year guarantee on every repair
- Dust sheets down, tidy finish

Should I try a DIY kit first?
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it won’t stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is usually the cheaper route.
How the visit works
Nothing needs to be moved out of the room beforehand. We bring everything we need with us, put protection down and start once you are happy with the plan. Most jobs take a few hours, depending on the damage, and you are welcome to carry on with your day while we work.
- We protect the bath and the floor around it.
- The damaged area is cleaned, keyed and degreased.
- Filler goes in and is sanded flush once it has set.
- Colour and gloss are matched to the surrounding surface.
- We tidy up and tell you when the bath can be used, generally the day after.
Before we arrive
- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
- Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings

Advice
When to call us in Auchenhowie
Heavy toiletries are the biggest single cause of chips, closely followed by shower heads. Fittings cause damage too: water sits around them, and any chip there soon rusts.
The things clients usually mention when they call are:
- Chips on the rim or sides
- A hole punched through by something heavy
- Deep scratches in acrylic
- Snagging damage from a refit
Comparing quotes
- Whether they match the colour on site
- A fixed price, and whether VAT is included
- What aftercare is recommended
- If travel is included in the price

Different materials, different repairs
Cast iron
Cast iron baths are so heavy that repairing in place makes obvious sense. The enamel is the part that wears or chips, and that’s what we repair.
Composite and resin
Composite baths are dense and solid. Chips and scratches are filled and matched, in much the same way.
Landlords, agents and businesses in Auchenhowie
Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.
Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, putting right damage done during fitting so nothing needs replacing. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.
Common questions in Auchenhowie
Can you fix rust around the plughole?
Yes. We take out the rust and any loose enamel, fill the area, then colour-match the finish.
Do you cover Auchenhowie?
Yes. We cover the whole UK and travel to Auchenhowie. Send us photos for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
Do the materials smell?
There can be some smell while we work, so we ventilate the room. It clears as the materials cure.
Something went through my bath. Can it be fixed?
Generally. Send us a photo of the hole and one from under the bath if you can.
Can you repair something that’s been repaired before?
In most cases. The old repair comes out first.
Can you do more than one item on the same visit?
Yes. Doing several items on one visit typically costs less than separate visits. Send pictures of everything you’d like done.
Is repairing better than replacing?
Generally, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. We will be honest if it’s not worth it.
What happens if you find more damage?
We stop, show you and agree any change before carrying on. You will not be charged for anything you haven’t agreed.
Keeping it looking good
Most damage we see is avoidable. These habits help:
- Clean with warm water and a mild detergent
- Give the bath a quick rinse after use
- Check that an acrylic bath does not move when you stand in it
- Keep abrasive pads and gritty cleaners away from the bath
For the first few days, keep heavy bottles off the repaired spot. After that, clean it as you would the rest of the bath.
Tape over a fresh chip or crack until it’s repaired, so water cannot get in. Remove it before the repair.
Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £95. Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we take into account:
- How many items we do on one visit
- What kind of damage it is
- Unusual colours or finishes
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.
Quotes from your photos
The better the photos, the more accurate the price. Here’s what helps:
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- A photo taken from further back
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- Where you are, by postcode
Email us pictures of the damage and one of the whole item, and tell us you are in Auchenhowie, and we will come back with a fixed quote.
