How we price bath repair
Prices start from £95. We charge the same across the UK, including Auchinleck. What changes the price is:
- Access to the area
- What kind of damage it is
- The size and number of damaged areas
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
Instead of hourly rates, 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 quote
Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what we need:
- One picture of the whole bath
- The material, if you know it
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
Call 0345 017 0787 or use the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the whole bath, we can give you a fixed price the same day in most cases.
Bath repair in Auchinleck, done in place
Most bath damage, from chips and cracks to rust spots and holes, is repaired in place. There’s no plumbing to disconnect, the tiles aren’t touched, and the finish is matched to the rest of the bath. Common call-outs are for a kit repair that didn’t last and impact holes in acrylic, on whirlpool & spa baths, acrylic and roll-top & freestanding.
Your repair is guaranteed for a year, as with every job we do.

What else we do in Auchinleck
Keeping it looking good
It’s all simple stuff:
- Rinse the bath after use, especially in hard water areas
- A dripping tap stains enamel, so fix it early
- Do not leave a fresh chip for long
- Cover the bath during DIY or decorating
In the first few days, avoid putting weight or bottles on the repair. After that, normal gentle cleaning is fine without abrasive products.
A chip on a metal bath shouldn’t be left. Water gets to the metal and rust starts, turning a quick repair into a bigger one.
Common questions in Auchinleck
Can a cracked acrylic bath be fixed?
Frequently, yes, if we can reach the underside to reinforce it. Check under the bath panel, or send us a picture.
What happens once I’ve sent pictures?
You get a fixed price and available dates. If we need another angle, we’ll ask.
Do I have to be there?
Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time that suits you.
Can landlords book you?
Yes. We carry out repairs for householders, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses.
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
Yes, though it’s best to check with your landlord first. Many landlords are happy for a repair to be arranged.
Can you price it without visiting?
Nearly always. If photos do not show enough, we will ask for another angle.
Can you repair a hole in a bath?
Frequently, if there is access underneath. We back the hole, fill it and refinish the surface.
Can you match an avocado or pink bath?
Yes. We mix the colour on the day to match, including pastel and older colours.
Why repair rather than replace?
A new bath costs more than the bath itself: removal and disposal, plumbing, a new panel, tiling and decorating. A repair is one job, done in one visit. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. No two jobs are quite the same, so we price each one individually. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all play a part, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

Work for landlords and builders
Hospitality businesses cannot afford rooms out of action for long, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We will fit around changeovers where we can.
Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, fixing chips and scratches before handover. We are CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.
When we would advise against a repair
We’d rather lose a job than do one that won’t last, so these are the limits:
- Leaks from the waste or overflow fittings (a plumber’s job)
- Acrylic cracks with no access behind them
- A whole bath that’s dull or worn, where a full re-enamel is the better fix
Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly before booking.
Surfaces we repair
- Pressed steel enamel
- Acrylic
- Roll-top & freestanding
- Cast iron enamel
- Whirlpool & spa baths
The process
You don’t need to empty the room. We bring everything we need with us, lay protective sheets and start once you are happy with the plan. It generally takes two to three hours for most chips, and you can get on with other things while we are there.
- We protect the bath and the floor around it.
- The damaged area is cleaned, keyed and degreased.
- We fill it, let it set, then sand it flush.
- Colour and gloss are matched to the surrounding surface.
- We clear up and give you the curing time, normally until the following day.
How to prepare
- Ensure the area is dry
- Point us to the nearest place to park
- Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing

You don’t need a survey visit. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote.
Advice
DIY kit or professional repair?
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is normally cheaper.
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.

What your bath is made of matters
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.
Acrylic
Acrylic baths are moulded sheet reinforced underneath. There is no rust, but cracks, holes and scratches happen, and a crack only stays repaired if it’s supported underneath.
