Bath repair in Auchmithie, done in place

Whatever has happened to the bath, we aim for the same result: a smooth, solid repair that blends in. We prepare the area properly, fill and shape it, then match the colour and gloss so it sits flush with the rest of the bath. We’re often asked to fix a chipped rim or side and deep scratches in acrylic, on whirlpool & spa baths, roll-top & freestanding and cast iron enamel.

We guarantee the work for a year. If there’s a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it.

Repair or replace in Auchmithie?

For damage in one or two places, a repair is the obvious choice. It costs far less than a new bath plus fitting, it’s done in one visit, and the bathroom stays exactly as it is. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. A repair is priced on what needs doing, not where you live. The full price is agreed before you book, with nothing added on the day.

Why book with us

  • Dust sheets down, tidy finish
  • Colour-matched on site
  • Fixed prices from your pictures
  • Honest advice, even when it means no job

Take a look at our pricing or resurfacing vs replacement cost guide.

Work for landlords and builders

Letting agents often send us pictures straight from the inventory. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.

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.

What we are called out for in Auchmithie

A cracked acrylic bath normally wasn’t supported properly. Legs that are not adjusted, a missing cradle or a soft floor let the base flex.

Look out for these signs:

  • Chips along the edge of the bath
  • A kit repair that didn’t last
  • Chips caused by builders
  • Rusty patches near the plughole

Questions to ask before you book

  • When it can be used again
  • Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?
  • Whether a trained technician does the job
  • Aftercare advice

Our hiring checklist

Aftercare tips

Most damage we see is avoidable. These habits help:

  • Stick to mild cleaners and a soft cloth
  • Put a towel in the bath if you are working above it
  • Get any new chip repaired before it rusts
  • A dripping tap stains enamel, so fix it early

Treat the repaired area like the rest of the bath: a soft cloth and washing-up liquid is all it needs. Avoid scourers and gritty cream cleaners.

Small chips are quick to repair. Leave them and they collect dirt, stain and, on metal baths, rust, so it’s worth getting them done early.

Different materials, different repairs

Composite and resin

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

Acrylic

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

How it works

There is not much you need to do on the day. Show us the job, point us to the room, and we’ll take it from there. The job generally runs to a few hours, tidy-up included.

  1. We start by looking at the damage and confirming the plan with you.
  2. Loose enamel, rust and dirt are removed so the repair can bond.
  3. The damage is filled in layers and shaped to the curve of the bath.
  4. The colour is tinted by hand until it matches.
  5. The repair is polished to the same gloss as the bath and left to cure.

Before we arrive

  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
  • Let us know about parking or access
  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day

Can I fix it myself?

It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and then the old filler has to be removed first.

It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is normally the cheaper route.

Auchmithie questions

Can you repair something that is been repaired before?

In most cases. The old repair comes out first, so mention it when you send photos.

Does someone need to be in?

Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time that suits you.

Do you repair coloured baths?

Yes, coloured baths are no problem. We tint the finish to your bath on site.

Do you cover the whole of Angus?

The entire UK, including all of Angus. Just include your postcode and we will confirm dates.

Is there a guarantee?

Every repair comes with our one-year guarantee. We’ll explain what it covers when we quote.

Can a cracked acrylic bath be fixed?

In most cases. We reinforce the crack from behind, then fill and refinish the front, so access behind the panel is important.

Is a bath repair permanent?

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

What do you need from me?

A close-up, a wider photo and your postcode. After that, we just agree a date.

How we price bath repair

Prices start from £95. We charge the same across the UK, including Auchmithie. The price reflects:

  • The material
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • How many areas need work
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first

We charge the same wherever you are, so there’s no premium for Auchmithie. What changes the price is the job itself: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

How to get a fixed price

Two or three clear photos are usually enough. Try to include:

  • Natural light rather than flash
  • Something in shot to show the size
  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit

Most clients in Auchmithie get their price from photos. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we will reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.
