Bath repair in Auldhouse without replacing anything

Repairing baths is what we do most. A chip by the taps, a crack in the base and a rust spot by the plughole are all fixed without removing the bath, normally in one visit. If you’re dealing with a chipped rim or side and snagging damage from a refit, we can generally put it right, on roll-top & freestanding, whirlpool & spa baths and cast iron enamel alike.

You’re covered after we leave: our one-year guarantee applies to every job, and we will explain exactly what it covers when we quote.

Aftercare tips

It’s all simple stuff, just a few sensible habits:

  • Protect the bath with a towel when doing jobs nearby
  • Clean with warm water and a mild detergent
  • Give the bath a quick rinse after use
  • Avoid scourers, wire wool and gritty cream cleaners

Leave the repair to cure for as long as we say before using the bath. After that, gentle cleaning keeps it looking good.

If water is getting through a crack, stop using the bath until it’s repaired. Leaks under a bath can damage floors and ceilings.

Repairs by material

Composite and resin

Stone resin and composite baths are heavy and solid. Chips and scratches are filled and matched, just like other baths.

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 the part we put right.

Landlord and trade work in Auldhouse

For anyone letting property in or around Auldhouse, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Send photos for each one and we’ll come back with a combined price.

We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Auldhouse as well as homeowners. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it typically costs far less than a refit.

When we’d advise against a repair

Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:

  • Water coming from the waste or taps rather than the bath
  • Acrylic cracks with no access behind them
  • A bath worn all over, where resurfacing makes more sense

If in doubt, send photos and we’ll say what we think.

Materials we work on in Auldhouse

How it works

A typical visit goes like this: we arrive at the agreed slot, sheet and mask the area around the job, do the job and tidy away. Plan for a few hours, depending on the damage from start to finish. Before leaving, we tell you how long to leave it and how to care for it.

  1. First, the area is cleaned and any loose enamel or rust is removed.
  2. The chip or crack is filled, then sanded level with the bath.
  3. The colour is mixed on the spot to match your bath.
  4. Finish coats go on, then the repair is polished to blend in.
  5. We leave it to cure; you can usually use the bath the day after.

Preparing for the visit

  • Let us know about parking or access
  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
  • Let us know if it has been repaired before

What bath repair costs

Prices start from £95. We give every job a fixed price from pictures. These are the things that affect it:

  • What the surface is made of
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • How many items we do on one visit

Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is normally a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. The quote lists exactly what you are paying for.

Quotes from your photos

The better the photos, the more accurate the price. Here’s what helps:

  • Where you are, by postcode
  • A wider photo showing the whole bath
  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before

For most jobs, pictures are all we need to give you a price. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we’ll send back a fixed quote and some dates.

Do you need bath repair in Auldhouse?

Baths take more knocks than people expect: 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.

Send us a photo if you notice any of these:

  • Chips under the taps
  • Snagging damage from a refit
  • A chipped rim or side
  • A failed DIY repair that’s discoloured or lifting

What to look for in a quote

  • How your room will be protected
  • What prep work is covered
  • Whether the colour is mixed to match
  • The length of the guarantee and what it covers

How to compare quotes

Your questions about bath repair in Auldhouse

Can you fix rust around the plughole?

Yes. We take out the rust and any loose enamel, seal and fill the area, then colour-match the finish.

What does bath repair cost?

Repairs from £95. Because every job differs, we price from pictures. You’ll get a fixed figure before booking.

Will the price change on the day?

We’ll show you and explain before doing anything extra. Nothing extra is done without your say-so.

Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?

Generally, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. We will be honest if it’s not worth it.

I tried a repair kit. Can you fix it?

Yes. We remove the old filler and start again. Mention it when you send photos.

Is there any odour?

Expect a mild smell while we are working.

Can you quote from photos?

Nearly always. If pictures do not show enough, we will ask for another angle.

What areas do you cover?

Across the UK, and that includes Auldhouse. Our prices are the same everywhere.

Can I fix it myself?

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is typically the cheaper route.

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.
