Questions from Bàgh a'Chaisteil
Is there a guarantee?
Yes, for a year. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.
What happens after I send photos?
We come back with a fixed price, plus dates. There is no obligation to book.
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.
What do you need from me?
Use the quote form or ring 0345 017 0787, and we’ll take it from there.
How long does the repair take to cure?
Normally the day after. We will tell you the exact curing time when we finish.
Do you repair coloured baths?
Yes. The colour is mixed on site to suit your bath, including older coloured suites.
Can you price it without visiting?
Nearly always. If pictures don’t show enough, we will ask for another angle.
Can you do more than one item on the same visit?
Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Send photos of everything you’d like done.
Repair or replace: which is better?
A repair makes sense whenever the damage is localised. It’s a fraction of the cost of a new bath and fitting, it takes one visit, and the bathroom stays exactly as it is. Prices start from £95. A repair is priced on what needs doing, not your postcode. You will see the full price before you book, with nothing added on the day.

How the visit works
It’s a tidy, low-fuss visit. We confirm the time with you beforehand, protect the area, then carry out the work, which typically takes a morning or an afternoon. If we find something your photos didn’t show, we’ll explain it before carrying on.
- First, we check the damage against your pictures and agree the plan.
- Loose enamel, rust and dirt are removed so the repair can bond.
- The damage is filled in layers and shaped to the curve of the bath.
- The colour is tinted by hand until it matches.
- The repair is polished to the same gloss as the bath and left to cure.
Before we arrive
- Point us to the nearest place to park
- Let the surface dry out before the visit
- Ensure the room can be ventilated

You do not need a survey visit. Nearly every job can be priced from pictures: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price.

Looking after it afterwards
So the finish stays in good condition:
- Cover the bath during DIY or decorating
- Avoid scourers, wire wool and gritty cream cleaners
- A dripping tap stains enamel, so fix it early
- Rinse the bath after use, especially in hard water areas
There is nothing special to do after a repair. Avoid bleach-based and gritty cleaners and give it a rinse after each bath.
Rust spreads under enamel faster than most people expect. A chip the size of a fingernail can become a much larger patch if it’s left for months, so it pays to deal with it early.
When we would advise against a repair
A repair is not always the answer, and we would rather say so up front. We can’t fix:
- Rust that has eaten right through a steel bath
- Cracks in acrylic we can’t reach from underneath
- A bath that flexes because its feet or cradle have failed (that needs fixing first)
Not sure? Send pictures and we will give you a straight answer.
Materials we repair
- Acrylic
- Roll-top & freestanding
- Pressed steel enamel
- Whirlpool & spa baths
- Cast iron enamel

What we are called out for in Bàgh a'Chaisteil
A bath gets knocked about more than you’d think: everyday items get dropped into it all the time, and taps and wastes are tightened against the surface. Sooner or later, most baths pick up a chip.
Get in touch if you’ve noticed any of these:
- Chips under the taps
- A kit repair that didn’t last
- Rust spots around the plughole
- Chips along the edge of the bath

DIY kit or professional repair?
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.
Materials and what they mean for the repair
Acrylic
Acrylic baths are moulded sheet reinforced underneath. They do not rust, but they can crack, scratch or be holed, and a crack only stays repaired if it’s supported underneath.
Cast iron
Cast iron is heavy and rigid, finished with fired enamel. Chips can rust if left, but the body of the bath lasts a very long time, so it’s always worth repairing.
