Can I fix it myself?
For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, it’s worth having it done properly.
A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it will not stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.

Nearly always. If pictures don’t show enough, we will ask for another angle.

Generally within a day, depending on the repair.

What we do, step by step
Once we’re through the door, the aim is to do the job without disturbing the rest of your home. Surfaces nearby are masked off, the work takes a few hours, depending on the damage, depending on what we find, and we finish with a tidy-up and a look at the finished work together.
- First, we check the damage against your pictures and agree the plan.
- Loose enamel, rust and dirt are removed so the repair can bond.
- We build up the filler in layers, shaping it to 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
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
- Open a window if you can
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day

Advice
Landlord and trade work in Ballinluig
Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets need rooms back in use quickly, so we keep visits short and tidy. We can work around your bookings.
Rental properties take more wear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.

Do you need bath repair in Ballinluig?
Rust generally starts where water sits, around the waste, under the taps or in an old chip. Water on bare metal causes rust that creeps under the surrounding enamel.
It’s worth getting a quote if you see:
- A chip where the taps sit
- Chips caused by builders
- Rust spots around the plughole
- Chips along the edge of the bath
Questions to ask before you book
- What happens if the damage is worse than the photos show
- The length of the guarantee and what it covers
- Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?
- Aftercare advice
Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £95. Every quote is fixed and free. What we take into account:
- The colour and finish to match
- The size and number of damaged areas
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- The type of damage
We don’t add extras on the day. What we quote from your photos is what you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.
Getting a price from photos
Two or three clear pictures are typically enough. It helps if you send:
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- What it’s made of, if you know
There is no need for us to visit first. Nearly every job can be priced from pictures: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we’ll come back to you with a fixed figure.
When we would advise against a repair
To be straight with you, some problems need a different fix:
- A steel bath rusted through
- A bath that flexes because its feet or cradle have failed (that needs fixing first)
- Leaks from the waste or overflow fittings (a plumber’s job)
If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think before booking.
Materials we work on in Ballinluig
- Whirlpool & spa baths
- Pressed steel enamel
- Acrylic
- Roll-top & freestanding
- Cast iron enamel
Repairs by material
Cast iron
A cast iron bath is heavy enough that most people never want to move it. The enamel is the part that wears or chips, and that is what we repair.
Pressed steel
Pressed steel is thinner and lighter, with an enamel finish like cast iron. Chips rust quickly on steel, especially around the waste, so repair chips early.
How to care for the repair
Looking after the surface is easy:
- Put a towel in the bath if you are working above it
- A dripping tap stains enamel, so fix it early
- Give the bath a quick rinse after use
- Don’t leave razors or cans standing in the bath
Don’t leave razors, cans or hair grips in the bath, because they can mark the enamel. And fix dripping taps promptly.
Tape over a fresh chip or crack until it’s repaired, to keep water out. Remove it before the repair.
