When to call us in Balnagask
A bath gets knocked about more than you’d think: 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.
Most people contact us when they notice one of these:
- Scratches you can feel with a fingernail
- Damage done while the bathroom was being fitted
- Rusty patches near the plughole
- A chipped rim or side

About our bath repair in Balnagask
Small damage on a bath is worth repairing early. On steel and cast iron, exposed metal starts to rust, and on acrylic, a crack keeps spreading while the bath flexes. A repair stops both. We regularly repair acrylic, cast iron enamel and whirlpool & spa baths, and common reasons people get in touch are rust by the waste and overflow and chips on the rim or sides.
A one-year guarantee comes as standard.

FAQs for Balnagask
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
In most cases, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. We’ll be honest if it’s not worth it.
Is a bath repair permanent?
Yes, if it’s prepared properly and the bath is sound. It’s covered by our one-year guarantee.
Can pets and children be at home?
Keep pets and children away from the work area on the day, mainly so nothing gets touched before it has cured.
What happens after I send pictures?
You will get a fixed quote back. There is no obligation to book.
Is there a call-out fee?
There is no separate call-out charge. The fixed quote covers the visit and the work.
Do the materials smell?
There can be some smell while we work, which is why we ventilate. It clears as the materials cure.
Something went through my bath. Can it be fixed?
In most cases. Send us a picture of the hole and one from under the bath if you can.
Can I get a quote without a visit?
Yes, almost always. Clear photos let us give you a fixed quote without visiting.

How to care for the repair
Once the work has cured, treat it gently:
- Protect the bath with a towel when doing jobs nearby
- A dripping tap stains enamel, so fix it early
- Don’t leave razors or cans standing in the bath
- Ensure an acrylic bath is firm underfoot
Give the repair the full curing time we recommend before running a bath. From then on, mild cleaning is all it needs.
If water is getting through a crack, stop using the bath. Water under the bath can damage the floor and the ceiling below.

- The material and finish
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- The colour and finish to match

Repair or replace: which is better?
People often assume a cracked or chipped bath has to come out. Usually it does not: a proper repair gives it years more use, and costs far less than the disruption of a replacement. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is normally a fraction of the price, because there is no removal, plumbing or making good.

Different materials, different repairs
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 early repairs matter.
Acrylic
Acrylic is light and warm to the touch, but it relies on good support. Cracks are strengthened from behind before the front is finished.
