The process
On the day itself, there is little for you to do. Let us in and show us the room, and we will get on with it. Most visits take a few hours, tidy-up included.
- We start by cleaning the damage and taking out loose enamel and rust.
- We fill the damage and sand it flush with the surrounding surface.
- The colour is mixed on the spot to match your bath.
- We apply the finish coats and polish the repair so it blends in.
- Once it has cured, usually by the following day, the bath is ready to use.
Preparing for the visit
- Have a window or extractor fan available
- Tell us about parking, stairs or access
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work

Advice
How we handle bath repair in Barmulloch
You do not need a new bath because of a chip. Our repair technicians fill, shape and refinish the damage, mixing the colour on the day. We’re often asked to fix chips along the edge of the bath and rust by the waste and overflow, on cast iron enamel, whirlpool & spa baths and roll-top & freestanding.
Every job is backed for twelve months, and the guarantee is the same wherever you live. If something goes wrong with the work, we come back.

What your bath is made of matters
Pressed steel
Steel baths and trays have a thin metal body under the enamel. Once a chip exposes it, rust follows quickly, so we treat and seal the metal before filling.
Composite and resin
Composite baths are dense and solid, and frequently freestanding. Chips and scratches are filled and matched, just like other baths.
When a repair isn’t the answer
In fairness, there are a few things a repair won’t fix:
- Metal that has corroded all the way through
- Water coming from the waste or taps rather than the bath
- Cracks in parts of an acrylic bath we can’t get to from below
If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think before booking.

FAQs for Barmulloch
Is a bath repair permanent?
Yes, if it’s prepared properly and the bath is sound. It’s covered by our one-year guarantee.
Do the materials smell?
A little, depending on the job. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum, and it soon fades.
Do you cover the entire of Glasgow?
We cover the whole UK, including Barmulloch and the rest of Glasgow. Send your postcode with your pictures and we’ll confirm dates.
What do you need from me?
Some photos, your postcode and how to reach you. On the day, access to the room.
Do you work for landlords and businesses?
Yes. We carry out repairs for householders, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses across Glasgow.
Is a repair better than a new one?
Generally, when the rest is in good condition. A repair avoids removal and making good. We’ll tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.
Can you repair something that is been repaired before?
Yes, we frequently do. Removing the old work can add time, and that is in the quote.
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?
Replacing a fitted bath normally involves a plumber, removing the old bath, making good the tiles and panel and getting rid of the old bath. Repairing it deals only with the damage in a single visit. Prices start from £95. Rather than charging by the hour, we price the entire job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and doing several items at once reduces it.

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it will not stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.
