Should I try a DIY kit first?
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is usually cheaper.
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, 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 frequently lifts.
Bath repair in Barrachnie, done in place
Whatever has happened to the bath, we aim for the same result: a repair that is smooth, sound and hard to spot. Proper preparation, careful filling and shaping, then colour and gloss matching so it’s level with the surrounding surface. Common call-outs are for hairline or through cracks in acrylic and a chipped rim or side, on cast iron enamel, roll-top & freestanding and whirlpool & spa baths.
The work is covered for a year after we finish. Just call us if there’s a problem and we’ll come back.

Looking after it afterwards
So the finish stays in good condition for years:
- Don’t leave a fresh chip for long
- Stick to mild cleaners and a soft cloth
- Fix dripping taps early to stop staining and limescale
- If an acrylic bath flexes, have its feet adjusted
Do not leave razors, cans or hair grips in the bath, because they can mark the enamel. A dripping tap should be fixed early, too.
Tape over a fresh chip or crack until it’s repaired, to keep water out. Take it off before we arrive.
What we’re called out for in Barrachnie
Glass and heavy bottles cause more chips than anything else, closely followed by shower heads. Taps and wastes cause problems too: water collects there, so chips nearby rust quickly.
Most people contact us when they notice something like this:
- Chips under the taps
- Scuffs and scratches in the surface
- Chips on the rim or sides
- A kit repair that didn’t last
Questions to ask before you book
- How soon you can use it again
- What protection goes down before work starts
- How the colour is matched
- What aftercare is recommended

What information do you need?
Send photos through the quote form or call 0345 017 0787.
I tried a repair kit. Can you fix it?
Regularly. We strip it out, deal with any rust and repair it again.
Is it messy?
Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and tidy up before we leave.
Do I have to be there?
Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. After that, you can carry on with your day.
Is the work guaranteed?
All our work carries our one-year guarantee. We’ll explain what it covers when we quote.
Is a bath repair durable?
Yes, if it’s prepared properly and the bath is sound. It’s covered by our one-year guarantee.
What does bath repair cost?
Repairs from £95. We give a fixed quote from your photos. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo and your postcode.
Are you a vetted contractor?
We are accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.
What we do, step by step
On the day, the technician arrives at the agreed time, protects the room with dust sheets and masking and gets started. Expect it to take two to three hours for most chips. We tidy up before we leave and let you know when you can use it again.
- We start by looking at the damage and confirming the plan with you.
- Loose enamel, rust and dirt are removed so the repair can bond.
- We build up the filler in layers, shaping it to the bath.
- We tint the finish by hand to match the bath.
- The repair is polished to the same gloss as the bath and left to cure.
Before we arrive
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
- Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
Getting a price
Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: photograph the damage, then the entire bath, include your postcode and send them to us. What comes back is a fixed quote, not a guess.
Related advice
Different materials, different repairs
Composite and resin
Stone resin and composite baths are heavy and solid, and frequently freestanding. Chips and scratches can be filled and colour-matched, just like other baths.
Pressed steel
Pressed steel is thinner and lighter, with an enamel finish like cast iron. Exposed steel rusts fast, particularly by the plughole, so repair chips early.
Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £95. Each job gets its own fixed price. These are the things that affect it:
- The type of damage
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- Whether we combine several jobs
- How easy the damage is to reach
Instead of hourly rates, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and combining items on one visit brings it down.
Quotes from your photos
A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. It helps if you send:
- A wider photo showing the whole bath
- The material, if you know it
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- Natural light rather than flash
You do not need a survey visit. Nearly every job can be priced from photos: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote.

Why repair rather than replace?
Replacing a bath rarely stops at the bath: tiles along the rim typically crack when it comes out, the panel may not fit the new one, and the plumbing has to be disconnected and refitted. A repair skips all of it. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. We charge the same wherever you are, with no extra for Barrachnie. What changes the price is the job itself: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.
