Beith questions
Can you do more than one item on the same visit?
Yes, and it’s often cheaper. Just add the extra items to your photos and you’ll get one combined price.
Can you repair a crack in an acrylic bath?
Most of the time. We reinforce the crack from behind, then fill and refinish the front, so access behind the panel is important.
Which areas do you work in?
We work UK-wide, so Beith is covered. Our prices are the same everywhere.
Do you hold any accreditations?
We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.
Can you repair a failed DIY repair?
Yes. We remove the old filler and start again. Mention it when you send photos.
How invisible is a bath repair?
On a glossy bath, you’ll struggle to find it. On worn enamel, it can look shinier than the rest.
Will the repair last?
It should, as long as the bath is firm and the area was prepared well. It’s covered by our one-year guarantee.
What do you need from me?
A close-up, a wider photo and your postcode. After that, we just agree a date.
About our bath repair in Beith
We repair just the damaged spot and colour-match it to the bath, which costs far less than replacing a fitted bath and the tiles around it. Most baths can be used again the day after. Whether it’s holes from dropped items and a chipped rim or side, we can normally put it right, on cast iron enamel, roll-top & freestanding and acrylic alike.
We guarantee the work for a year. If something isn’t right in that time, we come back and put it right.

Prices and what affects them
Repairs from £95. You will not pay by the hour. The price depends on:
- The material and finish
- How easy the damage is to reach
- Unusual colours or finishes
- What kind of damage it is
We charge the same wherever you are, with no extra for Beith. The job itself decides the price: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.
How to get a fixed quote
The better the pictures, the more accurate the price. Here’s what we find most useful:
- A photo taken from further back
- The material, if you know it
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
There is no need for us to visit first. Nearly every job can be priced from photos: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote.
Signs you need bath repair in Beith
Rust typically 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.
Signs it’s time to call us include:
- Scratches you can feel with a fingernail
- A cracked acrylic bath
- Rusty patches near the plughole
- Snagging damage from a refit
What your quote should include
- Who will actually do the work
- How to care for the finish
- Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?
- How your room will be protected
Keeping it looking good
A little care keeps the finish looking good. We recommend:
- Clean with warm water and a mild detergent
- Protect the bath with a towel when doing jobs nearby
- Fix dripping taps early to stop staining and limescale
- Have new chips seen to early
Give the repair the full curing time we recommend before running a bath. After that, gentle cleaning keeps it looking good.
If water is getting through a crack, stop using the bath until it’s repaired. Water under the bath can damage the floor and the ceiling below.
Can I fix it myself?
For a hairline mark somewhere you will 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.
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair won’t last.

What we do, step by step
There’s not much you need to do on the day. Let us in and show us the room, and we’ll take it from there. Most visits take a morning or an afternoon.
- Dust sheets and masking go down around the bath.
- We clean, key and degrease the damage, and any rust is treated.
- Filler goes in and is sanded flush once it has set.
- Colour and gloss are matched to the surrounding surface.
- We tidy up and tell you when the bath can be used, typically the following day.
Preparing for the visit
- Make sure the area is dry
- Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
How to get a price
Upload photos of the damage and a wider shot of the entire item, with your KA15 postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed price.

Materials and what they mean for the repair
Acrylic
Acrylic feels warm and is light, but it needs firm support underneath. Repairs to cracks are reinforced from the back.
Pressed steel
Steel baths are lighter than cast iron, but have a similar enamel surface. Chips rust quickly on steel, especially around the waste, so early repairs matter.
Landlords, agents and businesses in Beith
Hospitality businesses cannot afford rooms out of action for long, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We will fit around changeovers where we can.
We’re used to working with agents and managing companies. Send the address, pictures and access details and we’ll arrange it.
Repairing versus replacing in Beith
Swapping a damaged bath for a new one normally involves a plumber, removing the old bath, re-tiling and a new panel and getting rid of the old bath. A repair fixes just the damaged area in one visit. Prices start from £95. A repair usually costs much less than people expect, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Photos let us give you the exact figure.
