DIY repairs versus a professional job
For a hairline mark somewhere you will never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
How we handle bath repair in Bladnoch
You don’t need a new bath because of a chip. Our technicians fill, shape and refinish the damage, with the colour mixed on site. We regularly repair cast iron enamel, whirlpool & spa baths and roll-top & freestanding, and the jobs we see most are damage beneath the taps and rusty patches near the plughole.
You’re covered after we leave: each job carries a one-year guarantee, and we will explain exactly what it covers when we quote.

Honest limits
Not everything can be repaired, and we will tell you before we start. We cannot fix:
- Water coming from the waste or taps rather than the bath
- A bath worn all over, where resurfacing makes more sense
- A bath that flexes because its feet or cradle have failed (that needs fixing first)
If in doubt, send photos and we will say what we think.
Materials we work on in Bladnoch
- Pressed steel enamel
- Roll-top & freestanding
- Acrylic
- Cast iron enamel
- Whirlpool & spa baths
Repairs by material
Acrylic
Acrylic feels warm and is light, but it relies on good support. Cracks are strengthened from behind before the front is finished.
Pressed steel
Steel baths and trays have a thin metal body under the enamel. Exposed steel rusts quickly, so the metal is treated and sealed before the repair.
For landlords and businesses
If you manage property in Bladnoch, we will quote for several properties at once. Just send pictures for each address and we’ll price them together.
Hospitality businesses can’t afford rooms out of action for long, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We can work around your bookings.
Your questions about bath repair in Bladnoch
What happens once I’ve sent pictures?
We check the damage, the material and your postcode, then reply with a quote.
I tried a repair kit. Can you fix it?

How long before I can use the bath?
Most baths can be used the following day. We confirm the time before we leave.
What areas do you cover?
We work UK-wide, and that includes Bladnoch. Prices do not change with location.
Is there a call-out fee?
Travel is included in the price, with the same prices everywhere we work.
Do you repair coloured baths?
Yes. We mix the colour on the day to match, including older coloured suites.

Frequently, if there is access underneath. We back the hole, fill it and refinish the surface.

A little, depending on the job. Open windows and an extractor fan help.

Should you replace it?
Think about the hidden costs of a new bath: taking out the old one, plumbing, tiling, a panel and redecorating. A repair is one job, done in one visit. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. A few things move the price: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

Prices and what affects them
Repairs from £95. We give every job a fixed price from pictures. These are the things that affect it:
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- Whether we combine several jobs
- How many areas need work
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
Our prices are the same across the UK, with no extra for Bladnoch. The job itself decides the price: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.
How to get a fixed quote
Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what to send:
- Natural light rather than flash
- A wider photo showing the entire bath
- The material, if you know it
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
For a price in Bladnoch, the easiest route is photos: a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode. We reply with a fixed quote and our next available dates.
Aftercare tips
Good habits make a big difference to how long a repair lasts. Here’s what we suggest:
- Keep metal cans and razors off the surface
- Avoid scourers, wire wool and gritty cream cleaners
- Have new chips seen to early
- Clean with warm water and a mild detergent
Clean with mild, non-abrasive cleaners and avoid dropping heavy items on the repaired area. Deal with new chips early, before rust can start.
Stop using the bath if a crack lets water through until it’s repaired. Water under the bath can damage the floor and the ceiling below.

How it works

- We start by cleaning the damage and taking out loose enamel and rust.
- Next we fill the damage and sand it smooth and level.
- The colour is mixed on the spot to match your bath.
- Finish coats go on, then the repair is polished to blend in.
- The repair is left to cure, and most baths can be used the day after.
