What we cannot put right
To be straight with you, there are a few things a repair won’t fix:
- Wear across the entire surface, which needs re-enamelling
- Cracks in acrylic we can’t reach from underneath
- Leaks from the waste or overflow fittings (a plumber’s job)
Send us photos and we will tell you honestly before booking.
Surfaces we repair
- Pressed steel enamel
- Cast iron enamel
- Whirlpool & spa baths
- Roll-top & freestanding
- Acrylic
How we price bath repair
Prices start from £95. We charge the same across the UK, including Boghead. What changes the price is:
- Doing more than one item at once
- How hard the colour is to match
- The material
- The type of damage
We do not add extras on the day. The price we quote from your pictures is the price you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.
Getting a price from pictures
Before you send pictures, a few simple things make all the difference:
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- One picture of the whole bath
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- Details of any past repairs
Email us a picture of the damage and one of the entire item, with your ML11 postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed price.
Signs you need bath repair in Boghead
The usual cause is something heavy dropped into the bath, and a lot happen during bathroom refits. Cracks in acrylic have a different cause: the bath isn’t properly supported, so it flexes under weight.
Common reasons people in Boghead contact us are:
- Cracks in an acrylic bath
- Holes from dropped items
- Chips caused by builders
- A failed DIY repair that’s discoloured or lifting
Comparing quotes
- How long it needs to cure
- What prep work is covered
- What protection goes down before work starts
- How changes to the job are handled
Looking after it afterwards
To keep it looking its best for years:
- Rinse the bath after use, especially in hard water areas
- Fix dripping taps early to stop staining and limescale
- Get any new chip repaired before it rusts
- Cover the bath during DIY or decorating
There’s nothing special to do after a repair, just sensible cleaning. Skip bleach and gritty creams and rinse after use.
Rust under enamel spreads surprisingly quickly. Left for months, a small chip can grow into a large rust patch, so it pays to deal with it early.
Your questions about bath repair in Boghead
What information do you need?
A close-up, a wider photo and your postcode. After that, we just agree a date.
Can you repair a failed DIY repair?
Yes. We take out the old repair and do it properly. Mention it when you send pictures.
Is a bath repair durable?
It should, as long as the bath is firm and the area was prepared well. It’s covered by our one-year guarantee.
Do the materials smell?
Expect a mild smell while we are working that clears as it cures.
Can you repair a crack in an acrylic bath?
In most cases. We reinforce the crack from behind, then fill and refinish the front, so access behind the panel is important.
What does bath repair cost?
Prices start from £95. The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from photos. You will get a fixed figure before booking.
Do you come to Boghead?
Yes. We cover the whole UK and travel to Boghead and the rest of South Lanarkshire. Send us pictures for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
Can you repair something that is been repaired before?
Most of the time. Tell us what was done before and we will plan for it.
What happens on the day
It’s a tidy, low-fuss visit. We agree the arrival time in advance, cover and mask the work area, then carry out the work, which typically takes a morning or an afternoon. If anything looks different from your pictures, we will talk to you before going ahead.
- First, we check the damage against your pictures and agree the plan.
- 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.
- Finally, it’s polished to match the shine and left to cure.
Getting ready for the visit
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
Ask for a price
For a price in Boghead, photos are the quickest way: one close up, one from further back, plus your postcode. You’ll get a fixed quote with dates to choose from.

Can I fix it myself?
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.
Repairing versus replacing in Boghead
Replacing a fitted bath normally involves a plumber, lifting out the old bath, making good the tiles and panel and disposing of the old one. Repairing it deals only with the damage in one visit. Prices start from £95. A repair is priced on what needs doing, not your postcode. You will see the full price before you book, with nothing added on the day.
Why us?
- Nothing taken out or refitted
- We leave the room as we found it
- Free fixed quotes from pictures
- No extra charge for your area

Landlord and trade work in Boghead
Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs in South Lanarkshire and across the UK. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which matters when someone is living in the home.
Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.
