FAQs for Bogmoor
Can you price it without visiting?
Yes, almost always. Clear pictures let us give you a fixed price without visiting.
Which areas do you work in?
All of Moray, and the rest of the UK. There’s no extra charge for travel.
Do you hold any accreditations?
We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.
Can a cracked acrylic bath be fixed?
Most of the time. We reinforce the crack from behind, then fill and refinish the front, so we need access under the bath.
What do you need from me?
Some photos, your postcode and how to reach you. On the day, access to the room.
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
Yes. Check with your landlord; we can send the quote to them too.
Is there any odour?
A little, depending on the job. Open windows and an extractor fan help, and it soon fades.
Do I have to be there?
Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. You don’t need to watch us work.
Bath repair at your home in Bogmoor
A repair fixes just the damaged area and blends it into the rest of the bath, which is far cheaper than replacing a fitted bath and the tiles around it. You can generally use the bath the day after. We work on whirlpool & spa baths, acrylic and cast iron enamel, and people most often call us about damage done while the bathroom was being fitted and rust by the waste and overflow.
Big or small, you get the same one-year guarantee.

Keeping it looking good
After the repair has cured, a few habits help it last:
- A dripping tap stains enamel, so fix it early
- Get any new chip repaired before it rusts
- Rinse it down after each bath
- Put a towel in the bath if you are working above it
Look after the repair the same way as the bath: warm water, washing-up liquid and a soft cloth. Keep scouring pads and gritty cleaners away from it.
A small chip is a quick job. Left alone, they stain and can rust, so it’s worth getting them done early.
Repairing versus replacing in Bogmoor
Cast iron baths especially are worth keeping: getting one out, particularly from an upstairs bathroom, is a big job, and replacing like for like is not cheap. Repairing it leaves it where it is. Prices start from £95. Every job is a little different, so each one is priced on its own. The size and type of damage, the material and access all make a difference, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

DIY repairs versus a professional job
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.
A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.

Materials and what they mean for the repair
Cast iron
Cast iron baths are thick and very strong, with a fused enamel surface. A chip down to the iron can rust, but the body of the bath lasts a very long time, which makes it well worth repairing.
Acrylic
Acrylic baths are moulded sheet reinforced underneath. There is no rust, but cracks, holes and scratches happen, and cracks need support from behind to stay fixed.
Signs you need bath repair in Bogmoor
Dropped items cause the majority of chips, and building work is a common culprit. Cracks in acrylic have a different cause: poor support underneath, so the bath flexes when it’s full.
Customers usually contact us about:
- A hole punched through by something heavy
- Chips along the edge of the bath
- Snagging damage from a refit
- Scuffs and scratches in the surface
What your quote should include
- Whether the price covers travel
- Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?
- What happens if they find more damage
- What protection goes down before work starts
What we do, step by step
On the day itself, there is little for you to do. Show us the job, point us to the room, and we will take it from there. The job generally runs to two to three hours for most chips, tidy-up included.
- 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.
- We apply the finish coats and polish the repair so it blends in.
- The repair is left to cure, and most baths can be used the day after.
How to prepare
- Make sure the room can be ventilated
- Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
