About our bath repair in Brechin
Whatever has happened to the bath, we aim for the same result: a repair that is smooth, sound and hard to spot. We prepare the area properly, fill and shape it, then match the colour and gloss so it sits flush with the rest of the bath. We work on whirlpool & spa baths, acrylic and pressed steel enamel, and common reasons people contact us are snagging damage from a refit and rust spots around the plughole.
You are covered after we leave: our one-year guarantee applies to every job, and we will explain exactly what it covers when we quote.

Why repair rather than replace?
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. A repair keeps it in place. Prices start from £95. It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Send pictures and you’ll get a fixed figure.
Why us?
- One-year guarantee on every repair
- Most jobs done in one visit
- Colour mixed on the day to match
- Free fixed quotes from pictures

Materials and what they mean for the repair
Acrylic
Acrylic is light and warm to the touch, but it needs firm support underneath. Cracks are strengthened from behind before the front is finished.
Cast iron
Cast iron baths are so heavy that repairing in place makes obvious sense. The enamel is the part that wears or chips, and that is what we repair.
For landlords and businesses
Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Brechin use us as well as householders. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it usually costs far less than a refit.
Rental properties take more wear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.
When we’d advise against a repair
To be straight with you, there are a few things a repair won’t fix:
- Flexing caused by a failed cradle or loose feet
- Cracks in acrylic we can’t reach from underneath
- A steel bath rusted through

How it works
Expect a friendly, tidy visit. We confirm the time with you beforehand, cover and mask the work area, and get on with the job, which typically takes a morning or an afternoon. If we find something your pictures didn’t show, we will explain it before carrying on.
- We clean the area and remove any loose enamel or rust.
- We fill the damage and sand it flush with the surrounding surface.
- The colour is mixed on the spot to match your bath.
- We build up the finish and polish it into the surrounding enamel.
- We leave it to cure; you can typically use the bath the next day.
Getting ready for the visit
- Have a window or extractor fan available
- Keep a parking space free if you can
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
Getting a price

What bath repair costs
Prices start from £95. A fixed quote means you know the cost before you book. We take into account:
- How many areas need work
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- Unusual colours or finishes
- How many items we do on one visit
What it costs depends on the type and amount of damage, the material and how many jobs we combine into one visit. You get a fixed quote from your photos, so there are no surprises on the day.
Quotes from your pictures
You can normally get a fixed price without us visiting. To help us price it:
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- One picture of the whole bath
- What it’s made of, if you know
A quote takes minutes to ask for: photograph the damage, then the whole bath, add your postcode and send them over. You’ll get a fixed quote, not an estimate.
Your questions about bath repair in Brechin
What happens next?
You get a fixed price and available dates. If we need another angle, we will ask.
What if the damage is worse than the pictures show?
The price is fixed for what the photos show. If there’s more, we will tell you before starting.
Will the repair show?
On a glossy bath, you’ll struggle to find it. On worn enamel, it can look shinier than the rest.
Can you repair several things at once?
Of course, and it normally saves money. Just add the extra items to your pictures and you will get one combined price.
Are you a vetted contractor?
We are accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.
Can rust on a bath be repaired?
Yes, it’s one of the most common repairs we do. We take it back to sound metal, seal it, fill it and match the colour.
Do you come to Brechin?
Yes, we do. We send a technician to Brechin for every job, with no extra charge for travel.
Is there a guarantee?
All our work carries a one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.
Keeping it looking good
A little care keeps the finish looking good. We recommend:
- Get a dripping tap fixed promptly
- Keep abrasive pads and gritty cleaners away from the bath
- If an acrylic bath flexes, have its feet adjusted
- Stick to mild cleaners and a soft cloth
Keep metal objects like razors and cans off the surface, because they can mark the enamel. A dripping tap should be fixed early, too.
Until we visit, a strip of waterproof tape over the damage helps, so water can’t get in. Take it off before we arrive.
