Bath repair at your home in Bridge of Allan
A typical bath repair is a few hours’ work, and you can typically bathe again the following day. You won’t need a plumber or tiler, because the bath doesn’t move. We work on whirlpool & spa baths, acrylic and pressed steel enamel, and common reasons people contact us are a failed DIY repair that’s discoloured or lifting and scratches you can feel with a fingernail.
A one-year guarantee comes with the work, just as it does everywhere we cover.

Your questions about bath repair in Bridge of Allan
What happens once I’ve sent pictures?
We come back with a fixed price, typically with dates to choose from. You are under no obligation.
Is a repair better than a new one?
In most cases, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. We will be honest if it’s not worth it.
Is the work guaranteed?
All our work carries our one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.
Do you come to Bridge of Allan?
We do. We send a technician to Bridge of Allan for every job, and the price is the same as everywhere else.
Is a cracked acrylic bath repairable?
In most cases. The back of the crack is strengthened before the front is filled and refinished, so we need access under the bath.
Do you work for landlords and businesses?
Yes, frequently. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.
Will there be a smell?
Expect a mild smell while we’re working.
Is a holed acrylic bath repairable?
Normally. Photos of the hole and the underside help us check.
When to call us in Bridge of Allan
Many chips happen while the bathroom is being fitted. Tools, tiles and fittings get dropped into the bath, and the damage isn’t always spotted until later. We repair snagging damage like this regularly.
You may need us if you’ve spotted any of these:
- Rusty patches near the plughole
- A cracked acrylic bath
- Chips on the rim or sides
- Scuffs and scratches in the surface
What to look for in a quote
- What protection goes down before work starts
- Whether the price covers travel
- Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT
- Who turns up on the day
Aftercare tips
Aftercare is simple, and it makes a real difference:
- Rinse it down after each bath
- Cover the bath during DIY or decorating
- Do not leave razors or cans standing in the bath
- Do not scrub with anything abrasive
Look after the repair the same way as the bath: warm water, washing-up liquid and a soft cloth. Avoid scourers and gritty cream cleaners.
If an acrylic bath has a crack, stop showering in it until it’s repaired. Each time it flexes, the crack grows, and it can start to leak underneath.

What else we do in Bridge of Allan
Should you replace it?
Cast iron baths in particular are worth repairing: getting one out, particularly from an upstairs bathroom, is a big job, and a like-for-like replacement can be expensive. A repair keeps it in place. Our bath repair starts from £95. Our prices are the same across the UK, with no extra for Bridge of Allan. What changes the price is the job itself: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.
Why Bridge of Allan customers choose us
- We leave the room as we found it
- We’ll tell you if it’s not worth repairing
- Nothing taken out or refitted
- Same prices wherever you are

DIY kit or professional repair?
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, make sure the area is clean and completely dry, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
Repairs by material
Composite and resin
Composite baths are dense and solid, and often freestanding. Chips and scratches are filled and matched, just like other baths.
Pressed steel
Steel baths are lighter than cast iron, but have a similar enamel surface. Chips rust quickly on steel, particularly by the plughole, so early repairs matter.
When we’d advise against a repair
Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair cannot fix:
- Wear across the whole surface, which needs re-enamelling
- A bath that moves underfoot, until its support is fixed
- Leaking fittings, which need a plumber
Not sure? Send photos and we’ll give you a straight answer.
Surfaces we repair
- Cast iron enamel
- Pressed steel enamel
- Acrylic
- Roll-top & freestanding
- Whirlpool & spa baths
Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £95. Prices are worked out job by job, from your photos. What matters most is:
- The material and finish
- How many areas need work
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- Access to the area
Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. Damage, material and access decide it.
Quotes from your photos
We price nearly every job from photos. This is what to send:
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- One picture of the whole bath
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
No survey visit is needed: we price from pictures. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through, and you’ll get a fixed figure back.
What happens on the day
You do not need to empty the room beforehand. Everything we use comes in the van with us, put protection down and start once you’re happy with the plan. Most jobs take a few hours, depending on the damage, and you can get on with other things while we are there.
- First, the area is cleaned and any loose enamel or rust is removed.
- Next we fill the damage and sand it smooth and level.
- We mix the colour on the day to match your bath’s exact shade.
- We build up the finish and polish it into the surrounding enamel.
- The repair is left to cure, and most baths can be used the day after.
Preparing for the visit
- Open a window if you can
- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
How to get a price
Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us pictures through the quote form. With one close-up and one wider picture, we can give you a fixed price without visiting.
