Bath repair in Bridge of Earn without replacing anything
A repair fixes just the damaged area and blends it into the rest of the bath, which costs far less than replacing a fitted bath and the tiles around it. You can normally use the bath the next day. We regularly repair cast iron enamel, acrylic and roll-top & freestanding, and the jobs we see most are deep scratches in acrylic and holes from dropped items.
All of our repairs are guaranteed for twelve months in Bridge of Earn and everywhere else. We return to put right any problem with the work.

DIY repairs versus a professional job
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 frequently lifts.
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, make sure the area is clean and completely dry, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.
FAQs for Bridge of Earn
When can I have a bath again?
Normally the following day. We will tell you the exact curing time when we finish.
Will the price change on the day?
If we find something the photos didn’t show, we explain it first. You decide whether to go ahead.
What about rust by the waste?
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.
Is there a guarantee?
Yes, for a year. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.
Do the materials smell?
There can be some smell while we work, which is why we ventilate. It fades as everything cures.
Can you repair a hole in a bath?
Generally, yes, if we can reach behind it. We back the hole, fill it and refinish the surface.
Will you leave a mess?
Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we leave the room clean.
Is a cracked acrylic bath repairable?
Often, yes, as long as we can get to the back of the crack to support it. Check under the bath panel, or send us a picture.

Repairing versus replacing in Bridge of Earn
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. Our bath repair starts from £95. No two jobs are quite the same, so we price each one individually. The size and type of damage, the material and access all play a part, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

When a repair is not the answer
Some jobs are not right for a repair, including:
- Leaking fittings, which need a plumber
- Flexing caused by a failed cradle or loose feet
- Cracks in parts of an acrylic bath we can’t get to from below
If in doubt, send photos and we will say what we think.

Common problems we fix in Bridge of Earn
Rust normally starts where water sits, around the waste, under the taps or in an old chip. Water on bare metal causes rust that creeps under the surrounding enamel.
The things customers usually mention when they call include:
- Rust spots around the plughole
- Cracks in an acrylic bath
- A kit repair that didn’t last
- Deep scratches in acrylic
Questions to ask before booking
- If travel is included in the price
- How the colour is matched
- What aftercare is recommended
- How soon you can use it again
Different materials, different repairs
Composite and resin
Stone resin and composite baths are heavy and solid, and often freestanding. Chips and scratches can be filled and colour matched, just like other baths.
Cast iron
Cast iron is heavy and rigid, finished with fired enamel. Chips can rust if left, but the body of the bath lasts a very long time, so it’s always worth repairing.
What happens on the day
Nothing needs to be moved out of the room. We bring everything we need with us, put protection down and start once you are happy with the plan. It usually takes two to three hours for most chips, and you can get on with other things while we’re there.
- Dust sheets and masking go down around the bath.
- We clean, key and degrease the damage.
- We fill it, let it set, then sand it flush.
- Colour and gloss are matched to the surrounding surface.
- We clear up and give you the curing time, normally until the following day.
Getting ready for the visit
- Have a window or extractor fan available
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
