When we would advise against a repair
We’d rather lose a job than do one that will not last, so these are the limits:
- Cracks in acrylic we cannot reach from underneath
- Wear across the entire surface, which needs re-enamelling
- Flexing caused by a failed cradle or loose feet
Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly before you book.

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 isn’t cheap. Repairing it leaves it where it is. Our bath repair starts from £95. Rather than charging by the hour, we price the entire job up front. Damage, material and access decide it, and doing several items at once reduces it.
Why us?
- We come to you, anywhere in the UK
- Same prices wherever you are
- Dust sheets down, tidy finish
- Colour mixed on the day to match

Common questions in Bridgeton
Is repairing better than replacing?
Usually, when the rest is in good condition. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. If replacing would be better, we will say so.
Something went through my bath. Can it be fixed?
Normally, yes, if we can reach behind it. The hole is backed, filled and refinished to match.
How long does the repair take to cure?
Most baths can be used the day after. We’ll tell you the exact curing time when we finish.
What do you need from me?
A close-up, a wider photo and your postcode. Then we’ll agree a date.
Do you work in Bridgeton?
We do. Technicians travel to Bridgeton from across the region, with no extra charge for travel.
Can tenants book a repair?
Yes, but check with your landlord or agent first. Landlords are often glad to have it sorted.
Can rust on a bath be repaired?
Yes, it’s one of the most common repairs we do. The rust is cut back to clean metal and sealed before we fill and finish it.
Is my repair covered?
All our work carries a one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.
Work for landlords and builders
We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams in Glasgow and across the UK. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which matters when someone is living in the home.
For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover, saving last-minute replacements. We can visit several plots in one trip.
Common problems we fix in Bridgeton
A cracked acrylic bath typically wasn’t supported properly. Legs that aren’t adjusted, a missing cradle or a soft floor let the base flex until the acrylic gives way.
The things customers generally mention when they call are:
- Rust spots around the plughole
- Scuffs and scratches in the surface
- Snagging damage from a refit
- A hole punched through by something heavy
Comparing quotes
- When it can be used again
- How the colour is matched
- Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?
- Whether there are any call-out or travel charges
Aftercare tips
Much of the damage we repair could have been avoided. A few tips:
- Do not leave a fresh chip for long
- Store metal items away from the bath
- Check that an acrylic bath doesn’t move when you stand in it
- Stick to mild cleaners and a soft cloth
Leave the repair to cure for as long as we say before using the bath. From then on, mild cleaning is all it needs.
Small chips are quick to repair. Left alone, they stain and can rust, so early repair saves time and money.
What your bath is made of matters
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.
Cast iron
Cast iron baths are so heavy that repairing in place makes obvious sense. Only the enamel surface wears or chips, and that is what we repair.
How it works
We agree an arrival time beforehand. Once we are there, the work takes two to three hours for most chips. We leave the room clean.
- We protect the bath and the floor around it.
- We clean, key and degrease the damage.
- Filler goes in and is sanded flush once it has set.
- We match both the colour and the shine.
- We tidy up and tell you when the bath can be used, generally the following day.
How to prepare
- Have a window or extractor fan available
- Let us know about parking or access
- Let the surface dry out before the visit
How to get a price
Pricing is simple: take a close-up of the damage and a photo from further back, send them over with your postcode, and you will get a fixed price back. Quotes are free and no obligation.

Should I try a DIY kit first?
For a hairline mark somewhere you will never see, a kit may be enough. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, a professional repair is worth it.
A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it won’t stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.
