Repair or replace in Buchanhaven?
A new bath costs more than the bath itself: removal and disposal, plumbing, a new panel, tiling and decorating. With a repair, it’s one visit and one price. Prices start from £95. Instead of hourly rates, we price the whole job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and doing several items at once reduces it.
What you get with us
- Colour mixed on the day to match
- One price list for the whole UK
- Every repair guaranteed for a year
- Technicians who travel to you, UK-wide

Your questions about bath repair in Buchanhaven
It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?
Most of the time. Tell us what was done before and we’ll plan for it.
What information do you need?
Send photos through the quote form or call 0345 017 0787, and we will take it from there.
Do you work for landlords and businesses?
Yes. We carry out repairs for homeowners, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses across Aberdeenshire.
Is it messy?
No. The work area is masked and covered, and we take our waste away with us.
How long before I can use the bath?
Most baths can be used the day after. We will tell you the exact curing time when we finish.
Will the price change on the day?
It’s rare, but if it happens we talk to you first. The price only changes if you agree.
Will I be able to see the repair?
We aim for a repair you can’t easily find. The rest of the bath’s condition makes a difference, and we will tell you what to expect.
What does bath repair cost?
Prices start from £95. Because every job differs, we price from photos. You will get a fixed figure before booking.
Different materials, different repairs
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 the part we put right.
Acrylic
Acrylic feels warm and is light, but it needs firm support underneath. Cracks are strengthened from behind before the front is finished.
How to look after the repair
To keep it looking its best for years:
- Clean with warm water and a mild detergent
- Store metal items away from the bath
- Ensure an acrylic bath is firm underfoot
- Have new chips seen to early
Clean with mild, non-abrasive cleaners and avoid dropping heavy items on the repaired area. Get any new chip seen to quickly, before rust sets in.
Avoid standing in a cracked acrylic bath until it’s fixed. Each time it flexes, the crack grows, and it can start to leak underneath.
Honest limits
We won’t take on work that won’t last, so these are the limits:
- A whole bath that’s dull or worn, where a full re-enamel is the better fix
- Leaks from the waste or overflow fittings (a plumber’s job)
- A steel bath rusted through
Not sure? Send pictures and we’ll give you a straight answer.
What we work on
- Cast iron enamel
- Pressed steel enamel
- Acrylic

For landlords and businesses
We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, fixing chips and scratches before handover so nothing needs replacing. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.
We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Buchanhaven as well as householders. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it costs much less than replacing.

Common problems we fix in Buchanhaven
Rust tends to begin where water collects, by the plughole, beneath dripping taps or in an unrepaired chip. Water on bare metal causes rust that creeps under the surrounding enamel.
Get in touch if you’ve noticed any of these:
- A chipped rim or side
- Impact holes in acrylic
- Rusty patches near the plughole
- A kit repair that didn’t last
Before you book anyone
- A fixed price, and whether VAT is included
- Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price
- What happens if they find more damage
- Whether a trained technician does the job
What affects the price in Buchanhaven
Prices start from £95. You won’t pay by the hour. The price depends on:
- The size and number of damaged areas
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- Doing more than one item at once
- Unusual colours or finishes
The price depends on the type and amount of damage, the material and how many jobs we combine into one visit. You get a fixed price from your pictures, so you know the cost before booking.
Quotes from your pictures
It only takes a minute to photograph the damage, and it saves a visit. Try to send:
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
You do not need a survey visit. Nearly every job can be priced from pictures: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we’ll come back to you with a fixed figure.
How it works
A typical visit goes like this: we arrive on time, protect everything around the work area, do the job and tidy away. Allow a few hours from start to finish. Before leaving, we tell you when it can be used and what to avoid for the first few days.
- 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 day after.
Preparing for the visit
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
Getting a price
Call 0345 017 0787 or use the quote form. With one close-up and one wider picture, we can give you a fixed price the same day in most cases.
