Common questions in Bunnahabhain
Do you cover Bunnahabhain?
We do. Repair technicians travel to Bunnahabhain from across the region, with no extra charge for travel.
How quickly can you book me in?
Your quote comes with available dates. Tell us if you need it done quickly.
Can you match an avocado or pink bath?
Yes, coloured baths are no problem. We tint the finish to your bath on site.
I rent my home. Can I book you?
We’re happy to deal with the tenant, landlord or agent. Just make sure the landlord agrees.
Will it make a mess?
We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and tidy up before we leave.
Is repairing better than replacing?
In most cases, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. If it is not worth repairing, we’ll tell you.
Will I be able to see the repair?
On a bath in good condition, a colour matched repair is very hard to spot. On older, dull enamel the repair can look glossier than the area around it.
What areas do you cover?
We cover the whole UK, including Bunnahabhain and the rest of Argyll and Bute. Just include your postcode and we will offer you dates.
Bath repair in Bunnahabhain, done in place
Most bath damage, from chips and cracks to rust spots and holes, is repaired in place. There’s no plumbing to disconnect, your tiles stay as they are, and the finish is matched to the rest of the bath. Common call-outs are for rust by the waste and overflow and chips caused by builders, across cast iron enamel, whirlpool & spa baths and roll-top & freestanding.
You are covered for a year from the day of the repair. Just call us if there is a problem and we will sort it.

DIY kit or professional repair?
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair won’t last.
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, then guarantee it for a year.
Repair or replace: which is better?
Replacing a bath rarely stops at the bath: tiles along the rim generally crack when it comes out, the panel may not fit the new one, and a plumber has to disconnect and reconnect everything. Repairing the damage avoids all of that. Our bath repair starts from £95. A few things move the price: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Send photos and you’ll get a fixed figure.

How to look after the repair
Once the work has cured, treat it gently:
- Have new chips seen to early
- Rinse it down after each bath
- If an acrylic bath flexes, have its feet adjusted
- Use a soft cloth and washing-up liquid for everyday cleaning
A repaired bath needs no special treatment, just sensible cleaning. Skip bleach and gritty creams.
Rust spreads under enamel faster than most people expect. A chip the size of a fingernail can become a much larger patch if it’s left for months, so it pays to deal with it early.
The process
Visits start with a quick look at the job together. Next, we cover and mask everything nearby and the work begins. Allow a morning or an afternoon.
- We protect the bath and the floor around it.
- The damaged area is cleaned, keyed and degreased, and any rust is treated.
- We fill it, let it set, then sand it flush.
- Colour and gloss are matched to the surrounding surface.
- We tidy up and tell you when the bath can be used, generally the day after.
How to prepare
- Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
- Make sure the room can be ventilated
- Tell us about parking, stairs or access
Getting a price
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.

Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £95. We price every job individually. What matters most is:
- What kind of damage it is
- Whether we combine several jobs
- How many areas need work
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
Set against the cost of replacement, repairing usually costs far less, because there is no removal, plumbing or making good. The quote lists exactly what you’re paying for.
Send pictures for a quote
Phone pictures are fine. Ensure they show:
- Something in shot to show the size
- A wider photo showing the whole bath
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- The material, if you know it
Upload a photo of the damage and one of the entire item, with your PA46 postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote.
When we would advise against a repair
We’ll always be straight with you, so here’s what a repair won’t do:
- Cracks in parts of an acrylic bath we cannot get to from below
- Rust that has eaten right through a steel bath
- Leaks from the waste or overflow fittings (a plumber’s job)
If in doubt, send photos and we will say what we think before booking.
Surfaces we repair
- Roll-top & freestanding
- Pressed steel enamel
- Acrylic
- Whirlpool & spa baths
- Cast iron enamel

What else we do in Bunnahabhain
Repairs by material
Pressed steel
Pressed steel is thinner and lighter, with an enamel finish like cast iron. Exposed steel rusts fast, particularly by the plughole, so repair chips early.
Acrylic
An acrylic bath is a moulded sheet strengthened from below. There’s no rust, but cracks, holes and scratches happen, and a crack only stays repaired if it’s supported underneath.
