We travel to Canisbay for chip and crack repairs to enamel, acrylic and cast iron baths. Nothing is taken out, and the work is guaranteed.
- Repairs from £95
- Deep scratches in acrylic
- Cracks in an acrylic bath
Bath repair at your home in Canisbay
We repair just the damaged spot and colour-match it to the bath, which costs far less than replacing a fitted bath. Most baths can be used again the day after. Typical jobs include a failed DIY repair that’s discoloured or lifting and deep scratches in acrylic, across whirlpool & spa baths, roll-top & freestanding and acrylic.
All of our repairs are guaranteed for twelve months. We return to put right any problem with the work.

What a repair can’t fix
A repair isn’t always the answer, and we would rather say so up front. Repairs won’t solve:
- Water coming from the waste or taps rather than the bath
- Rust that has eaten right through a steel bath
- A bath worn all over, where resurfacing makes more sense
If in doubt, send photos and we will say what we think.
Materials we repair
- Whirlpool & spa baths
- Acrylic
- Cast iron enamel
- Pressed steel enamel
- Roll-top & freestanding
What bath repair costs
Repairs from £95. We charge the same across the UK, including Canisbay. The price reflects:
- The type of damage
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- The size and number of damaged areas
A repair usually costs much less than people expect, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Send pictures and we’ll give you the exact figure.
Send photos for a quote
Phone photos are fine, there’s no need for anything special. Make sure they show:
- Natural light rather than flash
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- The material, if you know it
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: take one close-up and one wider shot of the bath, add your postcode and send them over. What comes back is a fixed price, not a guess.
Questions from Canisbay
How soon can you come?
That depends on our diary for your area. We’ll offer you dates when we send your quote.
Is my repair covered?
Every repair comes with our one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.
How do I get a price for bath repair in Canisbay?
Prices start from £95. The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from photos. You know the full cost before anything is booked.
How long does the repair take to cure?
Normally the day after. We confirm the time before we leave.
Do you work in Canisbay?
Yes. We work across the UK and come to Canisbay and the rest of Highland. Send pictures and we’ll quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
Generally, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. We’ll be honest if it’s not worth it.
Can you quote from photos?
In nearly every case. If photos don’t show enough, we’ll ask for another angle.
Can pets and children be at home?
On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children, so the repair isn’t disturbed while it cures.

How it works
Arrival times are agreed in advance, so you know when to expect us. Once we’re there, the work takes a few hours. We leave the room clean and you’ll know when it can be used.
- We clean the area and remove any loose enamel or rust.
- Next we fill the damage and sand it smooth and level.
- The colour is mixed on the spot to match your bath.
- Finish coats go on, then the repair is polished to blend in.
- The repair is left to cure, and most baths can be used the day after.
Getting ready for the visit
- Let us know if it has been repaired before
- Let us know which floor the room is on
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work

What else we do in Canisbay
For landlords and businesses
Rental properties take more wear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.
Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, fixing chips and scratches before handover. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.
Common problems we fix in Canisbay
Glass and heavy bottles cause more chips than anything else. Taps and wastes cause problems too: water collects there, so chips nearby rust quickly.
Common reasons people in Canisbay contact us include:
- An old repair that has yellowed or come loose
- Chips along the edge of the bath
- Impact holes in acrylic
- Rust spots around the plughole

Can I fix it myself?
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 will not stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.
What your bath is made of matters
Composite and resin
Stone resin and composite baths are heavy 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.
How to look after the repair
To keep it looking its best:
- Check that an acrylic bath doesn’t move when you stand in it
- Put a towel in the bath if you’re working above it
- Rinse it down after each bath
- Get a dripping tap fixed promptly
Care for the repair the same way as the bath: warm water, washing-up liquid and a soft cloth. Keep scouring pads and gritty cleaners away from it.
If an acrylic bath has a crack, stop showering in it until it’s repaired. Every use opens the crack a little more, and water can get through to the floor below.
