About our bath repair in Caputh
Small damage on a bath is worth repairing early. Exposed metal on enamelled baths soon rusts, while cracks in acrylic grow each time the bath moves. Repairing it stops the damage getting worse. If you are dealing with chips on the rim or sides and a failed DIY repair that’s discoloured or lifting, we can normally put it right.
Whatever the size of the job, you get the same one-year guarantee in Caputh and across Perth and Kinross.

How to look after the repair
After the repair has cured, a few habits help it last:
- Get a dripping tap fixed promptly
- Cover the bath during DIY or decorating
- Have new chips seen to early
- Store metal items away from the bath
There is nothing special to do after a repair, beyond gentle cleaning. Skip bleach and gritty creams and rinse after use.
Tape over a fresh chip or crack until it’s repaired, so water can’t get in. Remove it before the repair.
Common problems we fix in Caputh
Nearly all the chips we see start with something being dropped: bottles, shower heads, tiles and tools. On steel and cast iron baths, a chip that reaches the metal will start to rust.
You may need us if you’ve spotted any of these:
- Snagging damage from a refit
- Holes from dropped items
- Hairline or through cracks in acrylic
- An old repair that has yellowed or come loose
Questions to ask before you book
- Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT
- How the room is protected while they work
- If travel is included in the price
- Who turns up on the day
Common questions in Caputh
It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?
In most cases. The old repair comes out first, so let us know about it.
Is there any odour?
Some materials have a smell while they’re applied, which is why we ventilate. It clears as the materials cure.
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
Yes. Check with your landlord; we can send the quote to them too.
Can landlords book you?
We do, regularly. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.
Something went through my bath. Can it be fixed?
Typically, yes, if we can reach behind it. We back the hole, fill it and refinish the surface.
Can you quote from photos?
Normally, yes. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed quote.
What if the damage is worse than the pictures show?
It’s rare, but if it happens we talk to you first. You decide whether to go ahead.
What information do you need?
Some pictures, your postcode and how to reach you. On the day, access to the room.
DIY repairs versus a professional job
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair will not last.
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.
The process
It’s a tidy, low-fuss visit. We confirm the time with you beforehand, protect the area, and get on with the job, which usually takes a few hours, depending on the damage. If anything looks different from your photos, we’ll talk to you before going ahead.
- We protect the bath and the floor around it.
- The damaged area is cleaned, keyed and degreased.
- We fill it, let it set, then sand it flush.
- We match both the colour and the shine.
- We clear up and give you the curing time, normally until the day after.
Getting ready for the visit
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
- Point us to the nearest place to park
- Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
Getting a price
Getting a price is easy: take a close-up of the damage and a photo from further back, send them over with your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price. Quotes are free and you’re under no obligation.

When we’d advise against a repair
We’ll always be straight with you, so here’s what a repair will not do:
- Acrylic cracks with no access behind them
- Water coming from the waste or taps rather than the bath
- A whole bath that’s dull or worn, where a full re-enamel is the better fix
Not sure? Send photos and we will give you a straight answer.
What we work on
- Roll-top & freestanding
- Pressed steel enamel
- Whirlpool & spa baths
- Acrylic
- Cast iron enamel
What affects the price in Caputh
Repairs from £95. Every quote is fixed and free. What we take into account:
- What kind of damage it is
- The material
- Doing more than one item at once
- How hard the colour is to match
A repair normally costs much less than people expect, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Photos let us give you the exact figure.
How to get a fixed price
A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. It helps if you send:
- A photo taken from further back
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- Details of any past repairs
- Where you are, by postcode
To get a price, send two or three pictures using our quote form or call us. We’ll tell you honestly whether it can be repaired.
Repair or replace: which is better?
If the rest of the bath is in good condition, a repair is almost always the better choice. It costs less, takes less time and causes far less upheaval, and the bathroom stays as it is. Where the entire surface is tired, we may suggest re-enamelling instead. Prices start from £95. The price depends on how much damage there is and what kind, what it’s made of and how many jobs we combine into one visit. You get a fixed price from your pictures, so there are no surprises on the day.

- No need to remove anything
- Most jobs done in one visit
