Bath repair at your home in Carradale
Whatever has happened to the bath, we aim for the same result: a repair that is smooth, sound and hard to spot. We prepare the area properly, fill and shape it, then match the colour and gloss so it sits flush with the rest of the bath. Typical jobs include impact holes in acrylic and damage beneath the taps, in pressed steel enamel, roll-top & freestanding and acrylic.
The work is covered for a year after we finish. Just call us if there is a problem and we will come back.

For landlords and businesses
Letting agents often send us photos straight from the inventory. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.
Rental properties take more wear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.
How we price bath repair
Prices start from £95. Prices are worked out job by job, from your pictures. What matters most is:
- The colour and finish to match
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
The price reflects the work involved, not where you live. You’ll see the full price before you book, with nothing added on the day.
Getting a price from pictures
You can take the pictures on your phone, there’s no need for anything special. Make sure they show:
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- The material, if you know it
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
To get a price, send a couple of photos through our quote form or call us. We’ll say straight away if a repair is the right fix.
How it works
Visits start with a quick look at the job together. After that, protection goes down around the work area and the work begins. It normally takes a few hours, and we will tell you if anything changes.
- We protect the bath and the floor around it.
- The damaged area is cleaned, keyed and degreased, and any rust is treated.
- Filler goes in and is sanded flush once it has set.
- Colour and gloss are matched to the surrounding surface.
- We clear up and give you the curing time, normally until the day after.
Before we arrive
- Ensure the area is dry
- Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
- Ensure the room can be ventilated
Getting a price
Most customers in Carradale get their price from photos. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we will send back a fixed quote and some dates.

Honest limits
It helps to know what we can’t do too:
- Water coming from the waste or taps rather than the bath
- Flexing caused by a failed cradle or loose feet
- A bath worn all over, where resurfacing makes more sense

Repair or replace in Carradale?
Cast iron baths especially are worth keeping: getting one out, particularly from an upstairs bathroom, is a big job, and replacing like for like is not cheap. A repair keeps it in place. Our bath repair starts from £95. There are no surprise extras on the day. What we quote from your pictures is what you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.
Why us?
- Colour-matched on site
- Most jobs done in one visit
- We’ll tell you if it’s not worth repairing
- One-year guarantee on every repair

Should I try a DIY kit first?
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, then guarantee it for a year.
For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.

What we’re called out for in Carradale
Dropped items cause the majority of chips, and a lot happen during bathroom refits. Acrylic baths crack for a different reason: poor support underneath, so the bath flexes when it’s full.
It’s worth getting a quote if you see:
- Rust by the waste and overflow
- Damage beneath the taps
- Chips caused by builders
- Cracks in an acrylic bath

Materials and what they mean for the repair
Composite and resin
Composite baths are dense and solid, and often freestanding. Chips and scratches are filled and matched, in much the same way.
Pressed steel
Under the enamel of a steel bath is thin metal. Once a chip exposes it, rust follows quickly, so the metal is treated and sealed before the repair.
Carradale questions
Is a bath repair permanent?
It should, as long as the bath is firm and the area was prepared well. It’s covered by our one-year guarantee.
Do you cover the whole of Argyll and Bute?
The whole UK, including all of Argyll and Bute. Send your postcode with your pictures and we will offer you dates.
Is the work guaranteed?
All our work carries our one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.
Is a cracked acrylic bath repairable?
Normally, yes, if we can reach the underside to reinforce it. Take off the bath panel and check, or send us a photo.
Are there extra charges for Carradale?
There is no separate call-out charge. Your fixed quote includes everything.
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.
Something went through my bath. Can it be fixed?
Typically, yes, if we can reach behind it. The hole is backed, filled and refinished to match.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Of course, and it generally saves money. Send pictures of everything together and we will quote them together.
