Bath chip & crack repair in Charlestown of Aberlour, Moray
We travel to Charlestown of Aberlour for chip and crack repairs to enamel, acrylic and cast iron baths. Nothing is taken out, and the work is guaranteed.
- Repairs from £95
- Chips under the taps
- Damage done while the bathroom was being fitted
Keeping it looking good
To keep it looking its best for years:
- A dripping tap stains enamel, so fix it early
- Don’t leave razors or cans standing in the bath
- Use a soft cloth and washing-up liquid for everyday cleaning
- Rinse it down after each bath
A repaired bath needs no special treatment, just sensible cleaning. Avoid bleach-based and gritty cleaners.
Until we visit, a strip of waterproof tape over the damage helps, so water cannot get in. Remove it before the repair.

Work for landlords and builders
Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, putting right damage done during fitting. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.
For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover, saving last-minute replacements. We can visit several plots in one trip.
When a repair is not the answer
A repair is not always the answer, and we’d rather say so up front. Repairs won’t solve:
- Metal that has corroded all the way through
- Acrylic cracks with no access behind them
- A bath that moves underfoot, until its support is fixed
If in doubt, send photos and we’ll say what we think.
What we work on

Charlestown of Aberlour: your questions answered
When can I have a bath again?
Most baths can be used the following day. We confirm the time before we leave.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
Typically, when the rest is in good condition. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. If replacing would be better, we’ll say so.
Something went through my bath. Can it be fixed?
Frequently, if there’s access underneath. We back the hole, fill it and refinish the surface.
Can you repair something that is been repaired before?
Usually, yes. We remove the old repair before doing a new one, so let us know about it.
Do I have to be there?
Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time that suits you.
Are you accredited?
Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.
I tried a repair kit. Can you fix it?
Yes. We take out the old repair and do it properly. Mention it when you send photos.
Can you quote from photos?
Normally, yes. Clear photos let us give you a fixed quote without visiting.
Do you need bath repair in Charlestown of Aberlour?
Baths take more knocks than people expect: bottles, shower heads and razors are dropped every day, and taps and wastes are tightened against the surface. Over time, chips and rust spots are almost inevitable.
Send us a photo if you notice any of these:
- Rust spots around the plughole
- Chips on the rim or sides
- Snagging damage from a refit
- A cracked acrylic bath
What to look for in a quote
- How long the guarantee is and what it covers
- Whether they match the colour on site
- What protection goes down before work starts
- Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT
Can I fix it myself?
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.
For a hairline mark somewhere you will never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.
How it works
There’s not much you need to do on the day. Let us in and show us the room, and we’ll get on with it. The job generally runs to a few hours, depending on the damage, including clearing up.
- We start by looking at the damage and confirming the plan with you.
- Loose enamel, rust and dirt are removed so the repair can bond.
- We build up the filler in layers, shaping it to the bath.
- The colour is tinted by hand until it matches.
- Finally, it’s polished to match the shine and left to cure.
How to prepare
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat

Advice
Repair or replace in Charlestown of Aberlour?

What it costs depends on how much damage there is and what kind, the material and how many jobs we combine into one visit. We give a fixed price from your photos, so you know the cost before booking.
