DIY repairs versus a professional job
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is typically cheaper.
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
Bath repair in Clynder without replacing anything
You don’t need a new bath because of a chip. Our repair technicians fill, shape and refinish the damage, mixing the colour on the day so the repair is hard to spot. We are often asked to fix snagging damage from a refit and rusty patches near the plughole, in pressed steel enamel, roll-top & freestanding and acrylic.
The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If something is not right in that time, we come back and put it right.

How to look after the repair
After the repair has cured, a few habits help it last:
- Give the bath a quick rinse after use
- Stick to mild cleaners and a soft cloth
- Don’t leave a fresh chip for long
- Store metal items away from the bath
Don’t leave razors, cans or hair grips in the bath, as they can leave rust marks. A dripping tap should be fixed early, too.
Avoid standing in a cracked acrylic bath until it’s fixed. Each time it flexes, the crack grows, and water can get through to the floor below.
Your questions about bath repair in Clynder
Do you repair coloured baths?
Yes. We mix the colour on the day to match, including pastel and older colours.
Something went through my bath. Can it be fixed?
Frequently, if there is access underneath. The hole is backed, filled and refinished to match.
Can you price it without visiting?
Usually, yes. Clear photos let us give you a fixed quote without visiting.
Are you accredited?
We are accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.
Do you do work for letting agents?
Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as householders across Argyll and Bute.
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
Yes, but check with your landlord or agent first. Many landlords are happy for a repair to be arranged before the end of a tenancy.
How invisible is a bath 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.
Is a repair better than a new one?
Usually, if the item is otherwise sound. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. We’ll tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.
When to call us in Clynder
Nearly all the chips we see start with something being dropped: a shampoo bottle, a shower head, a tile or a tool during a refit. On steel and cast iron baths, a chip that reaches the metal will start to rust.
Signs it’s time to call us include:
- Scuffs and scratches in the surface
- Rusty patches near the plughole
- Chips on the rim or sides
- Damage done while the bathroom was being fitted

- What prep work is covered
- What protection goes down before work starts
- What aftercare is recommended
Work for landlords and builders
We are used to working with agents and managing companies. Send the address, photos and access details and we will handle the rest.
Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which is easier on the people living there.
When we would advise against a repair
A few problems are outside what a surface repair can do:
- Metal that has corroded all the way through
- Cracks in parts of an acrylic bath we cannot get to from below
- A bath that flexes because its feet or cradle have failed (that needs fixing first)
Not sure? Send photos and we’ll give you a straight answer before you book.

What happens on the day
Here’s how a visit typically runs: we arrive on time, protect everything around the work area, do the job and tidy away. Allow two to three hours for most chips. Before leaving, we tell you when it can be used and how to care for it.
- First, the area is cleaned and any loose enamel or rust is removed.
- The chip or crack is filled, then sanded level with the bath.
- We tint the finish on the day to suit your bath’s shade of white or colour.
- We build up the finish and polish it into the surrounding enamel.
- Once it has cured, typically by the next day, the bath is ready to use.
How to prepare
- Tell us about parking, stairs or access
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
- Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing

How we price bath repair
Repairs from £95. A fixed quote means you know the cost before booking. We take into account:
- The type of damage
- How much damage there is
- How hard the colour is to match
- How easy the damage is to reach
The price depends on the type and amount of damage, the material and how many items we do on one visit. We give a fixed quote from your photos, so there are no surprises on the day.
Send pictures for a quote
You can normally get a fixed price without us visiting. To make it quick:
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- Any details about the material
- Details of any past repairs
To get a price, send two or three pictures through our quote form or call us. We’ll tell you honestly if a repair is the right fix.
Should you replace it?
Think about the hidden costs of a new bath: removal and disposal, plumbing, a new panel, tiling and decorating. With a repair, it’s one visit and one price. Prices start from £95. A repair usually costs much less than people expect, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Send photos and we’ll give you the exact figure.
