Bath repair near Crimond

Prices and what affects them

Prices start from £95. There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price depends on:

  • How much damage there is
  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • The colour and finish to match
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear

Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

Getting a price from photos

Phone photos are fine. Just make sure we can see:

  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • A picture taken from further back

No survey visit is needed: we price from photos. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through, and we will come back with a fixed figure.

Bath repair in Crimond, done in place

We repair enamelled steel, cast iron and acrylic baths. The method changes with the material: rust is treated on metal baths, while cracks in acrylic are reinforced from underneath. Our repair technicians work on roll-top & freestanding, whirlpool & spa baths and pressed steel enamel, and people most often call us about a chip where the taps sit and scuffs and scratches in the surface.

A one-year guarantee comes as standard, so you’re covered after the visit.

Landlord and trade work in Crimond

If you manage property in Crimond, we’ll quote for several properties at once. Just send photos for each address and we’ll price them together.

Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Crimond use us as well as homeowners. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it normally costs far less than a refit.

Keeping it looking good

Nothing complicated is needed, just a few sensible habits:

  • Keep metal cans and razors off the surface
  • Don’t leave a fresh chip for long
  • Clean with warm water and a mild detergent
  • Fix dripping taps early to stop staining and limescale

Clean with mild, non-abrasive cleaners and avoid dropping heavy items on the repaired area. Deal with new chips early, before rust can start.

A chip on a metal bath shouldn’t be left. Water gets to the metal and rust starts, turning a quick repair into a bigger one.

What we do, step by step

On the day, the technician arrives at the agreed time, protects the room with dust sheets and masking and gets started. Expect it to take a few hours, depending on the damage. We tidy up before we leave and let you know when you can use it again.

  1. We start by looking at the damage and confirming the plan with you.
  2. Any rust and loose material comes out, and the area is degreased.
  3. The damage is filled in layers and shaped to the curve of the bath.
  4. We tint the finish by hand to match the bath.
  5. The repair is polished to the same gloss as the bath and left to cure.

Preparing for the visit

  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible

What we cannot put right

Before you book, it’s worth knowing the limits:

  • Water coming from the waste or taps rather than the bath

If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think.

  • Cast iron enamel

DIY kit or professional repair?

A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it won’t stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.

If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, ensure the area is clean and completely dry, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.
