Bath chip & crack repair in Dalton, South Lanarkshire
Chip and crack repairs to enamel, acrylic and cast iron baths at your home in Dalton, with a one-year guarantee on every repair.
- Repairs from £95
- Snagging damage from a refit
- Rust by the waste and overflow
Aftercare tips
So the finish stays in good condition:
- Get any new chip repaired before it rusts
- Stick to mild cleaners and a soft cloth
- Protect the bath with a towel when doing jobs nearby
- Fix dripping taps early to stop staining and limescale
Treat the repaired area like the rest of the bath: warm water, washing-up liquid and a soft cloth. Avoid scourers and gritty cream cleaners.
A small chip is a quick job. Leave them and they collect dirt, stain and, on metal baths, rust, so early repair saves time and money.
How we handle bath repair in Dalton
Most bath damage, from chips and cracks to rust spots and holes, can be repaired with the bath left exactly where it is. Nothing is unplumbed, the tiles are not touched, and the repaired area is colour matched so it blends in. Typical jobs include scratches you can feel with a fingernail and a hole punched through by something heavy, on pressed steel enamel, whirlpool & spa baths and roll-top & freestanding.
You are covered after we leave: each job carries a one-year guarantee, and we explain what it covers before booking.

DIY repairs versus a professional job
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair will not last.
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it does not stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.
What bath repair costs
Prices start from £95. We price every job individually, from your photos. The main factors are:
- The size and number of damaged areas
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- Doing more than one item at once
- Unusual colours or finishes
We charge the same wherever you are, with no extra for Dalton. What changes the price is the job itself: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.
Getting a price from photos
You can take the pictures on your phone. Make sure they show:
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
Call 0345 017 0787 or use the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the whole bath, we can give you a fixed price.
FAQs for Dalton
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.
Is a bath repair durable?
Done properly, a repair lasts for years, and ours come with a one-year guarantee. Gentle cleaning helps it last.
When can you do it?
It depends on the time of year and where you are. We’ll offer you dates when we send your quote.
Do you cover Dalton?
Yes. We work across the UK and travel to Dalton and the rest of South Lanarkshire. Send us pictures for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
Do you cover the whole of South Lanarkshire?
All of South Lanarkshire, and the rest of the UK. There’s no extra charge for travel.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
Normally, if the item is otherwise sound. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. We’ll tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.
Can you price it without visiting?
Yes, almost always. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed quote.
What happens if you find more damage?
We will show you and explain before doing anything extra. Nothing extra is done without your say-so.
Different materials, different repairs
Acrylic
An acrylic bath is a moulded sheet strengthened from below. They do not rust, but they can crack, scratch or be holed, and a crack only stays repaired if it’s supported underneath.
Composite and resin
Stone resin and composite baths are heavy and solid, and often freestanding. Chips and scratches are filled and matched, in much the same way.
Should you replace it?
Think about the hidden costs of a new bath: taking out the old one, plumbing, tiling, a panel and redecorating. With a repair, it’s one visit and one price. Prices start from £95. Rather than charging by the hour, we price the entire job up front. Damage, material and access decide it.
Why us?
- Dust sheets down, tidy finish
- Colour-matched on site
- Straight answers about what a repair can do
- No extra charge for your area

Honest limits
We would rather lose a job than do one that will not last, so here’s what a repair can’t put right:
- A steel bath rusted through
- Flexing caused by a failed cradle or loose feet
- Wear across the entire surface, which needs re-enamelling
Not sure? Send pictures and we will give you a straight answer before you book.
