- Repairs from £95

Why repair rather than replace?
A new bath costs more than the bath itself: taking out the old one, plumbing, tiling, a panel and redecorating. A repair is one job, done in one visit. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. There are no surprise extras on the day. What we quote from your pictures is what you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.
What you get with us

Signs you need bath repair in Davidston
Rust usually starts where water sits, by the plughole, beneath dripping taps or in an unrepaired chip. Water on bare metal causes rust that creeps under the surrounding enamel.
Get in touch if you’ve noticed:
- Rust by the waste and overflow
- Chips on the rim or sides
- A chip where the taps sit
- A cracked acrylic bath

Expect a friendly, tidy visit. We agree the arrival time in advance, cover and mask the work area, and get on with the job, which normally takes a few hours. If we find something your photos didn’t show, we will explain it before carrying on.

- We clean, key and degrease the damage.
- Filler goes in and is sanded flush once it has set.
- We match both the colour and the shine.
- We tidy up and tell you when the bath can be used, typically the day after.

What your bath is made of matters
Composite and resin
Composite baths are dense and solid, and frequently freestanding. Chips and scratches can be filled and colour matched, just like other baths.
Pressed steel
Steel baths and trays have a thin metal body under the enamel. Exposed steel rusts quickly, so we treat and seal the metal before filling.
Looking after it afterwards
After the repair has cured, a few habits help it last:
- Clean with warm water and a mild detergent
- Store metal items away from the bath
- Rinse the bath after use, especially in hard water areas
- Fix dripping taps early to stop staining and limescale
Do not leave razors, cans or hair grips in the bath, as they can leave rust marks. A dripping tap should be fixed early, too.
Rust under enamel spreads surprisingly quickly. A chip the size of a fingernail can become a much larger patch if it’s left for months, so early repair keeps the cost down.
Landlords, agents and businesses in Davidston
Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover, saving last-minute replacements. Several plots can be done in one visit to keep costs down.
Letting agents frequently 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.
How we price bath repair
Prices start from £95. Each job gets its own fixed quote. These are the things that affect it:
- How much damage there is
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- Whether we combine several jobs
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
Every job is a little different, so we price each one individually. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all make a difference, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.
Getting a price from photos
Good photos mean an accurate price. Here’s what helps:
- One picture of the whole bath
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- Any details about the material
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
Pricing is simple: take a close-up of the damage and a picture from further back, send them over with your postcode, and you will get a fixed quote back. There’s no charge for the quote and no obligation.

Davidston: your questions answered
Is there a call-out fee?
No. Our quotes include travel, with the same prices everywhere we work.
Can you repair a hole in a bath?
In most cases. Photos of the hole and the underside help us check.
How do I book?
Photos of the damage, a photo of the whole bath and your postcode. After that, we just agree a date.
Is repairing better than replacing?
Generally, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. We’ll be honest if it’s not worth it.
What happens after I send pictures?
We come back with a fixed quote, plus dates. There is no obligation to book.
It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?
Generally, yes. Tell us what was done before.
Can rust on a bath be repaired?
Yes, very often. We take it back to sound metal, seal it, fill it and match the colour.
What if the damage is worse than the pictures show?
It’s rare, but if it happens we talk to you first. The price only changes if you agree.
