Bath repair in Earlston without replacing anything
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. If you’re dealing with an old repair that has yellowed or come loose and hairline or through cracks in acrylic, we can help, on roll-top & freestanding, pressed steel enamel and acrylic alike.
All our work comes with a one-year guarantee.

Should I try a DIY kit first?
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully and work on a clean, dry surface, and give it the full curing time. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, and the work is guaranteed.
Repair or replace: which is better?
If the rest of the bath is in good condition, a repair is almost always the better choice. It costs less, takes less time and causes far less upheaval, and you keep the bath you chose. If the entire surface is worn, re-enamelling may make more sense, and we will tell you. Our bath repair starts from £95. It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Send pictures and you will get a fixed figure.

A repair isn’t right for every job, including:

- Wear across the whole surface, which needs re-enamelling
- Flexing caused by a failed cradle or loose feet

Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Send photos and we’ll give you the exact figure.
Quotes from your photos
Before you send pictures, these tips help us give you a firm price:
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- A picture taken from further back

Email us photos of the damage and one of the whole item, with your TD4 postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price.
Work for landlords and builders
Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.
If you manage property in Earlston, we will quote for several properties at once. Just send pictures for each address and we will price them together.
Earlston questions
Do the materials smell?
A little, depending on the job. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum, and it soon fades.
I rent my home. Can I book you?
We are happy to deal with the tenant, landlord or agent. Just ensure the landlord agrees.
Is there a call-out fee?
There is no separate call-out charge. Your fixed quote includes everything.
Do you repair coloured baths?
Yes. We mix the colour on the day to match, including pastel and older colours.
When can you do it?
Your quote comes with available dates. Tell us if you need it done quickly.
Does someone need to be in?
Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. You don’t need to watch us work.
Can you repair a hole in a bath?
Frequently, if there is access underneath. The hole is backed, filled and refinished to match.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Send photos of everything you’d like done.
Different materials, different repairs
Pressed steel
Steel baths and trays have a thin metal body under the enamel. Exposed steel rusts quickly, so the metal is treated and sealed before the repair.
Composite and resin
Stone resin and composite baths are heavy and solid. Chips and scratches can be filled and colour-matched, in much the same way.

How it works
When we visit, we arrive at the time we have agreed, cover the area with dust sheets and masking, and set to work. The job usually takes a few hours, depending on the damage. We tidy up before we leave and let you know when you can use it again.
- 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.
- Finish coats go on, then the repair is polished to blend in.
- Once it has cured, generally by the next day, the bath is ready to use.
Before we arrive
- Tell us about parking, stairs or access
- Ensure the area is dry
- Let us know if it has been repaired before
