Bath repair at your home in Edzell

A typical bath repair is a few hours’ work, and you can generally bathe again the following day. There’s no need to book a plumber or tiler, because the bath does not move. Whether it’s an old repair that has yellowed or come loose and chips along the edge of the bath, we can help.

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

How it works

Visits start with a quick look at the job together, so you know exactly what we are doing. Then the area is sheeted and masked and the work begins. Allow a few hours, and we will tell you if anything changes.

  1. First, we check the damage against your pictures and agree the plan.
  2. Loose enamel, rust and dirt are removed so the repair can bond.
  3. The damage is filled in layers and shaped to the curve of the bath.
  4. The colour is tinted by hand until it matches.
  5. The repair is polished to the same gloss as the bath and left to cure.

Before we arrive

  • Make sure the room can be ventilated
  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access

A repair is not always the answer, and we will tell you before we start. We cannot fix:

  • Cracks in acrylic we cannot reach from underneath
  • A bath that moves underfoot, until its support is fixed
  • Metal that has corroded all the way through

Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly.

Repairs by material

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.

Cast iron

A cast iron bath is heavy enough that most people never want to move it. The enamel is the part that wears or chips, and that’s what we repair.

What affects the price in Edzell

Prices start from £95. We give every job a fixed quote from pictures. This is what makes a difference:

  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • The material
  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • Whether we combine several jobs

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. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

Quotes from your pictures

Phone photos are fine, there’s no need for anything special. Make sure they show:

  • One picture of the entire bath
  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • Something in shot to show the size
  • Where you are, by postcode

Pricing is simple: snap the damage close up and then the whole item, send them to us with your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed price. Quotes are free and you’re under no obligation.

DIY kit or professional repair?

A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.

We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and then the old filler has to be removed first.

Edzell: your questions answered

Is a cracked acrylic bath repairable?

Normally, yes, as long as we can get to the back of the crack to support it. Check under the bath panel, or send us a photo.

Are there extra charges for Edzell?

No. Our quotes include travel, with the same prices everywhere we work.

Are you a vetted contractor?

Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.

Do you cover the whole of Angus?

We cover the entire UK, including Edzell and the rest of Angus. Just include your postcode and we’ll confirm dates.

Can you repair something that’s been repaired before?

Yes, we often do. Removing the old work can add time, and that’s in the quote.

What does bath repair cost?

Prices start from £95. The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from photos. You know the full cost before anything is booked.

Can I get a quote without a visit?

Typically, yes. Clear photos let us give you a fixed quote without visiting.

Can tenants book a repair?

Yes, though it’s best to check with your landlord first. Many landlords are happy for a repair to be arranged.

Looking after it afterwards

After the repair has cured, a few habits help it last:

  • Do not scrub with anything abrasive
  • Use a soft cloth and washing-up liquid for everyday cleaning
  • Give the bath a quick rinse after use
  • Do not leave razors or cans standing in the bath

In the first few days, avoid putting weight or bottles on the repair. After that, clean it as you would the rest of the bath.

If water is getting through a crack, stop using the bath until it’s repaired. Water under the bath can damage the floor and the ceiling below.

What we’re called out for in Edzell

Glass and heavy bottles cause more chips than anything else, closely followed by shower heads. Fittings cause damage too: water collects there, so chips nearby rust quickly.

Send us a picture if you notice any of these:

  • Rusty patches near the plughole
  • Hairline or through cracks in acrylic
  • Chips caused by builders
  • An old repair that has yellowed or come loose

What your quote should include

  • If travel is included in the price
  • Who will actually do the work
  • Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?
  • What happens if the damage is worse than the pictures show
