Findochty questions

What if the damage is worse than the photos show?

Your quote covers the damage in the photos. If there’s more, we’ll tell you before starting.

Do you hold any accreditations?

We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.

Is it safe with children and pets around?

We ask you to keep children and pets out of the room while we work and until it has cured. The rest of the house is unaffected.

How do I book?

A close-up, a wider photo and your postcode. Then we’ll agree a date.

Is a bath repair durable?

It should, as long as the bath is firm and the area was prepared well. It carries our one-year guarantee.

Is my repair covered?

Yes, for a year. If there is a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.

How do I get a price for bath repair in Findochty?

Repairs from £95. Every job gets a fixed quote based on pictures of the damage. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo and your postcode.

Can rust on a bath be repaired?

Yes, very often. The rust is cut back to clean metal and sealed before we fill and finish it.

What affects the price in Findochty

Prices start from £95. You will not pay by the hour. The price depends on:

  • The material
  • Access to the area
  • What kind of damage it is
  • Unusual colours or finishes

A repair normally costs much less than people expect, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Send photos and we’ll give you the exact figure.

How to get a fixed quote

Before you send pictures, these tips help us give you a firm price:

  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings

If you’re in Findochty and want a price, the easiest route is photos: one close up, one from further back, plus your postcode. You’ll get a fixed quote with dates to choose from.

Repair or replace in Findochty?

Replacing a bath rarely stops at the bath: the tiles sitting on the rim tend to break, the panel may not fit the new one, and the plumbing has to be disconnected and refitted. A repair skips all of it. Prices start from £95. A few things move the price: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

What you get with us

  • Everything repaired in place
  • A fixed quote before you book
  • We will tell you if it’s not worth repairing
  • We leave the room as we found it

Do you need bath repair in Findochty?

The usual cause is something heavy dropped into the bath, and building work is a common culprit. Cracks in acrylic have a different cause: poor support underneath, so the bath flexes when it’s full.

Customers normally contact us about:

  • Impact holes in acrylic
  • Snagging damage from a refit
  • A chipped rim or side
  • Rust by the waste and overflow

Before booking anyone

  • How the room is protected while they work
  • Whether the price covers travel
  • When it can be used again
  • Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price

Choosing a repair company

For landlords and businesses

We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Findochty as well as householders. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it typically costs far less than a refit.

Hospitality businesses need rooms back in use quickly, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We can work around your bookings.

Can I fix it myself?

What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.

For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, a professional repair is worth it.

Honest limits

Some jobs aren’t right for a repair, for example:

  • Acrylic cracks with no access behind them
  • A bath worn all over, where resurfacing makes more sense
  • Leaks from the waste or overflow fittings (a plumber’s job)

If in doubt, send photos and we’ll say what we think before you book.

Materials we work on in Findochty

  • Roll-top & freestanding
  • Pressed steel enamel
  • Acrylic
  • Whirlpool & spa baths
  • Cast iron enamel

The process

We begin by going over the job with you, so there are no surprises. After that, protection goes down around the work area and the work begins. Allow a morning or an afternoon, and we’ll tell you if anything changes.

  1. Dust sheets and masking go down around the bath.
  2. We clean, key and degrease the damage, and any rust is treated.
  3. We fill it, let it set, then sand it flush.
  4. Colour and gloss are matched to the surrounding surface.
  5. We clear up and give you the curing time, normally until the day after.

How to prepare

  • Let us know about parking or access
  • Let us know if it has been repaired before
  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day

Repairs by material

Cast iron

Cast iron baths are so heavy that repairing in place makes obvious sense. The enamel is the part that wears or chips, and that’s what we repair.

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.
