FAQs for Gairloch
How quickly can you book me in?
That depends on our diary for your area. Send pictures with your postcode and we’ll reply with the earliest dates.
Is a holed acrylic bath repairable?
Typically, yes, if we can reach behind it. The hole is backed, filled and refinished to match.
Can you repair something that’s been repaired before?
Yes, regularly. It can add a little time, which we include in the quote.
What happens after I send photos?
We check the damage, the material and your postcode, then reply with a quote with dates.
What areas do you cover?
We cover the entire UK, including Gairloch and the rest of Highland. Send your postcode with your photos and we will confirm dates.
Are there extra charges for Gairloch?
We don’t add a call-out fee. The fixed quote covers the visit and the work.
I tried a repair kit. Can you fix it?
Regularly. The old material comes out, any rust is treated, then we repair it properly.
Will you leave a mess?
Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and tidy up before we leave.
About our bath repair in Gairloch
We repair just the damaged spot and colour-match it to the bath, which costs far less than replacing a fitted bath. You can normally use the bath the next day. We work on acrylic, whirlpool & spa baths and pressed steel enamel, and the jobs we see most are holes from dropped items and rust by the waste and overflow.
Your repair is guaranteed for a year, as with every job we do.

When a repair is not the answer
Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair will not do:
- A bath that moves underfoot, until its support is fixed
- Rust that has eaten right through a steel bath
- Acrylic cracks with no access behind them
Send us pictures and we will tell you honestly.

Repairing versus replacing in Gairloch
A repair makes sense whenever the damage is localised. It’s a fraction of the cost of a new bath and fitting, it takes one visit, and nothing else in the room changes. Prices start from £95. A few things move the price: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.
Why us?
- Rooms protected and left tidy
- CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited
- Straight answers about what a repair can do
- Colours mixed by hand to suit your surface

What bath repair costs
Repairs from £95. There is no charge for travel to Gairloch. The price comes down to:
- How many areas need work
- Whether we combine several jobs
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- How easy the damage is to reach
Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. Damage, material and access decide it.
Getting a price from pictures
Most quotes are done from pictures alone. To help us price it:
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- The material, if you know it
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- Details of any past repairs
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 price back. Quotes are free and no obligation.
How it works
Nothing needs to be moved out of the room. We bring everything we need with us, put protection down and start once you are happy with the plan. It normally takes two to three hours for most chips, and you are welcome to carry on with your day while we work.
- Dust sheets and masking go down around the bath.
- The damaged area is cleaned, keyed and degreased.
- Filler goes in and is sanded flush once it has set.
- Colour and gloss are matched to the surrounding surface.
- We clear up and give you the curing time, normally until the following day.
Getting ready for the visit
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
- Open a window if you can
- Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
How to get a price

DIY kit or professional repair?
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is usually cheaper.
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.
Keeping it looking good
So the finish stays in good condition:
- Stick to mild cleaners and a soft cloth
- Put a towel in the bath if you’re working above it
- Check that an acrylic bath doesn’t move when you stand in it
- Keep metal cans and razors off the surface
Look after the repair the same way as the bath: warm water, washing-up liquid and a soft cloth. Avoid scourers and gritty cream cleaners.
Rust under enamel spreads surprisingly quickly. Left for months, a small chip can grow into a large rust patch, so early repair keeps the cost down.

Baths take more knocks than people expect: everyday items get dropped into it all the time, and fittings press hard against the enamel. Sooner or later, most baths pick up a chip.
