Bath repair in Gallowgate, done in place
A damaged bath does not have to mean a new bathroom. We fill the damage, shape it to the curve of the bath and refinish it, mixing the colour on the day so the repair is hard to spot. We are frequently asked to fix scuffs and scratches in the surface and damage beneath the taps, across whirlpool & spa baths, pressed steel enamel and cast iron enamel.
Whatever the size of the job, it’s backed by a one-year guarantee.

Should I try a DIY kit first?
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.
A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.
Gallowgate: your questions answered
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
Most of the time. Let us know what was used before.
Can landlords book you?
Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as homeowners.
Does someone need to be in?
Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time that suits you.
What does bath repair cost?
Prices start from £95. The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from pictures. You will get a fixed figure before you book.
Can pets and children be at home?
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.
Can you repair several things at once?
Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Send pictures of everything you’d like done.
I tried a repair kit. Can you fix it?
Yes. We remove the old filler and start again. Mention it when you send photos.
Will the repair last?
It should, as long as the bath is firm and the area was prepared well. It’s covered by our one-year guarantee.
How the visit works
There is not much you need to do on the day. Show us the job, point us to the room, and we will get on with it. The job generally runs to a few hours, depending on the damage, including clearing up.
- First, we check the damage against your photos and agree the plan.
- Loose enamel, rust and dirt are removed so the repair can bond.
- The damage is filled in layers and shaped to the curve of the bath.
- We tint the finish by hand to match the bath.
- Finally, it’s polished to match the shine and left to cure.
Before we arrive
- Ensure the room can be ventilated
- Tell us about parking, stairs or access
- Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
How to get a price
For most jobs, pictures are all we need to give you a price. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we will send back a fixed quote and some dates.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Gallowgate
Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover. Several plots can be done in one visit.

Do you need bath repair in Gallowgate?
The usual cause is something heavy dropped into the bath, and a lot happen during bathroom refits. Cracks in acrylic have a different cause: poor support underneath, so the bath flexes when it’s full.
It’s worth getting a quote if you see:
- Chips under the taps
- A failed DIY repair that’s discoloured or lifting
- Cracks in an acrylic bath
- Deep scratches in acrylic

Aftercare tips
To keep it looking its best:
- Rinse the bath after use, especially in hard water areas
- Avoid scourers, wire wool and gritty cream cleaners
- Store metal items away from the bath
- Clean with warm water and a mild detergent
Treat the repaired area like the rest of the bath: a soft cloth and washing-up liquid is all it needs. Keep scouring pads and gritty cleaners away from it.
Rust spreads under enamel faster than most people expect. Left for months, a small chip can grow into a large rust patch, so it pays to deal with it early.
How we price bath repair
Repairs from £95. Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we take into account:
- How many items we do on one visit
- What kind of damage it is
- The material
- How easy the damage is to reach
Instead of hourly rates, we fix the price before we start. Damage, material and access decide it, and combining items on one visit brings it down.

To get a price, send a couple of photos through our quote form or ring us. We’ll tell you honestly whether it can be repaired.
Repair or replace in Gallowgate?
Cast iron baths especially are worth keeping: they’re very heavy to remove, especially upstairs, and a like-for-like replacement can be expensive. A repair keeps it in place. Our bath repair starts from £95. What it costs depends on the type and amount of damage, what it’s made of and how many jobs we combine into one visit. You get a fixed price from your photos, so you know the cost before you book.
Why us?
- We leave the room as we found it
- One-year guarantee on every repair
- Nothing taken out or refitted
- Work done at your home or business

Repairs by material
Acrylic
Acrylic baths are moulded sheet reinforced underneath. They do not rust, but they can crack, scratch or be holed, and cracks need support from behind to stay fixed.
Pressed steel
Steel baths and trays have a thin metal body under the enamel. Once a chip exposes it, rust follows quickly, so the metal is treated and sealed before the repair.
