Bath Repair in Galltair
Problem with your bath in Galltair? We put it right where it is, mix the colour on the day and back it with a one-year guarantee.
- Repairs from £95
- Snagging damage from a refit
- Deep scratches in acrylic
Looking after it afterwards
To keep it looking its best for years:
- Fix dripping taps early to stop staining and limescale
- Check that an acrylic bath doesn’t move when you stand in it
- Clean with warm water and a mild detergent
- Protect the bath with a towel when doing jobs nearby
Leave the repair to cure for as long as we say before using the bath. After that, gentle cleaning keeps it looking good.
A chip on a metal bath shouldn’t be left. Once water reaches the metal, rust begins, turning a quick repair into a bigger one.
Bath repair at your home in Galltair
A damaged bath does not have to mean a new bathroom. Our technicians fill, shape and refinish the damage, with the colour mixed on site. We work on roll-top & freestanding, cast iron enamel and whirlpool & spa baths, and common reasons people get in touch are damage beneath the taps and rusty patches near the plughole.
You are covered after we leave: each job carries a one-year guarantee, and we explain what it covers before booking.

Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £95. There is no area surcharge for Galltair. The price reflects:
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- How many items we do on one visit
- Unusual colours or finishes
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
There are no surprise extras on the day. The price we quote from your photos is the price you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.
Quotes from your pictures
Most quotes are done from pictures alone. To help us price it:
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- One picture of the entire bath
- Details of any past repairs
- The material, if you know it
We price from photos so you do not have to wait in for a survey. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through, and we’ll come back with a fixed figure.

Repairs by material
Cast iron
Cast iron is heavy and rigid, finished with fired enamel. Chips can rust if left, but the body of the bath lasts a very long time, so it’s always worth repairing.
Composite and resin
Stone resin and composite baths are heavy and solid. Chips and scratches are filled and matched, just like other baths.
When to call us in Galltair
Many chips happen while the bathroom is being fitted. Tradespeople drop tools and tiles into the bath, and the damage isn’t always spotted until later. Snagging repairs like these are a regular job for us.
Get in touch if you’ve noticed:
- Chips on the rim or sides
- A kit repair that didn’t last
- A chip where the taps sit
- Rusty patches near the plughole
Questions to ask before booking
- A fixed quote, and whether VAT is included
- Whether they match the colour on site
- Who turns up on the day
- What prep work is covered

When we would advise against a repair
Not everything can be repaired, and we will tell you before we start. Repairs will not solve:
- A bath worn all over, where resurfacing makes more sense
- Acrylic cracks with no access behind them
- Flexing caused by a failed cradle or loose feet
If in doubt, send photos and we will say what we think.

The process
It’s a tidy, low-fuss visit. We agree the arrival time in advance, cover and mask the work area, and get on with the job, which typically takes two to three hours for most chips. If we find something your pictures didn’t show, we will explain it before carrying on.
- First, we check the damage against your pictures and agree the plan.
- Any rust and loose material comes out, and the area is degreased.
- The damage is filled in layers and shaped to the curve of the bath.
- The colour is tinted by hand until it matches.
- The repair is polished to the same gloss as the bath and left to cure.
How to prepare
- Let us know if it has been repaired before
- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
- Have a window or extractor fan available
Ask for a price
Pricing is simple: take a close-up of the damage and a picture from further back, send them over with your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote. Quotes are free and you are under no obligation.
Advice
Galltair questions
What happens if you find more damage?
We stop, show you and agree any change before carrying on. Nothing extra is done without your say-so.
Do you cover the whole of Highland?
We cover the entire UK, including Galltair and the rest of Highland. Send your postcode with your photos and we’ll confirm dates.
How soon can you come?
We will give you dates with your quote. Tell us if you need it done quickly.
Is there a call-out fee?
No. Our quotes include travel, and we charge the same wherever you are.
Is a repair better than a new one?
In most cases, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. We’ll be honest if it’s not worth it.
What do you need from me?
Use the quote form or ring 0345 017 0787.
Is a bath repair durable?
Yes, if it’s prepared properly and the bath is sound. It carries our one-year guarantee.
Can you fix rust around the plughole?
Yes. We take out the rust and any loose enamel, seal and fill the area, then colour-match the finish.
Repair or replace: which is better?
A repair makes sense whenever the damage is localised. It’s a fraction of the cost of a new bath and fitting, it’s done in one visit, and nothing else in the room changes. Prices start from £95. Set against the cost of replacement, repairing typically costs far less, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. The quote lists exactly what you’re paying for.
