Bath repair in Gartly without replacing anything
Most bath damage, from chips and cracks to rust spots and holes, is repaired in place. Nothing is unplumbed, your tiles stay as they are, and the finish is matched to the rest of the bath. Typical jobs include a failed DIY repair that’s discoloured or lifting and a chipped rim or side, across acrylic, roll-top & freestanding and whirlpool & spa baths.
Every job is backed for twelve months. If something goes wrong with the work, we come back.

What bath repair costs
Repairs from £95. We give every job a fixed price from photos. These are the things that affect it:
- The material and finish
- How easy the damage is to reach
- How much damage there is
- How many items we do on one visit
Every job is a little different, so we price each one individually. The size and type of damage, the material and access all play a part, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.
How to get a fixed quote
It only takes a minute to photograph the damage. Try to send:
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- Something in shot to show the size
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- One sharp close-up of the damage
For most jobs, photos are all we need to give you a price. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we will send back a fixed quote and some dates.
Different materials, different repairs
Pressed steel
Pressed steel is thinner and lighter, with an enamel finish like cast iron. Chips rust quickly on steel, especially around the waste, so repair chips early.
Cast iron
Cast iron baths are thick and very strong, finished with fired enamel. A chip down to the iron can rust, but the bath itself lasts for generations, so it’s always worth repairing.
How to care for the repair
Once the work has cured, treat it gently:
- Get any new chip repaired before it rusts
- Keep abrasive pads and gritty cleaners away from the bath
- Give the bath a quick rinse after use
- Ensure an acrylic bath is firm underfoot
Clean with mild, non-abrasive cleaners and try not to drop heavy bottles on the repair. Get any new chip seen to quickly, before rust sets in.
Tape over a fresh chip or crack until it’s repaired, to keep water out. Take it off before we arrive.
Common questions in Gartly
When can you do it?
We’ll give you dates with your quote. Tell us if you need it done quickly.
Do you charge for travel?
We do not add a call-out fee. The fixed quote covers the visit and the work.
What happens after I send photos?
You’ll get a fixed quote back, generally with dates to choose from. There’s no obligation to book.
Can you redo an old repair?
Regularly. The old material comes out, any rust is treated, then we repair it properly.
Do you come to Gartly?
Yes, we do. We send a technician to Gartly for every job, and the price is the same as everywhere else.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
Normally, if the item is otherwise sound. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. We’ll tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Of course, and it usually saves money. Send pictures of everything together and you will get one combined price.
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
Usually, yes. The old repair comes out first, so mention it when you send pictures.
What we’re called out for in Gartly
Dropped items cause the majority of chips, and building work is a common culprit. Acrylic baths crack for a different reason: poor support underneath, so the bath flexes when it’s full.
Send us a photo if you notice any of these:
- A hole punched through by something heavy
- Deep scratches in acrylic
- Chips under the taps
- A cracked acrylic bath

Work for landlords and builders
Letting agents often send us photos straight from the inventory. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.
Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Gartly use us as well as homeowners. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it costs much less than replacing.
What a repair cannot fix
To be straight with you, there are a few things a repair will not fix:
- Leaks from the waste or overflow fittings (a plumber’s job)
- A bath that moves underfoot, until its support is fixed
- Cracks in acrylic we cannot reach from underneath
Not sure? Send photos and we will give you a straight answer.
