About our bath repair in Glenlochar
Whether your bath is steel, cast iron or acrylic, we can repair it. The method changes with the material: metal baths need any rust dealt with first, and acrylic cracks need support from behind. Whether it’s cracks in an acrylic bath and impact holes in acrylic, we can usually put it right, whatever the material.
A one-year guarantee comes with the work, just as it does everywhere we cover.

When a repair isn’t the answer
In fairness, there are a few things a repair will not fix:
- Flexing caused by a failed cradle or loose feet
- Metal that has corroded all the way through
- Water coming from the waste or taps rather than the bath
If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think before booking.

Do you need bath repair in Glenlochar?
Baths take more knocks than people expect: everyday items get dropped into it all the time, and taps and wastes are tightened against the surface. Sooner or later, most baths pick up a chip.
Most people get in touch when they notice something like this:
- Impact holes in acrylic
- Hairline or through cracks in acrylic
- Chips along the edge of the bath
- Rust by the waste and overflow
Before you book anyone
- How the colour is matched
- What preparation is included
- How to care for the finish
- What protection goes down before work starts
Repair or replace: which is better?
People often assume a cracked or chipped bath has to come out. In most cases it doesn’t: a proper repair gives it years more use, without the cost and upheaval of replacing it. Our bath repair starts from £95. Instead of hourly rates, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and doing several items at once reduces it.
What you get with us
- Every repair guaranteed for a year
- Most jobs done in one visit

What your bath is made of matters
Acrylic
Acrylic feels warm and is light, but it relies on good support. Cracks are strengthened from behind before the front is finished.
Cast iron
A cast iron bath is heavy enough that most people never want to move it. Only the enamel surface wears or chips, and that is the part we put right.
Common questions in Glenlochar
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.
What do you need from me?
Just photos, your postcode and a contact number. On the day, we only need access to the room.
What happens next?
You get a fixed quote and available dates. If anything’s unclear, we will ask for another photo.
How long does the repair take to cure?
Normally within a day, depending on the repair.
Can you repair something that’s been repaired before?
Normally, yes. We remove the old repair before doing a new one, so mention it when you send photos.
Can you repair a chip on a coloured bath?
Yes. The colour is mixed on site to suit your bath, including pastel and older colours.
Can you repair a crack in an acrylic bath?
Typically, yes, if we can reach the underside to reinforce it. Check under the bath panel, or send us a photo.
Does someone need to be in?
We need someone to let us in. After that, you can carry on with your day.

Advice
What bath repair costs
Repairs from £95. A fixed quote means you know the cost before you book. We look at:
- The colour and finish to match
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- Access to the area
- The material and finish
There are no surprise extras on the day. The price we quote from your pictures is the price you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.
Quotes from your photos
Before you send photos, these tips help us give you a firm price:
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- A photo taken from further back
- Any details about the material
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
The quickest way to a price is to send a couple of photos using our quote form or ring us. We will tell you honestly whether it can be repaired.
DIY kit or professional repair?
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.
