Bath chip & crack repair in Head of Muir, Falkirk

- Repairs from £95
- Holes from dropped items
- Damage beneath the taps
What your bath is made of matters
Pressed steel
Steel baths and trays have a thin metal body under the enamel. Exposed steel rusts quickly, so we treat and seal the metal before filling.
Composite and resin
Composite baths are dense and solid. Chips and scratches can be filled and colour matched, in much the same way.
Bath repair in Head of Muir without replacing anything
Small damage on a bath is worth repairing early. Exposed metal on enamelled baths soon rusts, and on acrylic, a crack keeps spreading while the bath flexes. A repair stops both. If you are dealing with rust spots around the plughole and an old repair that has yellowed or come loose, we can help, whatever the material.
The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If something isn’t right in that time, we come back and put it right.

Head of Muir questions
Something went through my bath. Can it be fixed?
Typically. Send us a photo of the hole and one from under the bath if you can.
Is there a call-out fee?
We don’t add a call-out fee. The fixed price covers the visit and the work.
Do you cover the whole of Falkirk?
We work UK-wide. Prices don’t change with location.
What do you need from me?
A close-up, a wider photo and your postcode. After that, we just agree a date.
Can you repair a crack in an acrylic bath?
In most cases. We reinforce the crack from behind, then fill and refinish the front, so access behind the panel is important.
Do you work in Head of Muir?
Yes. We cover the whole UK and come to Head of Muir and the rest of Falkirk. Send pictures and we will quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
Can you quote from photos?
Normally, yes. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed quote.
Can you repair a chip on a coloured bath?
Yes. We mix the colour on the day to match, including pastel and older colours.
Can I fix it myself?
For a hairline mark somewhere you will never see, a kit may be enough. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, a professional repair is worth it.
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.

How we price bath repair
Repairs from £95. Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we look at:
- How much damage there is
- How many items we do on one visit
- What kind of damage it is
- The material and finish
The price depends on how much damage there is and what kind, the material and how many items we do on one visit. You get a fixed quote from your pictures, so you know the cost before booking.
Getting a price from pictures
The better the photos, the more accurate the price. Here’s what helps:
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- What it’s made of, if you know
There’s no need for us to visit first. Nearly every job can be priced from pictures: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we’ll come back to you with a fixed figure.
The process
There’s not much you need to do on the day. Let us in and show us the room, and we’ll get on with it. Most visits take a few hours, including clearing up.
- Dust sheets and masking go down around the bath.
- We clean, key and degrease the damage, and any rust is treated.
- We fill it, let it set, then sand it flush.
- Colour and gloss are matched to the surrounding surface.
- We tidy up and tell you when the bath can be used, generally the day after.
How to prepare
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
- Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing

Advice
Why repair rather than replace?
Replacing a bath rarely stops at the bath: tiles along the rim typically crack when it comes out, a new panel is often needed, and a plumber has to disconnect and reconnect everything. Repairing the damage avoids all of that. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Our prices are the same across the UK, so there is no premium for Head of Muir. What changes the price is the job itself: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.
Why Head of Muir clients choose us

For landlords and businesses
Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover, saving last-minute replacements. We can visit several plots in one trip.
We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Send the address, pictures and access details and we will arrange it.
Keeping it looking good
Most damage we see is avoidable. A few tips:
- Put a towel in the bath if you’re working above it
- Stick to mild cleaners and a soft cloth
- A dripping tap stains enamel, so fix it early
- Avoid scourers, wire wool and gritty cream cleaners
Don’t leave razors, cans or hair grips in the bath, as they can leave rust marks. And fix dripping taps promptly.
Small chips are quick to repair. Leave them and they collect dirt, stain and, on metal baths, rust, so early repair saves time and money.
