How we handle bath repair in High Earnock
We repair enamelled steel, cast iron and acrylic baths. Each material is repaired a little differently: metal baths need any rust dealt with first, and acrylic cracks need support from behind. If you are dealing with chips along the edge of the bath and rusty patches near the plughole, we can generally put it right.
You are covered after we leave: our one-year guarantee applies to every job, and we’ll explain exactly what it covers when we quote.

Questions from High Earnock
Are you a vetted contractor?
Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.
Is a bath repair durable?
A properly prepared repair should last a long time, and it’s guaranteed for a year. Gentle cleaning helps.
Is a repair better than a new one?
Generally, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. If it is not worth repairing, we will tell you.
Will there be a smell?
Some materials have a smell while they’re applied, which is why we ventilate. It clears as the materials cure.
Is it safe with children and pets around?
We ask you to keep children and pets out of the room while we work. Everywhere else in the home is fine.
Do you cover High Earnock?
We do. Repair technicians travel to High Earnock from across the region, and the price is the same as everywhere else.
Will it make a mess?
Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we leave the room clean.
Can you redo an old repair?
Yes, we do this often. We strip it out, deal with any rust and repair it again.
Landlords, agents and businesses in High Earnock
We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in High Earnock as well as householders. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it costs much less than replacing.

Common problems we fix in High Earnock
Most bath damage comes from something dropped: bottles, shower heads, tiles and tools. On enamelled baths, any chip down to the metal lets water in, and rust follows.
If you can see any of these, send us a photo:
- Impact holes in acrylic
- Deep scratches in acrylic
- A kit repair that didn’t last
- A chip where the taps sit
What to look for in a quote
- Whether the colour is mixed to match
- If travel is included in the price
- Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price
- Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?
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.
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.

Repairs by material
Cast iron
Cast iron baths are thick and very strong, with a fused enamel surface. A chip down to the iron can rust, but the bath itself lasts for generations, so it’s always worth repairing.
Pressed steel
Steel baths and trays have a thin metal body under the enamel. Once a chip exposes it, rust follows quickly, so we treat and seal the metal before filling.
Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £95. Every quote is fixed and free. What we take into account:
- How many areas need work
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- How hard the colour is to match
- The material and finish
The price reflects the work involved, not your postcode. You will see the full price before booking.
Quotes from your pictures
When you take your photos, a few simple things make all the difference:
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- Where you are, by postcode
- A picture taken from further back
Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us pictures through the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the whole bath, we can price the job.
Keeping it looking good
Looking after the surface is easy:
- Keep abrasive pads and gritty cleaners away from the bath
- Have new chips seen to early
- If an acrylic bath flexes, have its feet adjusted
- Put a towel in the bath if you are working above it
A repaired bath needs no special treatment. Skip bleach and gritty creams and give it a rinse after each bath.
Don’t leave a chip on a steel or cast iron bath. Once water reaches the metal, rust begins, and a rust spot is a bigger repair than a clean chip.
What happens on the day
It’s a tidy, low-fuss visit. We agree the arrival time in advance, protect the area, and get on with the job, which usually takes two to three hours for most chips. If we find something your pictures didn’t show, we’ll explain it before carrying on.
- We start by looking at the damage and confirming the plan with you.
- Any rust and loose material comes out, and the area is degreased.
- We build up the filler in layers, shaping it to the bath.
- We tint the finish by hand to match the bath.
- 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
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
