FAQs for Hilton
Is there a guarantee?
All our work carries our one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.
Can you repair several things at once?
Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Send pictures of everything you’d like done.
Can I get a quote without a visit?
Yes, almost always. Clear pictures let us give you a fixed quote without visiting.
Is a cracked acrylic bath repairable?
Frequently, yes, as long as we can get to the back of the crack to support it. Take off the bath panel and check, or send us a picture.
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
Most of the time. Tell us what was done before.
Something went through my bath. Can it be fixed?
Frequently, if there is access underneath. We back the hole, fill it and refinish the surface.
What happens after I send pictures?
We check the damage, the material and your postcode, then reply with a quote with dates.
What about rust by the waste?
Yes, it’s one of the most common repairs we do. We take it back to sound metal, seal it, fill it and match the colour.

What else we do in Hilton
Landlords, agents and businesses in Hilton
Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.
We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, putting right damage done during fitting so nothing needs replacing. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.
Why repair rather than replace?
Cast iron baths especially are worth keeping: getting one out, particularly from an upstairs bathroom, is a big job, and replacing like for like is not cheap. Repairing it leaves it where it is. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. We charge the same wherever you are, with no extra for Hilton. What changes the price is the job itself: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.
Why book with us
- Most jobs done in one visit
- Dust sheets down, tidy finish
- CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited
- A year’s guarantee on all work

When to call us in Hilton
Heavy toiletries are the biggest single cause of chips, closely followed by shower heads. Taps and wastes cause problems too: water collects there, so chips nearby rust quickly.
Look out for these signs:
- Chips caused by builders
- Rust spots around the plughole
- A failed DIY repair that is discoloured or lifting
- Scratches you can feel with a fingernail
What to look for in a quote

What bath repair costs
Prices start from £95. We price every job individually. What matters most is:
- Access to the area
- The type of damage
- Unusual colours or finishes
- What the surface is made of
Compared with replacing, repairing generally costs far less, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.
Getting a price from pictures
A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. It helps if you send:
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
There is no need for us to visit first. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we’ll come back to you with a fixed figure.
What happens on the day
It’s a tidy, low-fuss visit. We confirm the time with you beforehand, protect the area, then carry out the work, which typically takes a morning or an afternoon. If anything looks different from your photos, we’ll talk to you before going ahead.
- First, we check the damage against your photos and agree the plan.
- Loose enamel, rust and dirt are removed so the repair can bond.
- We build up the filler in layers, shaping it to the bath.
- The colour is tinted by hand until it matches.
- Finally, it’s polished to match the shine and left to cure.
Preparing for the visit
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
- Keep a parking space free if you can
- Let us know which floor the room is on
Ask for a price
The quickest way to a price is to send a couple of pictures through our quote form or ring us. We will say immediately if a repair is the right fix.
Advice
Covering Hilton
Hilton is about 22 miles north of Nairn, in Highland. From the centre of Hilton to the outlying streets, we offer exactly the same service: a fixed quote, a tidy visit and a guarantee. Our technicians cover all 253 towns and villages across Highland, from the larger towns to small villages.
Here we cover the IV25 postcode area. We regularly work on streets such as Birchwood and Embo Street and the roads around them. We also travel to Embo (1 mile north-east), Dornoch (1 mile south), Camore (2 miles south-west), Skelbo Muir (2 miles north-west) and Littleferry (3 miles north).

Repairs by material
Composite and resin
Stone resin and composite baths are heavy and solid, and frequently freestanding. Chips and scratches are filled and matched, in much the same way.
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, which makes it well worth repairing.
What we can’t put right
In fairness, some problems need a different fix:
- Leaking fittings, which need a plumber
- Wear across the whole surface, which needs re-enamelling
- A steel bath rusted through
If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think.
Surfaces we repair
- Acrylic
- Whirlpool & spa baths
- Pressed steel enamel
- Roll-top & freestanding
- Cast iron enamel
DIY kit or professional repair?
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it won’t stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.
