Different materials, different repairs
Pressed steel
Under the enamel of a steel bath is thin metal. Once a chip exposes it, rust follows quickly, so the metal is treated and sealed before the repair.
Acrylic
An acrylic bath is a moulded sheet strengthened from below. They do not rust, but they can crack, scratch or be holed, and cracks need support from behind to stay fixed.
Bath repair in Inveraray, done in place
A typical bath repair is a few hours’ work, and you can generally bathe again the next day. You will not need a plumber or tiler, because the bath doesn’t move. Typical jobs include a failed DIY repair that’s discoloured or lifting and cracks in an acrylic bath, across roll-top & freestanding, whirlpool & spa baths and pressed steel enamel.
You’re covered after we leave: our one-year guarantee applies to every job, and we explain what it covers before booking.

Inveraray questions
Is a bath repair durable?
Done properly, a repair lasts for years, and it’s guaranteed for a year. Gentle cleaning helps it last.
Can you fix rust around the plughole?
Yes. We take out the rust and any loose enamel, seal and fill the area, then colour-match the finish.
How soon can you come?
Your quote comes with available dates. Tell us if you need it done quickly.
Do you cover Inveraray?
Yes. We cover the whole UK and travel to Inveraray and the rest of Argyll and Bute. Send pictures and we’ll quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
Do you hold any accreditations?
We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.
Are there extra charges for Inveraray?
No. Our quotes include travel, and we charge the same wherever you are.
Can you redo an old repair?
Yes. We take out the old repair and do it properly. Mention it when you send pictures.
Do the materials smell?
There can be some smell while we work, so we ventilate the room. It clears as the materials cure.
When to call us in Inveraray
Rust normally starts where water sits, by the plughole, beneath dripping taps or in an unrepaired chip. Water on bare metal causes rust that creeps under the surrounding enamel.
People usually call us when they notice something like this:
- A kit repair that didn’t last
- Rust by the waste and overflow
- Chips along the edge of the bath
- Impact holes in acrylic
Before booking anyone
- How long the guarantee is and what it covers
- Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT
- Who will actually do the work
- How long it needs to cure
What we cannot put right
To be straight with you, some problems need a different fix:
- Acrylic cracks with no access behind them
- A whole bath that is dull or worn, where a full re-enamel is the better fix
- Leaking fittings, which need a plumber
Send us photos and we will tell you honestly.

The process
Visits start with a quick look at the job together. After that, protection goes down around the work area and we start. Allow a morning or an afternoon, and we will tell you if anything changes.
- First, the area is cleaned and any loose enamel or rust is removed.
- The chip or crack is filled, then sanded level with the bath.
- We tint the finish on the day to suit your bath’s shade of white or colour.
- We apply the finish coats and polish the repair so it blends in.
- The repair is left to cure, and most baths can be used the day after.
Before we arrive
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
- Clear the area around the damage

Getting a price from photos

- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- Details of any past repairs
No survey visit is needed: we price from pictures. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through, and we will come back with a fixed figure.
DIY repairs versus a professional job
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is typically cheaper.
Why repair rather than replace?
Replacing a bath rarely stops at the bath: tiles along the rim usually crack when it comes out, the panel may not fit the new one, and the plumbing has to be disconnected and refitted. A repair skips all of it. Our bath repair starts from £95. Set against the cost of replacement, repairing typically costs far less, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. The quote lists exactly what you are paying for.
