Questions from Kilconquhar
Something went through my bath. Can it be fixed?
Frequently, if there is access underneath. The hole is backed, filled and refinished to match.
What do you need from me?
Photos of the damage, a photo of the entire bath and your postcode. After that, we just agree a date.
Do you come to Kilconquhar?
Yes, we do. Technicians travel to Kilconquhar from across the region, and the price is the same as everywhere else.
How invisible is a bath repair?
The goal is a repair that blends in. How well it disappears depends on the condition of the rest of the bath.
Can you fix rust around the plughole?
Yes, very often. We take it back to sound metal, seal it, fill it and match the colour.
What happens if you find more damage?
The price is fixed for what the pictures show. Anything extra is discussed before we begin.
How long does the repair take to cure?
Most baths can be used the day after. We will tell you the exact curing time when we finish.
Do I have to be there?
We need someone to let us in. You do not need to watch us work.
How we handle bath repair in Kilconquhar
It pays to repair bath damage while it’s small. On steel and cast iron, exposed metal starts to rust, and on acrylic, a crack keeps spreading while the bath flexes. A repair stops both. Common call-outs are for an old repair that has yellowed or come loose and chips along the edge of the bath, on pressed steel enamel, cast iron enamel and whirlpool & spa baths.
You’re covered after we leave: our one-year guarantee applies to every job, and we’ll explain exactly what it covers when we quote.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Kilconquhar
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.
We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out photos. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.
DIY repairs versus a professional job
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, then guarantee it for a year.
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair will not last.
What we are called out for in Kilconquhar
Rust tends to begin where water collects, by the plughole, beneath dripping taps or in an unrepaired chip. Water on bare metal causes rust that creeps under the surrounding enamel.
Customers typically contact us about:
- A hole punched through by something heavy
- Rust by the waste and overflow
- Damage beneath the taps
- Scratches you can feel with a fingernail
What to look for in a quote
- If travel is included in the price
- How to care for the finish
- Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT
- How long it needs to cure

What we cannot put right
Not everything can be repaired, and we would rather say so up front. Repairs won’t solve:
- A whole bath that is dull or worn, where a full re-enamel is the better fix
- Metal that has corroded all the way through
- Leaks from the waste or overflow fittings (a plumber’s job)
If in doubt, send photos and we will say what we think.
What we work on
- Pressed steel enamel
- Cast iron enamel
- Roll-top & freestanding
- Acrylic
- Whirlpool & spa baths
Prices and what affects them
Repairs from £95. There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price depends on:
- The material and finish
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- The type of damage
- Whether we combine several jobs
Instead of hourly rates, we price the whole job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and combining items on one visit brings it down.
Send photos for a quote
We price nearly every job from photos. This is what to send:
- A wider photo showing the whole bath
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- Details of any past repairs
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
We price from pictures so you do not have to wait in for a survey. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through, and you will get a fixed figure back.

Materials and what they mean for the repair
Composite and resin
Stone resin and composite baths are heavy and solid. Chips and scratches can be filled and colour-matched, in much the same way.
Pressed steel
Under the enamel of a steel bath is thin metal. Exposed steel rusts quickly, so we treat and seal the metal before filling.
How it works
We work cleanly and quietly, so you can carry on at home. We protect the area first, then the work takes two to three hours for most chips. Before we leave, we explain how soon it can be used and how to care for it.
- 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.
- The damage is filled in layers and shaped to the curve of the bath.
- We tint the finish by hand to match the bath.
- Finally, it’s polished to match the shine and left to cure.
How to prepare
- Have a window or extractor fan available
- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
- Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings

A quote takes minutes to ask for: take one close-up and one wider shot of the bath, include your postcode and send them over. What comes back is a fixed price, not a guess.

Aftercare tips
Much of the damage we repair could have been avoided. These habits help:
- Don’t scrub with anything abrasive
- Do not leave a fresh chip for long
- Store metal items away from the bath
- Put a towel in the bath if you are working above it
Give the repair the full curing time we recommend before running a bath. From then on, mild cleaning is all it needs.
Stop using the bath if a crack lets water through until it’s repaired. Leaks under a bath can damage floors and ceilings.
