Bath repair in Kilmory, done in place
A typical bath repair is a few hours’ work, and you can usually bathe again the day after. There is no need to book a plumber or tiler, because the bath doesn’t move. Whether it’s damage beneath the taps and a cracked acrylic bath, we can generally put it right, on pressed steel enamel, roll-top & freestanding and cast iron enamel alike.
All of our repairs are guaranteed for twelve months. If something goes wrong with the work, we come back.

FAQs for Kilmory
How soon can you come?
We will give you dates with your quote. Tell us if you need it done quickly.
Which areas do you work in?
We cover the entire UK, including Kilmory and the rest of North Ayrshire. Send your postcode with your pictures and we’ll offer you dates.
Can you quote from photos?
In nearly every case. If photos don’t show enough, we will ask for another angle.
When can I have a bath again?
Usually the next day. We confirm the time before we leave.
Is a holed acrylic bath repairable?
Usually. Send us a picture of the hole and one from under the bath if you can.
What if the damage is worse than the photos show?
Your quote covers the damage in the pictures. If there’s more, we will tell you before starting.
What happens next?
We look at the photos and reply with a fixed price and some dates. If anything’s unclear, we’ll ask for another photo.
Is a cracked acrylic bath repairable?
In most cases. The back of the crack is strengthened before the front is filled and refinished, so we need access under the bath.
When to call us in Kilmory
Rust tends to begin where water collects, around the waste, under the taps or in an old chip. Water on bare metal causes rust that creeps under the surrounding enamel.
Common reasons people in Kilmory contact us are:
- Hairline or through cracks in acrylic
- A kit repair that didn’t last
- A chipped rim or side
- A hole punched through by something heavy
Questions to ask before booking

What happens on the day
Nothing needs to be moved out of the room beforehand. We bring everything we need with us, put protection down and get going once we’ve agreed what we are doing. It typically takes two to three hours for most chips, and you can get on with other things while we are there.
- Dust sheets and masking go down around the bath.
- The damaged area is cleaned, keyed and degreased.
- We fill it, let it set, then sand it flush.
- We match both the colour and the shine.
- We tidy up and tell you when the bath can be used, usually the day after.

What else we do in Kilmory
Should I try a DIY kit first?
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.
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is normally cheaper.
Different materials, different repairs
Pressed steel
Pressed steel is thinner and lighter, with an enamel finish like cast iron. Exposed steel rusts fast, particularly by the plughole, so early repairs matter.
Acrylic
Acrylic is light and warm to the touch, but it relies on good support. Cracks are strengthened from behind before the front is finished.
What a repair can’t fix
A few problems are outside what a surface repair can do:
- Cracks in parts of an acrylic bath we can’t get to from below
- A steel bath rusted through
- Wear across the entire surface, which needs re-enamelling
If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think.
Materials we work on in Kilmory
- Cast iron enamel
- Roll-top & freestanding
- Acrylic
- Pressed steel enamel
- Whirlpool & spa baths
Looking after it afterwards
Most damage we see is avoidable. A few tips:
- Don’t scrub with anything abrasive
- Cover the bath during DIY or decorating
- Give the bath a quick rinse after use
- If an acrylic bath flexes, have its feet adjusted
Keep metal objects like razors and cans off the surface, because they can mark the enamel. And fix dripping taps promptly.
If water is getting through a crack, stop using the bath until it’s repaired. Leaks under a bath can damage floors and ceilings.
