Bath repair in Kingsbarns without replacing anything
Bath repair is our most common job. A chip by the taps, a crack in the base and a rust spot by the plughole are all repaired in place, normally in one visit. We’re often asked to fix impact holes in acrylic and a chipped rim or side, on cast iron enamel, acrylic and roll-top & freestanding.
We stand behind the work with a one-year guarantee, so you’re covered after the visit.

When to call us in Kingsbarns
Glass and heavy bottles cause more chips than anything else, closely followed by shower heads. Fittings cause damage too: water sits around them, and any chip there soon rusts.
You may need us if you’ve spotted:
- Damage beneath the taps
- Hairline or through cracks in acrylic
- An old repair that has yellowed or come loose
- Rusty patches near the plughole

Repair or replace: which is better?
A new bath costs more than the bath itself: removal and disposal, plumbing, a new panel, tiling and decorating. With a repair, it’s one visit and one price. Our bath repair starts from £95. Our prices are the same across the UK, with no extra for Kingsbarns. What changes the price is the job itself: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

The process
We work cleanly and quietly, so you can stay at home while we are there. We protect the area first, then the work takes a few hours, depending on the damage. At the end we talk you through the curing time and the aftercare.
- Dust sheets and masking go down around the bath.
- We clean, key and degrease the damage, and any rust is treated.
- Filler goes in and is sanded flush once it has set.
- We match both the colour and the shine.
- We tidy up and tell you when the bath can be used, generally the next day.
Getting ready for the visit
- Point us to the nearest place to park
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
- Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
Getting a price
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 without visiting.

Kingsbarns: your questions answered
Do I need to be at home?
We need someone to let us in. You do not need to watch us work.
Will I be able to see the repair?
We aim for a repair you cannot easily find. How well it disappears depends on the condition of the rest of the bath.
Is repairing better than replacing?
In most cases, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. If it is not worth repairing, we’ll tell you.
I tried a repair kit. Can you fix it?
Yes, we do this often. The old material comes out, any rust is treated, then we repair it properly.
Will the price change on the day?
We stop, show you and agree any change before carrying on. Nothing extra is done without your say-so.
Is a bath repair permanent?
A properly prepared repair should last a long time, and it’s guaranteed for a year. Gentle cleaning helps it last.
Do you do work for letting agents?
We do, regularly. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.
How quickly can you book me in?
We’ll give you dates with your quote. Tell us if you need it done quickly.
How we price bath repair
Repairs from £95. We don’t charge extra for travel to Kingsbarns. The price depends on:
- The material
- Whether we combine several jobs
- How hard the colour is to match
- How much damage there is
The price depends on the type and amount of damage, the material and how many jobs we combine into one visit. You get a fixed quote from your photos, so there are no surprises on the day.
How to get a fixed price
A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. It helps if you send:
- A picture taken from further back
- Details of any past repairs
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- Something in shot to show the size
The quickest way to a price is to send two or three pictures using our quote form or ring us. We’ll say immediately if a repair is the right fix.
DIY kit or professional repair?
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is generally the cheaper route.
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it does not stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.
What a repair cannot fix
Some jobs are not right for a repair, for example:
- A bath worn all over, where resurfacing makes more sense
- A bath that moves underfoot, until its support is fixed
- Rust that has eaten right through a steel bath
Not sure? Send pictures and we’ll give you a straight answer.

Other services in Kingsbarns
Different materials, different repairs
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.
Cast iron
A cast iron bath is heavy enough that most people never want to move it. The enamel is the part that wears or chips, and that is the part we put right.
