Most bath damage, from chips and cracks to rust spots and holes, is repaired in place. There’s no plumbing to disconnect, your tiles stay as they are, and the finish is matched to the rest of the bath. Whether it’s chips on the rim or sides and a kit repair that didn’t last, we can help, on whirlpool & spa baths, roll-top & freestanding and cast iron enamel alike.
You are covered after we leave: each job carries a one-year guarantee, and we explain what it covers before you book.

Kirknewton: your questions answered
Are there extra charges for Kirknewton?
No. Our quotes include travel, and we charge the same wherever you are.
I tried a repair kit. Can you fix it?
Yes. We take out the old repair and do it properly. Mention it when you send pictures.
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
Usually, yes. The old repair comes out first, so mention it when you send pictures.
Is a bath repair permanent?
Done properly, a repair lasts for years, and ours come with a one-year guarantee. Gentle cleaning helps it last.
Do you come to Kirknewton?
Yes. We work across the UK and travel to Kirknewton and the rest of West Lothian. Send photos and we will quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
Keep pets and children away from the work area on the day.
Do you hold any accreditations?
Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.
What happens if you find more damage?
We stop, show you and agree any change before carrying on. Nothing extra is done without your say-so.
Landlord and trade work in Kirknewton
We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Kirknewton as well as homeowners. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it typically costs far less than a refit.
For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover. We can visit several plots in one trip to keep costs down.
Looking after it afterwards
It’s all simple stuff:
- Don’t leave razors or cans standing in the bath
- Give the bath a quick rinse after use
- Don’t scrub with anything abrasive
- Get a dripping tap fixed promptly
Use gentle, non-abrasive cleaners and try not to drop heavy bottles on the repair. Deal with new chips early, before rust can start.
Stop using the bath if a crack lets water through. Leaks under a bath can damage floors and ceilings.
Can I fix it myself?
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 generally cheaper.
A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.
Do you need bath repair in Kirknewton?
Baths take more knocks than people expect: everyday items get dropped into it all the time, and fittings press hard against the enamel. Sooner or later, most baths pick up a chip.
Most people contact us after spotting something like this:
- Rust by the waste and overflow
- Snagging damage from a refit
- A failed DIY repair that is discoloured or lifting
- Chips on the rim or sides
What your quote should include
- Who will actually do the work

- What preparation is included
How it works
Your technician turns up at the time we agreed with you and looks over the damage before anything else. The floor and nearby surfaces are covered before any work starts. Most visits take a morning or an afternoon, and the room is left clean and tidy.
- We clean the area and remove any loose enamel or rust.
- We fill the damage and sand it flush with the surrounding surface.
- The colour is mixed on the spot to match your bath.
- We build up the finish and polish it into the surrounding enamel.
- We leave it to cure; you can generally use the bath the following day.
Getting ready for the visit
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
- Point us to the nearest place to park
- Clear the area around the damage
How to get a price
You do not need a survey visit. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed price.
Advice
When a repair is not the answer
To be straight with you, some problems need a different fix:
- Rust that has eaten right through a steel bath
- Acrylic cracks with no access behind them
- Water coming from the waste or taps rather than the bath
Send us pictures and we will tell you honestly.
Surfaces we repair
- Pressed steel enamel
- Whirlpool & spa baths
- Cast iron enamel

Why repair rather than replace?
People frequently assume a cracked or chipped bath has to come out. Generally it does not: a repair keeps the bath in service for years, without the cost and upheaval of replacing it. Our bath repair starts from £95. The price reflects the work involved, not your postcode. You’ll see the full price before booking, with nothing added on the day.
What you get with us
- One visit for most repairs
- A year’s guarantee on all work
- Technicians who travel to you, UK-wide
- We leave the room as we found it

What your bath is made of matters
Composite and resin
Composite baths are dense and solid. Chips and scratches are filled and matched, in much the same way.
Acrylic
Acrylic baths are moulded sheet reinforced underneath. There’s no rust, but cracks, holes and scratches happen, and cracks need support from behind to stay fixed.
