How we price bath repair
Prices start from £95. Prices are worked out job by job. What matters most is:
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- How hard the colour is to match
- The material and finish
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
The price depends on how much damage there is and what kind, the material and how many items we do on one visit. We give a fixed quote from your photos, so you know the cost before booking.
How to get a fixed quote
Two or three clear pictures are usually enough. It helps if you send:
- Where you are, by postcode
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- A wider photo showing the entire bath
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: photograph the damage, then the whole bath, include your postcode and send them over. What comes back is a fixed quote, not a guess.
How we handle bath repair in Kirkton of Maryculter
Repairing baths is what we do most. A chip by the taps, a crack in the base and a rust spot by the plughole are all fixed without removing the bath, typically in a single visit. Whether it’s chips on the rim or sides and damage done while the bathroom was being fitted, we can generally put it right, on cast iron enamel, acrylic and whirlpool & spa baths alike.
All of our repairs are guaranteed for twelve months, and the guarantee is the same wherever you live. If something goes wrong with the work, we come back.

Repair or replace: which is better?
A repair makes sense whenever the damage is localised. It costs far less than a new bath plus fitting, it’s done in one visit, and the bathroom stays exactly as it is. Prices start from £95. Compared with replacing, repairing normally costs far less, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.
What you get with us
- Same prices wherever you are
- Work done at your home or business
- One-year guarantee on every repair
- No need to remove anything

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 frequently lifts.
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
What your bath is made of matters
Pressed steel
Pressed steel is thinner and lighter, with an enamel finish like cast iron. Chips rust quickly on steel, particularly by the plughole, so early repairs matter.
Acrylic
Acrylic is light and warm to the touch, but it needs firm support underneath. Cracks are strengthened from behind before the front is finished.
Keeping it looking good
To keep it looking its best for years:
- Ensure an acrylic bath is firm underfoot
- Get a dripping tap fixed promptly
- Clean with warm water and a mild detergent
- Store metal items away from the bath
Give the repair the full curing time we recommend before using the bath. From then on, mild cleaning is all it needs.
Rust spreads under enamel faster than most people expect. Left for months, a small chip can grow into a large rust patch, so it pays to deal with it early.
Common questions in Kirkton of Maryculter
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
Yes, as long as they stay out of the room we are working in. We will tell you when the room can be used again.
Can you quote from pictures?
Nearly always. If photos do not show enough, we’ll ask for another angle.
Is a repair better than a new one?
Normally, if the item is otherwise sound. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. If replacing would be better, we’ll say so.
Can you repair a hole in a bath?
Normally, yes, if we can reach behind it. We back the hole, fill it and refinish the surface.
Is there any odour?
Expect a mild smell while we are working, which fades afterwards.
Is the work guaranteed?
Every repair comes with our one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Include pictures of each item.
When can you do it?
We’ll give you dates with your quote. Tell us if you need it done quickly.
How the visit works
Your technician turns up at the time we agreed with you, introduces themselves and looks over the damage before anything else. Dust sheets and masking tape go down before any work starts. Most visits take two to three hours for most chips, and the room is left clean and tidy.
- We clean the area and remove any loose enamel or rust.
- The chip or crack is filled, then sanded level with the bath.
- We mix the colour on the day to match your bath’s exact shade.
- Finish coats go on, then the repair is polished to blend in.
- We leave it to cure; you can typically use the bath the next day.
Preparing for the visit
- Point us to the nearest place to park
- Have a window or extractor fan available
- Let the surface dry out before the visit
Ask for a price
You do not need a survey visit. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we’ll come back to you with a fixed figure.
