Bath repair in Ladybank, done in place
We repair enamelled steel, cast iron and acrylic baths. The method changes with the material: rust is treated on metal baths, while cracks in acrylic are reinforced from underneath. We’re often asked to fix impact holes in acrylic and a chipped rim or side, on pressed steel enamel, cast iron enamel and roll-top & freestanding.
A one-year guarantee comes with the work, just as it does everywhere we cover.

Materials and what they mean for the repair
Pressed steel
Under the enamel of a steel bath is thin metal. Once a chip exposes it, rust follows quickly, so we treat and seal the metal before filling.
Acrylic
An acrylic bath is a moulded sheet strengthened from below. There’s no rust, but cracks, holes and scratches happen, and cracks need support from behind to stay fixed.
How to care for the repair
Good habits make a big difference to how long a repair lasts:
- Check that an acrylic bath does not move when you stand in it
- Cover the bath during DIY or decorating
- Stick to mild cleaners and a soft cloth
- Get a dripping tap fixed promptly
In the first few days, avoid putting weight or bottles on the repair. After that, clean it as you would the rest of the bath.
Don’t leave a chip on a steel or cast iron bath. Once water reaches the metal, rust begins, turning a quick repair into a bigger one.
Repairing versus replacing in Ladybank
When the bath is otherwise sound, repairing beats replacing. It’s quicker, cheaper and far less disruptive, and the bathroom stays as it is. If the entire surface is worn, re-enamelling may make more sense, and we’ll tell you. Our bath repair starts from £95. Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

Is it safe with children and pets around?
We ask you to keep children and pets out of the room while we work. Everywhere else in the home is fine.

When can I have a bath again?
Normally by the following day, depending on the repair.
Does someone need to be in?

What do you need from me?
A close-up, a wider photo and your postcode. After that, we just agree a date.
What happens if you find more damage?
We stop, show you and agree any change before carrying on. You will not be charged for anything you haven’t agreed.

What affects the price in Ladybank
Repairs from £95. We price every job individually. What matters most is:
- What the surface is made of
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
Set against the cost of replacement, repairing typically costs far less, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.
Quotes from your photos
Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what we need:
- Where you are, by postcode
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- The material, if you know it
- Natural light rather than flash
For a price in Ladybank, photos are the quickest way: one close up, one from further back, plus your postcode. We reply with a fixed quote and our next available dates.
What we do, step by step
Arrival times are agreed in advance, so you’re not left guessing. On site, it takes a morning or an afternoon. We leave the room clean and you’ll know when it can be used.
- First, we check the damage against your photos and agree the plan.
- Any rust and loose material comes out, and the area is degreased.
- We build up the filler in layers, shaping it to the bath.
- The colour is tinted by hand until it matches.
- Finally, it’s polished to match the shine and left to cure.
Getting ready for the visit
- Make sure the room can be ventilated
- Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
- Let the surface dry out before the visit

DIY kit or professional repair?
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it will not stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.
When a repair isn’t the answer
A repair isn’t right for every job, including:
- Water coming from the waste or taps rather than the bath
- A bath that flexes because its feet or cradle have failed (that needs fixing first)
- Cracks in parts of an acrylic bath we cannot get to from below
If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think before booking.
Materials we repair
- Whirlpool & spa baths
- Pressed steel enamel
- Acrylic
- Roll-top & freestanding

Work for landlords and builders
For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover, so there is no need to replace a damaged item at the last minute. Several plots can be done in one visit to keep costs down.
We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Just send pictures, the address and how to get access and we will arrange it.
