Should you replace it?
Replacing a fitted bath typically means a plumber, removing the old bath, making good the tiles and panel and getting rid of the old bath. Repairing it fixes just the damaged area in a single visit. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. A few things move the price: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

Bath repair in Langholm, 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. Typical jobs include damage done while the bathroom was being fitted and hairline or through cracks in acrylic, across roll-top & freestanding, cast iron enamel and pressed steel enamel.
All our work comes with our one-year guarantee.

Different materials, different repairs
Cast iron
Cast iron baths are thick and very strong, with a fused enamel surface. A chip down to the iron can rust, but the body of the bath lasts a very long time, so it’s always worth repairing.
Acrylic
Acrylic feels warm and is light, but it needs firm support underneath. Cracks are strengthened from behind before the front is finished.

When to call us in Langholm
Heavy toiletries are the biggest single cause of chips. Fittings cause damage too: water collects there, so chips nearby rust quickly.
Get in touch if you’ve noticed:
- Chips under the taps
- Damage done while the bathroom was being fitted
- Hairline or through cracks in acrylic
- Scuffs and scratches in the surface

How it works
On the day, the technician arrives at the agreed time, protects the room with dust sheets and masking and gets started. Expect it to take a morning or an afternoon. We clean up when we’re done and tell you when it’s ready to use.
- We clean the area and remove any loose enamel or rust.
- The chip or crack is filled, then sanded level with the bath.
- We tint the finish on the day to suit your bath’s shade of white or colour.
- We apply the finish coats and polish the repair so it blends in.
- Once it has cured, typically by the following day, the bath is ready to use.
Preparing for the visit
- Open a window if you can
- Point us to the nearest place to park
- Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
Getting a price
Getting a price is easy: snap the damage close up and then the entire item, send them over with your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price. Quotes are free and no obligation.

What affects the price in Langholm
Repairs from £95. Prices are worked out job by job, from your pictures. The main factors are:
- The size and number of damaged areas
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- Doing more than one item at once
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
We don’t add extras on the day. What we quote from your photos is what you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.
How to get a fixed price
You can take the pictures on your phone, there’s no need for anything special. Ensure they show:
- Something in shot to show the size
- A picture taken from further back
- What it’s made of, if you know
- One sharp close-up of the damage
You do not need a survey visit. Nearly every job can be priced from pictures: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we’ll come back to you with a fixed figure.
Langholm: your questions answered
Will the price change on the day?
We’ll show you and explain before doing anything extra. You won’t be charged for anything you haven’t agreed.
Will the repair last?
Yes, if it’s prepared properly and the bath is sound. It’s covered by our one-year guarantee.
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
Just keep them out of the work area. We will tell you when the room can be used again.
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.
Do you charge for travel?
There’s no separate call-out charge. Your fixed price includes everything.
What about rust by the waste?
Yes. We take out the rust and any loose enamel, fill the area, then colour-match the finish.
Can landlords book you?
Yes. We carry out repairs for householders, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses in Langholm.
Do the materials smell?
A little, depending on the job. Open windows and an extractor fan help, and it soon fades.

Work for landlords and builders
We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Langholm as well as householders. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it costs much less than replacing.
Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover, saving last-minute replacements. We can visit several plots in one trip.
Can I fix it myself?
For a hairline mark somewhere you will never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.
