About our bath repair in Laurencekirk
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, normally in one visit. If you are dealing with impact holes in acrylic and rusty patches near the plughole, we can typically put it right.
Peace of mind is built in: each job carries a one-year guarantee, and we’ll explain exactly what it covers when we quote.

- We protect the bath and the floor around it.
- The damaged area is cleaned, keyed and degreased, and any rust is treated.
- We fill it, let it set, then sand it flush.
- We match both the colour and the shine.
- We clear up and give you the curing time, normally until the following day.

What bath repair costs
Repairs from £95. We give every job a fixed quote from pictures. This is what makes a difference:
- Access to the area
- How many areas need work
- Doing more than one item at once
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
Compared with replacing, a repair is typically a fraction of the price, because there is no removal, plumbing or making good. The quote lists exactly what you are paying for.
Getting a price from photos
Most quotes are done from pictures alone. To make it quick:
- Where you are, by postcode
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- One picture of the entire bath
- Any details about the material
To get a price, send a couple of pictures using our quote form or ring us. We will tell you honestly whether it can be repaired.

Looking after it afterwards
Once the work has cured, treat it gently:
- Clean with warm water and a mild detergent
- Do not scrub with anything abrasive
- Make sure an acrylic bath is firm underfoot
- Keep metal cans and razors off the surface
There is nothing special to do after a repair, just sensible cleaning. Skip bleach and gritty creams.
Rust under enamel spreads surprisingly quickly. Left for months, a small chip can grow into a large rust patch, so it pays to deal with it early.
Repair or replace: which is better?
When the bath is otherwise sound, repairing beats replacing. It costs less, takes less time and causes far less upheaval, and you keep the bath you chose. If the entire surface is worn, re-enamelling may make more sense, and we will tell you. Prices start from £95. Every job is a little different, so we price each one individually. The size and type of damage, the material and access all play a part, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

Work for landlords and builders
Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, putting right damage done during fitting so nothing needs replacing. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.
Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.
What your bath is made of matters
Cast iron
Cast iron is heavy and rigid, with a fused enamel surface. A chip down to the iron can rust, but the body of the bath lasts a very long time, which makes it well worth repairing.
Acrylic
Acrylic baths are moulded sheet reinforced underneath. They do not rust, but they can crack, scratch or be holed, and cracks need support from behind to stay fixed.
Questions from Laurencekirk
Can tenants book a repair?
Of course. Check with your landlord; we can send the quote to them too.
Something went through my bath. Can it be fixed?
Typically, yes, if we can reach behind it. The hole is backed, filled and refinished to match.
Can landlords book you?
Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as homeowners.
How quickly can you book me in?
It depends on the time of year and where you are. We’ll offer you dates when we send your quote.
Will the repair show?
The goal is a repair that blends in. How well it disappears depends on the condition of the rest of the bath.
Do you come to Laurencekirk?
Yes. We work across the UK and come to Laurencekirk and the rest of Aberdeenshire. Send us pictures for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
I tried a repair kit. Can you fix it?
Yes. We remove the old filler and start again. Tell us about it when you send photos.
Can you match an avocado or pink bath?
Yes. We mix the colour on the day to match, including pastel and older colours.
When to call us in Laurencekirk
Nearly all the chips we see start with something being dropped: a shampoo bottle, a shower head, a tile or a tool during a refit. On steel and cast iron baths, any chip down to the metal lets water in, and rust follows.
Send us a photo if you notice any of these:
- Chips caused by builders
- Hairline or through cracks in acrylic
- Holes from dropped items
- Scuffs and scratches in the surface
What your quote should include
- Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?
- Who turns up on the day
- What preparation is included
- Whether they match the colour on site
