How we handle bath repair in Lenzie
Chips, cracks, rust spots and small holes can be repaired with the bath left exactly where it is. 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 rust by the waste and overflow and holes from dropped items, we can generally put it right, on acrylic, pressed steel enamel 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.

Different materials, different repairs
Composite and resin
Stone resin and composite baths are heavy and solid, and frequently freestanding. Chips and scratches can be filled and colour-matched, in much the same way.
Cast iron
Cast iron baths are so heavy that repairing in place makes obvious sense. The enamel is the part that wears or chips, and that’s the part we put right.
How to care for the repair
How the surface is treated afterwards matters. Here’s what we suggest:
- Use a soft cloth and washing-up liquid for everyday cleaning
- Keep metal cans and razors off the surface
- Check that an acrylic bath does not move when you stand in it
- Put a towel in the bath if you are working above it
Give the repair the full curing time we recommend before running a bath. After that, gentle cleaning keeps it looking good.
If water is getting through a crack, stop using the bath until it’s repaired. Water under the bath can damage the floor and the ceiling below.
What bath repair costs
Prices start from £95. A fixed quote means you know the cost before booking. We look at:
- Access to the area
- How hard the colour is to match
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- What kind of damage it is
No two jobs are quite the same, so we price each one individually. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all make a difference, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.
Quotes from your photos
Phone pictures are fine, there is no need for anything special. Just ensure we can see:
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- Something in shot to show the size
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- Any details about the material
Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us photos through the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the entire bath, we can price the job.
Should I try a DIY kit first?
If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, make sure the area is clean and completely dry, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, and the work is guaranteed.
How it works
We agree an arrival time beforehand. Once we’re there, the work takes two to three hours for most chips in most cases. The room is left tidy.
- We start by looking at the damage and confirming the plan with you.
- Any rust and loose material comes out, and the area is degreased.
- The damage is filled in layers and shaped to the curve of the bath.
- The colour is tinted by hand until it matches.
- Finally, it’s polished to match the shine and left to cure.
Before we arrive
- Let us know if it has been repaired before
- Let the surface dry out before the visit
- Let us know about parking or access
Getting a price
Pricing is simple: take a close-up of the damage and a picture from further back, send them over with your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote. Quotes are free and you are under no obligation.

What else we do in Lenzie
Repair or replace: which is better?
Replacing a fitted bath generally means a plumber, lifting out the old bath, re-tiling and a new panel and getting rid of the old bath. Repairing it deals only with the damage in a single visit. Prices start from £95. A repair usually costs much less than people expect, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Send pictures and we will give you the exact figure.

Your questions about bath repair in Lenzie
Are you a vetted contractor?

Is a repair better than a new one?

Just keep them out of the work area. We will let you know when it’s safe to use again.
What areas do you cover?
All of East Dunbartonshire, and the rest of the UK. Travel is included in the price.
Is a bath repair durable?
Yes, if it’s prepared properly and the bath is sound. It carries our one-year guarantee.
Can you price it without visiting?
Normally, yes. Clear pictures let us give you a fixed quote without visiting.
What does bath repair cost?
Prices start from £95. We give a fixed price based on pictures of the damage. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo with your G66 postcode.
Do you repair coloured baths?
Yes. The colour is mixed on site to suit your bath, including older coloured suites.
What a repair can’t fix
Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:
- Acrylic cracks with no access behind them
- A steel bath rusted through
- A bath worn all over, where resurfacing makes more sense
