About our bath repair in Leslie
Most bath damage, from chips and cracks to rust spots and holes, is repaired in place. Nothing is unplumbed, your tiles stay as they are, and the finish is matched to the rest of the bath. We are frequently asked to fix cracks in an acrylic bath and damage done while the bathroom was being fitted, across pressed steel enamel, cast iron enamel and roll-top & freestanding.
We guarantee the work for a year. If something is not right in that time, we come back and put it right.

How it works
We begin by going over the job with you. Next, we cover and mask everything nearby and the work begins. You can expect it to take a morning or an afternoon.
- We clean the area and remove any loose enamel or rust.
- We fill the damage and sand it flush with the surrounding surface.
- We mix the colour on the day to match your bath’s exact shade.
- We apply the finish coats and polish the repair so it blends in.
- We leave it to cure; you can generally use the bath the day after.
Before we arrive
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
- Let the surface dry out before the visit
Ask for a price
We price from pictures so you do not have to wait in for a survey. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through.

Looking after it afterwards
Aftercare is simple, and it makes a real difference:
- Keep abrasive pads and gritty cleaners away from the bath
- Fix dripping taps early to stop staining and limescale
- Put a towel in the bath if you are working above it
- Store metal items away from the bath
Treat the repaired area like the rest of the bath: warm water, washing-up liquid and a soft cloth. Avoid scourers and gritty cream cleaners.
Rust under enamel spreads surprisingly quickly. Left for months, a small chip can grow into a large rust patch, so early repair keeps the cost down.
For landlords and businesses
If you manage property in Leslie, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Just send photos for each address and we will come back with a combined price.
We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which is easier on the people living there.
When a repair is not the answer
We’d rather lose a job than do one that will not last, so these are the limits:
- Water coming from the waste or taps rather than the bath
- Acrylic cracks with no access behind them
- A bath that flexes because its feet or cradle have failed (that needs fixing first)
If in doubt, send pictures and we will say what we think before you book.

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.
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.

What your bath is made of matters
Composite and resin
Composite baths are dense and solid, and frequently freestanding. Chips and scratches can be filled and colour-matched, in much the same way.
Pressed steel
Steel baths are lighter than cast iron, but have a similar enamel surface. Exposed steel rusts fast, especially around the waste, so early repairs matter.

Repair or replace in Leslie?
Replacing a bath rarely stops at the bath: the tiles sitting on the rim tend to break, the panel may not fit the new one, and the plumbing has to be disconnected and refitted. Repairing the damage avoids all of that. Prices start from £95. A repair normally costs much less than people expect, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

Leslie: your questions answered
Do you cover the entire of Fife?
Across the UK. Prices do not change with location.
Can I get a quote without a visit?
Yes, almost always. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed quote.
Will there be a smell?
Some materials have a smell while they’re applied. It fades as everything cures.
Will you leave a mess?
Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and we clean up when we’ve finished.
Do you hold any accreditations?
Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
Typically, if the item is otherwise sound. A repair avoids removal and making good. If replacing would be better, we’ll say so.
When can I have a bath again?
Most baths can be used the next day. We confirm the time before we leave.
Can you do more than one item on the same visit?
Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Send pictures of everything you’d like done.

Acrylic baths that crack nearly always have a support problem. Legs that aren’t adjusted, a missing cradle or a soft floor let the bath move.

- A cracked acrylic bath
