How we handle bath repair in Leverburgh

Chips, cracks, rust spots and small holes can be repaired with the bath left exactly where it is. There’s no plumbing to disconnect, the tiles are not touched, and the repaired area is colour-matched so it blends in. Typical jobs include deep scratches in acrylic and chips along the edge of the bath, on cast iron enamel, roll-top & freestanding and acrylic.

Every job is backed for twelve months. We return to put right any problem with the work.

How the visit works

Visits start with a quick look at the job together. After that, protection goes down around the work area and we start. Allow a few hours, and we will tell you if anything changes.

  1. We start by cleaning the damage and taking out loose enamel and rust.
  2. The chip or crack is filled, then sanded level with the bath.
  3. We tint the finish on the day to suit your bath’s shade of white or colour.
  4. We apply the finish coats and polish the repair so it blends in.
  5. Once it has cured, normally by the following day, the bath is ready to use.

How to prepare

  • Clear the area around the damage
  • Have a window or extractor fan available
  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day

How to get a price

The quickest way to a price is to send a couple of pictures using our quote form or ring us. We will tell you honestly if a repair is the right fix.

Prices and what affects them

Repairs from £95. Each job gets its own fixed quote. This is what makes a difference:

  • Doing more than one item at once
  • What kind of damage it is
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • The size and number of damaged areas

What it costs depends on how much damage there is and what kind, the material and how many jobs we combine into one visit. You get a fixed quote from your photos, so you know the cost before you book.

Quotes from your pictures

Photographing the damage takes a minute. Try to send:

  • The material, if you know it
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus

For most jobs, pictures are all we need to give you a price. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we’ll send back a fixed quote and some dates.

Can I fix it myself?

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is normally the cheaper route.

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.

Repairs by material

Pressed steel

Steel baths and trays have a thin metal body under the enamel. Once a chip exposes it, rust follows quickly, so we treat and seal the metal before filling.

Composite and resin

Composite baths are dense and solid. Chips and scratches can be filled and colour matched, in much the same way.

Repair or replace: which is better?

For damage in one or two places, a repair is the obvious choice. It costs far less than a new bath plus fitting, it takes one visit, and the bathroom stays exactly as it is. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. No two jobs are quite the same, so each one is priced on its own. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all make a difference, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

What you get with us

  • A year’s guarantee on all work
  • No need to remove anything
  • Repair technicians who travel to you, UK-wide
  • Rooms protected and left tidy

How to care for the repair

How the surface is treated afterwards matters. Here’s what we suggest:

  • If an acrylic bath flexes, have its feet adjusted
  • Rinse the bath after use, especially in hard water areas
  • Get any new chip repaired before it rusts
  • Clean with warm water and a mild detergent

A repaired bath needs no special treatment. Skip bleach and gritty creams.

Until we visit, a strip of waterproof tape over the damage helps, to keep water out. Take it off before we arrive.

Common questions in Leverburgh

Your quote comes with available dates. If it’s urgent, say so and we’ll do what we can.

Can pets and children be at home?

On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children.

Do you come to Leverburgh?

Yes. We work across the UK and come to Leverburgh and the rest of Na h-Eileanan Siar. Send us photos for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

Can you redo an old repair?

Yes. We remove the old filler and start again. Tell us about it when you send pictures.

What if the damage is worse than the photos show?

It’s rare, but if it happens we talk to you first. You decide whether to go ahead.

What happens after I send photos?

We review the photos and send a fixed quote.

Is my repair covered?

Yes: twelve months. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.

Can you repair several things at once?

Yes, and it’s frequently cheaper. Just add the extra items to your photos and you will get one combined price.

Do you need bath repair in Leverburgh?

Baths take more knocks than people expect: everyday items get dropped into it all the time, and taps and wastes are tightened against the surface. Over time, chips and rust spots are almost inevitable.

Keep an eye out for these signs:

  • Chips along the edge of the bath
  • Scratches you can feel with a fingernail
  • A hole punched through by something heavy
  • An old repair that has yellowed or come loose
