Repairing baths is what we do most. Chips on the rim, rust around the waste and cracks in acrylic are all repaired in place, usually in a single visit. Whether it’s deep scratches in acrylic and chips under the taps, we can typically put it right, whatever the material.
We guarantee the work for a year. If something isn’t right in that time, we come back and put it right.

Should you replace it?
For damage in one or two places, a repair is the obvious choice. It’s a fraction of the cost of a new bath and fitting, it’s done in one visit, and the bathroom stays exactly as it is. Prices start from £95. There are no surprise extras on the day. The price we quote from your pictures is the price you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.
What you get with us
- Every repair guaranteed for a year
- Honest advice, even when it means no job

- CHAS and Constructionline accredited

The process
The work is clean and fairly quiet, so you can carry on at home. We protect the area first, then the job itself takes a few hours, depending on the damage. Before we leave, we explain the curing time and the aftercare.
- Dust sheets and masking go down around the bath.
- We clean, key and degrease the damage, and any rust is treated.
- We fill it, let it set, then sand it flush.
- Colour and gloss are matched to the surrounding surface.
- We clear up and give you the curing time, normally until the day after.
How to prepare
- Let us know about parking or access
- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
- Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
Ask for a price
Pricing is simple: snap the damage close up and then the whole item, send them to us with your postcode, and you will get a fixed quote back. Quotes are free and you are under no obligation.

DIY repairs versus a professional job
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is typically cheaper.
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it will not stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.
Common questions in Lochardil
Are you accredited?
Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.
Can you redo an old repair?
Yes. We remove the old filler and start again. Tell us about it when you send photos.
What happens next?
We check the damage, the material and your postcode, then reply with a quote with dates.
Can a cracked acrylic bath be fixed?
Most of the time. The back of the crack is strengthened before the front is filled and refinished, so we need access under the bath.
Can you price it without visiting?
Nearly always. If photos don’t show enough, we’ll ask for another angle.
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
Just keep them out of the work area. We will let you know when it’s safe to use again.
Will the repair last?
Done properly, a repair lasts for years, and it’s guaranteed for a year. Gentle cleaning helps.
Can you match an avocado or pink bath?
Yes. We mix the colour on the day to match, including pastel and older colours.
What else we do in Lochardil
For landlords and businesses
Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs in Highland and across the UK. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which matters when someone is living in the home.
We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Lochardil as well as householders. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it usually costs far less than a refit.

Different materials, different repairs
Cast iron
A cast iron bath is heavy enough that most people never want to move it. Only the enamel surface wears or chips, and that is the part we put right.
Pressed steel
Pressed steel is thinner and lighter, with an enamel finish like cast iron. Chips rust quickly on steel, especially around the waste, so early repairs matter.
Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £95. We give every job a fixed quote from photos. These are the things that affect it:
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- Access to the area
- What kind of damage it is
- How many items we do on one visit
We charge the same wherever you are, with no extra for Lochardil. The job itself decides the price: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.
How to get a fixed price
It only takes a minute to photograph the damage, and it saves a visit. Please include:
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- A photo taken from further back
- Something in shot to show the size
- One sharp close-up of the damage
If you’re in Lochardil and want a price, the easiest route is photos: one close up, one from further back, plus your postcode. We reply with a fixed quote and our next available dates.
Aftercare tips
Most damage we see is avoidable. A few tips:
- Get any new chip repaired before it rusts
- Clean with warm water and a mild detergent
- Make sure an acrylic bath is firm underfoot
- Do not leave razors or cans standing in the bath
Clean with mild, non-abrasive cleaners and try not to drop heavy bottles on the repair. Deal with new chips early, before rust can start.
Small chips are quick to repair. Left alone, they stain and can rust, so early repair saves time and money.
Honest limits
Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair won’t do:
- Cracks in parts of an acrylic bath we can’t get to from below
- A steel bath rusted through
- A bath worn all over, where resurfacing makes more sense
Send us photos and we will tell you honestly.
