Landlords, agents and businesses in Longforgan

Hospitality businesses cannot afford rooms out of action for long, so we keep visits short and tidy. We can work around your bookings.

Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Longforgan use us as well as householders. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it usually costs far less than a refit.

About our bath repair in Longforgan

We repair enamelled steel, cast iron and acrylic baths. The method changes with the material: rust is treated on metal baths, while cracks in acrylic are reinforced from underneath. We work on pressed steel enamel, whirlpool & spa baths and roll-top & freestanding, and common reasons people contact us are a chipped rim or side and impact holes in acrylic.

A one-year guarantee comes as standard.

Prices and what affects them

Repairing it deals only with the damage in a single visit. Our bath repair starts from £95. A repair is priced on what needs doing, not your postcode. You will see the full price before you book.

The process

Here’s how a visit generally runs: we arrive on time, protect everything around the work area, carry out the work and tidy away. Plan for a few hours, depending on the damage. Before we go, we will explain how long to leave it and how to look after it.

  1. First, the area is cleaned and any loose enamel or rust is removed.
  2. We fill the damage and sand it flush with the surrounding surface.
  3. The colour is mixed on the spot to match your bath.
  4. We apply the finish coats and polish the repair so it blends in.
  5. Once it has cured, usually by the next day, the bath is ready to use.

Preparing for the visit

  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
  • Point us to the nearest place to park
  • Clear the area around the damage

You do not need a survey visit. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote.

Related advice

What a repair can’t fix

To be straight with you, there are a few things a repair won’t fix:

  • Rust that has eaten right through a steel bath
  • A bath that flexes because its feet or cradle have failed (that needs fixing first)
  • A whole bath that’s dull or worn, where a full re-enamel is the better fix

If in doubt, send photos and we will say what we think.

Surfaces we repair

  • Cast iron enamel
  • Pressed steel enamel
  • Whirlpool & spa baths
  • Roll-top & freestanding
  • Acrylic

Repairs by material

Composite and resin

Stone resin and composite baths are heavy and solid. Chips and scratches can be filled and colour matched, just like other baths.

Cast iron

A cast iron bath is heavy enough that most people never want to move it. The enamel is the part that wears or chips, and that’s what we repair.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. 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.

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is generally cheaper.

Signs you need bath repair in Longforgan

Dropped items cause the majority of chips, and building work is a common culprit. Cracks in acrylic have a different cause: the bath is not properly supported, so it flexes under weight.

Signs it’s time to call us include:

  • A failed DIY repair that’s discoloured or lifting
  • Holes from dropped items
  • Rusty patches near the plughole
  • Chips along the edge of the bath
