Chips, cracks, rust spots and small 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 work on whirlpool & spa baths, roll-top & freestanding and acrylic, and common reasons people contact us are rust by the waste and overflow and an old repair that has yellowed or come loose.
Every job is backed for twelve months, and the guarantee is the same wherever you live. We return to put right any problem with the work.

Signs you need bath repair in Longniddry
Dropped items cause the majority of chips, and a lot happen during bathroom refits. Acrylic baths crack for a different reason: poor support underneath, so the bath flexes when it’s full.
Most people get in touch after spotting one of these:
- Cracks in an acrylic bath
- Scuffs and scratches in the surface
- A failed DIY repair that’s discoloured or lifting
- Rust spots around the plughole
What your quote should include
- Who will actually do the work
- When it can be used again
- What protection goes down before work starts
- If travel is included in the price
Keeping it looking good
Much of the damage we repair could have been avoided. A few tips:
- Don’t leave a fresh chip for long
- Keep metal cans and razors off the surface
- Give the bath a quick rinse after use
- Fix dripping taps early to stop staining and limescale
Look after the repair the same way as the bath: a soft cloth and washing-up liquid is all it needs. Avoid scourers and gritty cream cleaners.
A chip on a metal bath shouldn’t be left. Water gets to the metal and rust starts, and a rust spot is a bigger repair than a clean chip.

Different materials, different repairs
Composite and resin
Composite baths are dense and solid, and frequently freestanding. Chips and scratches are filled and matched, just like other baths.
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’s the part we put right.
How the visit works
Nothing needs to be moved out of the room. We bring everything we need with us, put protection down and start once you’re happy with the plan. Most jobs take a few hours, and you are welcome to carry on with your day while we work.
- Dust sheets and masking go down around the bath.
- We clean, key and degrease the damage.
- Filler goes in and is sanded flush once it has set.
- Colour and gloss are matched to the surrounding surface.
- We clear up and give you the curing time, normally until the next day.
How to prepare
- Tell us about parking, stairs or access
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
- Make sure the room can be ventilated

Advice
When we’d advise against a repair

Can I fix it myself?
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is usually 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 frequently lifts.
FAQs for Longniddry
How much does bath repair cost in Longniddry?
Prices start from £95. Because every job differs, we price from pictures. You’ll get a fixed figure before you book.
Is a repair better than a new one?
Typically, if the item is otherwise sound. A repair avoids removal and making good. If replacing would be better, we will say so.
Can you quote from pictures?
In nearly every case. If pictures do not show enough, we’ll ask for another angle.
Can you match an avocado or pink bath?
Yes, we match coloured baths too. We tint the finish to your bath on site.
Can you repair a crack in an acrylic bath?
Typically, yes, if we can reach the underside to reinforce it. Check under the bath panel, or send us a picture.
Is it messy?
Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and tidy up before we leave.
I rent my home. Can I book you?
Yes. Ask your landlord first, and we can send them the quote if that helps.
Is a bath repair durable?
Yes, if it’s prepared properly and the bath is sound. It’s covered by our one-year guarantee.
