Repairs by material

Pressed steel

Under the enamel of a steel bath is thin metal. Once a chip exposes it, rust follows quickly, so we treat and seal the metal before filling.

Cast iron

Cast iron is heavy and rigid, with a fused enamel surface. A chip down to the iron can rust, but the body of the bath lasts a very long time, so it’s always worth repairing.

What affects the price in Marnoch

Prices start from £95. A fixed quote means you know the cost before booking. We take into account:

  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • Doing more than one item at once

Instead of hourly rates, we price the entire job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and doing several items at once reduces it.

How to get a fixed quote

We price nearly every job from photos. This is what to send:

  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • The material, if you know it
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • Details of any past repairs

Send us a picture of the damage and one of the whole item, and tell us you are in Marnoch, and we’ll come back with a fixed quote.

Questions from Marnoch

Can you match an avocado or pink bath?

Yes, we match coloured baths too. The colour is tinted by hand on the day.

Is repairing better than replacing?

Generally, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. We’ll be honest if it’s not worth it.

It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?

Typically, yes. We remove the old repair before doing a new one.

What areas do you cover?

We cover the entire UK, including Marnoch and the rest of North Lanarkshire. Just include your postcode and we will offer you dates.

Will the repair last?

It should, as long as the bath is firm and the area was prepared well. It carries our one-year guarantee.

When can I have a bath again?

Typically the day after. We confirm the time before we leave.

Is it OK to have pets in the house?

Just keep them out of the work area. We’ll let you know when it’s safe to use again.

Looking after it afterwards

Most damage we see is avoidable. These habits help:

  • Don’t scrub with anything abrasive
  • Keep metal cans and razors off the surface
  • Have new chips seen to early
  • Put a towel in the bath if you are working above it

Don’t leave razors, cans or hair grips in the bath, as they can leave rust marks. And fix dripping taps promptly.

Tape over a fresh chip or crack until it’s repaired, so water cannot get in. Take it off before we arrive.

Signs you need bath repair in Marnoch

Many chips happen while the bathroom is being fitted. Tools, tiles and fittings get dropped into the bath, often before anyone notices. Snagging repairs like these are a regular job for us.

People normally call us after spotting one of these:

  • A hole punched through by something heavy
  • A cracked acrylic bath
  • Rust spots around the plughole
  • Chips along the edge of the bath

10 questions to ask before you book

Landlords, agents and businesses in Marnoch

Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover. We can visit several plots in one trip to keep costs down.

For anyone letting property in or around Marnoch, we’ll quote for several properties at once. Just send photos for each address and we’ll price them together.

How it works

The work is clean and fairly quiet, so you can carry on at home. Protection goes down first, then the job itself takes two to three hours for most chips. Before we leave, we explain the curing time and the aftercare.

  1. Dust sheets and masking go down around the bath.
  2. We clean, key and degrease the damage, and any rust is treated.
  3. We fill it, let it set, then sand it flush.
  4. We match both the colour and the shine.
  5. We clear up and give you the curing time, normally until the next day.

Preparing for the visit

  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift

DIY repairs versus a professional job

It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is usually the cheaper route.

If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, ensure the area is clean and completely dry, and give it the full curing time. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.

Repair or replace in Marnoch?

Replacing a bath rarely stops at the bath: tiles along the rim generally crack when it comes out, the panel may not fit the new one, and a plumber has to disconnect and reconnect everything. A repair skips all of it. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. The price depends on how much damage there is and what kind, the material and how many items we do on one visit. You get a fixed quote from your photos, so you know the cost before you book.
