Bath repair at your home in Maryhill
We repair enamelled steel, cast iron and acrylic baths. Each material is repaired a little differently: rust is treated on metal baths, while cracks in acrylic are reinforced from underneath. We are frequently asked to fix scratches you can feel with a fingernail and a cracked acrylic bath, on roll-top & freestanding, cast iron enamel and whirlpool & spa baths.
Peace of mind is built in: our one-year guarantee applies to every job, and we explain what it covers before you book.

Common questions in Maryhill
How long before I can use the bath?
Most baths can be used the next day. We will tell you the exact curing time when we finish.
Can pets and children be at home?
We ask you to keep children and pets out of the room while we work. Everywhere else in the home is fine.
Is a cracked acrylic bath repairable?
In most cases. The back of the crack is strengthened before the front is filled and refinished, so we need access under the bath.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Yes. Doing several items on one visit usually costs less than separate visits. Include photos of each item.
Can you repair a hole in a bath?
Generally. Send us a photo of the hole and one from under the bath if you can.
How do I book?
Photos of the damage, a photo of the whole bath and your postcode. Then we will agree a date.
Can rust on a bath be repaired?
Yes. We take out the rust and any loose enamel, fill the area, then colour-match the finish.
Is repairing better than replacing?
Generally, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. We will be honest if it’s not worth it.
Landlord and trade work in Maryhill
If you manage property in Maryhill, we will quote for several properties at once. Send photos for each one and we will price them together.
Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Maryhill use us as well as householders. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it costs much less than replacing.
DIY kit or professional repair?
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, then guarantee it for a year.
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 typically the cheaper route.

Common problems we fix in Maryhill
A cracked acrylic bath generally wasn’t supported properly. Legs that are not adjusted, a missing cradle or a soft floor let the bath move until it cracks.
Signs it’s time to call us include:
- Deep scratches in acrylic
- Rust by the waste and overflow
- Chips under the taps
- Holes from dropped items
What to look for in a quote
- A fixed quote, and whether VAT is included
- If travel is included in the price
- Who will actually do the work

Different materials, different repairs
Pressed steel
Steel baths are lighter than cast iron, but have a similar enamel surface. Chips rust quickly on steel, especially around the waste, so early repairs matter.
Composite and resin
Stone resin and composite baths are heavy and solid, and often freestanding. Chips and scratches can be filled and colour matched, in much the same way.
When a repair is not the answer
Before you book, it’s worth knowing the limits:
- Leaking fittings, which need a plumber
- A bath that flexes because its feet or cradle have failed (that needs fixing first)
- A steel bath rusted through
Send us photos and we will tell you honestly.

What we do, step by step
We agree an arrival time beforehand, so you are not left guessing. On site, it takes a few hours, depending on the damage in most cases. We leave the room clean and you will know when it can be used.
- Dust sheets and masking go down around the bath.
- We clean, key and degrease the damage, and any rust is treated.
- 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 following day.
Before we arrive
- Let us know about parking or access
- Let the surface dry out before the visit
- Let us know if it has been repaired before
How to get a price
For most jobs, pictures are all we need to give you a price. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.

Aftercare tips
A little care keeps the finish looking good. Our advice:
- Rinse it down after each bath
- Avoid scourers, wire wool and gritty cream cleaners
- Get a dripping tap fixed promptly
- Put a towel in the bath if you’re working above it
For the first few days, keep heavy bottles off the repaired spot. After that, normal gentle cleaning is fine, avoiding abrasives.
If an acrylic bath has a crack, stop showering in it until it’s repaired. Every use opens the crack a little more, and it can start to leak underneath.
Repair or replace: which is better?
Think about the hidden costs of a new bath: taking out the old one, plumbing, tiling, a panel and redecorating. With a repair, it’s one visit and one price. Our bath repair starts from £95. No two jobs are quite the same, so each one is priced on its own. The size and type of damage, the material and access all make a difference, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.
What you get with us
