Mayfield: your questions answered
Can you repair a crack in an acrylic bath?
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.
How quickly can you book me in?
It depends on the time of year and where you are. Send photos with your postcode and we’ll reply with the earliest dates.
How invisible is a bath repair?
On a bath in good condition, a colour matched repair is very hard to spot. On worn enamel, it can look shinier than the rest.
Do you charge for travel?
No. Our quotes include travel, and we charge the same wherever you are.
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
Generally, yes. Let us know what was used before.
Something went through my bath. Can it be fixed?
Usually. Photos of the hole and the underside help us check.
Do I have to be there?
Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time that suits you.
Do you do work for letting agents?
Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as homeowners across Midlothian.
Bath repair in Mayfield without replacing anything
Whether your bath is steel, cast iron or acrylic, we can repair it. Each material is repaired a little differently: rust is treated on metal baths, while cracks in acrylic are reinforced from underneath. Our technicians work on pressed steel enamel, acrylic and whirlpool & spa baths, and the jobs we see most are rust spots around the plughole and chips under the taps.
All our work is covered by our one-year guarantee.

What your bath is made of matters
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.
Acrylic
Acrylic feels warm and is light, but it relies on good support. Repairs to cracks are reinforced from the back.
Looking after it afterwards
After the repair has cured, a few habits help it last:
- A dripping tap stains enamel, so fix it early
- Do not leave razors or cans standing in the bath
- Ensure an acrylic bath is firm underfoot
- Have new chips seen to early
In the first few days, avoid putting weight or bottles on the repair. After that, clean it as you would the rest of the bath without abrasive products.
Tape over a fresh chip or crack until it’s repaired, to keep water out. Remove it before the repair.
What bath repair costs
Prices start from £95. We charge the same across the UK, including Mayfield. What changes the price is:
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- What the surface is made of
- The colour and finish to match
- How many items we do on one visit
Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Send photos and we’ll give you the exact figure.
How to get a fixed quote
Two or three clear pictures are normally enough. Try to include:
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- What it’s made of, if you know
- Details of any past repairs
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
There’s no need for us to visit first. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price.
What we do, step by step
When we visit, the technician arrives at the agreed time, protects the room with dust sheets and masking and gets started. The job normally takes a morning or an afternoon. We clean up when we’re done and let you know when you can use it again.
- First, the area is cleaned and any loose enamel or rust is removed.
- Next we fill the damage and sand it smooth and level.
- We tint the finish on the day to suit your bath’s shade of white or colour.
- We apply the finish coats and polish the repair so it blends in.
- We leave it to cure; you can usually use the bath the following day.
How to prepare
- Keep a parking space free if you can
- Ensure the room can be ventilated
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
Ask for a price
Getting a price is easy: take a close-up of the damage and a picture from further back, send them to us with your postcode, and you will get a fixed quote back. There is no charge for the quote and you are under no obligation.

For landlords and businesses
Hospitality businesses cannot afford rooms out of action for long, so we keep visits short and tidy. We can work around your bookings.
For anyone letting property in or around Mayfield, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Just send photos for each address and we will price them together.
DIY kit or professional repair?
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is generally cheaper.
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully and work on a clean, dry surface, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.
