Menzieshill: your questions answered
What about rust by the waste?
Yes. We remove the rust and loose enamel, fill the area, then colour-match the finish.
Is a bath repair permanent?
It should, as long as the bath is firm and the area was prepared well. It carries our one-year guarantee.
Do you charge for travel?
We do not add a call-out fee. Your fixed quote includes everything.
Can you repair several things at once?
Of course, and it typically saves money. Just add the extra items to your pictures and we will quote them together.
Will I be able to see the repair?
On a glossy bath, you will struggle to find it. On older, dull enamel the repair can look glossier than the area around it.
When can you do it?
Your quote comes with available dates. If it’s urgent, say so and we’ll do what we can.
Will it make a mess?
Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and we clean up when we have finished.
Can you repair a failed DIY repair?
Yes. We take out the old repair and do it properly. Mention it when you send photos.
Bath repair in Menzieshill without replacing anything
Most of our bath repairs take a few hours, and the bath is back in use the day after. There’s no need to book a plumber or tiler, because the bath doesn’t move. Our technicians work on roll-top & freestanding, pressed steel enamel and acrylic, and common reasons people contact us are chips under the taps and rusty patches near the plughole.
The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If there’s a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it.

Materials and what they mean for the repair
Pressed steel
Steel baths are lighter than cast iron, but have a similar enamel surface. Chips rust quickly on steel, particularly by the plughole, so repair chips early.
Acrylic
Acrylic feels warm and is light, but it needs firm support underneath. Repairs to cracks are reinforced from the back.
DIY repairs versus a professional job
If you are 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 fails, we can still put it right.
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, then guarantee it for a year.

What happens on the day
Here’s how a visit typically runs: we arrive on time, sheet and mask the area around the job, do the job and tidy away. Allow two to three hours for most chips from start to finish. Before we go, we’ll explain how long to leave it and how to look after it.
- We start by cleaning the damage and taking out loose enamel and rust.
- We fill the damage and sand it flush with the surrounding surface.
- We tint the finish on the day to suit your bath’s shade of white or colour.
- We build up the finish and polish it into the surrounding enamel.
- The repair is left to cure, and most baths can be used the next day.
Getting ready for the visit
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
- Have a window or extractor fan available
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible

Prices and what affects them
Repairs from £95. There is no charge for travel to Menzieshill. The price depends on:
- What kind of damage it is
- The colour and finish to match
- How many areas need work
- The material and finish
Rather than charging by the hour, we price the entire job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access.
How to get a fixed price
Two or three clear pictures are usually enough. Try to include:
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- What it’s made of, if you know
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: take one close-up and one wider shot of the bath, include your postcode and send them to us. What comes back is a fixed price, not a guess.
Looking after it afterwards
How the surface is treated afterwards matters. Here’s what we suggest:
- Put a towel in the bath if you’re working above it
- Avoid scourers, wire wool and gritty cream cleaners
- Get a dripping tap fixed promptly
- Have new chips seen to early
Clean with mild, non-abrasive cleaners and avoid dropping heavy items on the repaired area. Get any new chip seen to quickly, before rust sets in.
Rust spreads under enamel faster than most people expect. A chip the size of a fingernail can become a much larger patch if it’s left for months, so it pays to deal with it early.
When to call us in Menzieshill
Glass and heavy bottles cause more chips than anything else, closely followed by shower heads. Fittings cause damage too: water collects there, so chips nearby rust quickly.
Signs it’s time to call us include:
- A kit repair that didn’t last
- A hole punched through by something heavy
- Chips under the taps
- Damage done while the bathroom was being fitted
