How we handle bath repair in Midton

We repair just the damaged spot and colour-match it to the bath, which is far cheaper than replacing a fitted bath. Most baths can be used again the following day. We are frequently asked to fix an old repair that has yellowed or come loose and a hole punched through by something heavy, across roll-top & freestanding, pressed steel enamel and whirlpool & spa baths.

Every repair comes with a one-year guarantee, wherever you are in Inverclyde.

Before and after: a chipped, rust-stained bath around the plughole

Repairs by material

Pressed steel

Steel baths are lighter than cast iron, but have a similar enamel surface. Exposed steel rusts fast, especially around the waste, so repair chips early.

Composite and resin

Stone resin and composite baths are heavy and solid. Chips and scratches are filled and matched, just like other baths.

Common problems we fix in Midton

Heavy toiletries are the biggest single cause of chips. Fittings cause damage too: water collects there, so chips nearby rust quickly.

Clients normally contact us about:

  • A cracked acrylic bath
  • Chips caused by builders
  • Rust by the waste and overflow
  • Chips on the rim or sides

Can pets and children be at home?

Keep pets and children away from the work area on the day, so the repair is not disturbed while it cures.

What happens once I’ve sent pictures?

We check the damage, the material and your postcode, then reply with a quote with dates.

How it works

From the moment we arrive, the aim is to do the job without disturbing the rest of your home. Surfaces nearby are masked off, the job takes a few hours, depending on what we find, and we finish by cleaning up and talking you through the result.

  1. Dust sheets and masking go down around the bath.
  2. We clean, key and degrease the damage.
  3. We fill it, let it set, then sand it flush.
  4. Colour and gloss are matched to the surrounding surface.
  5. We clear up and give you the curing time, normally until the next day.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Let the surface dry out before the visit
  • Open a window if you can
  • Let us know about parking or access

Getting a price

To get a price, send a couple of pictures through our quote form or call us. We’ll tell you honestly if a repair is the right fix.

Aftercare tips

To keep it looking its best:

  • Keep abrasive pads and gritty cleaners away from the bath
  • Do not leave a fresh chip for long
  • Give the bath a quick rinse after use
  • Store metal items away from the bath

Clean with mild, non-abrasive cleaners and try not to drop heavy bottles on the repair. Get any new chip seen to quickly, before rust can start.

Tape over a fresh chip or crack until it’s repaired, to keep water out. Take it off before we arrive.

How we price bath repair

Repairs from £95. Prices are worked out job by job, from your photos. The main factors are:

  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • The material
  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • Unusual colours or finishes

Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

How to get a fixed price

When you take your photos, these tips help us give you a firm price:

  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • A wider photo showing the whole bath
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus

Send us a picture of the damage and a wider shot of the entire item, and tell us you’re in Midton, and we will come back with a fixed quote.

Repairing versus replacing in Midton

A new bath brings a chain of other jobs: the tiles sitting on the rim tend to break, the panel may not fit the new one, and a plumber has to disconnect and reconnect everything. A repair skips all of it. Prices start from £95. What it costs depends on how much damage there is and what kind, the material and how many jobs we combine into one visit. You get a fixed price from your pictures, so there are no surprises on the day.

Why book with us

  • No extra charge for your area
  • We leave the room as we found it
  • One-year guarantee on every repair
  • Colour mixed on the day to match

See our prices page or bath cost comparison.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

For a hairline mark somewhere you will never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is typically cheaper.
