About our bath repair in Moira
Whatever the damage, the aim is the same: a repair that’s smooth, sound and hard to spot. Proper preparation, careful filling and shaping, then colour and gloss matching so it sits flush with the rest of the bath. Whether it’s holes from dropped items and damage beneath the taps, we can typically put it right, whatever the material.
A one-year guarantee comes as standard.

Should I try a DIY kit first?
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.
Questions from Moira
Are you accredited?
Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.
How do I get a price for bath repair in Moira?
Repairs from £95. Because every job differs, we price from pictures. You know the full cost before anything is booked.
Can pets and children be at home?
On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children.
How soon can you come?
It depends on the time of year and where you are. Send photos with your postcode and we’ll reply with the earliest dates.
Can you quote from photos?
In nearly every case. If pictures don’t show enough, we will ask for another angle.
Can you match an avocado or pink bath?
Yes. The colour is mixed on site to suit your bath, including older coloured suites.
Can you repair several things at once?
Yes. Doing several items on one visit normally costs less than separate visits. Send photos of everything you’d like done.
Can you redo an old repair?
Yes. We remove the old filler and start again. Mention it when you send photos.
Work for landlords and builders
We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Moira as well as householders. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it normally costs far less than a refit.
Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover, saving last-minute replacements. Several plots can be done in one visit to keep costs down.

Aftercare tips
Simple care helps the repair last. Our advice:
- Get any new chip repaired before it rusts
- Check that an acrylic bath does not move when you stand in it
- Give the bath a quick rinse after use
- Avoid scourers, wire wool and gritty cream cleaners
For the first few days, keep heavy bottles off the repaired spot. After that, normal gentle cleaning is fine, avoiding abrasives.
Until we visit, a strip of waterproof tape over the damage helps, so water can’t get in. Take it off before we arrive.
When to call us in Moira
Rust tends to begin where water collects, by the plughole, beneath dripping taps or in an unrepaired chip. Water on bare metal causes rust that creeps under the surrounding enamel.
People normally call us when they notice something like this:
- Damage done while the bathroom was being fitted
- Holes from dropped items
- Scratches you can feel with a fingernail
- Rust spots around the plughole

What we cannot put right
To be straight with you, some problems need a different fix:
- A bath that moves underfoot, until its support is fixed
- Cracks in acrylic we cannot reach from underneath
- Water coming from the waste or taps rather than the bath
Send us pictures and we will tell you honestly.
Materials we repair
- Cast iron enamel
- Whirlpool & spa baths
- Acrylic
- Roll-top & freestanding
- Pressed steel enamel
What your bath is made of matters
Cast iron
A cast iron bath is heavy enough that most people never want to move it. The enamel is the part that wears or chips, and that’s what we repair.
Pressed steel
Pressed steel is thinner and lighter, with an enamel finish like cast iron. Exposed steel rusts fast, particularly by the plughole, so early repairs matter.
What bath repair costs
Prices start from £95. We charge the same across the UK, including Moira. The price reflects:
- The material
- Access to the area
- The size and number of damaged areas
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
Instead of hourly rates, we fix the price before we start. Damage, material and access decide it, and combining items on one visit brings it down.
Getting a price from photos
Good pictures mean an accurate price. Here’s what we find most useful:
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- Natural light rather than flash
- Details of any past repairs
For most jobs, pictures are all we need to give you a price. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.
