Bath repair at your home in Nether Blainslie
It pays to repair bath damage while it’s small. On steel and cast iron, exposed metal starts to rust, and on acrylic, a crack keeps spreading while the bath flexes. A repair stops both. We regularly repair whirlpool & spa baths, roll-top & freestanding and pressed steel enamel, and the jobs we see most are chips along the edge of the bath and a kit repair that didn’t last.
The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If there’s a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it.

Nether Blainslie questions
It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?
Generally, yes. We remove the old repair before doing a new one, so mention it when you send photos.
What happens next?
You’ll get a fixed quote back. You are under no obligation.
Can I get a quote without a visit?
In nearly every case. We only ask to see it in person if the photos cannot show what we need.
Do you work for landlords and businesses?
We do, regularly. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.
What do you need from me?
Photos of the damage, a photo of the entire bath and your postcode. Then we’ll agree a date.
Will you leave a mess?
We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and tidy up before we leave.
Is there a guarantee?
Every repair comes with our one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.
I rent my home. Can I book you?
Yes. Check with your landlord; we can send the quote to them too.

Landlord and trade work in Nether Blainslie

DIY repairs versus a professional job
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair won’t last.
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is typically the cheaper route.
Materials and what they mean for the repair
Pressed steel
Under the enamel of a steel bath is thin metal. Exposed steel rusts quickly, so the metal is treated and sealed before the repair.
Composite and resin
Composite baths are dense and solid. Chips and scratches are filled and matched, just like other baths.
Aftercare tips
Looking after the surface is easy:
- Get a dripping tap fixed promptly
- Store metal items away from the bath
- Clean with warm water and a mild detergent
- Check that an acrylic bath does not move when you stand in it
Give the repair the full curing time we recommend before running a bath. After that, gentle cleaning keeps it looking good.
Small chips are quick to repair. Leave them and they collect dirt, stain and, on metal baths, rust, so it’s worth getting them done early.
Signs you need bath repair in Nether Blainslie
Acrylic baths that crack nearly always have a support problem. Legs that are not adjusted, a missing cradle or a soft floor let the bath move until the acrylic gives way.
Typical reasons for a call-out include:
- A failed DIY repair that’s discoloured or lifting
- Damage done while the bathroom was being fitted
- Impact holes in acrylic
- Rusty patches near the plughole

Repair or replace: which is better?
Swapping a damaged bath for a new one usually means a plumber, removing the old bath, re-tiling and a new panel and getting rid of the old bath. Repairing it deals only with the damage in one visit. Prices start from £95. Instead of hourly rates, we price the entire job up front. Damage, material and access decide it, and doing several items at once reduces it.
What you get with us
- Colour-matched on site
- Nothing taken out or refitted
- Most jobs done in one visit
