Bath Repair in New Farm Loch
Our repair technicians come to New Farm Loch for chip and crack repairs to enamel, acrylic and cast iron baths. Nothing is taken out, and the work is guaranteed.

- Rust that has eaten right through a steel bath
- Cracks in parts of an acrylic bath we cannot get to from below
If in doubt, send photos and we’ll say what we think before you book.

How we handle bath repair in New Farm Loch
A damaged bath does not have to mean a new bathroom. We fill the damage, shape it to the curve of the bath and refinish it, with the colour mixed on site. If you are dealing with chips under the taps and damage done while the bathroom was being fitted, we can generally put it right, whatever the material.
Peace of mind is built in: each job carries a one-year guarantee, and we explain what it covers before booking.

Should you replace it?
A new bath costs more than the bath itself: removal and disposal, plumbing, a new panel, tiling and decorating. A repair is one job, done in one visit. Our bath repair starts from £95. A few things move the price: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Send photos and you will get a fixed figure.

Repairs by material
Acrylic
Acrylic feels warm and is light, but it needs firm support underneath. Repairs to cracks are reinforced from the back.
Cast iron
Cast iron is heavy and rigid, with a fused enamel surface. A chip down to the iron can rust, but the body of the bath lasts a very long time, so it’s always worth repairing.

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 typically cheaper.
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.
The process
Arrival times are agreed in advance, so you know when to expect us. Once we are there, the work takes a few hours, depending on the damage for most jobs. The room is left tidy and ready to use once it has cured.
- We protect the bath and the floor around it.
- We clean, key and degrease the damage.
- We fill it, let it set, then sand it flush.
- Colour and gloss are matched to the surrounding surface.
- We clear up and give you the curing time, normally until the day after.
Preparing for the visit
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
- Clear the area around the damage
- Let the surface dry out before the visit
Ask for a price
Pricing is simple: take a close-up of the damage and a picture from further back, send them to us with your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote. There is no charge for the quote and you are under no obligation.
Related advice
Looking after it afterwards
How the surface is treated afterwards matters. Here’s what we suggest:
- Use a soft cloth and washing-up liquid for everyday cleaning
- Don’t leave a fresh chip for long
- A dripping tap stains enamel, so fix it early
- Check that an acrylic bath doesn’t move when you stand in it
Don’t leave razors, cans or hair grips in the bath, as they can leave rust marks. A dripping tap should be fixed early, too.
Don’t leave a chip on a steel or cast iron bath. Once water reaches the metal, rust begins, and a rust spot is a bigger repair than a clean chip.
Questions from New Farm Loch
Is a cracked acrylic bath repairable?
Frequently, yes, if we can reach the underside to reinforce it. Take off the bath panel and check, or send us a picture.
Can I get a quote without a visit?
Typically, yes. Clear pictures let us give you a fixed price without visiting.
What if the damage is worse than the pictures show?
We stop, show you and agree any change before carrying on. Nothing extra is done without your say-so.
Will it make a mess?
No. The work area is masked and covered, and we leave the room clean.
How long before I can use the bath?
Normally the following day. We confirm the time before we leave.
How invisible is a bath repair?
On a glossy bath, you will struggle to find it. On worn enamel, it can look shinier than the rest.
Is there a guarantee?
Yes, for a year. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.
Is a bath repair durable?
A properly prepared repair should last a long time, and ours come with a one-year guarantee. Gentle cleaning helps.
When to call us in New Farm Loch
The usual cause is something heavy dropped into the bath, and a lot happen during bathroom refits. Cracks in acrylic have a different cause: poor support underneath, so the bath flexes when it’s full.
The most common problems we are called about are:
- A failed DIY repair that’s discoloured or lifting
- Snagging damage from a refit
- Deep scratches in acrylic
- Cracks in an acrylic bath
Questions to ask before booking
- What preparation is included
- Whether they match the colour on site
