Common questions in New Luce
Can tenants book a repair?
We are happy to deal with the tenant, landlord or agent. Just ensure the landlord agrees.
Do I have to be there?
Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time we agree with you.
Can you quote from pictures?
Yes, almost always. Clear pictures let us give you a fixed quote without visiting.
Are there extra charges for New Luce?
We don’t add a call-out fee. The fixed quote covers the visit and the work.
Do you work in New Luce?
Yes. We cover the whole UK and travel to New Luce and the rest of Dumfries and Galloway. Send photos and we’ll quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
When can you do it?
It depends on the time of year and where you are. Send photos with your postcode and we will reply with the earliest dates.
Is the work guaranteed?
Yes, for a year. If there is a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.
Can landlords book you?
Yes. We carry out repairs for homeowners, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses.
Keeping it looking good
After the repair has cured, a few habits help it last:
- Check that an acrylic bath does not move when you stand in it
- Protect the bath with a towel when doing jobs nearby
- Clean with warm water and a mild detergent
- Rinse it down after each bath
Care for the repair the same way as the bath: warm water, washing-up liquid and a soft cloth. Avoid scourers and gritty cream cleaners.
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 early repair keeps the cost down.
Common problems we fix in New Luce
Baths take more knocks than people expect: bottles, shower heads and razors are dropped every day, and taps and wastes are tightened against the surface. Sooner or later, most baths pick up a chip.
The things clients normally mention when they call are:
- A hole punched through by something heavy
- Cracks in an acrylic bath
- Damage beneath the taps
- A kit repair that didn’t last
What your quote should include
- Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?
- Aftercare advice
- How the room is protected while they work
- Whether the price covers travel
Repairs by material
Composite and resin
Composite baths are dense and solid. Chips and scratches are filled and matched, just like other baths.
Acrylic
An acrylic bath is a moulded sheet strengthened from below. They do not rust, but they can crack, scratch or be holed, and a crack only stays repaired if it’s supported underneath.
Landlord and trade work in New Luce
For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover, saving last-minute replacements. We can visit several plots in one trip.
We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which matters when someone is living in the home.
How it works
A typical visit goes like this: we arrive at the agreed slot, protect everything around the work area, do the job and clear up. Plan for a few hours, depending on the damage from start to finish. Before we go, we will explain when it can be used and what to avoid for the first few days.
- First, we check the damage against your photos and agree the plan.
- Any rust and loose material comes out, and the area is degreased.
- The damage is filled in layers and shaped to the curve of the bath.
- The colour is tinted by hand until it matches.
- Finally, it’s polished to match the shine and left to cure.
Preparing for the visit
- Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
- Let the surface dry out before the visit
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
Ask for a price
For a price in New Luce, photos are the quickest way: one close up, one from further back, plus your postcode. We reply with a fixed quote and our next available dates.
Advice
Repair or replace: which is better?
Replacing a fitted bath usually means a plumber, removing the old bath, re-tiling and a new panel and disposing of the old one. A repair fixes just the damaged area in a single visit. Prices start from £95. Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is usually a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. The quote lists exactly what you are paying for.
Why book with us
- Dust sheets down, tidy finish
- Same prices wherever you are
- Colour mixed on the day to match
- CHAS and Constructionline accredited

Should I try a DIY kit first?
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it will not stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.
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.
