Bath repair at your home in Newport-on-Tay
Whatever has happened to the bath, we aim for the same result: a repair that is smooth, sound and hard to spot. We prepare the area properly, fill and shape it, then match the colour and gloss so it’s level with the surrounding surface. If you’re dealing with a kit repair that didn’t last and chips on the rim or sides, we can usually put it right, on cast iron enamel, pressed steel enamel and roll-top & freestanding alike.
Every job is backed for twelve months in Newport-on-Tay and everywhere else. We return to put right any problem with the work.

Newport-on-Tay questions
Do you cover the whole of Fife?
Across the UK, and that includes Newport-on-Tay. Our prices are the same everywhere.
Is there any odour?
Some materials have a smell while they’re applied, which is why we ventilate. It fades as everything cures.
Can you quote from pictures?
Normally, yes. Clear photos let us give you a fixed quote without visiting.
How much does bath repair cost in Newport-on-Tay?
Prices start from £95. Because every job differs, we price from pictures. You will get a fixed figure before booking.
Will the repair show?
The goal is a repair that blends in. How well it disappears depends on the condition of the rest of the bath.
Can you fix rust around the plughole?
Yes, very frequently. The rust is cut back to clean metal and sealed before we fill and finish it.
Do I have to be there?
Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time that suits you.
Do you cover Newport-on-Tay?
Yes, we do. Technicians travel to Newport-on-Tay from across the region, and the price is the same as everywhere else.
DIY kit or professional repair?
A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it won’t stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair will not last.
Landlord and trade work in Newport-on-Tay
We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out pictures. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.
Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets need rooms back in use quickly, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We’ll fit around changeovers where we can.
How we price bath repair
Prices start from £95. We give every job a fixed price from photos. These are the things that affect it:
- The material and finish
- How many areas need work
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
Rather than charging by the hour, we price the entire job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and doing several items at once reduces it.
How to get a fixed price
Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what to send:
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- What it’s made of, if you know
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
Call 0345 017 0787 or use the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the whole bath, we can price the job the same day in most cases.
The process
Arrival times are agreed in advance, so you know when to expect us. On site, it takes a few hours, depending on the damage. We leave the room clean and you will know when it can be used.
- First, we check the damage against your pictures and agree the plan.
- Any rust and loose material comes out, and the area is degreased.
- We build up the filler in layers, shaping it to the bath.
- We tint the finish by hand to match the bath.
- Finally, it’s polished to match the shine and left to cure.
Before we arrive
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
- Have a window or extractor fan available
How to get a price
To get a price, send two or three photos using our quote form or ring us. We’ll tell you honestly if a repair is the right fix.

Keeping it looking good
After the repair has cured, a few habits help it last:
- Don’t leave razors or cans standing in the bath
- Fix dripping taps early to stop staining and limescale
- Use a soft cloth and washing-up liquid for everyday cleaning
- Put a towel in the bath if you are working above it
In the first few days, avoid putting weight or bottles on the repair. After that, normal gentle cleaning is fine without abrasive products.
Stop using the bath if a crack lets water through until it’s repaired. Leaks under a bath can damage floors and ceilings.

Why repair rather than replace?
For damage in one or two places, a repair is the obvious choice. It’s a fraction of the cost of a new bath and fitting, it’s done in one visit, and the bathroom stays exactly as it is. Prices start 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. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

- Chips along the edge of the bath
- A chip where the taps sit
- Scuffs and scratches in the surface
- A kit repair that didn’t last

What a repair can’t fix
