Bath repair in North Motherwell without replacing anything
A repair fixes just the damaged area and blends it into the rest of the bath, which costs far less than replacing a fitted bath. You can generally use the bath the following day. We regularly repair acrylic, whirlpool & spa baths and roll-top & freestanding, and people most frequently call us about rust spots around the plughole and an old repair that has yellowed or come loose.
All of our repairs are guaranteed for twelve months. If something goes wrong with the work, we come back.

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. Instead of hourly rates, we price the entire job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and doing several items at once reduces it.

- Cracks in parts of an acrylic bath we cannot get to from below

When to call us in North Motherwell
The usual cause is something heavy dropped into the bath, and building work is a common culprit. Acrylic baths crack for a different reason: poor support underneath, so the bath flexes when it’s full.
People usually call us after spotting something like this:
- A failed DIY repair that is discoloured or lifting
- Cracks in an acrylic bath
- Chips under the taps
- Snagging damage from a refit
What your quote should include
- How long the guarantee is and what it covers
- How to look after the finish
- What preparation is included
- Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?
Should I try a DIY kit first?
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 usually cheaper.
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.
For landlords and businesses
Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in North Motherwell use us as well as householders. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it generally costs far less than a refit.
We’re used to working with agents and managing companies. Just send pictures, the address and how to get access and we’ll handle the rest.
What bath repair costs
Prices start from £95. You’ll know the full cost before you book. We take into account:
- The size and number of damaged areas
- What kind of damage it is
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- Access to the area
No two jobs are quite the same, so each one is priced on its own. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all make a difference, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.
Getting a price from pictures
It only takes a minute to photograph the damage. Please include:
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- What it’s made of, if you know
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
Most customers in North Motherwell get their price from pictures. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we will send back a fixed quote and some dates.
The process
Here’s how a visit generally runs: we arrive on time, sheet and mask the area around the job, carry out the work and tidy away. Allow a few hours, depending on the damage from start to finish. Before leaving, we tell you how long to leave it and how to care for it.
- Dust sheets and masking go down around the bath.
- The damaged area is cleaned, keyed and degreased.
- Filler goes in and is sanded flush once it has set.
- Colour and gloss are matched to the surrounding surface.
- We tidy up and tell you when the bath can be used, usually the day after.
Preparing for the visit
- Ensure the room can be ventilated
- Let us know which floor the room is on
- Make sure the area is dry
How to get a price
You don’t need a survey visit. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we will come back to you with a fixed figure.

North Motherwell questions
Is a holed acrylic bath repairable?
Usually, yes, if we can reach behind it. We back the hole, fill it and refinish the surface.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
Generally, if the item is otherwise sound. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. If replacing would be better, we will say so.
What happens once I’ve sent pictures?
We check the damage, the material and your postcode, then reply with a quote with dates.
Do you come to North Motherwell?
Yes. We cover the whole UK and come to North Motherwell. Send pictures and we’ll quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
How much does bath repair cost in North Motherwell?
Prices start from £95. We give a fixed price based on pictures of the damage. Send a close-up and a photo of the whole item and your postcode.
Is the work guaranteed?
Yes: twelve months. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.
Is it messy?
We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and tidy up before we leave.
Do you do work for letting agents?
Yes. We carry out repairs for homeowners, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses across North Lanarkshire.
Keeping it looking good
Good habits make a big difference to how long a repair lasts:
- Use a soft cloth and washing-up liquid for everyday cleaning
- Have new chips seen to early
- Don’t leave razors or cans standing in the bath
- Avoid scourers, wire wool and gritty cream cleaners
Use gentle, non-abrasive cleaners and try not to drop heavy bottles on the repair. Deal with new chips early, before rust can start.
A small chip is a quick job. Leave them and they collect dirt, stain and, on metal baths, rust, so it’s worth getting them done early.
