Bath repair in Partick without replacing anything
A typical bath repair is a few hours’ work, and you can generally bathe again the day after. You won’t need a plumber or tiler, because nothing is disconnected. Typical jobs include rusty patches near the plughole and damage done while the bathroom was being fitted, on pressed steel enamel, whirlpool & spa baths and cast iron enamel.
Every job is backed for twelve months, and the guarantee is the same wherever you live. We return to put right any problem with the work.

What bath repair costs
Repairs from £95. You’ll know the full cost before booking. We take into account:
- What kind of damage it is
- Doing more than one item at once
- Unusual colours or finishes
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
Our prices are the same across the UK, with no extra for Partick. The job itself decides the price: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.
Quotes from your photos
We price nearly every job from pictures. This is what to send:
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- Any details about the material
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
There’s no need for us to visit first. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price.

- We tint the finish by hand to match the bath.
- The repair is polished to the same gloss as the bath and left to cure.

Advice
When a repair is not the answer
In fairness, some problems need a different fix:
- Leaking fittings, which need a plumber
- Cracks in acrylic we can’t reach from underneath
- Wear across the entire surface, which needs re-enamelling
Not sure? Send pictures and we will give you a straight answer.

Looking after it afterwards
Once the work has cured, treat it gently:
- Protect the bath with a towel when doing jobs nearby
- Give the bath a quick rinse after use
- Avoid scourers, wire wool and gritty cream cleaners
- Don’t leave a fresh chip for long
In the first few days, avoid putting weight or bottles on the repair. After that, normal gentle cleaning is fine.
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.
Work for landlords and builders
We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, putting right damage done during fitting so nothing needs replacing. We’re CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.
Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs in Glasgow and across the UK. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which is easier on the people living there.
What your bath is made of matters
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 baths are thick and very strong, finished with fired enamel. Chips can rust if left, but the bath itself lasts for generations, which makes it well worth repairing.
Partick questions
I tried a repair kit. Can you fix it?
Yes. We remove the old filler and start again. Tell us about it when you send photos.
Can pets and children be at home?
Just keep them out of the work area. We’ll tell you when the room can be used again.
Can you repair something that’s been repaired before?
Most of the time. Let us know what was used before and we’ll plan for it.
Do you work for landlords and businesses?
Yes. We carry out repairs for homeowners, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses across Glasgow.
Is a repair better than a new one?
In most cases, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. We will be honest if it’s not worth it.
Can you match an avocado or pink bath?
Yes. We mix the colour on the day to match, including pastel and older colours.
How soon can you come?
That depends on our diary for your area. Send photos with your postcode and we will reply with the earliest dates.
What happens next?
We check the damage, the material and your postcode, then reply with a quote and the next dates we have.
DIY kit or professional repair?
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, then guarantee it for a year.
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
