Bath repair near Pitlochry

Different materials, different repairs

Cast iron

Cast iron baths are so heavy that repairing in place makes obvious sense. The enamel is the part that wears or chips, and that’s what we repair.

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.

Bath repair in Pitlochry, done in place

We see every kind of bath damage: chips from dropped bottles, rust round the plughole, cracks in acrylic and holes from falling tools. Each is repaired in place. Whether it’s cracks in an acrylic bath and a chipped rim or side, we can normally put it right, on acrylic, pressed steel enamel and roll-top & freestanding alike.

Whatever the size of the job, it’s backed by a one-year guarantee in Pitlochry and across Perth and Kinross.

How we price bath repair

Prices start from £95. There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price is based on:

  • What the surface is made of
  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • Access to the area
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off

We do not add extras on the day. What we quote from your photos is what you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.

Getting a price from photos

Good pictures mean an accurate price. Here’s what helps:

  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • The material, if you know it

We price from pictures so you don’t have to wait in for a survey. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through, and you will get a fixed figure back.

Common problems we fix in Pitlochry

A bath gets knocked about more than you’d think: everyday items get dropped into it all the time, and fittings press hard against the enamel. Sooner or later, most baths pick up a chip.

Common reasons people in Pitlochry contact us include:

  • Scratches you can feel with a fingernail
  • A hole punched through by something heavy
  • A kit repair that didn’t last
  • Damage done while the bathroom was being fitted

What to look for in a quote

  • Whether they match the colour on site
  • Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?
  • When it can be used again
  • What happens if the damage is worse than the photos show

Choosing a repair company

Why repair rather than replace?

Many people think a damaged bath means a new one. Generally it does not: a repair keeps the bath in service for years, and costs far less than the disruption of a replacement. Our bath repair starts from £95. The price depends on the type and amount of damage, what it’s made of and how many items we do on one visit. You get a fixed quote from your pictures, so you know the cost before booking.

Why book with us

  • Nothing taken out or refitted
  • Honest advice, even when it means no job
  • Technicians who travel to you, UK-wide
  • We leave the room as we found it

What information do you need?

Use the quote form or ring 0345 017 0787, and we’ll take it from there.

Can you repair a crack in an acrylic bath?

Typically, yes, as long as we can get to the back of the crack to support it. Check under the bath panel, or send us a photo.

Do you come to Pitlochry?

Yes. We cover the whole UK and travel to Pitlochry. Send us photos for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

Can you do more than one item on the same visit?

Of course, and it generally saves money. Just add the extra items to your photos and we will quote them together.

Can tenants book a repair?

Of course. Ask your landlord first, and we can send them the quote if that helps.

Do you work for landlords and businesses?

Yes. We carry out repairs for householders, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses in Pitlochry.

How long does the repair take to cure?

Normally by the following day, depending on the repair.

How the visit works

Arrival times are agreed in advance, so you are not left guessing. On site, it takes a morning or an afternoon. We leave the room clean and ready to use once it has cured.

  1. We start by looking at the damage and confirming the plan with you.
  2. Any rust and loose material comes out, and the area is degreased.
  3. The damage is filled in layers and shaped to the curve of the bath.
  4. We tint the finish by hand to match the bath.
  5. The repair is polished to the same gloss as the bath and left to cure.

Before we arrive

  • Open a window if you can
  • Keep a parking space free if you can
  • Let us know about parking or access

How to get a price

For most jobs, pictures are all we need to give you a price. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we will send back a fixed quote and some dates.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, it’s worth having it done properly.

We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.

When we would advise against a repair

Some jobs aren’t right for a repair, for example:

  • Leaking fittings, which need a plumber
  • A bath that moves underfoot, until its support is fixed
  • A bath worn all over, where resurfacing makes more sense

Not sure? Send photos and we will give you a straight answer before booking.

Materials we repair

  • Roll-top & freestanding
  • Pressed steel enamel
  • Acrylic
  • Cast iron enamel
  • Whirlpool & spa baths

Landlord and trade work in Pitlochry

For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover. Several plots can be done in one visit to keep costs down.

Rental properties take more wear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.
