Bath repair in Pittenweem, done in place
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. Our repair technicians work on roll-top & freestanding, pressed steel enamel and acrylic, and common reasons people get in touch are holes from dropped items and a failed DIY repair that’s discoloured or lifting.
The work is covered for a year after we finish. If anything isn’t right, ring us and we’ll come back.

DIY kit or professional repair?
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.
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.
When we would advise against a repair
We’ll always be straight with you, so here’s what a repair cannot fix:
- Metal that has corroded all the way through
- A bath that moves underfoot, until its support is fixed
- A whole bath that is dull or worn, where a full re-enamel is the better fix
Send us pictures and we will tell you honestly.

Aftercare tips
Once the work has cured, treat it gently:
- Do not scrub with anything abrasive
- Rinse it down after each bath
- Get a dripping tap fixed promptly
- Do not leave a fresh chip for long
Use gentle, non-abrasive cleaners and try not to drop heavy bottles on the repair. Deal with new chips early, before rust sets in.
If an acrylic bath has a crack, stop showering in it until it’s repaired. Every use opens the crack a little more, and water can get through to the floor below.
Landlords, agents and businesses in Pittenweem
Hospitality businesses can’t afford rooms out of action for long, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We will fit around changeovers where we can.
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.

Your questions about bath repair in Pittenweem
Is there any odour?
Some materials have a smell while they’re applied, so we ventilate the room. It clears as the materials cure.
Do I have to be there?
Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time that suits you.
Will I be able to see the repair?
The goal is a repair that blends in. The rest of the bath’s condition makes a difference, and we will tell you what to expect.
Do you work in Pittenweem?
Yes. We work across the UK and travel to Pittenweem. Send pictures and we will quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
Can you fix rust around the plughole?
Yes. We remove the rust and loose enamel, fill the area, then colour-match the finish.
How long before I can use the bath?
Generally within a day, depending on the repair.
How soon can you come?
That depends on our diary for your area. We’ll offer you dates when we send your quote.
Will you leave a mess?
Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and tidy up before we leave.
What we are called out for in Pittenweem
Glass and heavy bottles cause more chips than anything else. Taps and wastes cause problems too: water sits around them, and any chip there soon rusts.
Typical reasons for a call-out include:
- Rust by the waste and overflow
- A kit repair that didn’t last
- A hole punched through by something heavy
- Chips under the taps
What to look for in a quote
- Whether there are any call-out or travel charges
- What happens if the damage is worse than the photos show
- What preparation is included
- The length of the guarantee and what it covers
Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £95. Prices are worked out job by job. What matters most is:
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- How easy the damage is to reach
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- Whether we combine several jobs
We don’t add extras on the day. The price we quote from your pictures is the price you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.
Send photos for a quote
Good photos mean an accurate price. Here’s what helps:
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- A wider photo showing the whole bath
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: take one close-up and one wider shot of the bath, include your postcode and send them over. You’ll get a fixed price, not an estimate.
What your bath is made of matters
Composite and resin
Stone resin and composite baths are heavy and solid, and often freestanding. Chips and scratches are filled and matched, just like other baths.
Cast iron
Cast iron baths are so heavy that repairing in place makes obvious sense. Only the enamel surface wears or chips, and that is the part we put right.
How it works
On the day itself, there is little for you to do. Let us in and show us the room, and we will take it from there. Most visits take two to three hours for most chips, tidy-up included.
- Dust sheets and masking go down around the bath.
- We clean, key and degrease the damage, and any rust is treated.
- We fill it, let it set, then sand it flush.
- We match both the colour and the shine.
- We tidy up and tell you when the bath can be used, normally the day after.
How to prepare
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
- Clear the area around the damage
- Make sure the room can be ventilated
