Bath repair in Plocrapool, 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 and the tiles around it. Most baths can be used again the next day. If you are dealing with hairline or through cracks in acrylic and damage done while the bathroom was being fitted, we can help, on acrylic, whirlpool & spa baths and cast iron enamel alike.
A one-year guarantee comes as standard.

What we can’t put right
A few problems are outside what a surface repair can do:
- Water coming from the waste or taps rather than the bath
- Rust that has eaten right through a steel bath
- A whole bath that’s dull or worn, where a full re-enamel is the better fix
If in doubt, send pictures and we will say what we think.
What we work on
- Roll-top & freestanding
- Cast iron enamel
- Whirlpool & spa baths
- Acrylic
- Pressed steel enamel
How to look after the repair
How the surface is treated afterwards matters:
- A dripping tap stains enamel, so fix it early
- Cover the bath during DIY or decorating
- Have new chips seen to early
- Use a soft cloth and washing-up liquid for everyday cleaning
A repaired bath needs no special treatment, beyond gentle cleaning. Skip bleach and gritty creams and rinse after use.
Until we visit, a strip of waterproof tape over the damage helps, to keep water out. Take it off before we arrive.
What affects the price in Plocrapool
Prices start from £95. You will not pay by the hour. The price is based on:
- What the surface is made of
- Doing more than one item at once
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- How easy the damage is to reach
What it costs depends on the type and amount of damage, the material and how many items we do on one visit. We give a fixed price from your pictures, so there are no surprises on the day.
Getting a price from pictures
Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what to send:
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- Something in shot to show the size
- One sharp close-up of the damage
Upload pictures of the damage and a wider shot of the entire item, and tell us you are in Plocrapool, and we’ll come back with a fixed quote.
Should I try a DIY kit first?
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is generally the cheaper route.
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.
FAQs for Plocrapool
Is my repair covered?
All our work carries a one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.
Is a bath repair durable?
It should, as long as the bath is firm and the area was prepared well. It’s covered by our one-year guarantee.
Is a holed acrylic bath repairable?
Generally, yes, if we can reach behind it. We back the hole, fill it and refinish the surface.
Can you repair several things at once?
Yes, and it’s frequently cheaper. Send pictures of everything together and we’ll quote them together.
Do I need to be at home?
Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time that suits you.
Do you work for landlords and businesses?
Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as householders across Na h-Eileanan Siar.
When can I have a bath again?
Normally within a day, though it depends on what we’ve done.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
Generally, when the rest is in good condition. A repair avoids removal and making good. We’ll tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.

The process
Expect a friendly, tidy visit. We agree the arrival time in advance, cover and mask the work area, then carry out the work, which normally takes a morning or an afternoon. If we find something your photos didn’t show, we will explain it before carrying on.
- Dust sheets and masking go down around the bath.
- We clean, key and degrease the damage.
- Filler goes in and is sanded flush once it has set.
- We match both the colour and the shine.
- We clear up and give you the curing time, normally until the following day.
Getting ready for the visit
- Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
- Tell us about parking, stairs or access
- Keep a parking space free if you can
How to get a price
Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: take one close-up and one wider shot of the bath, add your postcode and send them to us. What comes back is a fixed quote, not a guess.

Do you need bath repair in Plocrapool?
The usual cause is something heavy dropped into the bath, and building work is a common culprit. Cracks in acrylic have a different cause: the bath isn’t properly supported, so it flexes under weight.
The most common problems we’re called about are:
- Chips on the rim or sides
- Rusty patches near the plughole
- A failed DIY repair that’s discoloured or lifting
- Damage done while the bathroom was being fitted
What your quote should include
- What preparation is included
- How long it needs to cure
- What happens if they find more damage
- Whether they match the colour on site
Materials and what they mean for the repair
Pressed steel
Steel baths and trays have a thin metal body under the enamel. Exposed steel rusts quickly, so we treat and seal the metal before filling.
Composite and resin
Composite baths are dense and solid. Chips and scratches are filled and matched, just like other baths.
Repairing versus replacing in Plocrapool
A new bath costs more than the bath itself: taking out the old one, plumbing, tiling, a panel and redecorating. With a repair, it’s one visit and one price. Prices start from £95. A repair normally costs much less than people expect, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Photos let us give you the exact figure.
