How we handle bath repair in Provanmill
We repair enamelled steel, cast iron and acrylic baths. Each material is repaired a little differently: rust is treated on metal baths, while cracks in acrylic are reinforced from underneath. Common call-outs are for a cracked acrylic bath and rusty patches near the plughole, on acrylic, cast iron enamel and pressed steel enamel.
We stand behind the work with a one-year guarantee, so you’re not left on your own once we have gone.

What happens on the day
The work is clean and fairly quiet, so you can stay at home while we are there. Protection goes down first, then the work takes a few hours. At the end we talk you through how soon it can be used and how to care for it.
- We start by looking at the damage and confirming the plan with you.
- Loose enamel, rust and dirt are removed so the repair can bond.
- We build up the filler in layers, shaping it to the bath.
- The colour is tinted by hand until it matches.
- Finally, it’s polished to match the shine and left to cure.
Before we arrive
- Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
- Make sure the area is dry
How to get a price
There is no need for us to visit first. Nearly every job can be priced from photos: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we’ll come back to you with a fixed figure.

Do you need bath repair in Provanmill?
Rust tends to begin where water collects, around the waste, under the taps or in an old chip. Water on bare metal causes rust that creeps under the surrounding enamel.
Customers generally contact us about:
- A failed DIY repair that is discoloured or lifting
- A chip where the taps sit
- Rusty patches near the plughole
- Cracks in an acrylic bath
Questions to ask before you book
- How long it needs to cure
- What protection goes down before work starts
- If travel is included in the price
- Whether a trained technician does the job
Should I try a DIY kit first?
We understand the appeal of fixing it 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.
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.
What your bath is made of matters
Composite and resin
Composite baths are dense and solid, and frequently 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. The enamel is the part that wears or chips, and that’s what we repair.
Questions from Provanmill
Is a holed acrylic bath repairable?
Usually. Send us a photo of the hole and one from under the bath if you can.
When can I have a bath again?
Normally by the following day, though it depends on what we’ve done.
Do you cover Provanmill?
Yes. We work across the UK and come to Provanmill and the rest of Glasgow. Send us pictures for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
What does bath repair cost?
Repairs from £95. Every job gets a fixed quote based on photos of the damage. Send a close-up and a picture of the whole item and your postcode.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
Generally, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. We’ll be honest if it’s not worth it.
What if the damage is worse than the photos show?
Your quote covers the damage in the photos. If there is more, we’ll tell you before starting.
Do I need to be at home?
Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time that suits you.
Will there be a smell?
Expect a mild smell while we’re working that clears as it cures.
Keeping it looking good
Looking after the surface is easy, and it makes a real difference:
- Stick to mild cleaners and a soft cloth
- If an acrylic bath flexes, have its feet adjusted
- Rinse the bath after use, especially in hard water areas
- Store metal items away from the bath
Give the repair the full curing time we recommend before using the bath. After that, gentle cleaning keeps it looking good.
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.
Work for landlords and builders
We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, fixing chips and scratches before handover. We’re CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.
Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Provanmill use us as well as householders. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it costs much less than replacing.
Repair or replace: which is better?
Swapping a damaged bath for a new one generally means a plumber, lifting out the old bath, re-tiling and a new panel and disposing of the old one. A repair deals only with the damage in one visit. Prices start from £95. There are no surprise extras on the day. The price we quote from your photos is the price you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.
Why book with us
- Same prices wherever you are
- CHAS and Constructionline accredited
- Repair technicians who travel to you, UK-wide
- Everything repaired in place

When a repair is not the answer
In fairness, some problems need a different fix:
- Leaks from the waste or overflow fittings (a plumber’s job)
- A bath that moves underfoot, until its support is fixed
- Metal that has corroded all the way through
Not sure? Send pictures and we will give you a straight answer.
