Landlords, agents and businesses in Ruisgarry

We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams in Na h-Eileanan Siar and across the UK. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which is easier on the people living there.

We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out pictures. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.

What affects the price in Ruisgarry

Repairs from £95. You will not pay by the hour. The price depends on:

  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • What kind of damage it is
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off

Rather than charging by the hour, we price the whole job up front. Damage, material and access decide it.

Send pictures for a quote

A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. It helps if you send:

  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • The material, if you know it

For a price in Ruisgarry, the easiest route is pictures: a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode. You will get a fixed quote with dates to choose from.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.

It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is usually the cheaper route.

Ruisgarry questions

I tried a repair kit. Can you fix it?

Regularly. We strip it out, deal with any rust and repair it again.

Will the repair show?

We aim for a repair you cannot easily find. The rest of the bath’s condition makes a difference.

When can you do it?

We’ll give you dates with your quote. Tell us if you need it done quickly.

Do you cover Ruisgarry?

We do. We send a technician to Ruisgarry for every job, and the price is the same as everywhere else.

Is it safe with children and pets around?

Keep pets and children away from the work area on the day, so the repair is not disturbed while it cures.

Which areas do you work in?

We cover the whole UK, including Ruisgarry and the rest of Na h-Eileanan Siar. Send your postcode with your pictures and we’ll confirm dates.

Does someone need to be in?

Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. You don’t need to watch us work.

Are you a vetted contractor?

Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.

Different materials, different repairs

Cast iron

A cast iron bath is heavy enough that most people never want to move it. The enamel is the part that wears or chips, and that’s the part we put right.

Pressed steel

Under the enamel of a steel bath is thin metal. Exposed steel rusts quickly, so we treat and seal the metal before filling.

When a repair isn’t the answer

We will always be straight with you, so here’s what a repair won’t do:

  • A whole bath that is dull or worn, where a full re-enamel is the better fix
  • A bath that flexes because its feet or cradle have failed (that needs fixing first)
  • Acrylic cracks with no access behind them

Not sure? Send pictures and we’ll give you a straight answer before booking.

What we work on

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

Aftercare tips

A little care keeps the finish looking good. Our advice:

  • Clean with warm water and a mild detergent
  • Protect the bath with a towel when doing jobs nearby
  • Rinse it down after each bath
  • Fix dripping taps early to stop staining and limescale

Care for the repair the same way as the bath: a soft cloth and washing-up liquid is all it needs. Keep scouring pads and gritty cleaners away from it.

Stop using the bath if a crack lets water through until it’s repaired. Leaks under a bath can damage floors and ceilings.

What we do, step by step

We begin by going over the job with you, so there are no surprises. Then the area is sheeted and masked and we start. It normally takes a few hours, depending on the damage.

  1. First, we check the damage against your photos and agree the plan.
  2. Loose enamel, rust and dirt are removed so the repair can bond.
  3. We build up the filler in layers, shaping it to the bath.
  4. We tint the finish by hand to match the bath.
  5. Finally, it’s polished to match the shine and left to cure.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Let us know if it has been repaired before
  • Ensure the area is dry
  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access

Ask for a price

Pricing is simple: take a close-up of the damage and a photo from further back, send them over with your postcode, and you will get a fixed quote back. Quotes are free and no obligation.
