Questions from Scadabhagh
I’m a tenant. Can you help?

Can you match an avocado or pink bath?

Bath repair at your home in Scadabhagh
Whatever the damage, the aim is the same: a smooth, solid repair that blends in. We prepare the area properly, fill and shape it, then match the colour and gloss so it sits flush with the rest of the bath. If you are dealing with scuffs and scratches in the surface and an old repair that has yellowed or come loose, we can typically put it right, on acrylic, cast iron enamel and roll-top & freestanding alike.
A one-year guarantee comes with the work, just as it does everywhere we cover.

How it works
The work is clean and fairly quiet, so you can stay at home while we’re there. Protection goes down first, then the job itself takes a few hours. Before we leave, we explain how soon it can be used and how to look after it.
- Dust sheets and masking go down around the bath.
- We clean, key and degrease the damage, and any rust is treated.
- Filler goes in and is sanded flush once it has set.
- Colour and gloss are matched to the surrounding surface.
- We tidy up and tell you when the bath can be used, normally the next day.
Before we arrive
- Open a window if you can
- Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
How to get a price
Getting a price is easy: snap the damage close up and then the whole item, send them over with your postcode, and you’ll get a fixed price back. There is no charge for the quote and you are under no obligation.
Advice
Work for landlords and builders
For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover. Several plots can be done in one visit to keep costs down.
Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs in Na h-Eileanan Siar and across the UK. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which matters when someone is living in the home.
When to call us in Scadabhagh
Heavy toiletries are the biggest single cause of chips, with dropped shower heads close behind. Taps and wastes cause problems too: water sits around them, and any chip there soon rusts.
Common reasons people in Scadabhagh contact us are:
- A hole punched through by something heavy
- A failed DIY repair that’s discoloured or lifting
- Snagging damage from a refit
- Chips under the taps
What to look for in a quote
- A fixed price, and whether VAT is included
- How to look after the finish
- If travel is included in the price
- How changes to the job are handled
Repair or replace: which is better?
Replacing a fitted bath normally involves a plumber, lifting out the old bath, making good the tiles and panel and disposing of the old one. Repairing it fixes just the damaged area in a single visit. Prices start from £95. A repair generally costs much less than people expect, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

Different materials, different repairs
Composite and resin
Composite baths are dense and solid. Chips and scratches can be filled and colour matched, in much the same way.
Acrylic
Acrylic baths are moulded sheet reinforced underneath. They don’t rust, but they can crack, scratch or be holed, and a crack only stays repaired if it’s supported underneath.
When a repair isn’t the answer
Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:
- Rust that has eaten right through a steel bath
- Cracks in parts of an acrylic bath we cannot get to from below
- A bath worn all over, where resurfacing makes more sense
Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly.
Materials we repair
- Acrylic
- Pressed steel enamel

Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £95. You will know the full cost before booking. We look at:
- How hard the colour is to match
- What kind of damage it is
- What the surface is made of
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
Instead of hourly rates, we price the whole job up front. Damage, material and access decide it, and doing several items at once reduces it.
Send photos for a quote
Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what we need:
- What it’s made of, if you know
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- One picture of the entire bath
There’s no need for us to visit first. Nearly every job can be priced from pictures: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we will come back to you with a fixed figure.
How to care for the repair
Good habits make a big difference to how long a repair lasts:
- Do not scrub with anything abrasive
- Use a soft cloth and washing-up liquid for everyday cleaning
- If an acrylic bath flexes, have its feet adjusted
- Protect the bath with a towel when doing jobs nearby
A repaired bath needs no special treatment, beyond gentle cleaning. Avoid bleach-based and gritty cleaners.
Tape over a fresh chip or crack until it’s repaired, to keep water out. Take it off before we arrive.
