We regularly repair cast iron enamel, whirlpool & spa baths and pressed steel enamel, and the jobs we see most are impact holes in acrylic and an old repair that has yellowed or come loose.

Scotland Street questions
Do the materials smell?
There may be a mild smell during the work, which fades afterwards.
Is a bath repair permanent?
Done properly, a repair lasts for years, and ours come with a one-year guarantee. Gentle cleaning helps.
Do you do work for letting agents?
Yes, often. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
Yes, but check with your landlord or agent first. Many landlords are happy for a repair to be arranged.
Can you repair something that’s been repaired before?
Most of the time. Tell us what was done before.
What happens next?
You’ll get a fixed quote back, plus dates. You are under no obligation.
Can you repair a failed DIY repair?
Regularly. We strip it out, deal with any rust and repair it again.
How long does the repair take to cure?
Normally by the following day, depending on the repair.
Landlords, agents and businesses in Scotland Street
Letting agents frequently send us pictures straight from the inventory. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.
We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Scotland Street as well as householders. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it costs much less than replacing.
How it works
We turn up at the time we agreed with you and checks the damage against your pictures first. The floor and nearby surfaces are covered before we open a single tin. The work itself takes a few hours, depending on the damage, and we leave the room as we found it.
- We clean the area and remove any loose enamel or rust.
- Next we fill the damage and sand it smooth and level.
- We tint the finish on the day to suit your bath’s shade of white or colour.
- We build up the finish and polish it into the surrounding enamel.
- Once it has cured, usually by the next day, the bath is ready to use.
Preparing for the visit
- Point us to the nearest place to park
- Open a window if you can
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work

Do you need bath repair in Scotland Street?
Glass and heavy bottles cause more chips than anything else, with dropped shower heads close behind. Taps and wastes cause problems too: water collects there, so chips nearby rust quickly.
Customers generally contact us about:
- Impact holes in acrylic
- Rust spots around the plughole
- Damage done while the bathroom was being fitted
- Deep scratches in acrylic
Questions to ask before booking
- A fixed quote, and whether VAT is included
- If travel is included in the price
- How to look after the finish
- How long it needs to cure
Looking after it afterwards
Most damage we see is avoidable. A few tips:
- Do not leave razors or cans standing in the bath
- If an acrylic bath flexes, have its feet adjusted
- Have new chips seen to early
- Keep abrasive pads and gritty cleaners away from the bath
Treat the repaired area like the rest of the bath: warm water, washing-up liquid and a soft cloth. Avoid scourers and gritty cream cleaners.
A chip on a metal bath shouldn’t be left. Once water reaches the metal, rust begins, and a rust spot is a bigger repair than a clean chip.

What else we do in Scotland Street
Should you replace it?
Think about the hidden costs of a new bath: removal and disposal, plumbing, a new panel, tiling and decorating. With a repair, it’s one visit and one price. Prices start from £95. A few things move the price: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

How we price bath repair
Repairs from £95. A fixed quote means you know the cost before you book. We take into account:
- How many areas need work
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
Every job is a little different, so we price each one individually. The size and type of damage, the material and access all play a part, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.
How to get a fixed price
A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. Try to include:
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- Where you are, by postcode
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- Any details about the material
Email us photos of the damage and one of the whole item, and tell us you are in Scotland Street, and we will come back with a fixed quote.
DIY kit or professional repair?
A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it won’t stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
What we cannot put right
Before booking, it’s worth knowing the limits:
- Rust that has eaten right through a steel bath
- Flexing caused by a failed cradle or loose feet
- Cracks in acrylic we can’t reach from underneath
Not sure? Send photos and we’ll give you a straight answer before you book.
What we work on
- Acrylic
- Roll-top & freestanding
- Whirlpool & spa baths
- Pressed steel enamel
- Cast iron enamel
