Materials and what they mean for the repair

Composite and resin

Composite baths are dense and solid. Chips and scratches can be filled and colour-matched, just like other baths.

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.

How to look after the repair

Simple care helps the repair last. Our advice:

  • Make sure an acrylic bath is firm underfoot
  • Do not scrub with anything abrasive
  • Use a soft cloth and washing-up liquid for everyday cleaning
  • Rinse it down after each bath

In the first few days, avoid putting weight or bottles on the repair. After that, clean it as you would the rest of the bath.

If an acrylic bath has a crack, stop showering in it until it’s repaired. Each time it flexes, the crack grows, and it can start to leak underneath.

Honest limits

Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:

  • Wear across the entire surface, which needs re-enamelling
  • Acrylic cracks with no access behind them
  • A steel bath rusted through

Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly before booking.

Materials we repair

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

What bath repair costs

Repairs from £95. Prices are worked out job by job, from your photos. What matters most is:

  • How hard the colour is to match
  • How many areas need work
  • What kind of damage it is
  • How easy the damage is to reach

Rather than charging by the hour, we price the whole job up front. Damage, material and access decide it, and combining items on one visit brings it down.

Quotes from your photos

It only takes a minute to photograph the damage, and it saves a visit. Please include:

  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • A wider photo showing the whole bath

If you’re in Scotlandwell and want a price, the easiest route is pictures: one close up, one from further back, plus your postcode. You’ll get a fixed quote with dates to choose from.

Work for landlords and builders

Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which matters when someone is living in the home.

Hospitality businesses can’t afford rooms out of action for long, so we keep visits short and tidy. We can work around your bookings.

Questions from Scotlandwell

Is a bath repair durable?

It should, as long as the bath is firm and the area was prepared well. It carries our one-year guarantee.

Is a holed acrylic bath repairable?

Normally, yes, if we can reach behind it. The hole is backed, filled and refinished to match.

Can I add another job to the visit?

Of course, and it generally saves money. Send pictures of everything together and we will quote them together.

How long does the repair take to cure?

Typically the day after. We confirm the time before we leave.

Do you cover Scotlandwell?

Yes, we do. Repair technicians travel to Scotlandwell from across the region, with no extra charge for travel.

Will the price change on the day?

Your quote covers the damage in the pictures. If there’s more, we’ll tell you before starting.

I’m a tenant. Can you help?

Of course. Ask your landlord first, and we can send them the quote if that helps.

Can you repair a chip on a coloured bath?

Yes, we match coloured baths too. The colour is tinted by hand on the day.

How it works

A typical visit goes like this: we arrive at the agreed slot, sheet and mask the area around the job, carry out the work and clear up. Allow a few hours. Before we go, we will explain when it can be used and how to care for it.

  1. We start by cleaning the damage and taking out loose enamel and rust.
  2. We fill the damage and sand it flush with the surrounding surface.
  3. We tint the finish on the day to suit your bath’s shade of white or colour.
  4. Finish coats go on, then the repair is polished to blend in.
  5. We leave it to cure; you can generally use the bath the following day.

How to prepare

  • Point us to the nearest place to park
  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive

Ask for a price

  • Chips under the taps
  • Scratches you can feel with a fingernail

How to compare quotes

DIY kit or professional repair?

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.

A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it will not stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.
