Bath repair in Spott, done in place
A typical bath repair is a few hours’ work, and you can generally bathe again the following day. There’s no need to book a plumber or tiler, because nothing is disconnected. If you’re dealing with chips along the edge of the bath and chips caused by builders, we can help, on roll-top & freestanding, pressed steel enamel and whirlpool & spa baths alike.
A one-year guarantee comes as standard.

We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams in East Lothian and across the UK. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which matters when someone is living in the home.

How we price bath repair
Prices start from £95. You will know the full cost before booking. We take into account:
- How much damage there is
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- How hard the colour is to match
- How easy the damage is to reach
No two jobs are quite the same, so we price each one individually. The size and type of damage, the material and access all play a part, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.
Quotes from your pictures
Phone pictures are fine. Just make sure we can see:
- Details of any past repairs
- Natural light rather than flash
- Something in shot to show the size
- Where you are, by postcode
A quote takes minutes to ask for: photograph the damage, then the entire bath, include your postcode and send them to us. What comes back is a fixed quote, not a guess.
Should I try a DIY kit first?
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, ensure the area is clean and completely dry, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.

The process
Here’s how a visit usually runs: we arrive at the agreed slot, protect everything around the work area, carry out the work and clear up. Plan for a few hours, depending on the damage. Before we go, we will explain how long to leave it and what to avoid for the first few days.
- First, we check the damage against your photos and agree the plan.
- Loose enamel, rust and dirt are removed so the repair can bond.
- The damage is filled in layers and shaped to the curve of the bath.
- The colour is tinted by hand until it matches.
- The repair is polished to the same gloss as the bath and left to cure.
Before we arrive
- Make sure the room can be ventilated

Advice
Honest limits
A repair isn’t right for every job, including:
- A bath that flexes because its feet or cradle have failed (that needs fixing first)
- Rust that has eaten right through a steel bath
- Leaking fittings, which need a plumber
Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly.
Surfaces we repair
- Acrylic
- Pressed steel enamel
- Cast iron enamel
- Roll-top & freestanding
- Whirlpool & spa baths
Why repair rather than replace?
When the bath is otherwise sound, repairing beats replacing. It costs less, takes less time and causes far less upheaval, and you keep the bath you chose. Where the entire surface is tired, we may suggest re-enamelling instead. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. We charge the same wherever you are, so there is no premium for Spott. What changes the price is the job itself: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.
Why Spott clients choose us
- Every repair guaranteed for a year
- We leave the room as we found it
- Technicians who travel to you, UK-wide
- No need to remove anything

Your questions about bath repair in Spott
Do you come to Spott?
We do. We send a technician to Spott for every job, and the price is the same as everywhere else.
What information do you need?
Photos of the damage, a picture of the whole bath and your postcode. Then we’ll agree a date.
Can you repair a hole in a bath?
Generally. Send us a picture of the hole and one from under the bath if you can.
Do I need to be at home?
Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time we agree with you.
What if the damage is worse than the photos show?
The price is fixed for what the pictures show. If there is more, we will tell you before starting.
What does bath repair cost?

Do the materials smell?
There may be a mild smell during the work that clears as it cures.

How to look after the repair
Aftercare is simple:
- Protect the bath with a towel when doing jobs nearby
- Have new chips seen to early
- Give the bath a quick rinse after use
- Do not scrub with anything abrasive
A repaired bath needs no special treatment. Skip bleach and gritty creams.
If an acrylic bath has a crack, stop showering in it until it’s repaired. Each time it flexes, the crack grows, and water can get through to the floor below.

- Damage beneath the taps
- Scuffs and scratches in the surface
- Rust spots around the plughole
- Chips along the edge of the bath
