About our bath repair in St Leonards
A repair fixes just the damaged area and blends it into the rest of the bath, which costs far less than replacing a fitted bath and the tiles around it. Most baths can be used again the following day. We are frequently asked to fix cracks in an acrylic bath and damage done while the bathroom was being fitted, on pressed steel enamel, acrylic and cast iron enamel.
All our work comes with a one-year guarantee, wherever you are in South Lanarkshire.

How to care for the repair
Most damage we see is avoidable. These habits help:
- Ensure an acrylic bath is firm underfoot
- Cover the bath during DIY or decorating
- Fix dripping taps early to stop staining and limescale
- Give the bath a quick rinse after use
For the first few days, keep heavy bottles off the repaired spot. After that, clean it as you would the rest of the bath.
Avoid standing in a cracked acrylic bath until it’s fixed. Every use opens the crack a little more, and water can get through to the floor below.
What happens on the day
Your technician turns up when we said we would and looks over the damage before anything else. The floor and nearby surfaces are covered before we open a single tin. Most visits take a few hours, and we leave the room as we found it.
- Dust sheets and masking go down around the bath.
- The damaged area is cleaned, keyed and degreased, and any rust is treated.
- We fill it, let it set, then sand it flush.
- We match both the colour and the shine.
- We tidy up and tell you when the bath can be used, normally the next day.
How to prepare
- Make sure the area is dry
- Point us to the nearest place to park
- Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area

Related advice
Signs you need bath repair in St Leonards
A bath gets knocked about more than you’d think: bottles, shower heads and razors are dropped every day, and taps and wastes are tightened against the surface. Sooner or later, most baths pick up a chip.
The things customers generally mention when they call are:
- A failed DIY repair that is discoloured or lifting
- A chip where the taps sit
- A hole punched through by something heavy
- Rust spots around the plughole

When a repair isn’t the answer
Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:
- Wear across the whole surface, which needs re-enamelling
- Leaking fittings, which need a plumber
- Acrylic cracks with no access behind them
Not sure? Send photos and we’ll give you a straight answer before you book.

Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £95. There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price is based on:
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- How many items we do on one visit
- How many areas need work
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
Our prices are the same across the UK, so there is no premium for St Leonards. What changes the price is the job itself: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.
How to get a fixed price
When you take your photos, a few simple things make all the difference:
- Natural light rather than flash
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- The material, if you know it
If you are in St Leonards and want a price, the easiest route is photos: one close up, one from further back, plus your postcode. You will get a fixed quote with dates to choose from.
Can I fix it myself?
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it won’t stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.
FAQs for St Leonards
What happens once I’ve sent photos?
You’ll get a fixed quote back, plus dates. You are under no obligation.
Will I be able to see the repair?
We aim for a repair you can’t easily find. The rest of the bath’s condition makes a difference.
Do you cover St Leonards?
We do. We send a technician to St Leonards for every job, and the price is the same as everywhere else.
Do you repair coloured baths?
Yes, we match coloured baths too. We tint the finish to your bath on site.
Is a repair better than a new one?
Generally, when the rest is in good condition. A repair avoids removal and making good. If replacing would be better, we will say so.
Is a bath repair durable?
A properly prepared repair should last a long time, and ours come with a one-year guarantee. Gentle cleaning helps.
Will the price change on the day?
We stop, show you and agree any change before carrying on. You won’t be charged for anything you haven’t agreed.
Can I get a quote without a visit?
Nearly always. If photos do not show enough, we’ll ask for another angle.
Materials and what they mean for the repair
Pressed steel
Pressed steel is thinner and lighter, with an enamel finish like cast iron. Chips rust quickly on steel, especially around the waste, so early repairs matter.
Cast iron
Cast iron baths are thick and very strong, with a fused enamel surface. A chip down to the iron can rust, but the body of the bath lasts a very long time, so it’s always worth repairing.
