Trusted bath repair in Stoneyburn

The process

When we visit, we arrive at the time we’ve agreed, cover the area with dust sheets and masking, and set to work. Expect it to take two to three hours for most chips. We tidy up before we leave and tell you when it’s ready to use.

  1. Dust sheets and masking go down around the bath.
  2. The damaged area is cleaned, keyed and degreased, and any rust is treated.
  3. We fill it, let it set, then sand it flush.
  4. Colour and gloss are matched to the surrounding surface.
  5. We tidy up and tell you when the bath can be used, generally the following day.

Before we arrive

  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
  • Point us to the nearest place to park
  • Let us know which floor the room is on

Ask for a price

About our bath repair in Stoneyburn

Whether your bath is steel, cast iron or acrylic, we can repair it. The method changes with the material: rust is treated on metal baths, while cracks in acrylic are reinforced from underneath. Typical jobs include a hole punched through by something heavy and hairline or through cracks in acrylic, across whirlpool & spa baths, cast iron enamel and pressed steel enamel.

We stand behind the work with a one-year guarantee, so you are covered after the visit.

What affects the price in Stoneyburn

Repairs from £95. There is no charge for travel to Stoneyburn. The price depends on:

  • The material
  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • The colour and finish to match
  • How many items we do on one visit

Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access.

Getting a price from pictures

When you take your photos, a few simple things make all the difference:

  • Details of any past repairs
  • The material, if you know it
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection

Upload photos of the damage and one of the whole item, and tell us you are in Stoneyburn, and we will come back with a fixed quote.

Looking after it afterwards

Once the work has cured, treat it gently:

  • Avoid scourers, wire wool and gritty cream cleaners
  • Clean with warm water and a mild detergent
  • Keep metal cans and razors off the surface
  • A dripping tap stains enamel, so fix it early

A repaired bath needs no special treatment, just sensible cleaning. Skip bleach and gritty creams.

Rust spreads under enamel faster than most people expect. A chip the size of a fingernail can become a much larger patch if it’s left for months, so it pays to deal with it early.

Can I fix it myself?

If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely and work on a clean, dry surface, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.

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: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair won’t last.

Choosing a repair company

Landlord and trade work in Stoneyburn

We’re used to working with agents and managing companies. Just send pictures, the address and how to get access.

For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover, saving last-minute replacements. We can visit several plots in one trip.

Repairs by material

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 are lighter than cast iron, but have a similar enamel surface. Exposed steel rusts fast, especially around the waste, so repair chips early.
