Tillicoultry: your questions answered

Can you repair something that is been repaired before?

Most of the time. Tell us what was done before.

Is there any odour?

Expect a mild smell while we’re working, which fades afterwards.

Is there a call-out fee?

We do not add a call-out fee. Your fixed price includes everything.

Can you repair a chip on a coloured bath?

Yes. We mix the colour on the day to match, including older coloured suites.

Is it messy?

We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and we clean up when we have finished.

Is my repair covered?

Yes: twelve months. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.

What information do you need?

Photos of the damage, a photo of the whole bath and your postcode. After that, we just agree a date.

What happens if you find more damage?

We’ll show you and explain before doing anything extra. Nothing extra is done without your say-so.

Repair or replace: which is better?

People frequently assume a cracked or chipped bath has to come out. In most cases it doesn’t: a proper repair gives it years more use, without the cost and upheaval of replacing it. Our bath repair starts from £95. Compared with replacing, repairing normally costs far less, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. The quote lists exactly what you’re paying for.

Why book with us

  • Everything repaired in place
  • Colours mixed by hand to suit your surface
  • One price list for the entire UK
  • Accredited with CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor

Take a look at our pricing and resurfacing vs replacement cost guide.

Looking after it afterwards

How the surface is treated afterwards matters:

  • Get any new chip repaired before it rusts
  • Cover the bath during DIY or decorating
  • Get a dripping tap fixed promptly
  • Ensure an acrylic bath is firm underfoot

Leave the repair to cure for as long as we say before running a bath. After that, gentle cleaning keeps it looking good.

Rust under enamel spreads surprisingly quickly. Left for months, a small chip can grow into a large rust patch, so it pays to deal with it early.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

For a hairline mark somewhere you will never see, a kit may be enough. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, a professional repair is worth it.

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.

How we price bath repair

Repairs from £95. There’s no area surcharge for Tillicoultry. What changes the price is:

  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • The material and finish

No two jobs are quite the same, so we price each one individually. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all play a part, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

Quotes from your pictures

You can typically get a fixed price without us visiting. To help us price it:

  • A wider photo showing the whole bath
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size

Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us pictures through the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the entire bath, we can price the job the same day in most cases.

Do you need bath repair in Tillicoultry?

Heavy toiletries are the biggest single cause of chips, with dropped shower heads close behind. Taps and wastes cause problems too: water collects there, so chips nearby rust quickly.

Clients usually contact us about:

  • Rusty patches near the plughole
  • Chips caused by builders
  • Hairline or through cracks in acrylic
  • An old repair that has yellowed or come loose

What to look for in a quote

  • Whether the price covers travel
  • What preparation is included
  • A fixed price, and whether VAT is included
  • How your room will be protected

Our hiring checklist

Repairs by material

Cast iron

A cast iron bath is heavy enough that most people never want to move it. The enamel is the part that wears or chips, and that’s the part we put right.

Composite and resin

Stone resin and composite baths are heavy and solid. Chips and scratches can be filled and colour-matched, in much the same way.

How it works

Visits start with a quick look at the job together, so there are no surprises. Then the area is sheeted and masked and we start. Allow two to three hours for most chips, and we’ll keep you posted as we go.

  1. First, the area is cleaned and any loose enamel or rust is removed.
  2. Next we fill the damage and sand it smooth and level.
  3. We mix the colour on the day to match your bath’s exact shade.
  4. We apply the finish coats and polish the repair so it blends in.
  5. The repair is left to cure, and most baths can be used the day after.

How to prepare

  • Ensure the room can be ventilated
  • Let us know about parking or access
  • Keep a parking space free if you can

How to get a price

Send us a picture of the damage and one of the entire item, with your FK13 postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote.

Advice

What a repair can’t fix

We would rather lose a job than do one that will not last, so here’s what a repair can’t put right:

  • Metal that has corroded all the way through
  • Acrylic cracks with no access behind them
  • Flexing caused by a failed cradle or loose feet

Not sure? Send photos and we’ll give you a straight answer before you book.
