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 do not use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, it’s worth having it done properly.
The process
Here’s how a visit typically runs: we arrive at the agreed slot, protect everything around the work area, do the job and tidy away. Allow a morning or an afternoon. Before we go, we will explain when it can be used and what to avoid for the first few days.
- First, the area is cleaned and any loose enamel or rust is removed.
- We fill the damage and sand it flush with the surrounding surface.
- We tint the finish on the day to suit your bath’s shade of white or colour.
- We apply the finish coats and polish the repair so it blends in.
- The repair is left to cure, and most baths can be used the following day.
Before we arrive
- Make sure the area is dry
- Have a window or extractor fan available
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
Getting a price
A quote takes minutes to ask for: take one close-up and one wider shot of the bath, add your postcode and send them to us. You’ll get a fixed price, not an estimate.
Advice
Your questions about bath repair in Towie
Is the work guaranteed?
Every repair comes with our one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.
How long before I can use the bath?
Normally by the following day, depending on the repair.
It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?
In most cases. We remove the old repair before doing a new one, so mention it when you send photos.
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
Yes, but check with your landlord or agent first. Landlords are often glad to have it sorted.
What areas do you cover?
All of Aberdeenshire, and the rest of the UK. Travel is included in the price.
Do I have to be there?
We need someone to let us in. After that, you can carry on with your day.
Is a repair better than a new one?
In most cases, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. We’ll be honest if it’s not worth it.
Is a bath repair permanent?
Done properly, a repair lasts for years, and it’s guaranteed for a year. Gentle cleaning helps it last.
Common problems we fix in Towie
Rust tends to begin where water collects, by the plughole, beneath dripping taps or in an unrepaired chip. Once water reaches the steel or iron, rust spreads under the enamel.
Common reasons people in Towie contact us are:
- Damage done while the bathroom was being fitted
- Deep scratches in acrylic
- A chipped rim or side
- Holes from dropped items

Landlord and trade work in Towie
Letting agents frequently send us pictures straight from the inventory. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.
Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets cannot afford rooms out of action for long, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We can work around your bookings.

How to care for the repair
A little care keeps the finish looking good. Our advice:
- Give the bath a quick rinse after use
- Don’t scrub with anything abrasive
- Put a towel in the bath if you are working above it
- A dripping tap stains enamel, so fix it early
Give the repair the full curing time we recommend before running a bath. After that, gentle cleaning keeps it looking good.
Don’t leave a chip on a steel or cast iron bath. Water gets to the metal and rust starts, turning a quick repair into a bigger one.
Honest limits
A repair isn’t always the answer, and we’ll tell you before we start. Repairs won’t solve:
- A bath that moves underfoot, until its support is fixed
- Leaks from the waste or overflow fittings (a plumber’s job)
- Cracks in acrylic we cannot reach from underneath

Repair or replace: which is better?
People frequently assume a cracked or chipped bath has to come out. In most cases it does not: a repair keeps the bath in service for years, and costs far less than the disruption of a replacement. Prices start from £95. Instead of hourly rates, we price the entire job up front. Damage, material and access decide it, and doing several items at once reduces it.
