Should I try a DIY kit first?
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully and work on a clean, dry surface, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.
A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it does not stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.
Bath repair in Tweedbank, done in place
We repair just the damaged spot and colour-match it to the bath, which costs far less than replacing a fitted bath and the tiles around it. Most baths can be used again the day after. Whether it’s deep scratches in acrylic and cracks in an acrylic bath, we can typically put it right.
You are covered for a year from the day of the repair. If anything isn’t right, ring us and we will come back.

Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

- How easy the damage is to reach
There are no surprise extras on the day. The price we quote from your photos is the price you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.

What we are called out for in Tweedbank
Baths take more knocks than people expect: everyday items get dropped into it all the time, and fittings press hard against the enamel. Over time, chips and rust spots are almost inevitable.
Common reasons people in Tweedbank contact us include:
- A cracked acrylic bath
- A chip where the taps sit
- Rust spots around the plughole
- Impact holes in acrylic

What a repair can’t fix
Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:
- A steel bath rusted through
- Leaking fittings, which need a plumber
- A whole bath that’s dull or worn, where a full re-enamel is the better fix
Send us pictures and we will tell you honestly.
Materials we repair
- Whirlpool & spa baths
- Cast iron enamel

How to care for the repair
Simple care helps the repair last. Our advice:
- Keep metal cans and razors off the surface
- Cover the bath during DIY or decorating
- Use a soft cloth and washing-up liquid for everyday cleaning
- Do not leave a fresh chip for long
For the first few days, keep heavy bottles off the repaired spot. After that, clean it as you would the rest of the bath, avoiding abrasives.
Tape over a fresh chip or crack until it’s repaired, so water can’t get in. Take it off before we arrive.
FAQs for Tweedbank
Can pets and children be at home?
Keep pets and children away from the work area on the day, so the repair isn’t disturbed while it cures.
Is there a call-out fee?
No. Our quotes include travel, and we charge the same wherever you are.
Can you do more than one item on the same visit?
Of course, and it normally saves money. Send pictures of everything together and you will get one combined price.
Can you match an avocado or pink bath?
Yes. We mix the colour on the day to match, including older coloured suites.
When can I have a bath again?
Most baths can be used the next day. We’ll tell you the exact curing time when we finish.
Something went through my bath. Can it be fixed?
Generally, yes, if we can reach behind it. We back the hole, fill it and refinish the surface.
Do you come to Tweedbank?
Yes. We cover the whole UK and come to Tweedbank. Send photos and we will quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
Can you quote from photos?
Nearly always. We only ask to see it in person if the photos cannot show what we need.
