When to call us in West Calder
A bath gets knocked about more than you’d think: 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.
Send us a picture if you notice any of these:
- Rusty patches near the plughole
- A chipped rim or side
- Chips caused by builders
- A failed DIY repair that is discoloured or lifting
Questions to ask before you book
- How to look after the finish
- How the room is protected while they work
- What preparation is included
- What happens if they find more damage
About our bath repair in West Calder
We repair enamelled steel, cast iron and acrylic baths. The method changes with the material: metal baths need any rust dealt with first, and acrylic cracks need support from behind. We work on whirlpool & spa baths, pressed steel enamel and roll-top & freestanding, and people most frequently call us about an old repair that has yellowed or come loose and scuffs and scratches in the surface.
A one-year guarantee comes as standard.

Repairs by material
Acrylic
Acrylic baths are moulded sheet reinforced underneath. There is no rust, but cracks, holes and scratches happen, and a crack only stays repaired if it’s supported underneath.
Composite and resin
Composite baths are dense and solid. Chips and scratches are filled and matched, just like other baths.
How to care for the repair
After the repair has cured, a few habits help it last:
- Keep abrasive pads and gritty cleaners away from the bath
- Do not leave razors or cans standing in the bath
- Clean with warm water and a mild detergent
- Do not leave a fresh chip for long
Use gentle, non-abrasive cleaners and try not to drop heavy bottles on the repair. Deal with new chips early, before rust sets in.
Rust spreads under enamel faster than most people expect. Left for months, a small chip can grow into a large rust patch, so it pays to deal with it early.
For landlords and businesses
We’re used to working with agents and managing companies. Just send photos, the address and how to get access and we will arrange it.
Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover, saving last-minute replacements. We can visit several plots in one trip.
What happens on the day
On the day, 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.
- First, we check the damage against your photos and agree the plan.
- Loose enamel, rust and dirt are removed so the repair can bond.
- The damage is filled in layers and shaped to the curve of the bath.
- The colour is tinted by hand until it matches.
- Finally, it’s polished to match the shine and left to cure.
Getting ready for the visit
- Make sure the area is dry
- Let us know if it has been repaired before
- Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area

Your questions about bath repair in West Calder
Are there extra charges for West Calder?
No. Our quotes include travel, and we charge the same wherever you are.
Can you repair a hole in a bath?
In most cases. Send us a picture of the hole and one from under the bath if you can.
Do you work in West Calder?
Yes, we do. Technicians travel to West Calder from across the region, and the price is the same as everywhere else.
Can a cracked acrylic bath be fixed?
In most cases. We reinforce the crack from behind, then fill and refinish the front, so access behind the panel is important.
Can you match an avocado or pink bath?
Yes, coloured baths are no problem. We tint the finish to your bath on site.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Yes. Doing several items on one visit typically costs less than separate visits. Send pictures of everything you’d like done.
What information do you need?
A close-up, a wider photo and your postcode. Then we’ll agree a date.
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
Yes. Ask your landlord first, and we can send them the quote if that helps.
Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £95. Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we look at:
- What kind of damage it is
- How easy the damage is to reach
- Whether we combine several jobs
- The material
A repair is priced on what needs doing, not where you live. You will see the full price before booking.
Getting a price from photos
Before you send photos, a few simple things make all the difference:
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- Any details about the material
- A picture taken from further back
- Details of any past repairs
You do not need a survey visit. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote.
Should I try a DIY kit first?
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, then guarantee it for a year.
