Do you need bath repair in Wester Pencaitland?
Baths take more knocks than people expect: everyday items get dropped into it all the time, and taps and wastes are tightened against the surface. Over time, chips and rust spots are almost inevitable.
Signs it’s time to call us include:
- Rust spots around the plughole
- A failed DIY repair that is discoloured or lifting
- Chips along the edge of the bath
- Damage done while the bathroom was being fitted

Bath repair at your home in Wester Pencaitland
You don’t need a new bath because of a chip. Our technicians fill, shape and refinish the damage, with the colour mixed on site so the repair is hard to spot. If you’re dealing with scuffs and scratches in the surface and rust by the waste and overflow, we can normally put it right.
The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If there is a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it.

Landlord and trade work in Wester Pencaitland
We are used to working with agents and managing companies. Just send photos, the address and how to get access and we’ll handle the rest.
Rental properties take more wear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.
The process
From the moment we arrive, we keep the work contained to the one room. Surfaces nearby are masked off, the work takes a few hours, and we finish by cleaning up and talking you through the result.
- We start by cleaning the damage and taking out loose enamel and rust.
- We fill the damage and sand it flush with the surrounding surface.
- We mix the colour on the day to match your bath’s exact shade.
- We apply the finish coats and polish the repair so it blends in.
- We leave it to cure; you can typically use the bath the day after.
Getting ready for the visit
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
- Have a window or extractor fan available
- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area

Related advice
Wester Pencaitland: your questions answered
Will there be a smell?
It depends on the job, but often a little. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum, and it soon fades.
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
Yes, though it’s best to check with your landlord first. Landlords are often glad to have it sorted before the end of a tenancy.
Is a cracked acrylic bath repairable?
Often, yes, if we can reach the underside to reinforce it. Check under the bath panel, or send us a picture.
Do you work in Wester Pencaitland?
We do. We send a technician to Wester Pencaitland for every job, with no extra charge for travel.
What happens after I send photos?
We look at the photos and reply with a fixed price and some dates. If anything’s unclear, we’ll ask for another photo.
Can pets and children be at home?
Keep pets and children away from the work area on the day, mainly so nothing gets touched before it has cured.
Will the price change on the day?
We will show you and explain before doing anything extra. Nothing extra is done without your say-so.
Is my repair covered?
All our work carries a one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.

What a repair cannot fix
We would rather lose a job than do one that won’t last, so these are the limits:
- A bath that flexes because its feet or cradle have failed (that needs fixing first)
- Rust that has eaten right through a steel bath
- Leaks from the waste or overflow fittings (a plumber’s job)
If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think.

- Pressed steel enamel
- Roll-top & freestanding
- Whirlpool & spa baths

Should you replace it?
People often assume a cracked or chipped bath has to come out. In most cases it doesn’t: a repair keeps the bath in service for years, and costs far less than the disruption of a replacement. Prices start from £95. The price reflects the work involved, not where you live. The full price is agreed before you book, with nothing added on the day.
What you get with us
- No need to remove anything
- A fixed quote before booking
- We will tell you if it’s not worth repairing
- One-year guarantee on every repair

Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £95. You will not pay by the hour. The price depends on:
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- Doing more than one item at once
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- The size and number of damaged areas
We do not add extras on the day. The price we quote from your photos is the price you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.
Send photos for a quote
Good pictures mean an accurate price. Here’s what we find most useful:
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- What it’s made of, if you know
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
If you’re in Wester Pencaitland and want a price, photos are the quickest way: a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode. You’ll get a fixed quote with dates to choose from.
Materials and what they mean for the repair
Acrylic
An acrylic bath is a moulded sheet strengthened from below. There’s no rust, but cracks, holes and scratches happen, and cracks need support from behind to stay fixed.
Composite and resin
Composite baths are dense and solid, and frequently freestanding. Chips and scratches are filled and matched, in much the same way.
Looking after it afterwards
Simple care helps the repair last. We recommend:
- Ensure an acrylic bath is firm underfoot
- Rinse the bath after use, especially in hard water areas
- Don’t scrub with anything abrasive
- Cover the bath during DIY or decorating
A repaired bath needs no special treatment, beyond gentle cleaning. Avoid bleach-based and gritty cleaners and rinse after use.
If an acrylic bath has a crack, stop showering in it until it’s repaired. Every use opens the crack a little more, and water can get through to the floor below.
