Bath Repair in Westrigg
Fixed-price bath repair in Westrigg and the surrounding area, done in a single visit in most cases and guaranteed for a year.
- Repairs from £95
- A chip where the taps sit
- Chips on the rim or sides
How to care for the repair
Much of the damage we repair could have been avoided. A few tips:
- Store metal items away from the bath
- Put a towel in the bath if you are working above it
- Rinse it down after each bath
- Get any new chip repaired before it rusts
A repaired bath needs no special treatment, beyond gentle cleaning. Avoid bleach-based and gritty cleaners.
A chip on a metal bath shouldn’t be left. Once water reaches the metal, rust begins, turning a quick repair into a bigger one.
Bath repair in Westrigg without replacing anything
A typical bath repair is a few hours’ work, and you can generally bathe again the day after. You will not need a plumber or tiler, because nothing is disconnected. Typical jobs include a kit repair that didn’t last and a chipped rim or side, on cast iron enamel, pressed steel enamel and whirlpool & spa baths.
The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If there is a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it.

What we cannot put right
To be straight with you, there are a few things a repair won’t fix:
- Cracks in acrylic we can’t reach from underneath
- Leaks from the waste or overflow fittings (a plumber’s job)
- A whole bath that is dull or worn, where a full re-enamel is the better fix
Send us photos and we will tell you honestly.

How it works
Here’s how a visit normally runs: we arrive at the agreed slot, protect everything around the work area, carry out the work and tidy away. Allow a few hours, depending on the damage from start to finish. Before we go, we will explain how long to leave it and what to avoid for the first few days.
- We clean the area and remove any loose enamel or rust.
- The chip or crack is filled, then sanded level with the bath.
- The colour is mixed on the spot to match your bath.
- Finish coats go on, then the repair is polished to blend in.
- The repair is left to cure, and most baths can be used the next day.
Preparing for the visit
- Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
- Make sure the area is dry
How to get a price

Advice
Common questions in Westrigg
Can I get a quote without a visit?
Nearly always. If photos do not show enough, we will ask for another angle.
What happens next?
We review the pictures and send a fixed quote.
Will the repair last?
Yes, if it’s prepared properly and the bath is sound. It’s covered by our one-year guarantee.
Is there any odour?
There can be some smell while we work, so we ventilate the room. It fades as everything cures.
Can tenants book a repair?
We’re happy to deal with the tenant, landlord or agent. Just make sure the landlord agrees.
Can you repair a crack in an acrylic bath?
In most cases. The back of the crack is strengthened before the front is filled and refinished, so we need access under the bath.
What areas do you cover?
We work UK-wide, so Westrigg is covered. Prices do not change with location.
Is my repair covered?
Yes: twelve months. If there’s a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.

Can I fix it myself?
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it does not stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.
For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.

How we price bath repair
Repairs from £95. Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we take into account:
- Whether we combine several jobs
- Unusual colours or finishes
- Access to the area
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
Compared with replacing, repairing generally costs far less, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. The quote lists exactly what you are paying for.
Quotes from your pictures
Good photos mean an accurate price. Here’s what helps:
- A wider photo showing the whole bath
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
There’s no need for us to visit first. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we will come back to you with a fixed figure.
Landlord and trade work in Westrigg

We’re used to working with agents and managing companies. Send the address, pictures and access details and we will handle the rest.
Why repair rather than replace?
Cast iron baths especially are worth keeping: they’re very heavy to remove, especially upstairs, and replacing like for like isn’t cheap. Repairing it leaves it where it is. Our bath repair starts from £95. 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.
Why book with us
- Honest advice, even when it means no job
- One-year guarantee on every repair
- Everything repaired in place
- Most jobs done in one visit
