When to call us in Westwoodhill

Glass and heavy bottles cause more chips than anything else, closely followed by shower heads. Taps and wastes cause problems too: water collects there, so chips nearby rust quickly.

Keep an eye out for any of the following:

  • A failed DIY repair that is discoloured or lifting
  • A cracked acrylic bath
  • A hole punched through by something heavy
  • Scuffs and scratches in the surface

Choosing a repair company

Repairs by material

Composite and resin

Stone resin and composite baths are heavy and solid, and often freestanding. Chips and scratches can be filled and colour-matched, in much the same way.

Pressed steel

Pressed steel is thinner and lighter, with an enamel finish like cast iron. Chips rust quickly on steel, particularly by the plughole, so early repairs matter.

What bath repair costs

Prices start from £95. Each job gets its own fixed price. This is what makes a difference:

  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • How many areas need work
  • The colour and finish to match
  • The type of damage

Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

Getting a price from pictures

Before you send photos, these tips help us give you a firm price:

  • A photo taken from further back
  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • Where you are, by postcode

The quickest way to a price is to send a couple of photos through our quote form or ring us. We will say right away whether it can be repaired.

What happens on the day

On the day itself, there is little for you to do. Let us in and show us the room, and we’ll take it from there. Most visits take a few hours, depending on the damage, including clearing up.

  1. First, the area is cleaned and any loose enamel or rust is removed.
  2. The chip or crack is filled, then sanded level with the bath.
  3. We tint the finish on the day to suit your bath’s shade of white or colour.
  4. We apply the finish coats and polish the repair so it blends in.
  5. We leave it to cure; you can usually use the bath the next day.

Before we arrive

  • Ensure the room can be ventilated
  • Let us know if it has been repaired before
  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work

Getting a price

Getting a price is easy: snap the damage close up and then the entire item, send them to us with your postcode, and you will get a fixed price back. Quotes are free and no obligation.

Looking after it afterwards

Simple care helps the repair last. We recommend:

  • Don’t scrub with anything abrasive
  • If an acrylic bath flexes, have its feet adjusted
  • Have new chips seen to early
  • Cover the bath during DIY or decorating

In the first few days, avoid putting weight or bottles on the repair. After that, clean it as you would the rest of the bath.

A small chip is a quick job. Left alone, they stain and can rust, so early repair saves time and money.

Repair or replace in Westwoodhill?

Many people think a damaged bath means a new one. Usually it doesn’t: a proper repair gives it years more use, and costs far less than the disruption of a replacement. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is typically a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. The quote lists exactly what you’re paying for.

What you get with us

  • No extra charge for your area
  • We’ll tell you if it’s not worth repairing
  • A year’s guarantee on all work
  • No need to remove anything

Your questions about bath repair in Westwoodhill

Can a cracked acrylic bath be fixed?

Usually, yes, as long as we can get to the back of the crack to support it. Take off the bath panel and check, or send us a photo.

Will the price change on the day?

Your quote covers the damage in the pictures. Anything extra is discussed before we begin.

Do you cover Westwoodhill?

Yes. We cover the whole UK and travel to Westwoodhill and the rest of South Lanarkshire. Send photos and we will quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

Will there be a smell?

It depends on the job, but often a little. Open windows and an extractor fan help, and it soon fades.

Can rust on a bath be repaired?

Yes. We take out the rust and any loose enamel, seal and fill the area, then colour-match the finish.

Are there extra charges for Westwoodhill?

We don’t add a call-out fee. The fixed quote covers the visit and the work.

What happens once I’ve sent pictures?

We review the pictures and send a fixed quote with dates.

How quickly can you book me in?

That depends on our diary for your area. We’ll offer you dates when we send your quote.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

For a hairline mark somewhere you will never see, a kit may be enough. 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.

We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
