Bath repair at your home in Wildmanbridge
A typical bath repair is a few hours’ work, and you can normally bathe again the next day. You will not need a plumber or tiler, because nothing is disconnected. We work on roll-top & freestanding, whirlpool & spa baths and pressed steel enamel, and the jobs we see most are a cracked acrylic bath and a hole punched through by something heavy.
The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If something is not right in that time, we come back and put it right.

Repairs by material
Cast iron
Cast iron baths are thick and very strong, finished with fired enamel. A chip down to the iron can rust, but the body of the bath lasts a very long time, so it’s always worth repairing.
Acrylic
Acrylic is light and warm to the touch, but it needs firm support underneath. Repairs to cracks are reinforced from the back.

What bath repair costs
Repairs from £95. There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price is based on:
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- Whether we combine several jobs
- Access to the area
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
There are no surprise extras on the day. The price we quote from your pictures is the price you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.
Getting a price from pictures
Phone pictures are fine, there is no need for anything special. Make sure they show:
- What it’s made of, if you know
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- One sharp close-up of the damage
Email us a photo of the damage and a wider shot of the entire item, and tell us you are in Wildmanbridge, and we will reply with a fixed quote.
Landlord and trade work in Wildmanbridge
Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Wildmanbridge use us as well as householders. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it costs much less than replacing.
We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which matters when someone is living in the home.
Questions from Wildmanbridge
How long does the repair take to cure?
Normally by the following day, though it depends on what we’ve done.
What happens after I send photos?
You get a fixed price and available dates. If we need another angle, we’ll ask.
Is a bath repair durable?
Done properly, a repair lasts for years, and ours come with a one-year guarantee. Gentle cleaning helps it last.
Do you come to Wildmanbridge?
We do. We send a technician to Wildmanbridge for every job, and the price is the same as everywhere else.
Does someone need to be in?
We need someone to let us in. You do not need to watch us work.
Do you cover the entire of South Lanarkshire?
Across the UK, so Wildmanbridge is covered. Prices do not change with location.
Will there be a smell?
It depends on the job, but frequently a little. Open windows and an extractor fan help, and it soon fades.
Is the work guaranteed?
All our work carries a one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.
Signs you need bath repair in Wildmanbridge
Acrylic baths that crack nearly always have a support problem. Legs that are not adjusted, a missing cradle or a soft floor let the base flex until it cracks.
Most people contact us when they notice something like this:
- Deep scratches in acrylic
- Rust spots around the plughole
- Chips caused by builders
- A chip where the taps sit
What your quote should include
- Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?
- The length of the guarantee and what it covers
- Whether the price covers travel
- Who will actually do the work
When a repair isn’t the answer
It helps to know what we cannot do too:
- Flexing caused by a failed cradle or loose feet
- Water coming from the waste or taps rather than the bath
- Acrylic cracks with no access behind them
Send us pictures and we will tell you honestly.
Materials we work on in Wildmanbridge
- Whirlpool & spa baths
- Acrylic
- Roll-top & freestanding
- Cast iron enamel
- Pressed steel enamel
Keeping it looking good
Most damage we see is avoidable. These habits help:
- Have new chips seen to early
- Do not leave razors or cans standing in the bath
- Don’t scrub with anything abrasive
- Check that an acrylic bath does not move when you stand in it
Keep metal objects like razors and cans off the surface, as they can leave rust marks. A dripping tap should be fixed early, too.
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.
