About bath repair in AB39

It pays to repair bath damage while it’s small. On steel and cast iron, exposed metal starts to rust, while cracks in acrylic grow each time the bath moves. A repair stops both. We regularly repair roll-top & freestanding, acrylic and whirlpool & spa baths, and common reasons people contact us are a hole punched through by something heavy and scuffs and scratches in the surface.

You don’t need to empty the room beforehand. Everything we use comes in the van with us, lay protective sheets and get going once we’ve agreed what we’re doing. Most jobs take a few hours, and you are welcome to carry on with your day while we work.

  1. First, we check the damage against your photos and agree the plan.
  2. Loose enamel, rust and dirt are removed so the repair can bond.
  3. We build up the filler in layers, shaping it to the bath.
  4. We tint the finish by hand to match the bath.
  5. Finally, it’s polished to match the shine and left to cure.

Cost

Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. No two jobs are quite the same, so we price each one individually. The size and type of damage, the material and access all play a part, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

What’s near Stonehaven

Typical jobs here are in homes near Fetteresso Church, Larik Lounge pub and Mackie Academy and the streets around them. There’s a railway station in Stonehaven itself: Stonehaven station. Further afield, we also cover the area around Cowie Castle (1.3 miles north-east) and Stonehaven Tolbooth (0.9 miles south-east). Open spaces near Stonehaven include Megray Hill.

How the damage happens

Damage during fitting is very common. Tools, tiles and fittings get dropped into the bath, and the damage is not always spotted until later. We repair snagging damage like this regularly.

The most common problems we’re called about are:

  • A kit repair that didn’t last
  • Rust spots around the plughole
  • A cracked acrylic bath
  • Chips caused by builders

When a repair isn’t the answer

Before booking, it’s worth knowing the limits:

  • Leaks from the waste or overflow fittings (a plumber’s job)
  • Cracks in parts of an acrylic bath we cannot get to from below
  • A bath that flexes because its feet or cradle have failed (that needs fixing first)

What bath repair costs

Prices start from £95. There is no area surcharge for AB39. The price reflects:

  • How many areas need work
  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • How hard the colour is to match
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off

It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

Getting a price from pictures

Most quotes are done from photos alone. To make it quick:

  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • One picture of the entire bath
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare

If you are in AB39 and want a price, pictures are the quickest way: one close up, one from further back, plus your postcode. You will get a fixed quote with dates to choose from.

Can I fix it myself?

The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, then guarantee it for a year.

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair will not last.
