Bath repair across EH15: what to expect
We see every kind of bath damage: chips from dropped bottles, rust round the plughole, cracks in acrylic and holes from falling tools. All of it is repaired where the bath stands with a one-year guarantee. Common call-outs are for a chipped rim or side and a kit repair that didn’t last, on whirlpool & spa baths, roll-top & freestanding and cast iron enamel.
Here’s how a visit normally runs: we arrive on time, sheet and mask the area around the job, do the job and tidy away. Allow a few hours from start to finish. Before leaving, we tell you when it can be used and how to look after it.
- We protect the bath and the floor around it.
- The damaged area is cleaned, keyed and degreased, and any rust is treated.
- Filler goes in and is sanded flush once it has set.
- We match both the colour and the shine.
- We tidy up and tell you when the bath can be used, typically the next day.
Prices in EH15

What bath repair costs
Prices start from £95. Every quote is fixed and free. What we look at:
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- The colour and finish to match
- The type of damage
- How many areas need work
A few things move the price: 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.
Getting a price from photos
The better the pictures, the more accurate the price. Here’s what we find most useful:
- A wider photo showing the entire bath
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
A quote takes minutes to ask for: take one close-up and one wider shot of the bath, add your postcode and send them to us. You’ll get a fixed quote, not an estimate.
Landlords, agents and businesses in EH15
We’re used to working with agents and managing companies. Send the address, pictures and access details and we will handle the rest.
We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in EH15 as well as householders. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it typically costs far less than a refit.
When we’d advise against a repair
A repair is not always the answer, and we’d rather say so up front. We can’t fix:
- A bath that flexes because its feet or cradle have failed (that needs fixing first)
- Rust that has eaten right through a steel bath
- Cracks in parts of an acrylic bath we can’t get to from below
How to look after the repair
A little care keeps the finish looking good. We recommend:
- Keep metal cans and razors off the surface
- Do not scrub with anything abrasive
- Have new chips seen to early
- Give the bath a quick rinse after use
A repaired bath needs no special treatment, beyond gentle cleaning. Skip bleach and gritty creams and give it a rinse after each bath.
Until we visit, a strip of waterproof tape over the damage helps, to keep water out. Remove it before the repair.
Repairs by material
Acrylic
Acrylic is light and warm to the touch, but it needs firm support underneath. Cracks are strengthened from behind before the front is finished.
Pressed steel
Pressed steel is thinner and lighter, with an enamel finish like cast iron. Exposed steel rusts fast, particularly by the plughole, so early repairs matter.

Yes: twelve months. If there’s a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.
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 picture.
