Bath repair across EH37: what to expect
We repair just the damaged spot and colour-match it to the bath, which costs far less than replacing a fitted bath. You can typically use the bath the following day. We are often asked to fix rust by the waste and overflow and a chipped rim or side, on acrylic, whirlpool & spa baths and pressed steel enamel.
A typical visit goes like this: we arrive on time, protect everything around the work area, carry out the work and tidy away. Plan for a few hours, depending on the damage. Before we go, we’ll explain when it can be used and what to avoid for the first few days.
- First, we check the damage against your pictures and agree the plan.
- Loose enamel, rust and dirt are removed so the repair can bond.
- We build up the filler in layers, shaping it to the bath.
- We tint the finish by hand to match the bath.
- The repair is polished to the same gloss as the bath and left to cure.
What it costs in EH37
Our bath repair starts from £95. Our prices are the same across the UK, with no extra for EH37. What changes the price is the job itself: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

Near you in Pathhead
In Pathhead, that means homes near Ford. The nearest railway station is Gorebridge station, roughly 3.5 miles south-west. Further afield, we also cover the area around Oxenfoord Castle (1 mile north-west) and Midlothian Community Hospital (4.8 miles west).
Honest limits
A repair is not right for every job, including:
- Wear across the whole surface, which needs re-enamelling
- Cracks in parts of an acrylic bath we can’t get to from below
- Metal that has corroded all the way through
Different materials, different repairs
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.
Cast iron
Cast iron baths are thick and very strong, finished with fired enamel. Chips can rust if left, but the body of the bath lasts a very long time, which makes it well worth repairing.
Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £95. You’ll know the full cost before you book. We look at:
- What kind of damage it is
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- How many areas need work
- How easy the damage is to reach
The price reflects the work involved, not where you live. The full price is agreed before booking.
Send photos for a quote
Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what we need:
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- A wider photo showing the entire bath
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
For a price in EH37, the easiest route is pictures: one close up, one from further back, plus your postcode. You’ll get a fixed quote with dates to choose from.
Looking after it afterwards
Once the work has cured, treat it gently:
- Protect the bath with a towel when doing jobs nearby
- Have new chips seen to early
- Rinse it down after each bath
- Get a dripping tap fixed promptly
Use gentle, non-abrasive cleaners and avoid dropping heavy items on the repaired area. Deal with new chips early, before rust sets in.
Until we visit, a strip of waterproof tape over the damage helps, so water can’t get in. Remove it before the repair.
How the damage happens
Many chips happen while the bathroom is being fitted. Tools, tiles and fittings get dropped into the bath, frequently before anyone notices. Snagging repairs like these are a regular job for us.
These are the problems we are asked about most:
- Rust spots around the plughole
- Cracks in an acrylic bath
- Impact holes in acrylic
- Damage done while the bathroom was being fitted
Common questions in EH37
Can you repair a failed DIY repair?
Yes. We remove the old filler and start again. Mention it when you send photos.
Will there be a smell?
Some materials have a smell while they’re applied. It fades as everything cures.
Can tenants book a repair?
We can work for tenants, landlords or agents. Get your landlord’s agreement first.
Can landlords book you?
Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as homeowners.
What happens if you find more damage?
We’ll show you and explain before doing anything extra. Nothing extra is done without your say-so.
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
In most cases. We remove the old repair before doing a new one, so let us know about it.
Can you repair several things at once?
Yes. Doing several items on one visit generally costs less than separate visits. Include pictures of each item.
