About bath repair in EH39
Most bath damage, from chips and cracks to rust spots and holes, is repaired in place. There’s no plumbing to disconnect, the tiles are not touched, and the finish is matched to the rest of the bath. We are often asked to fix rusty patches near the plughole and a chip where the taps sit, in pressed steel enamel, acrylic and whirlpool & spa baths.
Here’s how a visit generally runs: we arrive on time, protect everything around the work area, carry out the work and tidy away. Plan for two to three hours for most chips from start to finish. Before leaving, we tell you how long to leave it and how to care for it.
- Dust sheets and masking go down around the bath.
- We clean, key and degrease the damage.
- 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 day after.
What it costs in EH39
Prices start from £95. 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.
Why book with us
- One price list for the whole UK
- Work done at your home or business
- We’ll tell you if it’s not worth repairing
- No need to remove anything
Ask for a price
Pricing is simple: take a close-up of the damage and a picture from further back, send them to us with your postcode, and you’ll get a fixed price back. There is no charge for the quote and you’re under no obligation.
Local landmarks in North Berwick
In North Berwick, that means homes near North Berwick and North Berwick High School, among other places. North Berwick has its own railway station: North Berwick station. Further afield, we also cover the area around Coastal Communities Museum (0.5 miles north-east) and Edington Cottage Hospital (under half a mile east). Not far away are North Berwick Law.
What a repair cannot fix
In fairness, some problems need a different fix:
- Wear across the entire surface, which needs re-enamelling
- Water coming from the waste or taps rather than the bath
- Cracks in acrylic we cannot reach from underneath
What affects the price in EH39
Prices start from £95. You will know the full cost before you book. We look at:
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- How easy the damage is to reach
- The material
- How much damage there is
Set against the cost of replacement, repairing usually costs far less, because there’s no removal, plumbing or making good. The quote lists exactly what you are paying for.
Getting a price from photos
Phone pictures are fine, there’s no need for anything special. Just ensure we can see:
- Details of any past repairs
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- A wider photo showing the whole bath
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
Upload a photo of the damage and a wider shot of the entire item, with your EH39 postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price.
DIY kit or professional repair?
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.
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is usually the cheaper route.
Should you replace it?
If the rest of the bath is in good condition, a repair is almost always the better choice. It costs less, takes less time and causes far less upheaval, and the bathroom stays as it is. If the entire surface is worn, re-enamelling may make more sense, and we’ll tell you.

How the damage happens
Rust tends to begin where water collects, around the waste, under the taps or in an old chip. Once water reaches the steel or iron, rust spreads under the enamel.
You may need us if you’ve spotted any of these:
- Rusty patches near the plughole
- An old repair that has yellowed or come loose
- Holes from dropped items
- A cracked acrylic bath
EH39 questions
What does bath repair cost?
Repairs from £95. We give a fixed price based on photos of the damage. Send a close-up and a photo of the entire item with your EH39 postcode.
Can you repair a failed DIY repair?
Yes. We remove the old filler and start again. Tell us about it when you send pictures.
Can pets and children be at home?
Please keep children and pets out of the room during the visit and until it has cured. The rest of the house is unaffected.
Is there any odour?
It depends on the job, but frequently a little. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum.
What areas do you cover?
Across the UK. Our prices are the same everywhere.
What about rust by the waste?
Yes. We remove the rust and loose enamel, seal and fill the area, then colour-match the finish.
Is there a guarantee?
Yes, for a year. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.
