Our bath repair service in EH54

Chips, cracks, rust spots and small holes can be repaired with the bath left exactly where it is. Nothing is unplumbed, your tiles stay as they are, and the repaired area is colour-matched so it blends in. Typical jobs include scuffs and scratches in the surface and rust spots around the plughole, on roll-top & freestanding, whirlpool & spa baths and acrylic.

We agree an arrival time beforehand, so you are not left guessing. Once we’re there, the work takes a morning or an afternoon for most jobs. The room is left tidy and you’ll know when it can be used.

We clean the area and remove any loose enamel or rust.
We fill the damage and sand it flush with the surrounding surface.
We mix the colour on the day to match your bath’s exact shade.
Finish coats go on, then the repair is polished to blend in.
We leave it to cure; you can usually use the bath the day after.

Pricing in EH54

Prices start from £95. 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.

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Acrylic

Acrylic feels warm and is light, but it relies on good support. Repairs to cracks are reinforced from the back.

Pressed steel

Under the enamel of a steel bath is thin metal. Exposed steel rusts quickly, so the metal is treated and sealed before the repair.

Keeping it looking good

How the surface is treated afterwards matters. Here’s what we suggest:

Get any new chip repaired before it rusts
Rinse it down after each bath
Put a towel in the bath if you are working above it
Check that an acrylic bath doesn’t move when you stand in it

Clean with mild, non-abrasive cleaners and avoid dropping heavy items on the repaired area. Get any new chip seen to quickly, before rust sets in.

Stop using the bath if a crack lets water through until it’s repaired. Water under the bath can damage the floor and the ceiling below.

Signs you need bath repair

Glass and heavy bottles cause more chips than anything else, closely followed by shower heads. Taps and wastes cause problems too: water collects there, so chips nearby rust quickly.

Send us a photo if you notice any of these:

Impact holes in acrylic
Damage beneath the taps
Damage done while the bathroom was being fitted
Cracks in an acrylic bath

Prices and what affects them

Repairs from £95. There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price depends on:

Any earlier repairs that need removing first
How many areas need work
What the surface is made of
The colour and finish to match

The price depends on how much damage there is and what kind, the material and how many items we do on one visit. We give a fixed price from your pictures, so there are no surprises on the day.

Send photos for a quote

You can generally get a fixed quote without us visiting. To make it quick:

A picture taken from further back
Something in shot to show the size
The postcode, so we can plan the visit
A close-up of the damage, in focus

For most jobs, pictures are all we need to give you a price. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we will reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.

EH54 questions

I’m a tenant. Can you help?

We can work for tenants, landlords or agents. Just make sure the landlord agrees.

Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?

In most cases, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. We will be honest if it’s not worth it.

Can you repair a failed DIY repair?

Yes. We remove the old filler and start again. Tell us about it when you send photos.

How much does bath repair cost in EH54?

Repairs from £95. The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from pictures. You’ll get a fixed figure before you book.

How long does the repair take to cure?

Normally by the following day, depending on the repair.

What information do you need?

Photos of the damage, a picture of the entire bath and your postcode. After that, we just agree a date.

Can you fix rust around the plughole?

Yes. We remove the rust and loose enamel, fill the area, then colour-match the finish.
