Surface repairs across FK12

Bath repair at your home in FK12

You don’t need a new bath because of a chip. Our technicians fill, shape and refinish the damage, with the colour mixed on site so the repair is hard to spot. We regularly repair whirlpool & spa baths, acrylic and cast iron enamel, and common reasons people contact us are rust by the waste and overflow and a chipped rim or side.

Nothing needs to be moved out of the room beforehand. Everything we use comes in the van with us, lay protective sheets and get going once we have agreed what we are doing. Most jobs take a few hours, depending on the damage, and you can get on with other things while we are there.

  1. Dust sheets and masking go down around the bath.
  2. The damaged area is cleaned, keyed and degreased.
  3. We fill it, let it set, then sand it flush.
  4. We match both the colour and the shine.
  5. We tidy up and tell you when the bath can be used, normally the day after.

Pricing in FK12

Prices start from £95. Every job is a little different, so we price each one individually. The size and type of damage, the material and access all make a difference, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

What you get with us

  • Work done at your home or business
  • Same prices wherever you are
  • Rooms protected and left tidy
  • CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited

How to get a price

To get a price, send two or three photos through our quote form or call us. We’ll say straight away whether it can be repaired.

Local landmarks in Alva

We visit homes around Johnstone Arms Hotel, Alva and Alva Academy and the streets around them. Alva’s nearest station is Alloa station, roughly 2.5 miles south of the centre. Other landmarks nearby include Tullibody Heritage Museum (2.1 miles south-west). Not far away are Airthrey Loch and Craig Leith.

Why repair rather than replace?

Cast iron baths especially are worth keeping: getting one out, particularly from an upstairs bathroom, is a big job, and replacing like for like isn’t cheap. Repairing it leaves it where it is.

Different materials, different repairs

Acrylic

Acrylic feels warm and is light, but it needs firm support underneath. Repairs to cracks are reinforced from the back.

Cast iron

A cast iron bath is heavy enough that most people never want to move it. The enamel is the part that wears or chips, and that is the part we put right.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and then the old filler has to be removed first.

What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.

Work for landlords and builders

We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, fixing chips and scratches before handover so nothing needs replacing. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.

We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out photos. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.

Prices and what affects them

Prices start from £95. Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we look at:

  • How much damage there is
  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • What the surface is made of
  • Access to the area

What it costs depends on the type and amount of damage, what it’s made of and how many items we do on one visit. We give a fixed quote from your photos, so you know the cost before you book.

Getting a price from photos

You can take the photos on your phone. Just make sure we can see:

  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • A wider photo showing the whole bath
  • Natural light rather than flash

Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: photograph the damage, then the entire bath, include your postcode and send them to us. What comes back is a fixed price, not a guess.

FK12 questions

What happens after I send pictures?

We review the photos and send a fixed quote and the next dates we have.

How much does bath repair cost in FK12?

Prices start from £95. We give a fixed quote based on pictures of the damage. Send a close-up and a photo of the entire item with your FK12 postcode.

How invisible is a bath repair?

The goal is a repair that blends in. The rest of the bath’s condition makes a difference.

Do you cover FK12?

We do. We send a technician to FK12 for every job, and the price is the same as everywhere else.

We do, regularly. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.

Yes, almost always. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed price.
