Our bath repair service in FK16

Whatever the damage, the aim is the same: a repair that’s smooth, sound and hard to spot. We prepare the area properly, fill and shape it, then match the colour and gloss so it’s level with the surrounding surface. Our technicians work on pressed steel enamel, roll-top & freestanding and cast iron enamel, and common reasons people contact us are cracks in an acrylic bath and scratches you can feel with a fingernail.

We begin by going over the job with you. After that, protection goes down around the work area and we start. You can expect it to take two to three hours for most chips, and we will keep you posted as we go.

  1. We start by looking at the damage and confirming the plan with you.
  2. Any rust and loose material comes out, and the area is degreased.
  3. We build up the filler in layers, shaping it to the bath.
  4. The colour is tinted by hand until it matches.
  5. The repair is polished to the same gloss as the bath and left to cure.

Prices in FK16

Our bath repair starts from £95. We charge the same wherever you are, so there is no premium for FK16. What changes the price is the job itself: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

What’s near Doune

Locally, our jobs take us to homes close to Highland Hotel and St Madoc's Episcopal Church, among other places. Doune’s nearest station is Dunblane station, roughly 3.4 miles east of the centre. Further afield, we also cover the area around Doune Motor Museum (2.3 miles north-west) and Doune Castle (less than half a mile south-east). For a walk, there is Loch Mahaick and Hill of Row.

Prices and what affects them

Repairs from £95. Every quote is fixed and free. What we look at:

  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • How hard the colour is to match
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • Doing more than one item at once

Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and doing several items at once reduces it.

Quotes from your photos

A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. Try to include:

  • Something in shot to show the size
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • One sharp close-up of the damage

To get a price, send two or three photos using our quote form or ring us. We will tell you honestly if a repair is the right fix.

How to look after the repair

It’s all simple stuff, just a few sensible habits:

  • Get any new chip repaired before it rusts
  • Avoid scourers, wire wool and gritty cream cleaners
  • Protect the bath with a towel when doing jobs nearby
  • Give the bath a quick rinse after use

Don’t leave razors, cans or hair grips in the bath, as they can leave rust marks. And fix dripping taps promptly.

Rust under enamel spreads surprisingly quickly. Left for months, a small chip can grow into a large rust patch, so it pays to deal with it early.

DIY kit or professional repair?

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, then guarantee it for a year.

We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.

Landlords, agents and businesses in FK16

If you manage property in FK16, we’ll quote for several properties at once. Send pictures for each one and we will price them together.

We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams in Stirling and across the UK. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which matters when someone is living in the home.

Repairs by material

Acrylic

Acrylic baths are moulded sheet reinforced underneath. They do not rust, but they can crack, scratch or be holed, and a crack only stays repaired if it’s supported underneath.

Composite and resin

Stone resin and composite baths are heavy and solid. Chips and scratches are filled and matched, just like other baths.

FAQs for FK16

Is a holed acrylic bath repairable?

In most cases. Photos of the hole and the underside help us check.

Can you fix rust around the plughole?

Yes, very often. The rust is cut back to clean metal and sealed before we fill and finish it.

Will it make a mess?

We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and tidy up before we leave.

What areas do you cover?

We work UK-wide. Our prices are the same everywhere.

What happens after I send photos?

We look at the pictures and reply with a fixed quote and some dates. If anything’s unclear, we’ll ask for another photo.

Will I be able to see the repair?

On a glossy bath, you’ll struggle to find it. On older, dull enamel the repair can look glossier than the area around it.

Can you repair a failed DIY repair?

Yes, we do this often. The old material comes out, any rust is treated, then we repair it properly.
