Bath repair at your home in G63

We see every kind of bath damage: dropped-bottle chips, plughole rust, acrylic cracks and impact holes. All of it is repaired where the bath stands with a one-year guarantee. We regularly repair cast iron enamel, pressed steel enamel and acrylic, and people most often call us about cracks in an acrylic bath and impact holes in acrylic.

We agree an arrival time beforehand. Once we are there, the work takes a few hours for most jobs. We leave the room clean and ready to use once it has cured.

  1. We clean the area and remove any loose enamel or rust.
  2. The chip or crack is filled, then sanded level with the bath.
  3. The colour is mixed on the spot to match your bath.
  4. Finish coats go on, then the repair is polished to blend in.
  5. The repair is left to cure, and most baths can be used the following day.

What’s near Killearn

Around Killearn, we work in homes near Old Parish Church and Graveyard, among other places. Further afield, we also cover the area around Killearn Hospital (1 mile south-west) and Ballikinrain (2.7 miles north-east). For a walk, there is Craigallian Loch and Dumgoyne.

Should I try a DIY kit 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.

It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is normally the cheaper route.

Honest limits

Some jobs aren’t right for a repair, for example:

  • Leaking fittings, which need a plumber
  • Flexing caused by a failed cradle or loose feet
  • A bath worn all over, where resurfacing makes more sense

Work for landlords and builders

Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets can’t afford rooms out of action for long, so we keep visits short and tidy. We will fit around changeovers where we can.

Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which is easier on the people living there.

What we are called out for in G63

Dropped items cause the majority of chips, and building work is a common culprit. Acrylic baths crack for a different reason: poor support underneath, so the bath flexes when it’s full.

The most common problems we’re called about are:

  • Cracks in an acrylic bath
  • Chips under the taps
  • Chips caused by builders
  • Chips on the rim or sides

How to look after the repair

Simple care helps the repair last. Our advice:

  • Use a soft cloth and washing-up liquid for everyday cleaning
  • Put a towel in the bath if you are working above it
  • Check that an acrylic bath does not move when you stand in it
  • Don’t leave razors or cans standing in the bath

Keep metal objects like razors and cans off the surface, as they can leave rust marks. A dripping tap should be fixed early, too.

Avoid standing in a cracked acrylic bath until it’s fixed. Each time it flexes, the crack grows, and water can get through to the floor below.
