Bath repair across G75: what to expect

Most of our bath repairs take a few hours, and you can generally bathe again the next day. You won’t need a plumber or tiler, because nothing is disconnected. Our technicians work on cast iron enamel, whirlpool & spa baths and acrylic, and the jobs we see most are hairline or through cracks in acrylic and snagging damage from a refit.

We begin by going over the job with you, so there are no surprises. After that, protection goes down around the work area and the work begins. It normally takes a few hours, depending on the damage.

  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. We mix the colour on the day to match your bath’s exact shade.
  4. Finish coats go on, then the repair is polished to blend in.
  5. We leave it to cure; you can generally use the bath the following day.

Prices in G75

A quote takes minutes to ask for: take one close-up and one wider shot of the bath, include your postcode and send them over. What comes back is a fixed quote, not a guess.

How we price bath repair

Prices start from £95. We give every job a fixed quote from pictures. These are the things that affect it:

  • The material
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • Doing more than one item at once
  • How hard the colour is to match

Our prices are the same across the UK, so there’s no premium for G75. The job itself decides the price: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

Send pictures for a quote

It only takes a minute to photograph the damage. Try to send:

  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • One picture of the entire bath
  • Where you are, by postcode
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before

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

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Composite and resin

Composite baths are dense and solid, and frequently freestanding. Chips and scratches can be filled and colour-matched, just like other baths.

Pressed steel

Steel baths are lighter than cast iron, but have a similar enamel surface. Exposed steel rusts fast, particularly by the plughole, so repair chips early.

What a repair cannot fix

A repair isn’t right for every job, including:

  • Flexing caused by a failed cradle or loose feet
  • Leaks from the waste or overflow fittings (a plumber’s job)
  • Wear across the entire surface, which needs re-enamelling

Landlords, agents and businesses in G75

Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover, saving last-minute replacements. Several plots can be done in one visit.

Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs in South Lanarkshire and across the UK. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which is easier on the people living there.

DIY kit or professional repair?

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it does not stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.

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 the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.

Questions from G75

Can landlords book you?

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

Can you repair several things at once?

Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Send pictures of everything you’d like done.

Will the repair last?

Done properly, a repair lasts for years, and ours come with a one-year guarantee. Gentle cleaning helps.

Do you repair coloured baths?

Yes, coloured baths are no problem. We tint the finish to your bath on site.

Can you quote from pictures?

In nearly every case. If pictures don’t show enough, we will ask for another angle.

Is a holed acrylic bath repairable?

Usually, yes, if we can reach behind it. The hole is backed, filled and refinished to match.

I tried a repair kit. Can you fix it?

Regularly. The old material comes out, any rust is treated, then we repair it properly.
