Bath repair at your home in G78
We repair enamelled steel, cast iron and acrylic baths. Each material is repaired a little differently: rust is treated on metal baths, while cracks in acrylic are reinforced from underneath. We regularly repair cast iron enamel, acrylic and whirlpool & spa baths, and common reasons people get in touch are a cracked acrylic bath and scuffs and scratches in the surface.
We begin by going over the job with you, so you know exactly what we’re doing. Next, we cover and mask everything nearby and we start. Allow a few hours, and we will keep you posted as we go.
- We clean the area and remove any loose enamel or rust.
- We fill the damage and sand it flush with the surrounding surface.
- The colour is mixed on the spot to match your bath.
- Finish coats go on, then the repair is polished to blend in.
- We leave it to cure; you can normally use the bath the following day.
Prices in G78
Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. A few things move the price: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.
Why book with us
- Colour-matched on site
- No need to remove anything
- We’ll tell you if it’s not worth repairing
- One-year guarantee on every repair
Getting a price
A quote takes minutes to ask for: take one close-up and one wider shot of the bath, include your postcode and send them to us. You will get a fixed quote, not an estimate.
Around Barrhead

When we would advise against a repair
A few problems are outside what a surface repair can do:
- Acrylic cracks with no access behind them
- Metal that has corroded all the way through
- Water coming from the waste or taps rather than the bath
Should you replace it?
Replacing a fitted bath generally means a plumber, lifting out the old bath, re-tiling and a new panel and disposing of the old one. A repair fixes just the damaged area in one visit.
What your quote should include
- Aftercare advice
- How soon you can use it again
- Who will actually do the work
- What prep work is covered
Landlords, agents and businesses in G78
Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.
We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which is easier on the people living there.
How we price bath repair
Prices start from £95. There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price is based on:
- Access to the area
- Whether we combine several jobs
- The colour and finish to match
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
We don’t add extras on the day. The price we quote from your pictures is the price you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.
Quotes from your photos
Most quotes are done from pictures alone. To make it quick:
- One picture of the entire bath
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- Natural light rather than flash
- Any details about the material
There is no need for us to visit first. Nearly every job can be priced from pictures: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote.
Materials and what they mean for the repair
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’s what we repair.
Acrylic
Acrylic baths are moulded sheet reinforced underneath. There is no rust, but cracks, holes and scratches happen, and a crack only stays repaired if it’s supported underneath.
FAQs for G78
Can a cracked acrylic bath be fixed?
Generally, yes, as long as we can get to the back of the crack to support it. Check under the bath panel, or send us a picture.
How much does bath repair cost in G78?
Prices start from £95. The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from photos. You know the full cost before anything is booked.
Will it make a mess?
Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and we clean up when we have finished.
Can you repair a chip on a coloured bath?
Yes. We mix the colour on the day to match, including older coloured suites.
What if the damage is worse than the pictures show?
It’s rare, but if it happens we talk to you first. You decide whether to go ahead.
What do you need from me?
A close-up, a wider photo and your postcode. Then we’ll agree a date.
Is repairing better than replacing?
Usually, if the item is otherwise sound. A repair avoids removal and making good. If replacing would be better, we will say so.
