Our bath repair service in PH15
We see every kind of bath damage: dropped-bottle chips, plughole rust, acrylic cracks and impact holes. Each is repaired in place with a one-year guarantee. We regularly repair roll-top & freestanding, pressed steel enamel and whirlpool & spa baths, and people most often call us about snagging damage from a refit and cracks in an acrylic bath.
You don’t need to empty the room. Everything we use comes in the van with us, put protection down and get going once we have agreed what we are doing. It typically takes a morning or an afternoon, and you can get on with other things while we’re there.
- Dust sheets and masking go down around the bath.
- We clean, key and degrease the damage.
- We fill it, let it set, then sand it flush.
- We match both the colour and the shine.
- We tidy up and tell you when the bath can be used, normally the following day.
What you’ll pay
Prices start from £95. A repair is priced on what needs doing, not your postcode. You’ll see the full price before booking, with nothing added on the day.

How to get a price
There is no need for us to visit first. Nearly every job can be priced from pictures: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we’ll come back to you with a fixed figure.
Near you in Aberfeldy
Typical jobs here are in homes near Weem Hotel, Breadalbane Academy and Free Church, among other places. Other local landmarks include Tay Forest Park (1.4 miles north-west) and Library and Area Office (less than half a mile south-west). Well-known places in the area include Weem Castle (0.9 miles north-west). Green spaces nearby include Farragon Hill and Loch Glassie.
When we’d advise against a repair
Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair cannot fix:
- Metal that has corroded all the way through
- A bath that flexes because its feet or cradle have failed (that needs fixing first)
- Water coming from the waste or taps rather than the bath
Can I fix it myself?
If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, and give it the full curing time. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it won’t stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.
Why repair rather than replace?
People often assume a cracked or chipped bath has to come out. In most cases it doesn’t: a proper repair gives it years more use, and costs far less than the disruption of a replacement.
Questions to ask before you book
- Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price
- Who will actually do the work
- How long it needs to cure
- Whether the colour is mixed to match
Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £95. We charge the same across the UK, including PH15. The price reflects:
- The type of damage
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- Access to the area
- The material
A repair usually costs much less than people expect, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Send photos and we’ll give you the exact figure.
Send pictures for a quote
A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. It helps if you send:
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- Something in shot to show the size
- The material, if you know it
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
Pricing is simple: take a close-up of the damage and a photo from further back, send them over with your postcode, and you will get a fixed price back. Quotes are free and no obligation.
Keeping it looking good
Once the work has cured, treat it gently:
- Have new chips seen to early
- Don’t leave razors or cans standing in the bath
- Clean with warm water and a mild detergent
- Give the bath a quick rinse after use
Give the repair the full curing time we recommend before running a bath. From then on, mild cleaning is all it needs.
Stop using the bath if a crack lets water through until it’s repaired. Water under the bath can damage the floor and the ceiling below.
Your questions about bath repair in PH15
Is repairing better than replacing?
Generally, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. We’ll be honest if it’s not worth it.
How invisible is a bath repair?
On a glossy bath, you will struggle to find it. On worn enamel, it can look shinier than the rest.
What if the damage is worse than the photos show?
Your quote covers the damage in the pictures. Anything extra is discussed before we begin.
Will you leave a mess?
No. The work area is masked and covered, and we take our waste away with us.
Are you accredited?
Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.
How long before I can use the bath?
Most baths can be used the following day. We confirm the time before we leave.
What happens after I send photos?
We check the damage, the material and your postcode, then reply with a quote.
