Our bath repair service in TD11

Whatever has happened to the bath, we aim for the same result: a smooth, solid repair that blends in. Proper preparation, careful filling and shaping, then colour and gloss matching so it sits flush with the rest of the bath. Our technicians work on acrylic, pressed steel enamel and cast iron enamel, and common reasons people get in touch are holes from dropped items and snagging damage from a refit.

We begin by going over the job with you. Then the area is sheeted and masked and the work begins. You can expect it to take a few hours, depending on the damage, and we will tell you if anything changes.

  1. Dust sheets and masking go down around the bath.
  2. We clean, key and degrease the damage.
  3. We fill it, let it set, then sand it flush.
  4. Colour and gloss are matched to the surrounding surface.
  5. We tidy up and tell you when the bath can be used, usually the day after.

What it costs in TD11

Our bath repair starts from £95. Instead of hourly rates, we price the whole job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and combining items on one visit brings it down.

Signs you need bath repair

Glass and heavy bottles cause more chips than anything else. Taps and wastes cause problems too: water sits around them, and any chip there soon rusts.

The most common problems we are called about are:

  • Scratches you can feel with a fingernail
  • Snagging damage from a refit
  • Impact holes in acrylic
  • A chip where the taps sit

Looking after it afterwards

Aftercare is simple, and it makes a real difference:

  • Fix dripping taps early to stop staining and limescale
  • Give the bath a quick rinse after use
  • Ensure an acrylic bath is firm underfoot
  • Clean with warm water and a mild detergent

Give the repair the full curing time we recommend before running a bath. From then on, mild cleaning is all it needs.

Until we visit, a strip of waterproof tape over the damage helps, to keep water out. Take it off before we arrive.

What bath repair costs

Prices start from £95. A fixed quote means you know the cost before you book. We look at:

  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • Unusual colours or finishes

Every job is a little different, so we price each one individually. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all make a difference, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

How to get a fixed price

Phone photos are fine, there is no need for anything special. Just ensure we can see:

  • A photo taken from further back
  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare

The quickest way to a price is to send two or three photos using our quote form or ring us. We will tell you honestly if a repair is the right fix.

Can I fix it myself?

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair will not last.

TD11 questions

Do you repair coloured baths?

Yes. We mix the colour on the day to match, including older coloured suites.

Do you come to TD11?

Yes. We work across the UK and come to TD11. Send us pictures for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

Something went through my bath. Can it be fixed?

Frequently, if there’s access underneath. The hole is backed, filled and refinished to match.

Can you redo an old repair?

Yes. We remove the old filler and start again. Mention it when you send pictures.

Will I be able to see the repair?

The goal is a repair that blends in. How well it disappears depends on the condition of the rest of the bath, and we’ll tell you what to expect.

Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as householders across the Scottish Borders.
