Our bath repair service in TD7
A typical bath repair is a few hours’ work, and the bath is back in use the following day. There is no need to book a plumber or tiler, because nothing is disconnected. We are frequently asked to fix a failed DIY repair that’s discoloured or lifting and scratches you can feel with a fingernail, on roll-top & freestanding, cast iron enamel and whirlpool & spa baths.
It’s a tidy, low-fuss visit. We agree the arrival time in advance, cover and mask the work area, then carry out the work, which normally takes a morning or an afternoon. If anything looks different from your photos, we will talk to you before going ahead.
- We start by looking at the damage and confirming the plan with you.
- Loose enamel, rust and dirt are removed so the repair can bond.
- We build up the filler in layers, shaping it to the bath.
- We tint the finish by hand to match the bath.
- The repair is polished to the same gloss as the bath and left to cure.
What you’ll pay
Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. A few things move the price: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Send photos and you will get a fixed figure.
Why book with us
- We will tell you if it’s not worth repairing
- We come to you, anywhere in the UK
- One-year guarantee on every repair
- No need to remove anything

Repairing versus replacing
Many people think a damaged bath means a new one. In most cases it does not: a proper repair gives it years more use, and costs far less than the disruption of a replacement.
Questions to ask before you book
- If travel is included in the price
- Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT
- Whether a trained technician does the job
- What the guarantee covers, and for how long
What affects the price in TD7
Repairs from £95. Each job gets its own fixed quote. These are the things that affect it:
- The material
- How many items we do on one visit
- How many areas need work
- How easy the damage is to reach
Our prices are the same across the UK, with no extra for TD7. The job itself decides the price: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.
Quotes from your photos
When you take your photos, a few simple things make all the difference:
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- Natural light rather than flash
- Any details about the material
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
Upload pictures of the damage and a wider shot of the entire item, and tell us you’re in TD7, and we will reply with a fixed price.
Aftercare tips
So the finish stays in good condition for years:
- If an acrylic bath flexes, have its feet adjusted
- Do not scrub with anything abrasive
- Cover the bath during DIY or decorating
- Use a soft cloth and washing-up liquid for everyday cleaning
In the first few days, avoid putting weight or bottles on the repair. After that, normal gentle cleaning is fine, avoiding abrasives.
Small chips are quick to repair. Left alone, they stain and can rust, so it’s worth getting them done early.
Honest limits
We’ll always be straight with you, so here’s what a repair cannot fix:
- Leaks from the waste or overflow fittings (a plumber’s job)
- A whole bath that’s dull or worn, where a full re-enamel is the better fix
- A steel bath rusted through
Can I fix it myself?
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
TD7 questions
What information do you need?
A close-up, a wider photo and your postcode. After that, we just agree a date.
Can you repair several things at once?
Yes, and it’s often cheaper. Just add the extra items to your pictures and we’ll quote them together.
Can landlords book you?
Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as householders across the Scottish Borders.
Is a bath repair durable?
Done properly, a repair lasts for years, and it’s guaranteed for a year. Gentle cleaning helps.
Is there a guarantee?
Every repair comes with our one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.
Do you repair coloured baths?
Yes. We mix the colour on the day to match, including pastel and older colours.
Do I have to be there?
Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time we agree with you.
