How much does bath repair cost in Barrhead?

Prices start from £95. We give a fixed price from your photos. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo and your postcode, and we’ll reply with the price.

Do I need to be at home?

Yes. We need access to the room while we work, and we’ll agree a time with you.

Can you repair a crack in an acrylic bath?

Often, 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 photo.

Bath repair in Barrhead without replacing anything

We repair just the damaged spot and colour-match it to the bath, which costs far less than replacing a fitted bath and the tiles around it. You can usually use the bath the next day. Our technicians work on cast iron enamel, whirlpool & spa baths and pressed steel enamel, and people most often call us about damage caused while the bathroom was being fitted and scratches and burns.

All our work is covered by our one-year guarantee, wherever you are in East Renfrewshire. Clean with mild, non-abrasive cleaners and try not to drop heavy bottles on the repair. Get any new chip seen to quickly, before rust sets in.

How it works

On the day, the technician arrives at the agreed time, protects the room with dust sheets and masking and gets started. Expect it to take a few hours. We tidy up before we leave and let you know when you can use it again.

  1. First, the area is cleaned and any loose enamel or rust is removed.
  2. We fill the damage and sand it flush with the surrounding surface.
  3. We tint the finish on the day to suit your bath’s shade of white or colour.
  4. Finish coats go on, then the repair is polished to blend in.
  5. The repair is left to cure, and most baths can be used the next day.

Advice

Repairing versus replacing in Barrhead

Swapping a damaged bath for a new one usually means a plumber, lifting out the old bath, making good the tiles and panel and disposing of the old one. A repair deals only with the damage in one visit. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. The price depends on the type and amount of damage, the material and how many jobs we combine into one visit. We give a fixed price from your pictures, so there are no surprises on the day.

When we’d advise against a repair

A repair isn’t always the answer, and we’ll tell you before we start. We can’t fix:

  • Cracks in acrylic we can’t reach from underneath
  • A bath that flexes because its feet or cradle have failed (that needs fixing first)
  • A whole bath that’s dull or worn, where a full re-enamel is the better fix

Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly.

Do you need bath repair in Barrhead?

Nearly all the chips we see comes from something dropped: bottles, shower heads, tiles and tools. On steel and cast iron baths, a chip that reaches the metal will start to rust once water gets in. Acrylic baths crack when they flex, usually near the taps or the waste.

It’s worth getting a quote if you see:

  • Rust spots where the enamel has gone
  • Damage caused while the bathroom was being fitted
  • Scratches and burns
  • Chips from dropped bottles, tiles or tools
