Bath repair in Bonnington without replacing anything
A repair fixes just the damaged area and blends it into the rest of the bath, which is far cheaper than replacing a fitted bath. Most baths can be used again the next day. We work on acrylic, whirlpool & spa baths and cast iron enamel, and people most often call us about cracks and holes in acrylic baths and damage caused while the bathroom was being fitted.
Every repair comes with our one-year guarantee, wherever you are in Edinburgh. Use gentle, non-abrasive cleaners and avoid dropping heavy items on the repaired area. Deal with new chips early, before rust can start.

Why repair rather than replace?
Replacing a fitted bath normally involves a plumber, removing the old bath, re-tiling and a new panel and disposing of the old one. Repairing it deals only with the damage in one visit. Prices start from £95. The price depends on how much damage there is and what kind, the material and how many items we do on one visit. You get a fixed quote from your photos, so you know the cost before you book.

Signs you need bath repair in Bonnington
Nearly all the chips we see comes from something dropped: a shampoo bottle, a shower head, a tile or a tool during a refit. On steel and cast iron baths, any chip down to the metal will start to rust once water gets in. Acrylic baths tend to crack if they aren’t properly supported, usually near the taps or the waste.
Most people get in touch after spotting one of these:
- Damage caused while the bathroom was being fitted
- Rust spots where the enamel has gone
- Chips from dropped bottles, tiles or tools
- Scratches and burns

Questions from Bonnington
Is the work guaranteed?
All our work carries a one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.
Can you fix rust around the plughole?
Yes. We remove the rust and loose enamel, seal and fill the area, then colour-match the finish.
Do you work for landlords and businesses in Bonnington?

How much does bath repair cost in Bonnington?
Prices start from £95. We give a fixed quote based on pictures of the damage. Send a close-up and a photo of the whole item and your postcode, and we’ll reply with the price.
How soon can I use it again?
Usually by the next day, depending on what we’ve done. We’ll confirm the exact time when we finish.
Should I repair or replace?
Usually, if the item is otherwise sound. A repair avoids removal and making good. If replacing would be better, we’ll say so.
Can a cracked acrylic bath be fixed?
Usually, 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.

When we’d advise against a repair
To be straight with you, there are a few things a repair won’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 before you book.

What happens on the day
When we visit, we arrive at the time we’ve agreed, cover the area with dust sheets and masking, and set to work. Expect it to take a few hours. We tidy up before we leave and let you know when you can use it again.
- First, the area is cleaned and any loose enamel or rust is removed.
- The chip or crack is filled, then sanded level with the bath.
- We tint the finish on the day to suit your bath’s shade of white or colour.
- We build up the finish and polish it into the surrounding enamel.
- Once it has cured, usually by the next day, the bath is ready to use.
Before we arrive
- Let us know about parking or access
- Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
