How it works
When we visit, we arrive at the time we’ve agreed, cover the area with dust sheets and masking, and set to work. The job usually takes a few hours. We tidy up before we leave and let you know when you can use it again.
- We start by cleaning the damage and taking out loose enamel and rust.
- Next we fill the damage and sand it smooth and level.
- We tint the finish on the day to suit your bath’s shade of white or colour.
- Finish coats go on, then the repair is polished to blend in.
- Once it has cured, usually by the next day, the bath is ready to use.
Before we arrive
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
- Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
- Open a window if you can

Advice
How we handle bath repair in Dalry
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 and the tiles around it. You can usually use the bath the next day. We work on pressed steel enamel, cast iron enamel and roll-top & freestanding, and people most often call us about damage caused while the bathroom was being fitted and cracks and holes in acrylic baths.
Your repair is guaranteed for a year, as with every job we do. Use gentle, non-abrasive cleaners and try not to drop heavy bottles on the repair. Deal with new chips early, before rust sets in.

Common questions in Dalry
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
Usually, when the rest is in good condition. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. We’ll tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.
How soon can I use it again?
Usually the same day or the next, depending on what we’ve done. We’ll confirm the exact time when we finish.
Can you repair a crack in an acrylic bath?
Usually, yes, if we can reach the underside to reinforce it. Check under the bath panel, or send us a photo.
What about rust by the waste?
Yes. We take out the rust and any loose enamel, fill the area, then colour-match the finish.
How do I get a price for bath repair in Dalry?
Prices start from £95. Every job gets a fixed quote from your photos. Send a close-up and a photo of the whole item with your EH3 postcode, and we’ll reply with the price.
Do I need to be at home?
Yes, usually. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time we agree with you.
Is the work guaranteed?
All our work carries our one-year guarantee. We’ll explain what it covers when we quote.
Signs you need bath repair in Dalry
Nearly all the chips we see starts with something being dropped: a shampoo bottle, a shower head, a tile or a tool during a refit. On enamelled baths, any chip down to the metal lets water in, and rust follows. Acrylic baths, on the other hand, tend to crack if they aren’t properly supported, usually near the taps or the waste.
People usually call us after spotting something like this:
- Chips from dropped bottles, tiles or tools
- Cracks and holes in acrylic baths
- Rust spots where the enamel has gone
- Scratches and burns
Questions to ask before you book

- What preparation is included
- How long the guarantee is and what it covers

Why repair rather than replace?
Swapping a damaged bath for a new one usually means a plumber, removing the old bath, making good the tiles and panel and getting rid of the old bath. Repairing it fixes just the damaged area 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 photos, so there are no surprises on the day.

What a repair can’t fix
Not everything can be repaired, 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
