Bath repair in Newhaven 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. Most baths can be used again the next day. We work on pressed steel enamel, whirlpool & spa baths and roll-top & freestanding, and common reasons people get in touch are scratches and burns and cracks and holes in acrylic baths.
Every repair is covered by a one-year guarantee, wherever you are in Edinburgh. Clean with mild, non-abrasive cleaners and avoid dropping heavy items on the repaired area. Deal with new chips early, before rust can start.

Do you need bath repair in Newhaven?
Nearly all the chips we see starts with something being 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, on the other hand, tend to crack if they aren’t properly supported, usually near the taps or the waste.
People usually call us when they notice one of these:
- Cracks and holes in acrylic baths
- Rust spots where the enamel has gone
- Damage caused while the bathroom was being fitted
- Chips from dropped bottles, tiles or tools

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

FAQs for Newhaven
Will you leave a mess?
We cover the area with dust sheets and mask nearby surfaces before we start, and clean up when we finish.
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.
What guarantee do I get?
Every repair comes with our one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.
What about rust by the waste?
Yes. We remove the rust and loose enamel, fill the area, then colour-match the finish.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
Usually, if the item is otherwise sound. A repair avoids removal and making good. We’ll tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.

Yes. We carry out repairs for homeowners, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses.

How it works
When we visit, 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 tell you when it’s ready to use.
- First, the area is cleaned and any loose enamel or rust is removed.
- We fill the damage and sand it flush with the surrounding surface.
- 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.
- We leave it to cure; you can usually use the bath the next day.
Getting ready for the visit
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
- Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
- Let us know about parking or access
