Bath repair in Pollok without replacing anything

Most baths can be used again the next day. A repair fixes just the damaged area and blends it into the rest of the bath, which costs far less than replacing a fitted bath. We work on roll-top & freestanding, cast iron enamel and pressed steel enamel, and common reasons people get in touch are scratches and burns and rust spots where the enamel has gone.

Every repair comes with our one-year guarantee, wherever you are in Glasgow. Clean with mild, non-abrasive cleaners and avoid dropping heavy items on the repaired area. Get any new chip seen to quickly, before rust can start.

FAQs for Pollok

How much does bath repair cost in Pollok?

Prices start from £95. Every job gets a fixed quote based on pictures of the damage. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo and your postcode, and we’ll come back to you with a quote.

Do you work for landlords and businesses in Pollok?

Yes. We work for homeowners, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses in Pollok and across Glasgow.

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.

What about rust by the waste?

Yes. We take out the rust and any loose enamel, seal and fill the area, then colour-match the finish.

Do you protect the room?

We protect the room with dust sheets and masking before we start, and tidy up before we leave.

How soon can I use it again?

Usually the same day or the next, depending on the job. We’ll tell you the curing time before we leave.

Do I need to be at home?

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

When to call us in Pollok

Nearly all the chips we see comes from something dropped: bottles, shower heads, tiles and tools. On enamelled baths, a chip that reaches 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.

Signs it’s time to call us include:

  • Scratches and burns
  • Damage caused while the bathroom was being fitted
  • Chips from dropped bottles, tiles or tools
  • Cracks and holes in acrylic baths

Questions to ask before you book

How to compare quotes

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 morning or an afternoon. We tidy up before we leave and tell you when it’s ready to use.

  1. We clean the area and remove any loose enamel or rust.
  2. Next we fill the damage and sand it smooth and level.
  3. The colour is mixed on the spot to match your bath.
  4. Finish coats go on, then the repair is polished to blend in.
  5. Once it has cured, usually by the next day, the bath is ready to use.

Advice

When we’d advise against a repair

In fairness, 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

Not sure? Send pictures and we’ll give you a straight answer.

Materials we work on in Pollok

Why repair rather than replace?

Swapping a damaged bath for a new one usually means a plumber, lifting out the old bath, re-tiling and a new panel and disposing of the old one. A repair deals only with the damage in a single visit. Prices start from £95. The price depends on how much damage there is and what kind, what it’s made of and how many jobs we combine into one visit. You get a fixed quote from your pictures, so you know the cost before you book.
