How we handle bath repair in Temple

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. Most baths can be used again the next day. Our technicians work on pressed steel enamel, roll-top & freestanding and whirlpool & spa baths, and people most often call us about chips from dropped bottles, tiles or tools and scratches and burns.

A one-year guarantee comes with the work, just as it does everywhere we cover. 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.

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 deals only with the damage in a single visit. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. What it costs 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 price from your photos, so you know the cost before you book.

  • We come to you, anywhere in the UK

Signs you need bath repair in Temple

Nearly all the chips we see comes from something dropped: bottles, shower heads, tiles and tools. On steel and cast iron baths, any chip down to the metal lets water in, and rust follows. Acrylic baths crack when they flex, often around the taps or the plughole.

It’s worth getting a quote if you see:

  • Scratches and burns
  • Cracks and holes in acrylic baths
  • Rust spots where the enamel has gone
  • Damage caused while the bathroom was being fitted

Questions to ask before you book

  • What aftercare is recommended
  • How long the guarantee is and what it covers
  • Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT
  • How your room will be protected

What a repair can’t fix

To be straight with you, some problems need a different 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 pictures and we’ll tell you honestly.

FAQs for Temple

What about rust by the waste?

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

Do you come to Temple?

Yes. We work across the UK and come to Temple and the rest of Glasgow. Send photos and we’ll quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

How do I get a price for bath repair in Temple?

Prices start from £95. Every job gets a fixed price based on photos 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.

When can I use it again after the repair?

Usually the same day or the next, depending on what we’ve done. We’ll confirm the exact time when we finish.

Does someone need to be in?

Yes. The technician needs access to the room while we work, at a time we agree with you.

What guarantee do I get?

Every repair comes with a one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.

Should I repair or replace?

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 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 clean up when we’re done 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. We mix the colour on the day to match your bath’s exact shade.
  4. We apply the finish coats and polish the repair so it blends in.
  5. Once it has cured, usually by the next day, the bath is ready to use.

How to prepare

  • Make sure the room can be ventilated
  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access
