How we handle bath repair in Great Harwood
Small damage on a bath is worth repairing early. Exposed metal on enamelled baths soon rusts, and on acrylic, a crack keeps spreading while the bath flexes. Repairing it stops the damage getting worse. If you’re dealing with deep scratches in acrylic and a hole punched through by something heavy, we can help, whatever the material.
All of our repairs are guaranteed for twelve months in Great Harwood and everywhere else. If something goes wrong with the work, we come back.

Looking after it afterwards
It’s all simple stuff, just a few sensible habits:
- Do not leave a fresh chip for long
- If an acrylic bath flexes, have its feet adjusted
- Do not scrub with anything abrasive
- Do not leave razors or cans standing in the bath
There’s nothing special to do after a repair. Avoid bleach-based and gritty cleaners.
Rust under enamel spreads surprisingly quickly. A chip the size of a fingernail can become a much larger patch if it’s left for months, so it pays to deal with it early.
What we’re called out for in Great Harwood
A cracked acrylic bath usually wasn’t supported properly. Legs that aren’t adjusted, a missing cradle or a soft floor let the base flex until the acrylic gives way.
You may need us if you’ve spotted any of these:
- Chips caused by builders
- Deep scratches in acrylic
- Chips under the taps
- Rusty patches near the plughole

Other services in Great Harwood
For landlords and businesses
Rental properties take more wear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.
Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover, so there’s no need to replace a damaged item at the last minute. Several plots can be done in one visit to keep costs down.
What we can’t put right
To be straight with you, some problems need a different fix:
- Metal that has corroded all the way through
- Leaking fittings, which need a plumber
- A bath that flexes because its feet or cradle have failed (that needs fixing first)
Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly.
What we work on
- Acrylic
- Whirlpool & spa baths
- Roll-top & freestanding
- Pressed steel enamel
- Cast iron enamel
DIY kit or professional repair?
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.
What we do, step by step
Once we are through the door, we keep the work contained to the one room. Surfaces nearby are masked off, the job takes two to three hours for most chips, depending on what we find, and we finish by cleaning up and talking you through the result.
- We clean the area and remove any loose enamel or rust.
- Next we fill the damage and sand it smooth and level.
- The colour is mixed on the spot to match your bath.
- We apply the finish coats and polish the repair so it blends in.
- Once it has cured, typically by the next day, the bath is ready to use.
How to prepare
- Let us know which floor the room is on
- Have a window or extractor fan available
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work

FAQs for Great Harwood
Is a repair better than a new one?
Generally, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. We will be honest if it’s not worth it.
How invisible is a bath repair?
The goal is a repair that blends in. How well it disappears depends on the condition of the rest of the bath.
Can you repair something that’s been repaired before?
Generally, yes. Let us know what was used before.
Can you match an avocado or pink bath?
Yes, we match coloured baths too. The colour is tinted by hand on the day.
Can tenants book a repair?
We are happy to deal with the tenant, landlord or agent. Get your landlord’s agreement first.
Is there a call-out fee?
Travel is included in the price, with the same prices everywhere we work.
What do you need from me?
Send photos through the quote form or call 0345 017 0787, and we’ll take it from there.
Will you leave a mess?
Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and tidy up before we leave.

What bath repair costs
Prices start from £95. Prices are worked out job by job, from your photos. The main factors are:
- Unusual colours or finishes
- Access to the area
- Doing more than one item at once
- The type of damage
A repair usually costs much less than people expect, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Send pictures and we will give you the exact figure.
Send photos for a quote
The better the pictures, the more accurate the price. Here’s what helps:
- Natural light rather than flash
- A picture taken from further back
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
The quickest way to a price is to send two or three photos using our quote form or ring us. We will tell you honestly if a repair is the right fix.
Why repair rather than replace?
If the rest of the bath is in good condition, a repair is almost always the better choice. It’s quicker, cheaper and far less disruptive, and the bathroom stays as it is. If the whole surface is worn, re-enamelling may make more sense, and we will tell you. Prices start from £95. We charge the same wherever you are, so there’s no premium for Great Harwood. What changes the price is the job itself: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.
