Whatever has happened to the bath, we aim for the same result: a smooth, solid repair that blends in. Proper preparation, careful filling and shaping, then colour and gloss matching so it sits flush with the rest of the bath.

What a repair cannot fix

A repair is not right for every job, including:

  • Flexing caused by a failed cradle or loose feet
  • Acrylic cracks with no access behind them
  • A whole bath that’s dull or worn, where a full re-enamel is the better fix

If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think.

Surfaces we repair

  • Acrylic
  • Roll-top & freestanding
  • Whirlpool & spa baths
  • Cast iron enamel
  • Pressed steel enamel

How the visit works

Arrival times are agreed in advance. Once we’re there, the work takes a few hours. We leave the room clean.

  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. We leave it to cure; you can normally use the bath the day after.

How to prepare

  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
  • Make sure the area is dry
  • Have a window or extractor fan available

Advice

Aftercare tips

So the finish stays in good condition for years:

  • Fix dripping taps early to stop staining and limescale
  • Put a towel in the bath if you are working above it
  • Check that an acrylic bath does not move when you stand in it
  • Keep metal cans and razors off the surface

In the first few days, avoid putting weight or bottles on the repair. After that, clean it as you would the rest of the bath.

Until we visit, a strip of waterproof tape over the damage helps, so water can’t get in. Take it off before we arrive.

Prices and what affects them

Repairs from £95. Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we look at:

  • How much damage there is
  • The material and finish
  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first

What it costs depends on how much damage there is and what kind, the material and how many items we do on one visit. We give a fixed price from your photos, so you know the cost before booking.

Getting a price from photos

Before you send photos, these tips help us give you a firm price:

  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • Any details about the material
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare

Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us photos through the quote form. With one close-up and one wider picture, we can price the job the same day in most cases.

DIY kit or professional repair?

It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is normally cheaper.

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.

Should you replace it?

People often assume a cracked or chipped bath has to come out. In most cases it does not: a proper repair gives it years more use, and costs far less than the disruption of a replacement. Prices start from £95. There are no surprise extras on the day. What we quote from your pictures is what you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.

Common questions in Hack Green

Can you repair a hole in a bath?

Typically. Send us a photo of the hole and one from under the bath if you can.

I’m a tenant. Can you help?

Yes, though it’s best to check with your landlord first. Many landlords are happy for a repair to be arranged.

How do I book?

Some pictures, your postcode and how to reach you. On the day, we only need access to the room.

Can a cracked acrylic bath be fixed?

In most cases. The back of the crack is strengthened before the front is filled and refinished, so we need access under the bath.

Will the price change on the day?

It’s rare, but if it happens we talk to you first. You decide whether to go ahead.

Can you redo someone else’s repair?

Yes, regularly. It can add a little time, which we include in the quote.

Can rust on a bath be repaired?

Yes, very frequently. We take it back to sound metal, seal it, fill it and match the colour.

Is a repair better than a new one?

In most cases, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. We’ll be honest if it’s not worth it.

Different materials, different repairs

Cast iron

Cast iron is heavy and rigid, finished with fired enamel. A chip down to the iron can rust, but the bath itself lasts for generations, which makes it well worth repairing.

Acrylic

Acrylic feels warm and is light, but it relies on good support. Repairs to cracks are reinforced from the back.
