Hadston questions
Is a bath repair permanent?
A properly prepared repair should last a long time, and ours come with a one-year guarantee. Gentle cleaning helps.
Do you work in Hadston?
Yes, we do. Technicians travel to Hadston from across the region, and the price is the same as everywhere else.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
Usually, if the item is otherwise sound. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. If replacing would be better, we will say so.
Is my repair covered?
Yes: twelve months. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.
Are there extra charges for Hadston?
We do not add a call-out fee. Your fixed price includes everything.
Can you repair something that’s been repaired before?
Yes, we frequently do. Removing the old work can add time, and that is in the quote.
Can I get a quote without a visit?
Normally, yes. Clear pictures let us give you a fixed quote without visiting.
What do you need from me?
Some pictures, your postcode and how to reach you. On the day, we only need access to the room.

Different materials, different repairs
Pressed steel
Pressed steel is thinner and lighter, with an enamel finish like cast iron. Exposed steel rusts fast, particularly by the plughole, so early repairs matter.
Cast iron
Cast iron baths are thick and very strong, finished with fired enamel. Chips can rust if left, but the bath itself lasts for generations, so it’s always worth repairing.
Keeping it looking good
A little care keeps the finish looking good. We recommend:
- Fix dripping taps early to stop staining and limescale
- Don’t leave a fresh chip for long
- Clean with warm water and a mild detergent
- Check that an acrylic bath doesn’t move when you stand in it
Clean with mild, non-abrasive cleaners and try not to drop heavy bottles on the repair. Get any new chip seen to quickly, before rust sets in.
Small chips are quick to repair. Left alone, they stain and can rust, so early repair saves time and money.
For landlords and businesses
We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Hadston as well as householders. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it usually costs far less than a refit.
We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which is easier on the people living there.
Should I try a DIY kit first?
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, ensure the area is clean and completely dry, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, then guarantee it for a year.

The process
It’s a tidy, low-fuss visit. We agree the arrival time in advance, cover and mask the work area, then carry out the work, which typically takes two to three hours for most chips. If we find something your photos didn’t show, we will explain it before carrying on.
- 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.
- The repair is left to cure, and most baths can be used the day after.
Getting ready for the visit
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
- Let the surface dry out before the visit

Should you replace it?
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. Our bath repair starts from £95. There are no surprise extras on the day. The price we quote from your photos is the price you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.

Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £95. A fixed quote means you know the cost before you book. We take into account:
- How many items we do on one visit
- How much damage there is
- Unusual colours or finishes
- What the surface is made of
We charge the same wherever you are, with no extra for Hadston. The job itself decides the price: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.
Quotes from your photos
It only takes a minute to photograph the damage, and it saves a visit. Please include:
- Something in shot to show the size
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- A wider photo showing the entire bath
- What it’s made of, if you know
Pricing is simple: take a close-up of the damage and a photo from further back, send them over with your postcode, and you’ll get a fixed quote back. There is no charge for the quote and no obligation.
Honest limits
Not everything can be repaired, and we would rather say so up front. We cannot fix:
- Wear across the whole surface, which needs re-enamelling
- Cracks in parts of an acrylic bath we can’t get to from below
- Leaking fittings, which need a plumber
