Bath Repair in Hainton
Problem with your bath in Hainton? We repair it in place, match it on site and back it with a one-year guarantee.
- Repairs from £95
- A cracked acrylic bath
- Scuffs and scratches in the surface
Should I try a DIY kit first?
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.
A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it does not stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.
How we handle bath repair in Hainton
Whether your bath is steel, cast iron or acrylic, we can repair it. Each material is repaired a little differently: rust is treated on metal baths, while cracks in acrylic are reinforced from underneath. We are often asked to fix impact holes in acrylic and scuffs and scratches in the surface, on cast iron enamel, roll-top & freestanding and pressed steel enamel.
Every repair comes with a one-year guarantee, wherever you are in Lincolnshire.

How to look after the repair
To keep it looking its best for years:
- Get any new chip repaired before it rusts
- Do not scrub with anything abrasive
- Give the bath a quick rinse after use
- Cover the bath during DIY or decorating
For the first few days, keep heavy bottles off the repaired spot. After that, normal gentle cleaning is fine, avoiding abrasives.
Rust spreads under enamel faster than most people expect. 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 bath repair costs
Repairs from £95. There’s no area surcharge for Hainton. The price reflects:
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- The material
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
No two jobs are quite the same, so each one is priced on its own. The size and type of damage, the material and access all play a part, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.
Quotes from your pictures
It only takes a minute to photograph the damage. Try to send:
- A wider photo showing the entire bath
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- What it’s made of, if you know
Email us a picture of the damage and one of the whole item, and tell us you’re in Hainton, and we’ll reply with a fixed price.
What your bath is made of matters
Pressed steel
Steel baths are lighter than cast iron, but have a similar enamel surface. Chips rust quickly on steel, especially around the waste, so early repairs matter.
Acrylic
Acrylic feels warm and is light, but it relies on good support. Repairs to cracks are reinforced from the back.
Repairing versus replacing in Hainton
People often assume a cracked or chipped bath has to come out. In most cases it doesn’t: a repair keeps the bath in service for years, and costs far less than the disruption of a replacement. Prices start from £95. Our prices are the same across the UK, with no extra for Hainton. What changes the price is the job itself: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

Common questions in Hainton
Can you repair a chip on a coloured bath?
Yes, coloured baths are no problem. The colour is tinted by hand on the day.
I tried a repair kit. Can you fix it?
Yes, we do this frequently. We strip it out, deal with any rust and repair it again.
What about rust by the waste?
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. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. We’ll be honest if it’s not worth it.
Is it safe with children and pets around?
Please keep children and pets out of the room during the visit. Everywhere else in the home is fine.
Is it messy?
Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and tidy up before we leave.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Yes. Doing several items on one visit usually costs less than separate visits. Send pictures of everything you’d like done.
Will I be able to see the repair?
On a bath in good condition, a colour-matched repair is very hard to spot. On older, dull enamel the repair can look glossier than the area around it.
What we do, step by step
We turn up when we said we would, introduces themselves and looks over the damage before anything else. Dust sheets and masking tape go down before we open a single tin. Most visits take two to three hours for most chips, and we leave the room as we found it.
- We start by looking at the damage and confirming the plan with you.
- Any rust and loose material comes out, and the area is degreased.
- The damage is filled in layers and shaped to the curve of the bath.
- We tint the finish by hand to match the bath.
- The repair is polished to the same gloss as the bath and left to cure.
Getting ready for the visit
- Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
- Ensure the room can be ventilated
