Should I try a DIY kit first?
A DIY attempt is not a disaster. 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.
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.

FAQs for Hanbury
Can you repair something that is been repaired before?
Yes, regularly. Removing the old work can add time, and that is in the quote.
Can you repair several things at once?
Of course, and it typically saves money. Just add the extra items to your pictures and you will get one combined price.
Can tenants book a repair?
Yes. Check with your landlord; we can send the quote to them too.
Can you quote from photos?
Generally, yes. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed price.
Do you do work for letting agents?
We do, regularly. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.
Are you a vetted contractor?
Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.
Do you repair coloured baths?
Yes, coloured baths are no problem. We tint the finish to your bath on site.
Is a bath repair permanent?
Done properly, a repair lasts for years, and it’s guaranteed for a year. Gentle cleaning helps it last.
Different materials, different repairs
Pressed steel
Under the enamel of a steel bath is thin metal. Exposed steel rusts quickly, so the metal is treated and sealed before the repair.
Acrylic
Acrylic is light and warm to the touch, but it relies on good support. Cracks are strengthened from behind before the front is finished.
Repair or replace in Hanbury?
A new bath costs more than the bath itself: removal and disposal, plumbing, a new panel, tiling and decorating. With a repair, it’s one visit and one price. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. A few things move the price: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

When we’d advise against a repair

Aftercare tips
To keep it looking its best:
- Clean with warm water and a mild detergent
- Check that an acrylic bath does not move when you stand in it
- Fix dripping taps early to stop staining and limescale
- Avoid scourers, wire wool and gritty cream cleaners
A repaired bath needs no special treatment, beyond gentle cleaning. Avoid bleach-based and gritty cleaners and give it a rinse after each bath.
Rust spreads under enamel faster than most people expect. Left for months, a small chip can grow into a large rust patch, so early repair keeps the cost down.
How the visit works
Visits start with a quick look at the job together, so you know exactly what we are doing. After that, protection goes down around the work area and the work begins. It normally takes two to three hours for most chips.
- First, the area is cleaned and any loose enamel or rust is removed.
- The chip or crack is filled, then sanded level with the bath.
- We mix the colour on the day to match your bath’s exact shade.
- Finish coats go on, then the repair is polished to blend in.
- Once it has cured, generally by the following day, the bath is ready to use.
Getting ready for the visit
- Keep a parking space free if you can
- Have a window or extractor fan available
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
