About our bath repair in Harden
You do not need a new bath because of a chip. Our repair technicians fill, shape and refinish the damage, with the colour mixed on site so the repair is hard to spot. Our technicians work on cast iron enamel, roll-top & freestanding and acrylic, and people most often call us about chips on the rim or sides and scuffs and scratches in the surface.
You get a one-year guarantee, the same in Harden as everywhere else we work.

Common questions in Harden
Something went through my bath. Can it be fixed?
Normally. Photos of the hole and the underside help us check.
Can you do more than one item on the same visit?
Yes, and it’s often cheaper. Send pictures of everything together and we’ll quote them together.
Is my repair covered?
Yes, for a year. If there’s a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.
Do the materials smell?
There may be a mild smell during the work.
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
Just keep them out of the work area. We will let you know when it’s safe to use again.
Is it messy?
Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we leave the room clean.
It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?
Yes, we often do. Removing the old work can add time, and that is in the quote.
Can you price it without visiting?
Typically, yes. Clear pictures let us give you a fixed price without visiting.
When a repair is not the answer
Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:
- Rust that has eaten right through a steel bath
- Leaks from the waste or overflow fittings (a plumber’s job)
- A bath that moves underfoot, until its support is fixed
Not sure? Send photos and we’ll give you a straight answer.
Materials we work on in Harden

Aftercare tips
Simple care helps the repair last. We recommend:
- Avoid scourers, wire wool and gritty cream cleaners
- Store metal items away from the bath
- Don’t leave a fresh chip for long
- Use a soft cloth and washing-up liquid for everyday cleaning
Don’t leave razors, cans or hair grips in the bath, because they can mark the enamel. A dripping tap should be fixed early, too.
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 early repair keeps the cost down.

DIY repairs versus a professional job
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.
A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.

What bath repair costs
Repairs from £95. We do not charge extra for travel to Harden. The price depends on:
- How easy the damage is to reach
- Whether we combine several jobs
- What kind of damage it is
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Photos let us give you the exact figure.
Getting a price from photos
It only takes a minute to photograph the damage. Please include:
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- One picture of the whole bath
- Any details about the material
- Something in shot to show the size
For a price in Harden, the easiest route is pictures: a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode. You will get a fixed quote with dates to choose from.
What your bath is made of matters
Cast iron
Cast iron baths are so heavy that repairing in place makes obvious sense. The enamel is the part that wears or chips, and that is what we repair.
Composite and resin
Composite baths are dense and solid, and frequently freestanding. Chips and scratches can be filled and colour-matched, just like other baths.
Should you replace it?
A new bath costs more than the bath itself: taking out the old one, plumbing, tiling, a panel and redecorating. With a repair, it’s one visit and one price. Prices start from £95. The price reflects the work involved, not where you live. The full price is agreed before booking, with nothing added on the day.

How it works
Arrival times are agreed in advance, so you’re not left guessing. On site, it takes a morning or an afternoon in most cases. We leave the room clean.
- 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.
- We apply the finish coats and polish the repair so it blends in.
- We leave it to cure; you can typically use the bath the day after.
Preparing for the visit
- Tell us about parking, stairs or access
- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
- Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
Getting a price
Getting a price is easy: take a close-up of the damage and a photo from further back, send them to us with your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote. Quotes are free and you’re under no obligation.
