Bath repair at your home in Hardwick
A damaged bath doesn’t have to mean a new bathroom. Our technicians fill, shape and refinish the damage, mixing the colour on the day so the repair is hard to spot. Our repair technicians work on cast iron enamel, roll-top & freestanding and whirlpool & spa baths, and common reasons people get in touch are impact holes in acrylic and scuffs and scratches in the surface.
A one-year guarantee comes as standard, so you’re covered after the visit.

How the visit works
We turn up when we said we would and looks over the damage before anything else. Dust sheets and masking tape go down before we open a single tin. The work itself takes two to three hours for most chips, and the room is left clean and tidy.
- We protect the bath and the floor around it.
- We clean, key and degrease the damage, and any rust is treated.
- We fill it, let it set, then sand it flush.
- Colour and gloss are matched to the surrounding surface.
- We clear up and give you the curing time, normally until the next day.
Getting ready for the visit
- Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat

What affects the price in Hardwick
Prices start from £95. You will know the full cost before booking. We look at:
- How much damage there is
- Access to the area
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access.
Quotes from your pictures
Two or three clear photos are typically enough. Try to include:
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- A photo taken from further back
- What it’s made of, if you know
- Natural light rather than flash
For most jobs, photos are all we need to give you a price. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we will send back a fixed quote and some dates.
Honest limits
A repair is not right for every job, for example:
- A whole bath that’s dull or worn, where a full re-enamel is the better fix
- Water coming from the waste or taps rather than the bath
- A bath that moves underfoot, until its support is fixed
If in doubt, send photos and we will say what we think before you book.
Materials we repair
- Pressed steel enamel
- Roll-top & freestanding
- Acrylic
- Whirlpool & spa baths
- Cast iron enamel
Common problems we fix in Hardwick
Damage during fitting is very common. Tools, tiles and fittings get dropped into the bath, and the damage isn’t always spotted until later. Snagging repairs like these are a regular job for us.
Get in touch if you’ve noticed any of these:
- A cracked acrylic bath
- A kit repair that didn’t last
- Damage done while the bathroom was being fitted
- Impact holes in acrylic

- A fixed quote, and whether VAT is included

Why repair rather than replace?
A new bath costs more than the bath itself: removal and disposal, plumbing, a new panel, tiling and decorating. A repair is one job, done in one visit. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. A repair is priced on what needs doing, not where you live. The full price is agreed before you book, with no extras added later.
Why Hardwick clients choose us

Hardwick: your questions answered
Do you work for landlords and businesses?
Yes. We carry out repairs for householders, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses across Northamptonshire.
What does bath repair cost?
Repairs from £95. We give a fixed price from your photos. Send a close-up and a photo of the entire item with your NN9 postcode.
Is a holed acrylic bath repairable?
Typically. Send us a photo of the hole and one from under the bath if you can.
What happens if you find more damage?
If we find something the photos didn’t show, we explain it first. You decide whether to go ahead.
Are you accredited?
We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
Yes, but check with your landlord or agent first. Landlords are frequently glad to have it sorted.
What do you need from me?
Just pictures, your postcode and a contact number. On the day, access to the room.
Can you quote from pictures?
Generally, yes. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed price.
DIY repairs versus a professional job
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is generally the cheaper route.
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
Work for landlords and builders
For anyone letting property in or around Hardwick, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Send pictures for each one and we will come back with a combined price.
Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which matters when someone is living in the home.

Repairs by material
Cast iron
Cast iron baths are so heavy that repairing in place makes obvious sense. Only the enamel surface wears or chips, and that is what we repair.
Acrylic
An acrylic bath is a moulded sheet strengthened from below. They do not rust, but they can crack, scratch or be holed, and a crack only stays repaired if it’s supported underneath.
