Bath repair at your home in Hare Hatch
Whatever has happened to the bath, we aim for the same result: a smooth, solid repair that blends in. Proper preparation, careful filling and shaping, then colour and gloss matching so it sits flush with the rest of the bath. We regularly repair pressed steel enamel, whirlpool & spa baths and roll-top & freestanding, and common reasons people get in touch are scuffs and scratches in the surface and a chipped rim or side.
You’re covered for a year from the day of the repair. If anything is not right, ring us and we will come back.

The process
Once we’re through the door, we keep the work contained to the one room. We mask off everything nearby, the work takes a few hours, and we finish with a tidy-up and a look at the finished work together.
- We clean the area and remove any loose enamel or rust.
- We fill the damage and sand it flush with the surrounding surface.
- We tint the finish on the day to suit your bath’s shade of white or colour.
- We build up the finish and polish it into the surrounding enamel.
- We leave it to cure; you can typically use the bath the following day.
Preparing for the visit
- Keep a parking space free if you can
- Have a window or extractor fan available
- Let us know about parking or access

Materials and what they mean for the repair
Composite and resin
Composite baths are dense and solid. Chips and scratches can be filled and colour matched, in much the same way.
Pressed steel
Steel baths and trays have a thin metal body under the enamel. Exposed steel rusts quickly, so we treat and seal the metal before filling.
Should I try a DIY kit first?
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
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.

What else we do in Hare Hatch
Hare Hatch: your questions answered
What do you need from me?
Just photos, your postcode and a contact number. On the day, we only need access to the room.
Will the repair last?
It should, as long as the bath is firm and the area was prepared well. It carries our one-year guarantee.
What happens after I send photos?
You get a fixed quote and available dates. If we need another angle, we’ll ask.
Do you cover Hare Hatch?
We do. Repair technicians travel to Hare Hatch from across the region, and the price is the same as everywhere else.
Will the price change on the day?
Your quote covers the damage in the photos. Anything extra is discussed before we begin.
Can you fix rust around the plughole?
Yes, very frequently. The rust is cut back to clean metal and sealed before we fill and finish it.
Do I need to be at home?
Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. You don’t need to watch us work.
Can you repair several things at once?
Yes, and it’s often cheaper. Just add the extra items to your pictures and we’ll quote them together.
What we’re called out for in Hare Hatch
The usual cause is something heavy dropped into the bath, and a lot happen during bathroom refits. Acrylic baths crack for a different reason: poor support underneath, so the bath flexes when it’s full.
People typically call us when they notice one of these:
- Rust spots around the plughole
- Chips on the rim or sides
- A chip where the taps sit
- Deep scratches in acrylic
Questions to ask before booking
- How to care for the finish
- How long it needs to cure
- Who turns up on the day
- Whether the colour is mixed to match
When we’d advise against a repair
Before you book, it’s worth knowing the limits too:
- Cracks in acrylic we can’t reach from underneath
- Flexing caused by a failed cradle or loose feet
- A steel bath rusted through
If in doubt, send photos and we’ll say what we think before booking.
What we work on
- Cast iron enamel
- Whirlpool & spa baths
- Pressed steel enamel
- Roll-top & freestanding
- Acrylic
Aftercare tips
Simple care helps the repair last. Our advice:
- Use a soft cloth and washing-up liquid for everyday cleaning
- A dripping tap stains enamel, so fix it early
- Put a towel in the bath if you’re working above it
- Check that an acrylic bath does not move when you stand in it
For the first few days, keep heavy bottles off the repaired spot. After that, clean it as you would the rest of the bath.
A small chip is a quick job. Left alone, they stain and can rust, so early repair saves time and money.
