Signs you need bath repair in Hareby

The most common problems we are called about are:
- Scuffs and scratches in the surface
- Chips along the edge of the bath
- Cracks in an acrylic bath
- Snagging damage from a refit

- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- Whether we combine several jobs
Our prices are the same across the UK, so there’s no premium for Hareby. What changes the price is the job itself: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

I’m a tenant. Can you help?
Yes. Ask your landlord first, and we can send them the quote if that helps.
How quickly can you book me in?
It depends on the time of year and where you are. Send pictures with your postcode and we will reply with the earliest dates.
Do you come to Hareby?

What happens after I send pictures?
We look at the photos and reply with a fixed price and some dates. If anything’s unclear, we will ask for another photo.
Can pets and children be at home?
Just keep them out of the work area. We will tell you when the room can be used again.
Can you repair a failed DIY repair?
Yes. We take out the old repair and do it properly. Tell us about it when you send photos.
Is a cracked acrylic bath repairable?
Usually, yes, as long as we can get to the back of the crack to support it. Check under the bath panel, or send us a picture.
Is a bath repair permanent?
Done properly, a repair lasts for years, and ours come with a one-year guarantee. Gentle cleaning helps.
Materials and what they mean for the repair
Cast iron
Cast iron baths are thick and very strong, finished with fired enamel. A chip down to the iron can rust, but the bath itself lasts for generations, which makes it well worth repairing.
Pressed steel
Steel baths and trays have a thin metal body under the enamel. Exposed steel rusts quickly, so the metal is treated and sealed before the repair.

What else we do in Hareby
DIY kit or professional repair?
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is generally the cheaper route.
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it will not stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.
What a repair cannot fix
A repair is not right for every job, including:
- A steel bath rusted through
- Acrylic cracks with no access behind them
- Flexing caused by a failed cradle or loose feet

Materials we work on in Hareby
- Roll-top & freestanding
- Whirlpool & spa baths
- Pressed steel enamel
- Acrylic
- Cast iron enamel
Keeping it looking good
Aftercare is simple:
- Make sure an acrylic bath is firm underfoot
- Don’t leave a fresh chip for long
- Keep abrasive pads and gritty cleaners away from the bath
- Use a soft cloth and washing-up liquid for everyday cleaning
Keep metal objects like razors and cans off the surface, because they can mark the enamel. And fix dripping taps promptly.
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.
For landlords and businesses
We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams in Lincolnshire and across the UK. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which is easier on the people living there.
Hospitality businesses need rooms back in use quickly, so we keep visits short and tidy. We’ll fit around changeovers where we can.
How the visit works
Arrival times are agreed in advance, so you know when to expect us. Once we’re there, the work takes two to three hours for most chips for most jobs. The room is left tidy and ready to use once it has cured.
- Dust sheets and masking go down around the bath.
- We clean, key and degrease the damage, and any rust is treated.
- Filler goes in and is sanded flush once it has set.
- We match both the colour and the shine.
- We tidy up and tell you when the bath can be used, normally the following day.
Preparing for the visit
- Keep a parking space free if you can
- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
