How we handle bath repair in Harecroft
Small damage on a bath is worth repairing early. On steel and cast iron, exposed metal starts to rust, while cracks in acrylic grow each time the bath moves. A repair stops both. If you are dealing with a kit repair that didn’t last and rust by the waste and overflow, we can generally put it right.
Every job is backed for twelve months, and the guarantee is the same wherever you live. We return to put right any problem with the work.

How it works
We work cleanly and quietly, so you can carry on at home. We protect the area first, then the job itself takes a few hours, depending on the damage. Before we leave, we explain the curing time and the aftercare.
- First, we check the damage against your photos and agree the plan.
- Any rust and loose material comes out, and the area is degreased.
- We build up the filler in layers, shaping it to the bath.
- The colour is tinted by hand until it matches.
- Finally, it’s polished to match the shine and left to cure.
Before we arrive
- Keep a parking space free if you can
- Clear the area around the damage
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children

Repair or replace in Harecroft?

A repair skips all of it. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. There are no surprise extras on the day. What we quote from your pictures is what you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.

Do you need bath repair in Harecroft?
The usual cause is something heavy dropped into the bath, and building work is a common culprit. Acrylic baths crack for a different reason: the bath is not properly supported, so it flexes under weight.
Most people contact us when they notice something like this:
- Scratches you can feel with a fingernail
- A chipped rim or side
- Rust spots around the plughole
- Cracks in an acrylic bath

Prices and what affects them
Repairs from £95. Each job gets its own fixed quote. These are the things that affect it:
- What the surface is made of
- How many areas need work
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- How many items we do on one visit
We charge the same wherever you are, with no extra for Harecroft. The job itself decides the price: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

What else we do in Harecroft
Honest limits
Not everything can be repaired, and we’ll tell you before we start. We cannot fix:
- A bath that moves underfoot, until its support is fixed
- Leaks from the waste or overflow fittings (a plumber’s job)
- Wear across the whole surface, which needs re-enamelling
If in doubt, send pictures and we will say what we think.
Surfaces we repair
- Whirlpool & spa baths
- Roll-top & freestanding
- Pressed steel enamel
- Acrylic
- Cast iron enamel
Materials and what they mean for the repair
Pressed steel
Pressed steel is thinner and lighter, with an enamel finish like cast iron. Chips rust quickly on steel, especially around the waste, so early repairs matter.
Acrylic
Acrylic feels warm and is light, but it needs firm support underneath. Cracks are strengthened from behind before the front is finished.
Questions from Harecroft
Will you leave a mess?
We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and we clean up when we’ve finished.
Do you repair coloured baths?
Yes. We mix the colour on the day to match, including pastel and older colours.
How much does bath repair cost in Harecroft?
Repairs from £95. Every job gets a fixed quote based on photos of the damage. Send a close-up and a picture of the entire item with your BD15 postcode.
Is a repair better than a new one?
Typically, when the rest is in good condition. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. We will tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
Yes, though it’s best to check with your landlord first. Landlords are frequently glad to have it sorted before the end of a tenancy.
What happens after I send pictures?
You will get a fixed quote back, normally with dates to choose from. There is no obligation to book.
What information do you need?
A close-up, a wider photo and your postcode. After that, we just agree a date.
I tried a repair kit. Can you fix it?
Yes. We remove the old filler and start again. Tell us about it when you send pictures.
Can I fix it myself?
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. 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.
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.
How to look after the repair
Most damage we see is avoidable. A few tips:
- If an acrylic bath flexes, have its feet adjusted
- Get any new chip repaired before it rusts
- Fix dripping taps early to stop staining and limescale
- Don’t scrub with anything abrasive
In the first few days, avoid putting weight or bottles on the repair. After that, normal gentle cleaning is fine.
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 it pays to deal with it early.
