How we handle bath repair in Harlesden
Most of our bath repairs take a few hours, and the bath is back in use the following day. You won’t need a plumber or tiler, because the bath does not move. If you’re dealing with rusty patches near the plughole and snagging damage from a refit, we can normally put it right.

How it works
Arrival times are agreed in advance. Once we’re there, the work takes two to three hours for most chips. The room is left tidy and you will know when it can be used.
- We start by looking at the damage and confirming the plan with you.
- Loose enamel, rust and dirt are removed so the repair can bond.
- We build up the filler in layers, shaping it to the bath.
- We tint the finish by hand to match the bath.
- The repair is polished to the same gloss as the bath and left to cure.
Getting ready for the visit
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
- Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
- Have a window or extractor fan available

Advice
Materials and what they mean for the repair
Composite and resin
Stone resin and composite baths are heavy and solid, and often freestanding. Chips and scratches are filled and matched, just like other baths.
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’s the part we put right.
Repair or replace in Harlesden?
Cast iron baths in particular are worth repairing: getting one out, particularly from an upstairs bathroom, is a big job, and replacing like for like is not cheap. Repairing it leaves it where it is. Prices start from £95. A repair typically costs much less than people expect, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

When to call us in Harlesden
A bath gets knocked about more than you’d think: bottles, shower heads and razors are dropped every day, and taps and wastes are tightened against the surface. Sooner or later, most baths pick up a chip.
These are the problems we are asked about most:
- Snagging damage from a refit
- Chips on the rim or sides
- Hairline or through cracks in acrylic
- A failed DIY repair that is discoloured or lifting
What to look for in a quote
- How your room will be protected
- Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT
- Who will actually do the work
- What prep work is covered
Aftercare tips
Much of the damage we repair could have been avoided. These habits help:
- Have new chips seen to early
- Rinse it down after each bath
- Get a dripping tap fixed promptly
- Cover the bath during DIY or decorating
In the first few days, avoid putting weight or bottles on the repair. After that, clean it as you would the rest of the bath without abrasive products.
A chip on a metal bath shouldn’t be left. Once water reaches the metal, rust begins, turning a quick repair into a bigger one.
Landlords, agents and businesses in Harlesden
We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, putting right damage done during fitting. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.
Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.

Questions from Harlesden
Do you come to Harlesden?
Yes. We work across the UK and come to Harlesden and the rest of Greater London. Send photos and we will quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
How do I get a price for bath repair in Harlesden?
Prices start from £95. Because every job differs, we price from photos. You will get a fixed figure before booking.
Can pets and children be at home?
Please keep children and pets out of the room during the visit and until it has cured. The rest of the house is unaffected.
How long does the repair take to cure?
Generally the next day. We confirm the time before we leave.
Is there any odour?
There can be some smell while we work, so we ventilate the room. It clears as the materials cure.
Something went through my bath. Can it be fixed?
Usually. Send us a picture of the hole and one from under the bath if you can.
When can you do it?
We will give you dates with your quote. If it’s urgent, say so and we will do what we can.
Can you repair a chip on a coloured bath?
Yes. We mix the colour on the day to match, including pastel and older colours.
Can I fix it myself?
A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.
If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.
What a repair cannot fix
To be straight with you, some problems need a different fix:
- A bath that flexes because its feet or cradle have failed (that needs fixing first)
- Rust that has eaten right through a steel bath
- A bath worn all over, where resurfacing makes more sense
Not sure? Send pictures and we’ll give you a straight answer.
