Questions from Harlington
Is a bath repair permanent?
It should, as long as the bath is firm and the area was prepared well. It’s covered by our one-year guarantee.
How do I get a price for bath repair in Harlington?
Repairs from £95. The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from pictures. You will get a fixed figure before booking.
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
Keep pets and children away from the work area on the day.
What about rust by the waste?
Yes, very frequently. The rust is cut back to clean metal and sealed before we fill and finish it.
How do I book?
Just pictures, your postcode and a contact number. On the day, access to the room.
Which areas do you work in?
We cover the whole UK, including Harlington and the rest of Doncaster. Just include your postcode and we’ll confirm dates.
Can you match an avocado or pink bath?
Yes, we match coloured baths too. We tint the finish to your bath on site.
Is my repair covered?
Yes, for a year. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.
What affects the price in Harlington
Repairs from £95. Prices are worked out job by job. The main factors are:
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- How hard the colour is to match
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- What kind of damage it is
Set against the cost of replacement, repairing normally costs far less, because there’s no removal, plumbing or making good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.
How to get a fixed price
The better the pictures, the more accurate the price. Here’s what we find most useful:
- A wider photo showing the whole bath
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- The material, if you know it
Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us photos through the quote form. With one close-up and one wider picture, we can give you a fixed quote the same day in most cases.
How it works
We turn up when we said we would and looks over the damage before anything else. The floor and nearby surfaces are covered before any work starts. The work itself takes a few hours, depending on the damage, and the room is left clean and tidy.
- We start by looking at the damage and confirming the plan with you.
- Any rust and loose material comes out, and the area is degreased.
- We build up the filler in layers, shaping it to the bath.
- We tint the finish by hand to match the bath.
- Finally, it’s polished to match the shine and left to cure.
Getting ready for the visit
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
- Let the surface dry out before the visit
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
How to get a price
Getting a price is easy: take a close-up of the damage and a picture from further back, send them to us with your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price. There is no charge for the quote and you’re under no obligation.

DIY kit or professional repair?
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it does not stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.
Looking after it afterwards
Looking after the surface is easy, and it makes a real difference:
- Have new chips seen to early
- Rinse the bath after use, especially in hard water areas
- Ensure an acrylic bath is firm underfoot
- Protect the bath with a towel when doing jobs nearby
Care for the repair the same way as the bath: warm water, washing-up liquid and a soft cloth. Avoid scourers and gritty cream cleaners.
Rust spreads under enamel faster than most people expect. Left for months, a small chip can grow into a large rust patch, so it pays to deal with it early.
When a repair isn’t the answer
We’d rather lose a job than do one that won’t last, so these are the limits:
- Leaks from the waste or overflow fittings (a plumber’s job)
- A bath that flexes because its feet or cradle have failed (that needs fixing first)
- Cracks in parts of an acrylic bath we cannot get to from below
If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think.

Our prices are the same across the UK, so there’s no premium for Harlington. What changes the price is the job itself: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

Materials and what they mean for the repair
Acrylic
Acrylic baths are moulded sheet reinforced underneath. They don’t rust, but they can crack, scratch or be holed, and cracks need support from behind to stay fixed.
Cast iron
Cast iron is heavy and rigid, finished with fired enamel. Chips can rust if left, but the body of the bath lasts a very long time, so it’s always worth repairing.
