Bath Repair in Harpole
Damaged bath in Harpole? We repair it in place, match it on site and guarantee the work for a year.
- Repairs from £95
- Deep scratches in acrylic
- Chips along the edge of the bath
How the visit works
There is not much you need to do on the day. Let us in and show us the room, and we will take it from there. Most visits take two to three hours for most chips, including clearing up.
- 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.
- Finish coats go on, then the repair is polished to blend in.
- Once it has cured, typically by the next day, the bath is ready to use.
How to prepare
- Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
- Clear the area around the damage
- Tell us about parking, stairs or access

How we handle bath repair in Harpole
A repair fixes just the damaged area and blends it into the rest of the bath, which costs far less than replacing a fitted bath and the tiles around it. Most baths can be used again the following day. Our technicians work on cast iron enamel, roll-top & freestanding and acrylic, and common reasons people get in touch are a hole punched through by something heavy and hairline or through cracks in acrylic.
Every repair comes with a one-year guarantee, wherever you are in Northamptonshire.

Repairing versus replacing in Harpole
When the bath is otherwise sound, repairing beats replacing. It’s quicker, cheaper and far less disruptive, and the bathroom stays as it is. Where the entire surface is tired, we may suggest re-enamelling instead. Our bath repair starts from £95. Rather than charging by the hour, we price the whole job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and combining items on one visit brings it down.
Why us?

Signs you need bath repair in Harpole
Many chips happen while the bathroom is being fitted. Tools, tiles and fittings get dropped into the bath, and the damage isn’t always spotted until later. We repair snagging damage like this regularly.
These are the problems we are asked about most:
- Damage done while the bathroom was being fitted
- Damage beneath the taps
- Impact holes in acrylic
- Rust spots around the plughole
Questions to ask before you book
- Whether there are any call-out or travel charges
- What protection goes down before work starts
- The length of the guarantee and what it covers
- What prep work is covered
What a repair cannot fix
A few problems are outside what a surface repair can do:
- Cracks in acrylic we can’t reach from underneath
- Wear across the entire surface, which needs re-enamelling
- A bath that flexes because its feet or cradle have failed (that needs fixing first)
If in doubt, send photos and we’ll say what we think.

Work for landlords and builders
We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Harpole as well as householders. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it normally costs far less than a refit.
We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Send the address, pictures and access details and we’ll handle the rest.
What your bath is made of matters
Pressed steel
Under the enamel of a steel bath is thin metal. Once a chip exposes it, rust follows quickly, so the metal is treated and sealed before 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.
DIY repairs versus a professional job
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is usually cheaper.
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, and the work is guaranteed.

Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £95. You will not pay by the hour. The price depends on:
- The type of damage
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- The material
- How easy the damage is to reach
We charge the same wherever you are, so there’s no premium for Harpole. The job itself decides the price: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.
Quotes from your photos
Most quotes are done from photos alone. To make it quick:
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- The material, if you know it
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- A wider photo showing the entire bath
We price from photos so you don’t have to wait in for a survey. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through, and you will get a fixed figure back.
