The process
When we visit, the technician arrives at the agreed time, protects the room with dust sheets and masking and gets started. The job normally takes a few hours, depending on the damage. We clean up when we’re done and tell you when it’s ready to use.
- We start by cleaning the damage and taking out loose enamel and rust.
- The chip or crack is filled, then sanded level with the bath.
- We mix the colour on the day to match your bath’s exact shade.
- We apply the finish coats and polish the repair so it blends in.
- Once it has cured, usually by the day after, the bath is ready to use.
Getting ready for the visit
- Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
- Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
- Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
How to get a price

Advice
How to care for the repair
Looking after the surface is easy:
- Avoid scourers, wire wool and gritty cream cleaners
- Use a soft cloth and washing-up liquid for everyday cleaning
- Put a towel in the bath if you’re working above it
- Keep metal cans and razors off the surface
Treat the repaired area like the rest of the bath: warm water, washing-up liquid and a soft cloth. Keep scouring pads and gritty cleaners away from it.
Until we visit, a strip of waterproof tape over the damage helps, to keep water out. Take it off before we arrive.
Harrington questions
What happens if you find more damage?
It’s rare, but if it happens we talk to you first. The price only changes if you agree.
Can you repair something that is been repaired before?
In most cases. We remove the old repair before doing a new one.
When can you do it?
We will give you dates with your quote. If it’s urgent, say so and we’ll do what we can.
Can you redo an old repair?
Regularly. We strip it out, deal with any rust and repair it again.
Can you repair a hole in a bath?
Typically, yes, if we can reach behind it. The hole is backed, filled and refinished to match.
Is a bath repair durable?
A properly prepared repair should last a long time, and it’s guaranteed for a year. Gentle cleaning helps.
Do I need to be at home?
Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time that suits you.
Is the work guaranteed?
Yes, for a year. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.

Repair or replace in Harrington?
If the rest of the bath is in good condition, a repair is almost always the better choice. It’s quicker, cheaper and far less disruptive, and you keep the bath you chose. Where the whole surface is tired, we may suggest re-enamelling instead. Our bath repair starts from £95. A repair usually costs much less than people expect, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Send photos and we’ll give you the exact figure.
What you get with us
- A year’s guarantee on all work

Common problems we fix in Harrington
Acrylic baths that crack nearly always have a support problem. Loose legs, no proper cradle or a floor that gives let the base flex until it cracks.

What bath repair costs
Repairs from £95. We charge the same across the UK, including Harrington. The price reflects:
- What kind of damage it is
- Access to the area
- The colour and finish to match
- Doing more than one item at once
Every job is a little different, so each one is priced on its own. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all play a part, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.
Getting a price from photos
The better the photos, the more accurate the price. Here’s what helps:
- A wider photo showing the entire bath
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
You do not need a survey visit. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote.
DIY kit or professional repair?
If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely and work on a clean, dry surface, and give it the full curing time. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it won’t stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.
