Bath repair in Harrow

DIY repairs versus a professional job

If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, ensure the area is clean and completely dry, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.

It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.

How we handle bath repair in Harrow

Most of our bath repairs take a few hours, and the bath is back in use the next day. You will not need a plumber or tiler, because nothing is disconnected. We’re often asked to fix a chipped rim or side and chips caused by builders, in cast iron enamel, pressed steel enamel and whirlpool & spa baths.

Every job is backed for twelve months in Harrow and everywhere else. If something goes wrong with the work, we come back.

Repairs by material

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.

Composite and resin

Composite baths are dense and solid. Chips and scratches can be filled and colour matched, in much the same way.

Looking after it afterwards

Aftercare is simple:

  • Rinse it down after each bath
  • Clean with warm water and a mild detergent
  • Check that an acrylic bath does not move when you stand in it
  • Avoid scourers, wire wool and gritty cream cleaners

Treat the repaired area like the rest of the bath: a soft cloth and washing-up liquid is all it needs. Avoid scourers and gritty cream cleaners.

Stop using the bath if a crack lets water through until it’s repaired. Leaks under a bath can damage floors and ceilings.

What affects the price in Harrow

Repairs from £95. There’s no charge for travel to Harrow. The price depends on:

  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • The material
  • Doing more than one item at once
  • What kind of damage it is

Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

Send photos for a quote

When you take your pictures, a few simple things make all the difference:

  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • Something in shot to show the size
  • A photo taken from further back
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection

Email us pictures of the damage and one of the entire item, and tell us you’re in Harrow, and we will reply with a fixed quote.

Work for landlords and builders

Rental properties take more wear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.

For anyone letting property in or around Harrow, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Just send pictures for each address and we will come back with a combined price.

Common questions in Harrow

Can you repair something that’s been repaired before?

Yes, regularly. It can add a little time, which we include in the quote.

Is a holed acrylic bath repairable?

In most cases. Photos of the hole and the underside help us check.

When can I have a bath again?

Typically the following day. We’ll tell you the exact curing time when we finish.

Do I have to be there?

Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. You don’t need to watch us work.

What areas do you cover?

We cover the entire UK, including Harrow and the rest of Greater London. Just include your postcode and we will offer you dates.

Will the price change on the day?

It’s rare, but if it happens we talk to you first. You decide whether to go ahead.

Can pets and children be at home?

We ask you to keep children and pets out of the room while we work. The rest of the house is unaffected.

Can you match an avocado or pink bath?

Yes. The colour is mixed on site to suit your bath, including older coloured suites.

Repairing versus replacing in Harrow

A repair makes sense whenever the damage is localised. It’s a fraction of the cost of a new bath and fitting, it takes one visit, and nothing else in the room changes. Prices start from £95. We charge the same wherever you are, with no extra for Harrow. What changes the price is the job itself: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

What you get with us

  • CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited
  • Colour-matched on site
  • No need to remove anything
  • Usually one visit, start to finish

See our full price list and guide to resurfacing and replacement costs.

How it works

We turn up at the time we agreed with you, introduces themselves and checks the damage against your photos first. Dust sheets and masking tape go down before we open a single tin. Most visits take a few hours, depending on the damage, and the room is left clean and tidy.

  1. We clean the area and remove any loose enamel or rust.
  2. We fill the damage and sand it flush with the surrounding surface.
  3. We tint the finish on the day to suit your bath’s shade of white or colour.
  4. We build up the finish and polish it into the surrounding enamel.
  5. The repair is left to cure, and most baths can be used the following day.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access
  • Ensure the area is dry

Ask for a price

Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us photos through the quote form. With one close-up and one wider picture, we can price the job.

Common problems we fix in Harrow

Rust tends to begin where water collects, by the plughole, beneath dripping taps or in an unrepaired chip. Once water reaches the steel or iron, rust spreads under the enamel.

Clients usually contact us about:

  • A kit repair that didn’t last
  • Rust spots around the plughole
  • Holes from dropped items
  • Chips caused by builders

Before booking anyone

  • Whether a trained technician does the job
  • Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price
  • How changes to the job are handled
  • What aftercare is recommended
