Bath repair in Hartshill without replacing anything
Small damage on a bath is worth repairing early. On steel and cast iron, exposed metal starts to rust, while cracks in acrylic grow each time the bath moves. A repair stops both. Common call-outs are for deep scratches in acrylic and a kit repair that didn’t last, across cast iron enamel, pressed steel enamel and whirlpool & spa baths.
Every job is backed for twelve months, and the guarantee is the same wherever you live. If something goes wrong with the work, we come back.

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 we treat and seal the metal before filling.
Cast iron
Cast iron baths are so heavy that repairing in place makes obvious sense. Only the enamel surface wears or chips, and that is what we repair.
Common problems we fix in Hartshill
Baths take more knocks than people expect: bottles, shower heads and razors are dropped every day, and taps and wastes are tightened against the surface. Over time, chips and rust spots are almost inevitable.
If you can see any of these, send us a picture:
- Chips caused by builders
- Rust by the waste and overflow
- Chips under the taps
- Chips along the edge of the bath

How the visit works
Here’s how a visit generally runs: we arrive on time, protect everything around the work area, carry out the work and clear up. Plan for a few hours, depending on the damage. Before leaving, we tell you how long to leave it and how to care for it.
- Dust sheets and masking go down around the bath.
- The damaged area is cleaned, keyed and degreased, and any rust is treated.
- Filler goes in and is sanded flush once it has set.
- We match both the colour and the shine.
- We tidy up and tell you when the bath can be used, typically the following day.
How to prepare
- Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
- Clear the area around the damage

Related advice
Landlord and trade work in Hartshill
Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.
For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover. Several plots can be done in one visit to keep costs down.
What affects the price in Hartshill
Repairs from £95. Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we take into account:
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- Unusual colours or finishes
- How many areas need work
- The type of damage
No two jobs are quite the same, so each one is priced on its own. The size and type of damage, the material and access all make a difference, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.
How to get a fixed quote
Before you send photos, these tips help us give you a firm price:
- A picture taken from further back
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
You do not need a survey visit. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we will come back to you with a fixed figure.

Aftercare tips
Good habits make a big difference to how long a repair lasts. Here’s what we suggest:
- Fix dripping taps early to stop staining and limescale
- Get any new chip repaired before it rusts
- Keep metal cans and razors off the surface
- Keep abrasive pads and gritty cleaners away from the bath
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.
Do not leave a chip on a steel or cast iron bath. Water gets to the metal and rust starts, and a rust spot is a bigger repair than a clean chip.
Why repair rather than replace?
Replacing a fitted bath usually means a plumber, lifting out the old bath, re-tiling and a new panel and disposing of the old one. A repair deals only with the damage in a single visit. Prices start from £95. A few things move the price: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Send photos and you’ll get a fixed figure.
