Common problems we fix in Hartwood
A bath gets knocked about more than you’d think: bottles, shower heads and razors are dropped every day, and fittings press hard against the enamel. Sooner or later, most baths pick up a chip.
Contact us if you’ve noticed any of these:
- Rusty patches near the plughole
- Cracks in an acrylic bath
- Scratches you can feel with a fingernail
- Chips along the edge of the bath

Bath repair at your home in Hartwood
It pays to repair bath damage while it’s small. On steel and cast iron, exposed metal starts to rust, and on acrylic, a crack keeps spreading while the bath flexes. A repair stops both. If you’re dealing with a cracked acrylic bath and a kit repair that didn’t last, we can typically put it right, on whirlpool & spa baths, roll-top & freestanding and pressed steel enamel alike.
Every job is backed for twelve months. We return to put right any problem with the work.

Repairs by material
Cast iron
Cast iron baths are so heavy that repairing in place makes obvious sense. The enamel is the part that wears or chips, and that’s what we repair.
Composite and resin
Composite baths are dense and solid, and often freestanding. Chips and scratches are filled and matched, in much the same way.
When we’d advise against a repair
Before booking, it’s worth knowing the limits:
- Acrylic cracks with no access behind them
- A bath worn all over, where resurfacing makes more sense
- A bath that flexes because its feet or cradle have failed (that needs fixing first)
Not sure? Send pictures and we’ll give you a straight answer.

Prices and what affects them
Repairs from £95. We charge the same across the UK, including Hartwood. The price reflects:
- The material
- How much damage there is
- The type of damage
- How many items we do on one visit
Instead of hourly rates, we price the whole job up front. Damage, material and access decide it.
Send photos for a quote
Good pictures mean an accurate price. Here’s what helps:
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- A picture taken from further back
A quote takes minutes to ask for: photograph the damage, then the whole bath, include your postcode and send them over. You’ll get a fixed quote, not an estimate.
DIY repairs versus a professional job
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, then guarantee it for a year.
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.

Repairing versus replacing in Hartwood
When the bath is otherwise sound, repairing beats replacing. It costs less, takes less time and causes far less upheaval, and the bathroom stays as it is. Where the whole surface is tired, we may suggest re-enamelling instead. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. The price depends on how much damage there is and what kind, what it’s made of and how many items we do on one visit. You get a fixed price from your photos, so you know the cost before booking.
What you get with us
- No extra charge for your area
- We come to you, anywhere in the UK
- Straight answers about what a repair can do
- Colours mixed by hand to suit your surface

Looking after it afterwards
Nothing complicated is needed, just a few sensible habits:
- Avoid scourers, wire wool and gritty cream cleaners
- Make sure an acrylic bath is firm underfoot
- Store metal items away from the bath
- A dripping tap stains enamel, so fix it early
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.
Rust spreads under enamel faster than most people expect. A chip the size of a fingernail can become a much larger patch if it’s left for months, so early repair keeps the cost down.
Hartwood questions
Can you repair a chip on a coloured bath?
Yes, coloured baths are no problem. We tint the finish to your bath on site.
What information do you need?
Just photos, your postcode and a contact number. On the day, access to the room.
Can you redo an old repair?
Regularly. We strip it out, deal with any rust and repair it again.
When can you do it?
It depends on the time of year and where you are. We will offer you dates when we send your quote.
Can you price it without visiting?
Normally, yes. Clear pictures let us give you a fixed price without visiting.
Do I need to be at home?
Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time we agree with you.
What if the damage is worse than the pictures show?
The price is fixed for what the pictures show. If there is more, we will tell you before starting.
Do you work for landlords and businesses?
Yes, frequently. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.
How it works
It’s a tidy, low-fuss visit. We agree the arrival time in advance, protect the area, then carry out the work, which normally takes a few hours, depending on the damage. If anything looks different from your photos, we will talk to you before going ahead.
- First, the area is cleaned and any loose enamel or rust is removed.
- 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 build up the finish and polish it into the surrounding enamel.
- The repair is left to cure, and most baths can be used the next day.
Before we arrive
- Let us know about parking or access
- Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
Ask for a price
There’s no need for us to visit first. Nearly every job can be priced from pictures: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we’ll come back to you with a fixed figure.
