How we handle bath repair in Hatton
Most bath damage, from chips and cracks to rust spots and holes, can be repaired with the bath left exactly where it is. Nothing is unplumbed, the tiles are not touched, and the finish is matched to the rest of the bath. If you are dealing with a hole punched through by something heavy and damage done while the bathroom was being fitted, we can usually put it right, on acrylic, whirlpool & spa baths and cast iron enamel alike.
Every repair is covered by a one-year guarantee.

What your bath is made of matters
Cast iron
Cast iron baths are thick and very strong, with a fused enamel surface. A chip down to the iron can rust, but the bath itself lasts for generations, so it’s always worth repairing.
Acrylic
Acrylic feels warm and is light, but it needs firm support underneath. Repairs to cracks are reinforced from the back.
What happens on the day
Nothing needs to be moved out of the room beforehand. Everything we use comes in the van with us, put protection down and start once you’re happy with the plan. Most jobs take two to three hours for most chips, and you can get on with other things while we are there.
- First, the area is cleaned and any loose enamel or rust is removed.
- 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.
- We build up the finish and polish it into the surrounding enamel.
- Once it has cured, typically by the following day, the bath is ready to use.
Before we arrive
- Open a window if you can
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
- Clear the area around the damage
Getting a price
Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: photograph the damage, then the entire bath, include your postcode and send them over. What comes back is a fixed price, not a guess.

Should you replace it?
When the bath is otherwise sound, repairing beats replacing. It’s quicker, cheaper and far less disruptive, and you keep the bath you chose. If the whole surface is worn, re-enamelling may make more sense, and we’ll tell you. Prices start from £95. A repair is priced on what needs doing, not where you live. You’ll see the full price before booking, with nothing added on the day.
Why Hatton clients choose us
- Every repair guaranteed for a year
- CHAS and Constructionline accredited
- Typically one visit, start to finish
- We leave the room as we found it

Your questions about bath repair in Hatton
How do I book?
Photos of the damage, a picture of the whole bath and your postcode. Then we will agree a date.
Do you work for landlords and businesses?
Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as homeowners across Aberdeenshire.
How do I get a price for bath repair in Hatton?
Prices start from £95. Because every job differs, we price from photos. You know the full cost before anything is booked.
How invisible is a bath repair?
On a glossy bath, you will struggle to find it. On older, dull enamel the repair can look glossier than the area around it.
Something went through my bath. Can it be fixed?
Typically, yes, if we can reach behind it. The hole is backed, filled and refinished to match.
Can pets and children be at home?
Just keep them out of the work area. We will let you know when it’s safe to use again.
What happens after I send pictures?
You’ll get a fixed quote back. There’s no obligation to book.
Do you work in Hatton?
Yes. We work across the UK and come to Hatton and the rest of Aberdeenshire. Send us photos for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
Can I fix it myself?
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is usually cheaper.
Keeping it looking good
Good habits make a big difference to how long a repair lasts:
- Store metal items away from the bath
- A dripping tap stains enamel, so fix it early
- Get any new chip repaired before it rusts
- Cover the bath during DIY or decorating
Clean with mild, non-abrasive cleaners and try not to drop heavy bottles on the repair. Deal with new chips early, before rust sets in.
A chip on a metal bath shouldn’t be left. Once water reaches the metal, rust begins, turning a quick repair into a bigger one.
Common problems we fix in Hatton
Acrylic baths that crack nearly always have a support problem. Loose legs, no proper cradle or a floor that gives let the bath move until it cracks.
Send us a photo if you notice any of these:
- Damage beneath the taps
- Chips along the edge of the bath
- Damage done while the bathroom was being fitted
- Scratches you can feel with a fingernail
What your quote should include
- What happens if the damage is worse than the pictures show
- How the colour is matched
- How the room is protected while they work
- Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price
When we would advise against a repair
We’d rather lose a job than do one that won’t last, so these are the limits:
- Cracks in acrylic we cannot 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)
Send us pictures and we will tell you honestly.
