Bath repair at your home in Haughton Green
Whatever has happened to the bath, we aim for the same result: a repair that’s smooth, sound and hard to spot. Proper preparation, careful filling and shaping, then colour and gloss matching so it sits flush with the rest of the bath. Our repair technicians work on cast iron enamel, whirlpool & spa baths and acrylic, and common reasons people get in touch are a cracked acrylic bath and chips on the rim or sides.
You get a one-year guarantee, the same in Haughton Green as everywhere else we work.

What happens on the day
When we visit, we arrive at the time we’ve agreed, cover the area with dust sheets and masking, and set to work. The job normally takes a few hours, depending on the damage. We tidy up before we leave and let you know when you can use it again.
- We start by cleaning the damage and taking out loose enamel and rust.
- We fill the damage and sand it flush with the surrounding surface.
- The colour is mixed on the spot to match your bath.
- We apply the finish coats and polish the repair so it blends in.
- Once it has cured, normally by the following day, the bath is ready to use.
Before we arrive
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
- Clear the area around the damage
Ask for a price
There is no need for us to visit first. Nearly every job can be priced from photos: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote.

How to look after the repair
Nothing complicated is needed, just a few sensible habits:
- Cover the bath during DIY or decorating
- Don’t leave a fresh chip for long
- Check that an acrylic bath does not move when you stand in it
- Give the bath a quick rinse after use
In the first few days, avoid putting weight or bottles on the repair. After that, normal gentle cleaning is fine without abrasive products.
A chip on a metal bath shouldn’t be left. Water gets to the metal and rust starts, turning a quick repair into a bigger one.
Repair or replace: which is better?
Swapping a damaged bath for a new one normally involves a plumber, lifting out the old bath, making good the tiles and panel and getting rid of the old bath. A repair deals only with the damage in a single visit. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Every job is a little different, so we price each one individually. The size and type of damage, the material and access all make a difference, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

When we’d advise against a repair
In fairness, some problems need a different fix:
- A steel bath rusted through
- Leaking fittings, which need a plumber
- A bath worn all over, where resurfacing makes more sense
Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly.

DIY repairs versus a professional job
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it will not stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.
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 fails, we can still put it right.
FAQs for Haughton Green
Can you fix rust around the plughole?
Yes, very often. We take it back to sound metal, seal it, fill it and match the colour.
Can tenants book a repair?
Yes, but check with your landlord or agent first. Many landlords are happy for a repair to be arranged.
Will it make a mess?
Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and we clean up when we have finished.
Is there a guarantee?
Yes: twelve months. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.
Can you redo an old repair?
Yes, we do this frequently. The old material comes out, any rust is treated, then we repair it properly.
What happens after I send photos?
We check the damage, the material and your postcode, then reply with a quote and the next dates we have.
When can I have a bath again?
Usually the day after. We will tell you the exact curing time when we finish.
Do you repair coloured baths?
Yes, we match coloured baths too. We tint the finish to your bath on site.
Prices and what affects them
Repairs from £95. We give every job a fixed price from pictures. These are the things that affect it:
- What kind of damage it is
- The material and finish
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- Doing more than one item at once
What it costs depends on the type and amount of damage, the material and how many items we do on one visit. You get a fixed price from your photos, so there are no surprises on the day.
Getting a price from pictures
Two or three clear photos are typically enough. It helps if you send:
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- A picture taken from further back
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
For most jobs, photos are all we need to give you a price. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we’ll send back a fixed quote and some dates.

Repairs by material
Pressed steel
Steel baths are lighter than cast iron, but have a similar enamel surface. Chips rust quickly on steel, particularly by the plughole, so early repairs matter.
Acrylic
Acrylic baths are moulded sheet reinforced underneath. They do not rust, but they can crack, scratch or be holed, and a crack only stays repaired if it’s supported underneath.
