Repairing versus replacing in Hernhill
When the bath is otherwise sound, repairing beats replacing. It’s quicker, cheaper and far less disruptive, and the bathroom stays as it is. Where the whole surface is tired, we may suggest re-enamelling instead. Prices start from £95. A repair is priced on what needs doing, not where you live. The full price is agreed before booking, with nothing added on the day.
What you get with us
- Generally one visit, start to finish
- No extra charge for your area
- CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited
- One-year guarantee on every repair

Bath repair in Hernhill without replacing anything
Bath repair is our most common job. A chip by the taps, a crack in the base and a rust spot by the plughole are all repaired in place, normally in one visit. We regularly repair roll-top & freestanding, cast iron enamel and acrylic, and people most frequently call us about cracks in an acrylic bath and damage beneath the taps.
You get a one-year guarantee, the same in Hernhill as everywhere else we work.

Prices and what affects them
Repairs from £95. You will not pay by the hour. The price is based on:
- The type of damage
- How hard the colour is to match
- How many items we do on one visit
- The material
We charge the same wherever you are, with no extra for Hernhill. What changes the price is the job itself: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.
Send pictures for a quote
The better the photos, the more accurate the price. Here’s what we find most useful:
- One picture of the whole bath
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- Details of any past repairs
- What it’s made of, if you know
For a price in Hernhill, pictures are the quickest way: one close up, one from further back, plus your postcode. We reply with a fixed quote and our next available dates.
Honest limits
Not everything can be repaired, and we’ll tell you before we start. Repairs won’t solve:
- Leaking fittings, which need a plumber
- A steel bath rusted through
- A whole bath that is dull or worn, where a full re-enamel is the better fix
Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly before you book.

Can I fix it myself?
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully and work on a clean, dry surface, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.
For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.
Landlords, agents and businesses in Hernhill
Rental properties take more wear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.
For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover, saving last-minute replacements. We can visit several plots in one trip to keep costs down.

The most common problems we’re called about are:
- Chips on the rim or sides
- Deep scratches in acrylic
- Snagging damage from a refit
- A chip where the taps sit

How the visit works
On the day itself, there is little for you to do. Let us in and show us the room, and we’ll get on with it. The job generally runs to a few hours, depending on the damage.
- First, we check the damage against your photos and agree the plan.
- Loose enamel, rust and dirt are removed so the repair can bond.
- The damage is filled in layers and shaped to the curve of the bath.
- We tint the finish by hand to match the bath.
- The repair is polished to the same gloss as the bath and left to cure.
Before we arrive
- Keep a parking space free if you can
- Let us know which floor the room is on
- Clear the area around the damage
How to get a price
Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us pictures through the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the whole bath, we can price the job the same day in most cases.

Looking after it afterwards
How the surface is treated afterwards matters. Here’s what we suggest:
- Store metal items away from the bath
- Protect the bath with a towel when doing jobs nearby
- Clean with warm water and a mild detergent
- Avoid scourers, wire wool and gritty cream cleaners
Use gentle, non-abrasive cleaners and try not to drop heavy bottles on the repair. Get any new chip seen to quickly, before rust sets in.
Until we visit, a strip of waterproof tape over the damage helps, to keep water out. Remove it before the repair.
