About our bath repair in Little Harrowden
A repair fixes just the damaged area and blends it into the rest of the bath, which costs far less than replacing a fitted bath and the tiles around it. Most baths can be used again the following day. Typical jobs include snagging damage from a refit and a hole punched through by something heavy, in whirlpool & spa baths, cast iron enamel and roll-top & freestanding.
Peace of mind is built in: each job carries a one-year guarantee, and we explain what it covers before you book.

When we’d advise against a repair
To be straight with you, there are a few things a repair won’t fix:
- Cracks in acrylic we can’t reach from underneath
- A bath that flexes because its feet or cradle have failed (that needs fixing first)
- Leaks from the waste or overflow fittings (a plumber’s job)
Not sure? Send pictures and we will give you a straight answer before booking.

When to call us in Little Harrowden
Damage during fitting is very common. Tradespeople drop tools and tiles into the bath, and the damage is not always spotted until later. We repair snagging damage like this regularly.
People typically call us when they notice one of these:
- A chipped rim or side
- A failed DIY repair that is discoloured or lifting
- Rusty patches near the plughole
- Chips under the taps

Work for landlords and builders
We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Little Harrowden as well as householders. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it generally costs far less than a refit.
Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which matters when someone is living in the home.
How the visit works
On the day, the technician arrives at the agreed time, protects the room with dust sheets and masking and gets started. Expect it to take two to three hours for most chips. We tidy up before we leave and let you know when you can use it again.
- 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 tint the finish on the day to suit your bath’s shade of white or colour.
- Finish coats go on, then the repair is polished to blend in.
- The repair is left to cure, and most baths can be used the day after.
Before we arrive
- Ensure the room can be ventilated
- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat

Keeping it looking good
Once the work has cured, treat it gently:
- Avoid scourers, wire wool and gritty cream cleaners
- Cover the bath during DIY or decorating
- Clean with warm water and a mild detergent
- A dripping tap stains enamel, so fix it early
Clean with mild, non-abrasive cleaners and avoid dropping heavy items on the repaired area. Deal with new chips early, before rust sets in.
Avoid standing in a cracked acrylic bath until it’s fixed. Each time it flexes, the crack grows, and it can start to leak underneath.
Repairs by material
Acrylic
An acrylic bath is a moulded sheet strengthened from below. There is no rust, but cracks, holes and scratches happen, and cracks need support from behind to stay fixed.
Pressed steel
Under the enamel of a steel bath is thin metal. Exposed steel rusts quickly, so the metal is treated and sealed before the repair.
What affects the price in Little Harrowden
Repairs from £95. You’ll know the full cost before you book. We look at:
- What kind of damage it is
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- Whether we combine several jobs
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
There are no surprise extras on the day. The price we quote from your pictures is the price you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.
How to get a fixed price
Before you send pictures, a few simple things make all the difference:
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- Where you are, by postcode
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- Natural light rather than flash
A quote takes minutes to ask for: take one close-up and one wider shot of the bath, add your postcode and send them to us. You’ll get a fixed price, not an estimate.
Little Harrowden questions
Can landlords book you?
Yes, often. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.
Can you price it without visiting?
Normally, yes. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed quote.
What areas do you cover?
We work UK-wide, so Little Harrowden is covered. Our prices are the same everywhere.
Do the materials smell?
There may be a mild smell during the work.
Do I have to be there?
Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time we agree with you.
Can rust on a bath be repaired?
Yes, very often. The rust is cut back to clean metal and sealed before we fill and finish it.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
Usually, when the rest is in good condition. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. If replacing would be better, we’ll say so.
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
Yes, regularly. It can add a little time, which we include in the quote.
Should I try a DIY kit first?
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.
