Common problems we fix in Lower Hartlip
Most bath damage comes from something dropped: a shampoo bottle, a shower head, a tile or a tool during a refit. On enamelled baths, any chip down to the metal lets water in, and rust follows.
Look out for these signs:
- Scratches you can feel with a fingernail
- Chips caused by builders
- A failed DIY repair that is discoloured or lifting
- A chip where the taps sit

Bath repair at your home in Lower Hartlip
A typical bath repair is a few hours’ work, and you can normally bathe again the day after. There is no need to book a plumber or tiler, because the bath does not move. Our repair technicians work on roll-top & freestanding, cast iron enamel and pressed steel enamel, and people most frequently call us about scuffs and scratches in the surface and cracks in an acrylic bath.
You’re covered for a year from the day of the repair. If anything isn’t right, ring us and we will sort it.

What affects the price in Lower Hartlip
Prices start from £95. Prices are worked out job by job, from your pictures. The main factors are:
- What the surface is made of
- How hard the colour is to match
- How easy the damage is to reach
- How many items we do on one visit
Every job is a little different, so each one is priced on its own. The size and type of damage, the material and access all play a part, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.
How to get a fixed price
Most quotes are done from pictures alone. To make it quick:
- Where you are, by postcode
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- What it’s made of, if you know
- One picture of the entire bath
We price from photos so you do not have to wait in for a survey. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through, and we’ll come back with a fixed figure.
Why repair rather than replace?
A new bath costs more than the bath itself: taking out the old one, plumbing, tiling, a panel and redecorating. With a repair, it’s one visit and one price. Our bath repair starts from £95. Instead of hourly rates, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access.

It’s a tidy, low-fuss visit. We agree the arrival time in advance, cover and mask the work area, and get on with the job, which normally takes a few hours. If anything looks different from your photos, we’ll talk to you before going ahead.
- Dust sheets and masking go down around the bath.

DIY repairs versus a professional job
For a hairline mark somewhere you will never see, a kit may be enough. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, it’s worth having it done properly.
A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it does not stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.
Landlord and trade work in Lower Hartlip
For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover. We can visit several plots in one trip.
Hospitality businesses need rooms back in use quickly, so we keep visits short and tidy. We’ll fit around changeovers where we can.
How to look after the repair
Nothing complicated is needed, just a few sensible habits:
- A dripping tap stains enamel, so fix it early
- If an acrylic bath flexes, have its feet adjusted
- Put a towel in the bath if you are working above it
- Clean with warm water and a mild detergent
Give the repair the full curing time we recommend before using the bath. After that, gentle cleaning keeps it looking good.
A small chip is a quick job. Leave them and they collect dirt, stain and, on metal baths, rust, so early repair saves time and money.
Materials and what they mean for the repair
Composite and resin
Composite baths are dense and solid, and often freestanding. Chips and scratches can be filled and colour matched, in much the same way.
Cast iron
A cast iron bath is heavy enough that most people never want to move it. The enamel is the part that wears or chips, and that’s what we repair.
