How bath repair works in HA1

Whether your bath is steel, cast iron or acrylic, we can repair it. Each material is repaired a little differently: rust is treated on metal baths, while cracks in acrylic are reinforced from underneath. Our technicians work on pressed steel enamel, acrylic and whirlpool & spa baths, and people most frequently call us about rust by the waste and overflow and chips on the rim or sides.

Your technician turns up when we said we would and looks over the damage before anything else. Dust sheets and masking tape go down before any work starts. The work itself takes a few hours, and the room is left clean and tidy.

  1. Dust sheets and masking go down around the bath.
  2. We clean, key and degrease the damage.
  3. We fill it, let it set, then sand it flush.
  4. Colour and gloss are matched to the surrounding surface.
  5. We clear up and give you the curing time, normally until the next day.

What you’ll pay

Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Rather than charging by the hour, we price the whole job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and combining items on one visit brings it down.

Near you in Greenhill

Typical jobs here are in homes near Northwick Park, Royal Oak pub and Harrow High School. Nearby too are Church of St John the Baptist (under half a mile south-east) and Saint Jerome Church of England Bilingual School (under half a mile north-east). There is a railway station in Greenhill itself: Harrow-on-the-Hill station. A little further out are St. Anns (less than half a mile south-west) and Hilfield Castle (4.8 miles north). The countryside around Greenhill includes Masons Field and Northala Fields.

How the damage happens

Rust normally starts where water sits, by the plughole, beneath dripping taps or in an unrepaired chip. Once water reaches the steel or iron, rust spreads under the enamel.

Most people contact us when they notice one of these:

  • Chips caused by builders
  • A failed DIY repair that is discoloured or lifting
  • Impact holes in acrylic
  • A cracked acrylic bath

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Composite and resin

Stone resin and composite baths are heavy and solid. Chips and scratches are filled and matched, in much the same way.

Acrylic

Acrylic baths are moulded sheet reinforced underneath. There’s no rust, but cracks, holes and scratches happen, and cracks need support from behind to stay fixed.

Why repair rather than replace?

If the rest of the bath is in good condition, a repair is almost always the better choice. It costs less, takes less time and causes far less upheaval, and you keep the bath you chose. Where the entire surface is tired, we may suggest re-enamelling instead.

How we price bath repair

Repairs from £95. We price every job individually, from your pictures. The main factors are:

  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • Access to the area
  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • How hard the colour is to match

A few things move the price: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

Send photos for a quote

You can take the pictures on your phone. Just ensure we can see:

  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • Something in shot to show the size
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • A picture taken from further back

Pricing is simple: snap the damage close up and then the entire item, send them to us with your postcode, and you will get a fixed quote back. There is no charge for the quote and no obligation.

Honest limits

Before booking, it’s worth knowing the limits:

  • A bath that moves underfoot, until its support is fixed
  • Acrylic cracks with no access behind them
  • Metal that has corroded all the way through

HA1: your questions answered

Will it make a mess?

No. The work area is masked and covered, and we leave the room clean.

Will the repair show?

We aim for a repair you cannot easily find. The rest of the bath’s condition makes a difference.

Is it safe with children and pets around?

Yes, as long as they stay out of the room we are working in. We’ll tell you when the room can be used again.

Are you accredited?

Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.

Do you charge for travel?

Travel is included in the price, and we charge the same wherever you are.

I tried a repair kit. Can you fix it?

Yes. We take out the old repair and do it properly. Tell us about it when you send pictures.

Is repairing better than replacing?

In most cases, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. If it isn’t worth repairing, we will tell you.
