How we handle bath repair in Brackenhall
You don’t need a new bath because of a chip. We fill the damage, shape it to the curve of the bath and refinish it, with the colour mixed on site. Our repair technicians work on cast iron enamel, acrylic and whirlpool & spa baths, and people most frequently call us about damage done while the bathroom was being fitted and a hole punched through by something heavy.
Peace of mind is built in: our one-year guarantee applies to every job, and we explain what it covers before you book.

What affects the price in Brackenhall
Repairs from £95. You’ll know the full cost before booking. We look at:
- How many items we do on one visit
- The colour and finish to match
- The material
- How many areas need work
A few things move the price: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Send photos and you’ll get a fixed figure.
How to get a fixed quote
Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what we need:
- Any details about the material
- A wider photo showing the entire bath
- Something in shot to show the size
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
Upload pictures of the damage and one of the whole item, and tell us you’re in Brackenhall, and we’ll reply with a fixed price.
Common questions in Brackenhall
Is a bath repair durable?
Yes, if it’s prepared properly and the bath is sound. It carries our one-year guarantee.
Can you quote from pictures?
Usually, yes. Clear pictures let us give you a fixed price without visiting.
Is there a guarantee?
Every repair comes with our one-year guarantee. We’ll explain what it covers when we quote.
Will it make a mess?
We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and tidy up before we leave.
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.
What happens after I send photos?
We come back with a fixed quote, normally with dates to choose from. There is no obligation to book.
What information do you need?
Use the quote form or ring 0345 017 0787, and we’ll do the rest.
Is there any odour?
Some materials have a smell while they’re applied, so we ventilate the room. It clears as the materials cure.
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.
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is generally the cheaper route.
Repairs by material
Composite and resin
Stone resin and composite baths are heavy and solid. Chips and scratches can be filled and colour-matched, in much the same way.
Cast iron
Cast iron is heavy and rigid, finished with fired enamel. Chips can rust if left, but the bath itself lasts for generations, so it’s always worth repairing.
Repair or replace in Brackenhall?
For damage in one or two places, a repair is the obvious choice. It’s a fraction of the cost of a new bath and fitting, it’s done in one visit, and nothing else in the room changes. Prices start from £95. Rather than charging by the hour, we price the whole job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access.

What we can’t put right
Before you book, it’s worth knowing the limits:
- A bath that flexes because its feet or cradle have failed (that needs fixing first)
- Water coming from the waste or taps rather than the bath
- Cracks in acrylic we cannot reach from underneath
If in doubt, send photos and we will say what we think before booking.
Surfaces we repair
- Acrylic
- Whirlpool & spa baths
- Cast iron enamel
- Pressed steel enamel
- Roll-top & freestanding
The process
Nothing needs to be moved out of the room. Everything we use comes in the van with us, put protection down and get going once we have agreed what we’re doing. It normally takes a few hours, depending on the damage, and you are welcome to carry on with your day while we work.
- We start by looking at the damage and confirming the plan with you.
- 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.
How to prepare
- Tell us about parking, stairs or access
- Keep a parking space free if you can
- Clear the area around the damage
Getting a price
To get a price, send two or three photos through our quote form or ring us. We’ll say immediately whether it can be repaired.

When to call us in Brackenhall
Rust generally starts where water sits, around the waste, under the taps or in an old chip. Water on bare metal causes rust that creeps under the surrounding enamel.
Signs it’s time to call us include:
- Chips under the taps
- Snagging damage from a refit
- Rusty patches near the plughole
- Chips on the rim or sides
Questions to ask before you book
- Whether the colour is mixed to match
- Whether the price covers travel
- How soon you can use it again
- Who turns up on the day
