Bath repair at your home in Bradwell
Repairing baths is what we do most. A chip by the taps, a crack in the base and a rust spot by the plughole are all repaired in place, generally in a single visit. We work on roll-top & freestanding, pressed steel enamel and cast iron enamel, and people most frequently call us about a failed DIY repair that’s discoloured or lifting and a hole punched through by something heavy.
All our work comes with a one-year guarantee, wherever you are in Derbyshire.

Why repair rather than replace?
Cast iron baths especially are worth keeping: getting one out, particularly from an upstairs bathroom, is a big job, and a like-for-like replacement can be expensive. Repairing it leaves it where it is. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Send photos and you’ll get a fixed figure.

DIY repairs versus a professional job
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.
Do you need bath repair in Bradwell?
Nearly all the chips we see start with something being dropped: bottles, shower heads, tiles and tools. On steel and cast iron baths, any chip down to the metal lets water in, and rust follows.
The most common problems we’re called about are:
- Scuffs and scratches in the surface
- Holes from dropped items
- An old repair that has yellowed or come loose
- A chip where the taps sit
Questions to ask before booking
- How to look after the finish
- Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price
- How the room is protected while they work
- Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?

What bath repair costs
Repairs from £95. There is no charge for travel to Bradwell. The price depends on:
- Doing more than one item at once
- How easy the damage is to reach
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
Every job is a little different, so each one is priced on its own. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all play a part, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.
Send photos for a quote
You can typically get a fixed price without us visiting. To help us price it:
- The material, if you know it
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- One picture of the whole bath
You do not need a survey visit. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we’ll come back to you with a fixed figure.
What we do, step by step
Here’s how a visit normally runs: we arrive at the agreed slot, protect everything around the work area, do the job and tidy away. Allow a few hours, depending on the damage from start to finish. Before we go, we’ll explain when it can be used and how to look after it.
- 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.
- The colour is tinted by hand until it matches.
- The repair is polished to the same gloss as the bath and left to cure.
Getting ready for the visit
- Let the surface dry out before the visit
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
- Keep a parking space free if you can
Get a quote
A quote takes minutes to ask for: photograph the damage, then the whole bath, add your postcode and send them over. You’ll get a fixed quote, not an estimate.

When a repair isn’t the answer
Not everything can be repaired, and we will tell you before we start. Repairs won’t solve:
- Acrylic cracks with no access behind them
- Metal that has corroded all the way through
- A whole bath that is dull or worn, where a full re-enamel is the better fix
Send us pictures and we will tell you honestly.
Materials we work on in Bradwell

More services for Bradwell
Different materials, different repairs
Pressed steel
Steel baths and trays have a thin metal body under the enamel. Exposed steel rusts quickly, so we treat and seal the metal before filling.
Composite and resin
Composite baths are dense and solid, and frequently freestanding. Chips and scratches can be filled and colour matched, just like other baths.
Looking after it afterwards
Good habits make a big difference to how long a repair lasts. Here’s what we suggest:
- Cover the bath during DIY or decorating
- Don’t scrub with anything abrasive
- Have new chips seen to early
- A dripping tap stains enamel, so fix it early
Give the repair the full curing time we recommend before running a bath. From then on, mild cleaning is all it needs.
Small chips are quick to repair. Leave them and they collect dirt, stain and, on metal baths, rust, so early repair saves time and money.
