About our bath repair in Braithwaite
You don’t need a new bath because of a chip. Our technicians fill, shape and refinish the damage, mixing the colour on the day so the repair is hard to spot. We are often asked to fix cracks in an acrylic bath and rust spots around the plughole, across cast iron enamel, whirlpool & spa baths and roll-top & freestanding.
We stand behind the work with a one-year guarantee.

FAQs for Braithwaite
Can you repair something that’s been repaired before?
Most of the time. Let us know what was used before and we will plan for it.
Do you come to Braithwaite?
Yes. We cover the whole UK and travel to Braithwaite. Send pictures and we’ll quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
Can rust on a bath be repaired?
Yes. We take out the rust and any loose enamel, seal and fill the area, then colour-match the finish.
Can I get a quote without a visit?
In nearly every case. We only ask to see it in person if the photos cannot show what we need.
Can you repair a crack in an acrylic bath?
In most cases. We reinforce the crack from behind, then fill and refinish the front, so access behind the panel is important.
Will the repair last?
Yes, if it’s prepared properly and the bath is sound. It’s covered by our one-year guarantee.
What areas do you cover?
All of Bradford, and the rest of the UK. Travel is included in the price.
Is the work guaranteed?
Yes, for a year. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.
How the visit works
Arrival times are agreed in advance, so you know when to expect us. Once we’re there, the work takes a morning or an afternoon. We leave the room clean and ready to use once it has cured.
- 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 mix the colour on the day to match your bath’s exact shade.
- We apply the finish coats and polish the repair so it blends in.
- The repair is left to cure, and most baths can be used the day after.
Getting ready for the visit
- Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
- Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
- Let us know about parking or access
Ask for a price
Pricing is simple: snap the damage close up and then the whole item, send them to us with your postcode, and you’ll get a fixed quote back. There’s no charge for the quote and you are under no obligation.

What we are called out for in Braithwaite
Many chips happen while the bathroom is being fitted. Tradespeople drop tools and tiles into the bath, frequently before anyone notices. We repair snagging damage like this regularly.
You may need us if you’ve spotted any of these:
- Rust by the waste and overflow
- Chips under the taps
- A hole punched through by something heavy
- Chips along the edge of the bath
Before you book anyone
- Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price
- What happens if the damage is worse than the photos show
- How your room will be protected
- What aftercare is recommended
Looking after it afterwards
After the repair has cured, a few habits help it last:
- Protect the bath with a towel when doing jobs nearby
- Don’t leave razors or cans standing in the bath
- Have new chips seen to early
- If an acrylic bath flexes, have its feet adjusted
Give the repair the full curing time we recommend before running a bath. After that, gentle cleaning keeps it looking good.
If water is getting through a crack, stop using the bath until it’s repaired. Water under the bath can damage the floor and the ceiling below.
Prices and what affects them
Repairs from £95. You won’t pay by the hour. The price is based on:
- How easy the damage is to reach
- Unusual colours or finishes
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- The size and number of damaged areas
A repair normally costs much less than people expect, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Send pictures and we will give you the exact figure.
Quotes from your pictures
You can normally get a fixed quote without us visiting. To make it quick:
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- A picture taken from further back
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
Most customers in Braithwaite get their price from photos. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we will send back a fixed quote and some dates.
What we cannot put right
To be straight with you, some problems need a different fix:
- Flexing caused by a failed cradle or loose feet
- Water coming from the waste or taps rather than the bath
- Rust that has eaten right through a steel bath
Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly.
Materials we work on in Braithwaite
- Whirlpool & spa baths
- Cast iron enamel
- Pressed steel enamel
- Acrylic
- Roll-top & freestanding
Why repair rather than replace?
Think about the hidden costs of a new bath: removal and disposal, plumbing, a new panel, tiling and decorating. With a repair, it’s one visit and one price. Prices start from £95. We do not add extras on the day. The price we quote from your photos is the price you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.
Why book with us
- Work done at your home or business
- One-year guarantee on every repair
- A fixed quote before you book
- One price list for the whole UK

Other services in Braithwaite
Landlords, agents and businesses in Braithwaite
Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.
Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Braithwaite use us as well as householders. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it generally costs far less than a refit.
DIY repairs versus a professional job
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
