Bath repair in Braithwell without replacing anything
Chips, cracks, rust spots and small holes can be repaired with the bath left exactly where it is. Nothing is unplumbed, the tiles aren’t touched, and the repaired area is colour-matched so it blends in. Typical jobs include a failed DIY repair that’s discoloured or lifting and chips along the edge of the bath, across whirlpool & spa baths, acrylic and pressed steel enamel.
Peace of mind is built in: our one-year guarantee applies to every job, and we’ll explain exactly what it covers when we quote.

How we price bath repair
Repairs from £95. We give every job a fixed price from pictures. This is what makes a difference:
- The size and number of damaged areas
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- How hard the colour is to match
We don’t add extras on the day. What we quote from your photos is what you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.
Send photos for a quote
Phone pictures are fine, there is no need for anything special. Just ensure we can see:
- Where you are, by postcode
- Something in shot to show the size
- Details of any past repairs
- Any details about the material
If you are in Braithwell and want a price, pictures are the quickest way: one close up, one from further back, plus your postcode. We reply with a fixed quote and our next available dates.
Repair or replace: which is better?
Replacing a bath rarely stops at the bath: tiles along the rim usually crack when it comes out, a new panel is frequently needed, and a plumber has to disconnect and reconnect everything. Repairing the damage avoids all of that. Prices start from £95. The price depends on how much damage there is and what kind, the material and how many items we do on one visit. We give a fixed quote from your pictures, so there are no surprises on the day.
Why us?
- Straight answers about what a repair can do
- Most jobs done in one visit
- Colours mixed by hand to suit your surface
- Accredited with CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor

Common questions in Braithwell
Can pets and children be at home?
Please keep children and pets out of the room during the visit. Everywhere else in the home is fine.
What if the damage is worse than the pictures show?
The price is fixed for what the pictures show. If there is more, we will tell you before starting.
Do you work for landlords and businesses?
Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as householders across Rotherham.
Can you match an avocado or pink bath?
Yes. We mix the colour on the day to match, including older coloured suites.
Is a cracked acrylic bath repairable?
In most cases. The back of the crack is strengthened before the front is filled and refinished, so we need access under the bath.
Do you work in Braithwell?
Yes. We work across the UK and travel to Braithwell. Send photos and we’ll quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
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.
Will I be able to see the repair?
We aim for a repair you cannot easily find. How well it disappears depends on the condition of the rest of the bath.
How it works
Once we are through the door, we keep the work contained to the one room. We mask off everything nearby, the job takes two to three hours for most chips, depending on what we find, and we finish by cleaning up and talking you through the result.
- First, the area is cleaned and any loose enamel or rust is removed.
- We fill the damage and sand it flush with the surrounding surface.
- We tint the finish on the day to suit your bath’s shade of white or colour.
- We apply the finish coats and polish the repair so it blends in.
- Once it has cured, normally by the following day, the bath is ready to use.
Before we arrive
- Make sure the area is dry
- Let us know about parking or access
- Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
Getting a price
You don’t need a survey visit. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price.

Honest limits
Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:
- Rust that has eaten right through a steel bath
- Water coming from the waste or taps rather than the bath
- Wear across the entire surface, which needs re-enamelling
If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think.
Surfaces we repair
- Pressed steel enamel
- Whirlpool & spa baths
- Roll-top & freestanding
- Cast iron enamel
- Acrylic
Aftercare tips
A little care keeps the finish looking good. Our advice:
- Use a soft cloth and washing-up liquid for everyday cleaning
- Put a towel in the bath if you are working above it
- Keep abrasive pads and gritty cleaners away from the bath
- Check that an acrylic bath does not move when you stand in it
Clean with mild, non-abrasive cleaners and avoid dropping heavy items on the repaired area. Deal with new chips early, before rust sets in.
If an acrylic bath has a crack, stop showering in it until it’s repaired. Every use opens the crack a little more, and it can start to leak underneath.
Landlords, agents and businesses in Braithwell
Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover. Several plots can be done in one visit.
We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out pictures. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.
Different materials, different repairs
Composite and resin
Composite baths are dense and solid. Chips and scratches are filled and matched, just like other baths.
Acrylic
Acrylic feels warm and is light, but it needs firm support underneath. Repairs to cracks are reinforced from the back.
