We are frequently asked to fix rust by the waste and overflow and an old repair that has yellowed or come loose, in roll-top & freestanding, whirlpool & spa baths and acrylic.

Common problems we fix in Brea
A bath gets knocked about more than you’d think: everyday items get dropped into it all the time, and taps and wastes are tightened against the surface. Sooner or later, most baths pick up a chip.
Typical reasons for a call-out include:
- Scratches you can feel with a fingernail
- Snagging damage from a refit
- Impact holes in acrylic
- Chips on the rim or sides
What your quote should include
- Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price
- The length of the guarantee and what it covers
- Whether the colour is mixed to match
- Whether there are any call-out or travel charges
Can I fix it myself?
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair won’t last.
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is typically the cheaper route.
When we’d advise against a repair
To be straight with you, there are a few things a repair won’t fix:
- Wear across the entire surface, which needs re-enamelling
- A bath that flexes because its feet or cradle have failed (that needs fixing first)
- Leaks from the waste or overflow fittings (a plumber’s job)
Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly before booking.

How the visit works
Nothing needs to be moved out of the room beforehand. We bring everything we need with us, put protection down and start once you are happy with the plan. Most jobs take a morning or an afternoon, and you are welcome to carry on with your day while we work.
- Dust sheets and masking go down around the bath.
- The damaged area is cleaned, keyed and degreased.
- We fill it, let it set, then sand it flush.
- We match both the colour and the shine.
- We clear up and give you the curing time, normally until the next day.
Getting ready for the visit
- Keep a parking space free if you can
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
- Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing

Repairing versus replacing in Brea
Cast iron baths in particular are worth repairing: 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. Our bath repair starts from £95. The price reflects the work involved, not where you live. You will see the full price before booking, with nothing added on the day.
What you get with us

Repairs by material
Cast iron
Cast iron baths are thick and very strong, finished with fired enamel. A chip down to the iron can rust, but the body of the bath lasts a very long time, so it’s always worth repairing.
Pressed steel
Under the enamel of a steel bath is thin metal. Once a chip exposes it, rust follows quickly, so the metal is treated and sealed before the repair.

Aftercare tips
Aftercare is simple:
- Stick to mild cleaners and a soft cloth
- Rinse it down after each bath
- Store metal items away from the bath
- Keep abrasive pads and gritty cleaners away from the bath
Don’t leave razors, cans or hair grips in the bath, because they can mark the enamel. And fix dripping taps promptly.
Stop using the bath if a crack lets water through until it’s repaired. Leaks under a bath can damage floors and ceilings.
