Bath chip & crack repair in Brinkley, Cambridgeshire

- Repairs from £95
- Holes from dropped items
- Deep scratches in acrylic
Different materials, different repairs
Acrylic
Acrylic baths are moulded sheet reinforced underneath. There’s no rust, but cracks, holes and scratches happen, and cracks need support from behind to stay fixed.
Pressed steel
Under the enamel of a steel bath is thin metal. Exposed steel rusts quickly, so we treat and seal the metal before filling.
How we handle bath repair in Brinkley
Most of our bath repairs take a few hours, and the bath is back in use the day after. You will not need a plumber or tiler, because nothing is disconnected. Our technicians work on roll-top & freestanding, whirlpool & spa baths and acrylic, and common reasons people contact us are chips on the rim or sides and a failed DIY repair that’s discoloured or lifting.
We stand behind the work with a one-year guarantee, so you are not left on your own once we’ve gone.

Keeping it looking good
A little care keeps the finish looking good. We recommend:
- Rinse the bath after use, especially in hard water areas
- Protect the bath with a towel when doing jobs nearby
- Stick to mild cleaners and a soft cloth
- Keep metal cans and razors off the surface
Give the repair the full curing time we recommend before using the 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 it’s worth getting them done early.
What we cannot put right
Before you book, it’s worth knowing the limits too:
- A whole bath that’s dull or worn, where a full re-enamel is the better fix
- Leaking fittings, which need a plumber
- Rust that has eaten right through a steel bath
Send us pictures and we will tell you honestly before booking.

Should I try a DIY kit first?
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. 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.
For a hairline mark somewhere you will never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.
What we’re called out for in Brinkley

- Cracks in an acrylic bath
- Scuffs and scratches in the surface
- Chips on the rim or sides

How the visit works
You do not need to empty the room. We bring everything we need with us, put protection down and start once you’re happy with the plan. Most jobs take a few hours, and you’re 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.
Getting ready for the visit
- Let us know if it has been repaired before
- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
- Let the surface dry out before the visit

- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- How hard the colour is to match
- The type of damage

A repair is priced on what needs doing, not your postcode. You will see the full price before booking.

- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size

For most jobs, pictures are all we need to give you a price. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we’ll send back a fixed quote and some dates.
Your questions about bath repair in Brinkley
Can you repair a crack in an acrylic bath?
Often, yes, as long as we can get to the back of the crack to support it. Check under the bath panel, or send us a photo.
What if the damage is worse than the photos show?
The price is fixed for what the photos show. Anything extra is discussed before we begin.
Can you fix rust around the plughole?
Yes, very often. We take it back to sound metal, seal it, fill it and match the colour.
It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?
Generally, yes. Let us know what was used before and we’ll plan for it.
Can you price it without visiting?
Yes, almost always. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed quote.
Will there be a smell?
It depends on the job, but often a little. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Of course, and it normally saves money. Send pictures of everything together and you’ll get one combined price.
Will the repair last?
It should, as long as the bath is firm and the area was prepared well. It carries our one-year guarantee.
