How we handle bath repair in Broadgate
Repairing baths is what we do most. Chips on the rim, rust around the waste and cracks in acrylic are all repaired in place, normally in a single visit. If you’re dealing with damage done while the bathroom was being fitted and chips along the edge of the bath, we can help, on roll-top & freestanding, pressed steel enamel and whirlpool & spa baths alike.
The work is covered for a year after we finish. If anything isn’t right, ring us and we’ll come back.

Honest limits
Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair cannot fix:
- Cracks in acrylic we cannot reach from underneath
- Wear across the entire surface, which needs re-enamelling
- A bath that moves underfoot, until its support is fixed

How it works
There’s not much you need to do on the day. Let us in and show us the room, and we’ll get on with it. The job generally runs to a morning or an afternoon.
- 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.
- Finally, it’s polished to match the shine and left to cure.
Before we arrive
- Make sure the room can be ventilated
- Ensure the area is dry
- Tell us about parking, stairs or access
Ask for a price
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.
Advice
How to care for the repair
To keep it looking its best for years:
- A dripping tap stains enamel, so fix it early
- Rinse the bath after use, especially in hard water areas
- Get any new chip repaired before it rusts
- Clean with warm water and a mild detergent
For the first few days, keep heavy bottles off the repaired spot. After that, clean it as you would the rest of the bath.
If an acrylic bath has a crack, stop showering in it until it’s repaired. Every use opens the crack a little more, and water can get through to the floor below.

DIY kit or professional repair?
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is typically the cheaper route.
What bath repair costs
Repairs from £95. Each job gets its own fixed quote. This is what makes a difference:
- How many areas need work
- Unusual colours or finishes
- How many items we do on one visit
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
What it costs 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 you know the cost before you book.
Quotes from your photos
A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. Try to include:
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- The material, if you know it
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
If you are in Broadgate and want a price, the easiest route is pictures: one close up, one from further back, plus your postcode. You’ll get a fixed quote with dates to choose from.
Why repair rather than replace?
Replacing a bath rarely stops at the bath: the tiles sitting on the rim tend to break, a new panel is often needed, and the plumbing has to be disconnected and refitted. Repairing the damage avoids all of that. Prices start from £95. We do not add extras on the day. The price we quote from your pictures is the price you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.
Why us?
- Honest advice, even when it means no job
- Most jobs done in one visit
- We come to you, anywhere in the UK
- Colours mixed by hand to suit your surface

Landlord and trade work in Broadgate
Rental properties take more wear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.
We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out photos. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.
Questions from Broadgate
What information do you need?
A close-up, a wider photo and your postcode. Then we will agree a date.
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
Yes, regularly. It can add a little time, which we include in the quote.
Can you repair a crack in an acrylic bath?
Most of the time. The back of the crack is strengthened before the front is filled and refinished, so access behind the panel is important.
Will you leave a mess?
Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and we clean up when we have finished.
Is my repair covered?
Every repair comes with our one-year guarantee. We’ll explain what it covers when we quote.
Can you price it without visiting?
Yes, almost always. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed price.
Will there be a smell?
There may be a mild smell during the work.
Can you repair a hole in a bath?
In most cases. Photos of the hole and the underside help us check.
Signs you need bath repair in Broadgate
Dropped items cause the majority of chips, and a lot happen during bathroom refits. Acrylic baths crack for a different reason: poor support underneath, so the bath flexes when it’s full.
The most common problems we’re called about are:
- Chips under the taps
- Chips caused by builders
- Rusty patches near the plughole
- A hole punched through by something heavy
Questions to ask before you book
- What preparation is included
- What aftercare is recommended
- Whether there are any call-out or travel charges
- Whether the colour is mixed to match
