About our bath repair in Broadwater Farm

You don’t need a new bath because of a chip. Our technicians fill, shape and refinish the damage, with the colour mixed on site. Whether it’s a failed DIY repair that’s discoloured or lifting and chips along the edge of the bath, we can help, whatever the material.

When we’d advise against a repair

To be straight with you, there are a few things a repair will not fix:

  • A whole bath that is dull or worn, where a full re-enamel is the better fix
  • Rust that has eaten right through a steel bath
  • Leaking fittings, which need a plumber

Send us pictures and we will tell you honestly before you book.

What we work on

  • Acrylic
  • Pressed steel enamel
  • Cast iron enamel
  • Whirlpool & spa baths
  • Roll-top & freestanding

What your bath is made of matters

Pressed steel

Steel baths are lighter than cast iron, but have a similar enamel surface. Chips rust quickly on steel, especially around the waste, so early repairs matter.

Cast iron

A cast iron bath is heavy enough that most people never want to move it. The enamel is the part that wears or chips, and that is what we repair.

For landlords and businesses

We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Broadwater Farm as well as householders. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it typically costs far less than a refit.

We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out pictures. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.

Common problems we fix in Broadwater Farm

Many chips happen while the bathroom is being fitted. Tradespeople drop tools and tiles into the bath, and the damage is not always spotted until later. We repair snagging damage like this regularly.

Contact us if you’ve noticed any of these:

  • A chip where the taps sit
  • Impact holes in acrylic
  • A chipped rim or side
  • Rust by the waste and overflow

What your quote should include

  • Whether a trained technician does the job
  • How the colour is matched
  • Aftercare advice
  • What protection goes down before work starts

10 questions to ask before booking

Your questions about bath repair in Broadwater Farm

Do I need to be at home?

Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. You don’t need to watch us work.

Is a cracked acrylic bath repairable?

Most of the time. The back of the crack is strengthened before the front is filled and refinished, so we need access under the bath.

Can tenants book a repair?

Yes, but check with your landlord or agent first. Landlords are often glad to have it sorted.

What if the damage is worse than the pictures show?

It’s rare, but if it happens we talk to you first. The price only changes if you agree.

Is there any odour?

There may be a mild smell during the work, which fades afterwards.

Do you work in Broadwater Farm?

Yes, we do. We send a technician to Broadwater Farm for every job, with no extra charge for travel.

Can you quote from photos?

Nearly always. We only ask to see it in person if the pictures can’t show what we need.

Can you fix rust around the plughole?

Yes, very frequently. The rust is cut back to clean metal and sealed before we fill and finish it.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

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 then the old filler has to be removed first.

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair will not last.

Looking after it afterwards

So the finish stays in good condition for years:

  • Avoid scourers, wire wool and gritty cream cleaners
  • Rinse it down after each bath
  • Protect the bath with a towel when doing jobs nearby
  • Get a dripping tap fixed promptly

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. Left alone, they stain and can rust, so early repair saves time and money.

The process

We agree an arrival time beforehand. Once we are there, the work takes a few hours, depending on the damage in most cases. We leave the room clean.

  1. Dust sheets and masking go down around the bath.
  2. The damaged area is cleaned, keyed and degreased, and any rust is treated.
  3. Filler goes in and is sanded flush once it has set.
  4. Colour and gloss are matched to the surrounding surface.
  5. We clear up and give you the curing time, normally until the following day.

Before we arrive

  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
  • Open a window if you can
