Why repair rather than replace?

Many people think a damaged bath means a new one. Normally it does not: a proper repair gives it years more use, and costs far less than the disruption of a replacement. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. We charge the same wherever you are, with no extra for Broadwey. The job itself decides the price: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

Why us?

  • Nothing taken out or refitted
  • Accredited with CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor
  • Generally one visit, start to finish
  • Honest advice, even when it means no job

Different materials, different repairs

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.

Composite and resin

Stone resin and composite baths are heavy and solid, and often freestanding. Chips and scratches can be filled and colour matched, just like other baths.

Your questions about bath repair in Broadwey

How invisible is a bath repair?

On a bath in good condition, a colour matched repair is very hard to spot. On worn enamel, it can look shinier than the rest.

Can landlords book you?

Yes. We carry out repairs for householders, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses.

Will the repair last?

Done properly, a repair lasts for years, and it’s guaranteed for a year. Gentle cleaning helps it last.

How quickly can you book me in?

That depends on our diary for your area. Send pictures with your postcode and we’ll reply with the earliest dates.

What happens if you find more damage?

If we find something the pictures didn’t show, we explain it first. You decide whether to go ahead.

Do you repair coloured baths?

Yes. The colour is mixed on site to suit your bath, including older coloured suites.

When can I have a bath again?

Normally by the following day, depending on the repair.

Can you do more than one item on the same visit?

Yes, and it’s often cheaper. Just add the extra items to your photos and you will get one combined price.

What happens on the day

On the day itself, there’s little for you to do. Let us in and show us the room, and we’ll get on with it. Most visits take a few hours, tidy-up included.

  1. We clean the area and remove any loose enamel or rust.
  2. The chip or crack is filled, then sanded level with the bath.
  3. We mix the colour on the day to match your bath’s exact shade.
  4. We apply the finish coats and polish the repair so it blends in.
  5. Once it has cured, generally by the following day, the bath is ready to use.

Preparing for the visit

  • Open a window if you can
  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat

Landlord and trade work in Broadwey

We’re used to working with agents and managing companies. Send the address, pictures and access details and we’ll arrange it.

When to call us in Broadwey

Most bath damage comes from something dropped: a shampoo bottle, a shower head, a tile or a tool during a refit. On enamelled baths, a chip that reaches the metal will start to rust.

If you can see any of these, send us a picture:

  • Snagging damage from a refit
  • Chips under the taps
  • Chips on the rim or sides
  • A hole punched through by something heavy

What your quote should include

  • Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?
  • What the guarantee covers, and for how long
  • How to care for the finish
  • How changes to the job are handled

Choosing a repair company

What affects the price in Broadwey

Repairs from £95. There’s no area surcharge for Broadwey. What changes the price is:

  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • How hard the colour is to match
  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • The material

Set against the cost of replacement, repairing usually costs far less, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. The quote lists exactly what you’re paying for.

How to get a fixed quote

Most quotes are done from pictures alone. To help us price it:

  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • Details of any past repairs
  • Natural light rather than flash
  • A wider photo showing the whole bath

Send us a photo of the damage and one of the entire item, and tell us you’re in Broadwey, and we will come back with a fixed quote.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it does not stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.

When a repair isn’t the answer

It helps to know what we cannot do too:

  • Wear across the entire surface, which needs re-enamelling
  • Cracks in parts of an acrylic bath we cannot get to from below
  • Water coming from the waste or taps rather than the bath

Not sure? Send pictures and we will give you a straight answer.
