About our bath repair in Bromford
A repair fixes just the damaged area and blends it into the rest of the bath, which costs far less than replacing a fitted bath and the tiles around it. You can normally use the bath the following day. Our repair technicians work on whirlpool & spa baths, acrylic and roll-top & freestanding, and the jobs we see most are a cracked acrylic bath and rust by the waste and overflow.
We stand behind the work with a one-year guarantee, so you are not left on your own once we have gone.

Repairs by material
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 the part we put right.
Pressed steel
Steel baths and trays have a thin metal body under the enamel. Exposed steel rusts quickly, so we treat and seal the metal before filling.

Repairing versus replacing in Bromford
Swapping a damaged bath for a new one normally involves a plumber, removing the old bath, re-tiling and a new panel and disposing of the old one. Repairing it deals only with the damage in a single visit. Prices start from £95. Compared with replacing, a repair is normally a fraction of the price, because there’s no removal, plumbing or making good. The quote lists exactly what you’re paying for.

Looking after it afterwards
After the repair has cured, a few habits help it last:
- Rinse the bath after use, especially in hard water areas
- Use a soft cloth and washing-up liquid for everyday cleaning
- Don’t leave a fresh chip for long
- Ensure an acrylic bath is firm underfoot
Leave the repair to cure for as long as we say before using the bath. From then on, mild cleaning is all it needs.
A small chip is a quick job. Leave them and they collect dirt, stain and, on metal baths, rust, so it’s worth getting them done early.
What a repair can’t fix
A few problems are outside what a surface repair can do:
- Flexing caused by a failed cradle or loose feet
- Water coming from the waste or taps rather than the bath
- A steel bath rusted through
Send us pictures and we will tell you honestly before you book.

- Rust by the waste and overflow
- Chips on the rim or sides
- A failed DIY repair that’s discoloured or lifting
- Damage beneath the taps

Bromford questions
Can you repair a chip on a coloured bath?
Yes. The colour is mixed on site to suit your bath, including pastel and older colours.
Do I have to be there?
We need someone to let us in. After that, you can carry on with your day.
Is it safe with children and pets around?
On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children.
What happens next?
We check the damage, the material and your postcode, then reply with a quote and the next dates we have.
Is there any odour?
A little, depending on the job. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum.
What happens if you find more damage?
We stop, show you and agree any change before carrying on. Nothing extra is done without your say-so.
Is a cracked acrylic bath repairable?
Typically, yes, if we can reach the underside to reinforce it. Check under the bath panel, or send us a picture.
Can tenants book a repair?
Yes. Ask your landlord first, and we can send them the quote if that helps.
The process
From the moment we arrive, we keep the work contained to the one room. We mask off everything nearby, the job takes a few hours, depending on what we find, and we finish by cleaning up and talking you through the result.
- We start by cleaning the damage and taking out loose enamel and rust.
- We fill the damage and sand it flush with the surrounding surface.
- We mix the colour on the day to match your bath’s exact shade.
- Finish coats go on, then the repair is polished to blend in.
- Once it has cured, normally by the next day, the bath is ready to use.
Preparing for the visit
- Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
- Have a window or extractor fan available

Related advice
DIY kit or professional repair?
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is generally cheaper.
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
What bath repair costs
Prices start from £95. Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we take into account:
- The colour and finish to match
- How easy the damage is to reach
- Doing more than one item at once
- The type of damage
It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.
Send photos for a quote
You can usually get a fixed price without us visiting. To make it quick:
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- Natural light rather than flash
- Any details about the material
A quote takes minutes to ask for: take one close-up and one wider shot of the bath, add your postcode and send them to us. What comes back is a fixed quote, not a guess.
