Bath Repair in Brookhay
Bath repair in and around Brookhay: a fixed quote from photos, a tidy visit and a one-year guarantee.
- Repairs from £95
- Rusty patches near the plughole
- Hairline or through cracks in acrylic
Should I try a DIY kit first?
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, then guarantee it for a year.
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.
Bath repair in Brookhay without replacing anything
Small damage on a bath is worth repairing early. On steel and cast iron, exposed metal starts to rust, and on acrylic, a crack keeps spreading while the bath flexes. Repairing it stops the damage getting worse. We work on acrylic, pressed steel enamel and whirlpool & spa baths, and the jobs we see most are a chip where the taps sit and cracks in an acrylic bath.
Every repair comes with our one-year guarantee, wherever you are in Staffordshire.

What we are called out for in Brookhay
The usual cause is something heavy dropped into the bath, and a lot happen during bathroom refits. Acrylic baths crack for a different reason: the bath isn’t properly supported, so it flexes under weight.
These are the problems we’re asked about most:
- Snagging damage from a refit
- A kit repair that didn’t last
- A chip where the taps sit
- Scuffs and scratches in the surface
What your quote should include
- When it can be used again
- Whether the colour is mixed to match
- A fixed price, and whether VAT is included
- If travel is included in the price
Prices and what affects them
Repairs from £95. Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we take into account:
- The type of damage
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- What the surface is made of
- How many areas need work
A repair normally costs much less than people expect, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Send photos and we’ll give you the exact figure.
Send photos for a quote
Before you send photos, a few simple things make all the difference:
- Details of any past repairs
- Natural light rather than flash
- Something in shot to show the size
- The material, if you know it
Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: take one close-up and one wider shot of the bath, add your postcode and send them over. You’ll get a fixed price, not an estimate.
Landlords, agents and businesses in Brookhay
We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Brookhay as well as householders. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it normally costs far less than a refit.
If you manage property in Brookhay, we will quote for several properties at once. Just send pictures for each address and we’ll come back with a combined price.
When a repair is not the answer
A few problems are outside what a surface repair can do:
- A bath that flexes because its feet or cradle have failed (that needs fixing first)
- Metal that has corroded all the way through
- Cracks in parts of an acrylic bath we cannot get to from below
If in doubt, send photos and we will say what we think before you book.
What we work on
- Pressed steel enamel
- Acrylic
- Cast iron enamel
- Roll-top & freestanding
- Whirlpool & spa baths
Repair or replace: which is better?
Think about the hidden costs of a new bath: removal and disposal, plumbing, a new panel, tiling and decorating. With a repair, it’s one visit and one price. Prices start from £95. Instead of hourly rates, we price the whole job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and doing several items at once reduces it.
What you get with us
- A fixed quote before you book
- Same prices wherever you are
- Everything repaired in place
- Honest advice, even when it means no job

How to care for the repair
Aftercare is simple, and it makes a real difference:
- Get any new chip repaired before it rusts
- Get a dripping tap fixed promptly
- Protect the bath with a towel when doing jobs nearby
- Don’t leave razors or cans standing in the bath
Care for the repair the same way as the bath: warm water, washing-up liquid and a soft cloth. Keep scouring pads and gritty cleaners away from it.
A chip on a metal bath shouldn’t be left. Water gets to the metal and rust starts, and a rust spot is a bigger repair than a clean chip.

Common questions in Brookhay
Can you repair a hole in a bath?
Usually, yes, if we can reach behind it. The hole is backed, filled and refinished to match.
Is there a guarantee?
Every repair comes with a one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.
Is a repair better than a new one?
Usually, when the rest is in good condition. A repair avoids removal and making good. We’ll tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.
Do you hold any accreditations?
We are accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.
Do you charge for travel?
Travel is included in the price, with the same prices everywhere we work.
Is there any odour?
It depends on the job, but often a little. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum, and it soon fades.
Can a cracked acrylic bath be fixed?
Generally, 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 happens once I’ve sent pictures?
We come back with a fixed price, generally with dates to choose from. There is no obligation to book.
