Bath repair at your home in Brooksbottoms
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. You can generally use the bath the next day. We regularly repair whirlpool & spa baths, cast iron enamel and acrylic, and the jobs we see most are chips under the taps and scuffs and scratches in the surface.
Peace of mind is built in: each job carries a one-year guarantee, and we will explain exactly what it covers when we quote.

What happens on the day
Your technician turns up at the time we agreed with you, introduces themselves and looks over the damage before anything else. Dust sheets and masking tape go down before we open a single tin. Most visits take a morning or an afternoon, and the room is left clean and tidy.
- We protect the bath and the floor around it.
- We clean, key and degrease the damage.
- Filler goes in and is sanded flush once it has set.
- We match both the colour and the shine.
- We clear up and give you the curing time, normally until the day after.
How to prepare
- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
- Let the surface dry out before the visit
- Tell us if there are stairs or a lift

Brooksbottoms questions
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
Generally, yes. Let us know what was used before and we’ll plan for it.
Is there a guarantee?
Yes, for a year. If there’s a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.
Can you quote from pictures?
Nearly always. If photos don’t show enough, we’ll ask for another angle.
How long before I can use the bath?
Normally the following day. We confirm the time before we leave.
Can a cracked acrylic bath be fixed?
Frequently, yes, if we can reach the underside to reinforce it. Check under the bath panel, or send us a picture.
Will the price change on the day?
We will show you and explain before doing anything extra. Nothing extra is done without your say-so.
Is a bath repair permanent?
Yes, if it’s prepared properly and the bath is sound. It carries our one-year guarantee.
Will it make a mess?
Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and we clean up when we have finished.
What we cannot put right
A repair isn’t always the answer, and we would rather say so up front. Repairs won’t solve:
- Wear across the whole surface, which needs re-enamelling
- Metal that has corroded all the way through
- Flexing caused by a failed cradle or loose feet
Send us pictures and we will tell you honestly.
Materials we work on in Brooksbottoms
- Pressed steel enamel
- Whirlpool & spa baths
- Cast iron enamel
- Roll-top & freestanding
- Acrylic
Prices and what affects them
Repairs from £95. You won’t pay by the hour. The price depends on:
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- How easy the damage is to reach
- Doing more than one item at once
- How much damage there is
Instead of hourly rates, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and combining items on one visit brings it down.
Send pictures for a quote
Before you send photos, these tips help us give you a firm price:
- Any details about the material
- Details of any past repairs
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
To get a price, send a couple of photos through our quote form or ring us. We’ll say straight away whether it can be repaired.
Common problems we fix in Brooksbottoms
A bath gets knocked about more than you’d think: everyday items get dropped into it all the time, and fittings press hard against the enamel. Over time, chips and rust spots are almost inevitable.
Clients usually contact us about:
- Chips under the taps
- Hairline or through cracks in acrylic
- Deep scratches in acrylic
- A chipped rim or side

DIY repairs versus a professional job
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair won’t last.
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is usually cheaper.
Different materials, different repairs
Cast iron
Cast iron baths are so heavy that repairing in place makes obvious sense. 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. Chips and scratches are filled and matched, in much the same way.
