Bath Repair for Broome Street homes
We travel to Broome Street for chip and crack repairs to enamel, acrylic and cast iron baths. Nothing is taken out, with a one-year guarantee.
- Repairs from £95
- Scuffs and scratches in the surface

What we do, step by step
There is not much you need to do on the day. Let us in and show us the room, and we’ll get on with it. Most visits take a morning or an afternoon, including clearing up.
- First, the area is cleaned and any loose enamel or rust is removed.
- The chip or crack is filled, then sanded level with the bath.
- We mix the colour on the day to match your bath’s exact shade.
- We build up the finish and polish it into the surrounding enamel.
- Once it has cured, usually by the next day, the bath is ready to use.
Before we arrive
- Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
- Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing

About our bath repair in Broome Street
Whether your bath is steel, cast iron or acrylic, we can repair it. Each material is repaired a little differently: rust is treated on metal baths, while cracks in acrylic are reinforced from underneath. Our repair technicians work on pressed steel enamel, cast iron enamel and whirlpool & spa baths, and the jobs we see most are a chip where the taps sit and chips along the edge of the bath.
The work is covered for a year after we finish. Just call us if there’s a problem and we’ll sort it.

Honest limits
A repair isn’t right for every job, for example:
- Leaking fittings, which need a plumber
- A bath that moves underfoot, until its support is fixed
- Wear across the whole surface, which needs re-enamelling

Aftercare tips
Most damage we see is avoidable. These habits help:
- Don’t scrub with anything abrasive
- Have new chips seen to early
- Give the bath a quick rinse after use
- Store metal items away from the bath
A repaired bath needs no special treatment, just sensible cleaning. Skip bleach and gritty creams.
Tape over a fresh chip or crack until it’s repaired, to keep water out. Take it off before we arrive.
Can I fix it myself?
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 often lifts.
A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it won’t stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.
Repairing versus replacing in Broome Street
Swapping a damaged bath for a new one normally involves a plumber, removing the old bath, re-tiling and a new panel and getting rid of the old bath. A repair deals only with the damage in a single visit. Prices start from £95. Compared with replacing, a repair is typically a fraction of the price, because there is no removal, plumbing or making good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

How we price bath repair
Repairs from £95. You’ll know the full cost before you book. We take into account:
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- The type of damage
- The colour and finish to match
- Doing more than one item at once
Every job is a little different, so each one is priced on its own. The size and type of damage, the material and access all play a part, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.
Send photos for a quote
Phone pictures are fine. Make sure they show:
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- Something in shot to show the size
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
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. You’ll get a fixed quote, not an estimate.
Broome Street: your questions answered
When can I have a bath again?
Typically the day after. We will tell you the exact curing time when we finish.
Is there any odour?
A little, depending on the job. Open windows and an extractor fan help.
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
Just keep them out of the work area. We will let you know when it’s safe to use again.
Is repairing better than replacing?
Generally, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. If it is not worth repairing, we’ll tell you.
Do you cover the whole of Suffolk?
Everywhere in the UK, Broome Street included. Travel is included in the price.
Will the repair last?
Yes, if it’s prepared properly and the bath is sound. It carries our one-year guarantee.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Of course, and it normally saves money. Send pictures of everything together and we will quote them together.
Do you hold any accreditations?
We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.
Repairs by material
Composite and resin
Stone resin and composite baths are heavy and solid. Chips and scratches can be filled and colour matched, just like other baths.
Pressed steel
Under the enamel of a steel bath is thin metal. Exposed steel rusts quickly, so the metal is treated and sealed before the repair.
What we’re called out for in Broome Street
A cracked acrylic bath generally wasn’t supported properly. Legs that aren’t adjusted, a missing cradle or a soft floor let the bath move until the acrylic gives way.
People usually call us after spotting one of these:
- Rusty patches near the plughole
- Impact holes in acrylic
- Chips along the edge of the bath
- Cracks in an acrylic bath
