Bath repair near Broomer's Corner

How we handle bath repair in Broomer's Corner

A repair fixes just the damaged area and blends it into the rest of the bath, which is far cheaper than replacing a fitted bath and the tiles around it. You can usually use the bath the next day. We work on cast iron enamel, acrylic and pressed steel enamel, and common reasons people get in touch are deep scratches in acrylic and holes from dropped items.

The work is covered for a year after we finish. Just call us if there’s a problem and we’ll come back.

Prices and what affects them

Prices start from £95. Every quote is fixed and free. What we look at:

  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • What the surface is made of
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • The size and number of damaged areas

We do not add extras on the day. The price we quote from your photos is the price you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.

How to get a fixed quote

Before you send pictures, a few simple things make all the difference:

  • Where you are, by postcode
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area

For a price in Broomer's Corner, pictures are the quickest way: a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode. You will get a fixed quote with dates to choose from.

When to call us in Broomer's Corner

Dropped items cause the majority of chips, and a lot happen during bathroom refits. Cracks in acrylic have a different cause: the bath isn’t properly supported, so it flexes under weight.

People typically call us after spotting one of these:

  • Chips on the rim or sides
  • Cracks in an acrylic bath
  • A failed DIY repair that is discoloured or lifting
  • A hole punched through by something heavy

Before booking anyone

  • A fixed quote, and whether VAT is included
  • What prep work is covered
  • How soon you can use it again
  • How your room will be protected

Choosing a repair company

For landlords and businesses

We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which matters when someone is living in the home.

Hospitality businesses cannot afford rooms out of action for long, so we keep visits short and tidy. We can work around your bookings.

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Cast iron

Cast iron is heavy and rigid, with a fused enamel surface. A chip down to the iron can rust, but the bath itself lasts for generations, which makes it well worth repairing.

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.

Broomer's Corner: your questions answered

What if the damage is worse than the photos show?

If we find something the pictures didn’t show, we explain it first. The price only changes if you agree.

Is my repair covered?

Every repair comes with our one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.

Is a cracked acrylic bath repairable?

Usually, 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.

I rent my home. Can I book you?

Yes, though it’s best to check with your landlord first. Landlords are often glad to have it sorted.

Can you repair a failed DIY repair?

Yes. We take out the old repair and do it properly. Tell us about it when you send pictures.

How quickly can you book me in?

We’ll give you dates with your quote. If it’s urgent, say so and we will do what we can.

Can I get a quote without a visit?

Typically, yes. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed quote.

How long before I can use the bath?

Usually within a day, depending on the repair.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.

A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it won’t stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.

What happens on the day

The work is clean and fairly quiet. Protection goes down first, then the work takes two to three hours for most chips. At the end we talk you through the curing time and the aftercare.

  1. We protect the bath and the floor around it.
  2. The damaged area is cleaned, keyed and degreased.
  3. Filler goes in and is sanded flush once it has set.
  4. Colour and gloss are matched to the surrounding surface.
  5. We tidy up and tell you when the bath can be used, typically the following day.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Let us know if it has been repaired before
  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area

Getting a price

Email us photos of the damage and one of the entire item, with your RH13 postcode, and we’ll come back with a fixed quote.

Advice

What we cannot put right

We would rather lose a job than do one that will not last, so these are the limits:

  • Flexing caused by a failed cradle or loose feet
  • Acrylic cracks with no access behind them
  • Metal that has corroded all the way through

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