Common questions in Broomhall

Can a cracked acrylic bath be fixed?

Often, yes, if we can reach the underside to reinforce it. Check under the bath panel, or send us a picture.

Are you a vetted contractor?

We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.

Can you redo someone else’s repair?

Most of the time. Tell us what was done before.

Is it safe with children and pets around?

We ask you to keep children and pets out of the room while we work and until it has cured. The rest of the house is unaffected.

Will the repair show?

The goal is a repair that blends in. The rest of the bath’s condition makes a difference.

Can I get a quote without a visit?

Nearly always. We only ask to see it in person if the photos cannot show what we need.

Can you repair a chip on a coloured bath?

Yes, coloured baths are no problem. We tint the finish to your bath on site.

Is there any odour?

There may be a mild smell during the work.

Bath repair at your home in Broomhall

You do not need a new bath because of a chip. We fill the damage, shape it to the curve of the bath and refinish it, with the colour mixed on site so the repair is hard to spot. Typical jobs include holes from dropped items and chips under the taps, across pressed steel enamel, roll-top & freestanding and acrylic.

Whatever the size of the job, you get the same one-year guarantee in Broomhall and across Sheffield.

How it works

We agree an arrival time beforehand. On site, it takes a few hours in most cases. The room is left tidy.

  1. First, the area is cleaned and any loose enamel or rust is removed.
  2. We fill the damage and sand it flush with the surrounding surface.
  3. We mix the colour on the day to match your bath’s exact shade.
  4. We apply the finish coats and polish the repair so it blends in.
  5. We leave it to cure; you can usually use the bath the day after.

Before we arrive

  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
  • Ensure the room can be ventilated
  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area

Repair or replace: which is better?

When the bath is otherwise sound, repairing beats replacing. It’s quicker, cheaper and far less disruptive, and the bathroom stays as it is. Where the whole surface is tired, we may suggest re-enamelling instead. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is normally a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

What you get with us

  • Honest advice, even when it means no job
  • Every repair guaranteed for a year
  • We leave the room as we found it
  • Colour mixed on the day to match

Landlords, agents and businesses in Broomhall

Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.

We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Broomhall as well as homeowners. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it normally costs far less than a refit.

When we would advise against a repair

Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair can’t fix:

  • Metal that has corroded all the way through
  • Acrylic cracks with no access behind them
  • A whole bath that is dull or worn, where a full re-enamel is the better fix

Send us pictures and we will tell you honestly before booking.

Materials we repair

  • Cast iron enamel
  • Roll-top & freestanding
  • Acrylic
  • Pressed steel enamel
  • Whirlpool & spa baths

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Acrylic

An acrylic bath is a moulded sheet strengthened from below. They don’t rust, but they can crack, scratch or be holed, and a crack only stays repaired if it’s supported underneath.

Composite and resin

Stone resin and composite baths are heavy and solid, and frequently freestanding. Chips and scratches are filled and matched, in much the same way.

Prices and what affects them

Repairs from £95. We give every job a fixed quote from pictures. This is what makes a difference:

  • Doing more than one item at once
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • What the surface is made of
  • How easy the damage is to reach

What it costs depends on the type and amount of damage, what it’s made of and how many jobs we combine into one visit. You get a fixed price from your photos, so you know the cost before you book.

Quotes from your photos

The better the photos, the more accurate the price. Here’s what we find most useful:

  • A picture taken from further back
  • Where you are, by postcode
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • Natural light rather than flash

For a price in Broomhall, the easiest route is pictures: one close up, one from further back, plus your postcode. You will get a fixed quote with dates to choose from.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

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 normally cheaper.

If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely and work on a clean, dry surface, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.

What we are called out for in Broomhall

Glass and heavy bottles cause more chips than anything else, closely followed by shower heads. Taps and wastes cause problems too: water collects there, so chips nearby rust quickly.

You may need us if you’ve spotted:

  • A chipped rim or side
  • A chip where the taps sit
  • Snagging damage from a refit
  • Cracks in an acrylic bath

What your quote should include

  • How long it needs to cure
  • What prep work is covered
  • How changes to the job are handled
  • Whether a trained technician does the job
