Bath repair in Broomholm, done in place

Most bath damage, from chips and cracks to rust spots and holes, is repaired in place. There is no plumbing to disconnect, your tiles stay as they are, and the finish is matched to the rest of the bath. We’re often asked to fix a kit repair that didn’t last and rust spots around the plughole, across acrylic, roll-top & freestanding and whirlpool & spa baths.

We stand behind the work with a one-year guarantee, so you’re not left on your own once we have gone.

What we are called out for in Broomholm

Rust tends to begin where water collects, by the plughole, beneath dripping taps or in an unrepaired chip. Once water reaches the steel or iron, rust spreads under the enamel.

Send us a picture if you notice any of these:

  • Impact holes in acrylic
  • A failed DIY repair that’s discoloured or lifting
  • Chips caused by builders
  • A chipped rim or side

Questions to ask before booking

  • What happens if the damage is worse than the pictures show
  • A fixed price, and whether VAT is included
  • What the guarantee covers, and for how long
  • Whether there are any call-out or travel charges

How to care for the repair

Much of the damage we repair could have been avoided. A few tips:

  • Clean with warm water and a mild detergent
  • Keep metal cans and razors off the surface
  • Don’t leave a fresh chip for long
  • Protect the bath with a towel when doing jobs nearby

For the first few days, keep heavy bottles off the repaired spot. After that, normal gentle cleaning is fine.

A chip on a metal bath shouldn’t be left. Once water reaches the metal, rust begins, and a rust spot is a bigger repair than a clean chip.

How it works

On the day, we arrive at the time we have agreed, cover the area with dust sheets and masking, and set to work. The job generally takes a morning or an afternoon. We tidy up before we leave and tell you when it’s ready to use.

  1. We clean the area and remove any loose enamel or rust.
  2. Next we fill the damage and sand it smooth and level.
  3. We mix the colour on the day to match your bath’s exact shade.
  4. Finish coats go on, then the repair is polished to blend in.
  5. Once it has cured, generally by the following day, the bath is ready to use.

How to prepare

  • Let us know about parking or access
  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area

Landlord and trade work in Broomholm

Hospitality businesses cannot afford rooms out of action for long, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We can work around your bookings.

Repairs by material

Cast iron

A cast iron bath is heavy enough that most people never want to move it. 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, and frequently freestanding. Chips and scratches can be filled and colour matched, in much the same way.

Broomholm: your questions answered

Can you repair something that’s been repaired before?

Yes, we frequently do. Removing the old work can add time, and that’s in the quote.

Is it messy?

Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we leave the room clean.

Is my repair covered?

All our work carries our one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.

Do you do work for letting agents?

Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as homeowners.

Can you fix rust around the plughole?

Yes. We take out the rust and any loose enamel, fill the area, then colour-match the finish.

Is it OK to have pets in the house?

Keep pets and children away from the work area on the day, so the repair isn’t disturbed while it cures.

Are there extra charges for Broomholm?

We don’t add a call-out fee. The fixed quote covers the visit and the work.

What happens once I’ve sent pictures?

We review the photos and send a fixed quote and the next dates we have.

Prices and what affects them

Repairs from £95. Each job gets its own fixed price. These are the things that affect it:

  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • What the surface is made of
  • What kind of damage it is
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out

Set against the cost of replacement, repairing generally costs far less, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

Getting a price from photos

Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what we need:

  • Details of any past repairs
  • Where you are, by postcode
  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale

Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: photograph the damage, then the entire bath, add your postcode and send them to us. You’ll get a fixed price, not an estimate.

Can I fix it myself?

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, 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 is not prepared the repair will not last.

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. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.

Honest limits

A few problems are outside what a surface repair can do:

  • Flexing caused by a failed cradle or loose feet
  • Leaking fittings, which need a plumber
  • A whole bath that’s dull or worn, where a full re-enamel is the better fix

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