What a repair cannot fix
Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair won’t do:
- Acrylic cracks with no access behind them
- A bath that moves underfoot, until its support is fixed
- A whole bath that is dull or worn, where a full re-enamel is the better fix
Send us photos and we will tell you honestly before booking.
Materials we repair

When to call us in Brothertoft
A cracked acrylic bath normally wasn’t supported properly. Legs that are not adjusted, a missing cradle or a soft floor let the base flex until the acrylic gives way.
The things customers normally mention when they call are:
- Damage beneath the taps
- Hairline or through cracks in acrylic
- Holes from dropped items
- Damage done while the bathroom was being fitted
What your quote should include
- How long the guarantee is and what it covers
- How long it needs to cure
- Whether the price covers travel
- Whether they match the colour on site
What affects the price in Brothertoft
Prices start from £95. Each job gets its own fixed price. These are the things that affect it:
- How easy the damage is to reach
- Whether we combine several jobs
- What kind of damage it is
- How much damage there is
Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Photos let us give you the exact figure.
Quotes from your pictures
Good photos mean an accurate price. Here’s what helps:
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- A photo taken from further back
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
The quickest way to a price is to send two or three pictures through our quote form or call us. We’ll say right away if a repair is the right fix.
Work for landlords and builders
For anyone letting property in or around Brothertoft, we’ll quote for several properties at once. Send pictures for each one and we’ll price them together.
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.

DIY repairs versus a professional job
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: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, make sure the area is clean and completely dry, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.
Looking after it afterwards
After the repair has cured, a few habits help it last:
- Store metal items away from the bath
- Fix dripping taps early to stop staining and limescale
- Don’t leave a fresh chip for long
- Avoid scourers, wire wool and gritty cream cleaners
Care for the repair the same way as the bath: warm water, washing-up liquid and a soft cloth. Keep scouring pads and gritty cleaners away from it.
If water is getting through a crack, stop using the bath until it’s repaired. Water under the bath can damage the floor and the ceiling below.
The process
A typical visit goes like this: we arrive on time, sheet and mask the area around the job, carry out the work and tidy away. Allow two to three hours for most chips. Before we go, we’ll explain how long to leave it and how to look after it.
- We clean the area and remove any loose enamel or rust.
- The chip or crack is filled, then sanded level with the bath.
- The colour is mixed on the spot to match your bath.
- Finish coats go on, then the repair is polished to blend in.
- The repair is left to cure, and most baths can be used the day after.
Before we arrive
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
- Tell us about parking, stairs or access
- Make sure the area is dry
How to get a price
You do not need a survey visit. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote.
Advice
Why repair rather than replace?
Cast iron baths especially are worth keeping: they’re very heavy to remove, especially upstairs, and a like-for-like replacement can be expensive. Repairing it leaves it where it is. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Rather than charging by the hour, 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.

FAQs for Brothertoft
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.
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 photos.
Is there a guarantee?
Yes, for a year. If there is a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.
Will there be a smell?
There may be a mild smell during the work that clears as it cures.
Is a cracked acrylic bath repairable?
Frequently, yes, as long as we can get to the back of the crack to support it. Take off the bath panel and check, or send us a photo.
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
Yes, regularly. Removing the old work can add time, and that’s in the quote.
Will the repair show?
On a bath in good condition, a colour matched repair is very hard to spot. On older, dull enamel the repair can look glossier than the area around it.
Is a bath repair permanent?
It should, as long as the bath is firm and the area was prepared well. It carries our one-year guarantee.
