How we handle bath repair in Brotherton
We repair enamelled steel, cast iron and acrylic baths. The method changes with the material: metal baths need any rust dealt with first, and acrylic cracks need support from behind. Common call-outs are for a hole punched through by something heavy and hairline or through cracks in acrylic, in pressed steel enamel, cast iron enamel and acrylic.
Whatever the size of the job, you get the same one-year guarantee in Brotherton and across Wakefield.

Should I try a DIY kit first?
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it does not stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, make sure the area is clean and completely dry, and give it the full curing time. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.
Repairing versus replacing in Brotherton
When the bath is otherwise sound, repairing beats replacing. It’s quicker, cheaper and far less disruptive, and the bathroom stays as it is. If the entire surface is worn, re-enamelling may make more sense, and we will tell you. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. We do not add extras on the day. What we quote from your photos is what you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.

Different materials, different repairs
Composite and resin
Stone resin and composite baths are heavy and solid, and often freestanding. Chips and scratches can be filled and colour matched, in much the same way.
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.

Keeping it looking good
Aftercare is simple:
- Do not leave a fresh chip for long
- Ensure an acrylic bath is firm underfoot
- Keep abrasive pads and gritty cleaners away from the bath
- Put a towel in the bath if you’re working above it
Treat the repaired area like the rest of the bath: a soft cloth and washing-up liquid is all it needs. Keep scouring pads and gritty cleaners away from it.
Tape over a fresh chip or crack until it’s repaired, to keep water out. Remove it before the repair.
Work for landlords and builders
We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Brotherton as well as homeowners. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it costs much less than replacing.
We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, putting right damage done during fitting so nothing needs replacing. We are CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.
Honest limits
In fairness, there are a few things a repair will not fix:
- Rust that has eaten right through a steel bath
- Cracks in acrylic we can’t reach from underneath
- A bath that moves underfoot, until its support is fixed
Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly.
Surfaces we repair
- Whirlpool & spa baths
- Roll-top & freestanding

What we’re called out for in Brotherton
Glass and heavy bottles cause more chips than anything else, with dropped shower heads close behind. Fittings cause damage too: water collects there, so chips nearby rust quickly.
Keep an eye out for these signs:
- Rusty patches near the plughole
- Chips along the edge of the bath
- Snagging damage from a refit
- Cracks in an acrylic bath

Questions from Brotherton
Do you work for landlords and businesses?

Will the repair show?

Can you quote from photos?
In nearly every case. We only ask to see it in person if the pictures cannot show what we need.
Will the repair last?
It should, as long as the bath is firm and the area was prepared well. It carries our one-year guarantee.
Is there a call-out fee?
There’s no separate call-out charge. Your fixed quote includes everything.
When can I have a bath again?
Normally within a day, depending on the repair.
