Rental properties take more wear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.
If you manage property in Brydekirk, we will quote for several properties at once. Send photos for each one and we will come back with a combined price.
About our bath repair in Brydekirk
We repair just the damaged spot and colour-match it to the bath, which costs far less than replacing a fitted bath. You can typically use the bath the day after. Common call-outs are for chips caused by builders and impact holes in acrylic, on pressed steel enamel, acrylic and cast iron enamel.
The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If there’s a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it.

Signs you need bath repair in Brydekirk
Dropped items cause the majority of chips, and building work is a common culprit. Cracks in acrylic have a different cause: poor support underneath, so the bath flexes when it’s full.
Signs it’s time to call us include:
- A hole punched through by something heavy
- Rusty patches near the plughole
- Cracks in an acrylic bath
- Chips on the rim or sides

Brydekirk: your questions answered
Can a cracked acrylic bath be fixed?
Frequently, 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 picture.
Can I get a quote without a visit?
Typically, yes. Clear photos let us give you a fixed quote without visiting.
Do you do work for letting agents?
Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as homeowners.
Is the work guaranteed?
All our work carries a one-year guarantee. We will explain what it covers when we quote.
Can you match an avocado or pink bath?
Yes. We mix the colour on the day to match, including pastel and older colours.
When can I have a bath again?
Normally the next day. We confirm the time before we leave.
Are there extra charges for Brydekirk?
There is no separate call-out charge. Your fixed quote includes everything.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
Normally, when the rest is in good condition. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. We’ll tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.
Should I try a DIY kit first?
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, then guarantee it for a year.

How the visit works
Here’s how a visit normally runs: we arrive on time, sheet and mask the area around the job, do the job and tidy away. Plan for a few hours, depending on the damage from start to finish. Before leaving, we tell you how long to leave it and what to avoid for the first few days.
- We start by cleaning the damage and taking out loose enamel and rust.
- The chip or crack is filled, then sanded level with the bath.
- We tint the finish on the day to suit your bath’s shade of white or colour.
- We apply the finish coats and polish the repair so it blends in.
- The repair is left to cure, and most baths can be used the day after.
Before we arrive

- Keep a parking space free if you can
- Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area

What your bath is made of matters
Pressed steel
Steel baths and trays have a thin metal body under the enamel. Exposed steel rusts quickly, so we treat and seal the metal before filling.
Cast iron
Cast iron baths are thick and very strong, finished with fired enamel. Chips can rust if left, but the body of the bath lasts a very long time, which makes it well worth repairing.
Looking after it afterwards
It’s all simple stuff, just a few sensible habits:
- Make sure an acrylic bath is firm underfoot
- Don’t leave a fresh chip for long
- Don’t scrub with anything abrasive
- Rinse it down after each bath
Clean with mild, non-abrasive cleaners and try not to drop heavy bottles on the repair. Deal with new chips early, before rust can start.
Rust spreads under enamel faster than most people expect. A chip the size of a fingernail can become a much larger patch if it’s left for months, so it pays to deal with it early.

When we would advise against a repair
We’ll always be straight with you, so here’s what a repair won’t do:
- A bath that flexes because its feet or cradle have failed (that needs fixing first)
- A bath worn all over, where resurfacing makes more sense
- Water coming from the waste or taps rather than the bath
Send us pictures and we will tell you honestly.
