How to care for the repair
Once the work has cured, treat it gently:
- Get a dripping tap fixed promptly
- Give the bath a quick rinse after use
- Protect the bath with a towel when doing jobs nearby
- Use a soft cloth and washing-up liquid for everyday cleaning
Clean with mild, non-abrasive cleaners and avoid dropping heavy items on the repaired area. Deal with new chips early, before rust sets in.
Rust under enamel spreads surprisingly quickly. Left for months, a small chip can grow into a large rust patch, so it pays to deal with it early.
Bath repair in Great Broughton without replacing anything
We repair just the damaged spot and colour-match it to the bath, which is far cheaper than replacing a fitted bath and the tiles around it. You can generally use the bath the next day. We regularly repair roll-top & freestanding, cast iron enamel and pressed steel enamel, and the jobs we see most are an old repair that has yellowed or come loose and chips on the rim or sides.
You’re covered for a year from the day of the repair. Just call us if there’s a problem and we will sort it.

Can I fix it myself?
If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is normally the cheaper route.
Materials and what they mean for the repair
Pressed steel
Steel baths are lighter than cast iron, but have a similar enamel surface. Chips rust quickly on steel, especially around the waste, so early repairs matter.
Acrylic
Acrylic feels warm and is light, but it needs firm support underneath. Repairs to cracks are reinforced from the back.
What happens on the day
Expect a friendly, tidy visit. We confirm the time with you beforehand, protect the area, and get on with the job, which normally takes a morning or an afternoon. If we find something your photos didn’t show, we’ll explain it before carrying on.
- We clean the area and remove any loose enamel or rust.
- Next we fill the damage and sand it smooth and level.
- We mix the colour on the day to match your bath’s exact shade.
- Finish coats go on, then the repair is polished to blend in.
- We leave it to cure; you can typically use the bath the following day.
Preparing for the visit
- Open a window if you can
- Let us know if it has been repaired before
- Let us know about parking or access

Related advice
Why repair rather than replace?
When the bath is otherwise sound, repairing beats replacing. It costs less, takes less time and causes far less upheaval, and the bathroom stays as it is. Where the whole surface is tired, we may suggest re-enamelling instead. Our bath repair starts from £95. The price reflects the work involved, not your postcode. You’ll see the full price before you book, with nothing added on the day.

Great Broughton questions
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.
Can you price it without visiting?
In nearly every case. If photos don’t show enough, we will ask for another angle.
Can you do more than one item on the same visit?
Yes. Doing several items on one visit typically costs less than separate visits. Send photos of everything you’d like done.
Are there extra charges for Great Broughton?
We do not add a call-out fee. Your fixed price includes everything.
Will the repair show?
On a glossy bath, you will struggle to find it. On older, dull enamel the repair can look glossier than the area around it.
What do you need from me?
A close-up, a wider photo and your postcode. After that, we just agree a date.
What happens after I send pictures?
We check the damage, the material and your postcode, then reply with a quote.
Is my repair covered?
Yes: twelve months. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.
Work for landlords and builders
We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Great Broughton as well as householders. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it generally costs far less than a refit.
Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets need rooms back in use quickly, so we keep visits short and tidy. We can work around your bookings.
