How we handle bath repair in High Brooms
Whatever the damage, the aim is the same: a smooth, solid repair that blends in. Proper preparation, careful filling and shaping, then colour and gloss matching so it sits flush with the rest of the bath. We work on whirlpool & spa baths, cast iron enamel and pressed steel enamel, and the jobs we see most are damage beneath the taps and deep scratches in acrylic.
We stand behind the work with a one-year guarantee, so you are covered after the visit.

Different materials, different repairs
Cast iron
Cast iron baths are so heavy that repairing in place makes obvious sense. The enamel is the part that wears or chips, and that’s what we repair.
Composite and resin
Stone resin and composite baths are heavy and solid, and often freestanding. Chips and scratches can be filled and colour-matched, just like other baths.
Common problems we fix in High Brooms
Heavy toiletries are the biggest single cause of chips, with dropped shower heads close behind. Fittings cause damage too: water sits around them, and any chip there soon rusts.
The things clients usually mention when they call are:
- Cracks in an acrylic bath
- A failed DIY repair that’s discoloured or lifting
- Scuffs and scratches in the surface
- Chips along the edge of the bath
What your quote should include
- Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price
- Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?
- How your room will be protected
- Aftercare advice
Can I fix it myself?
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, and the work is guaranteed.
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.
When a repair isn’t the answer
Not everything can be repaired, and we will tell you before we start. Repairs will not solve:
- Water coming from the waste or taps rather than the bath
- Rust that has eaten right through a steel bath
- Flexing caused by a failed cradle or loose feet
If in doubt, send pictures and we will say what we think before booking.

What bath repair costs
Prices start from £95. Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we take into account:
- The type of damage
- The colour and finish to match
- Access to the area
- The material and finish
A repair usually costs much less than people expect, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Send pictures and we’ll give you the exact figure.
Quotes from your photos
Phone pictures are fine, there is no need for anything special. Just make sure we can see:
- One picture of the entire bath
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- What it’s made of, if you know
- Where you are, by postcode
To get a price, send a couple of pictures through our quote form or call us. We’ll say right away whether it can be repaired.
Keeping it looking good
Simple care helps the repair last. Our advice:
- Do not leave a fresh chip for long
- Use a soft cloth and washing-up liquid for everyday cleaning
- Fix dripping taps early to stop staining and limescale
- If an acrylic bath flexes, have its feet adjusted
For the first few days, keep heavy bottles off the repaired spot. After that, normal gentle cleaning is fine without abrasive products.
Stop using the bath if a crack lets water through. Water under the bath can damage the floor and the ceiling below.
The process
We agree an arrival time beforehand. Once we are there, the work takes a few hours in most cases. We leave the room clean and you’ll know when it can be used.
- We protect the bath and the floor around it.
- We clean, key and degrease the damage.
- Filler goes in and is sanded flush once it has set.
- We match both the colour and the shine.
- We clear up and give you the curing time, normally until the following day.
Preparing for the visit
- Open a window if you can
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
- Keep a parking space free if you can

You do not need a survey visit. Nearly every job can be priced from pictures: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed price.

Questions from High Brooms
Is there a guarantee?
Yes: twelve months. If there’s a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.
Can you fix rust around the plughole?
Yes, very frequently. The rust is cut back to clean metal and sealed before we fill and finish it.
Do the materials smell?
Some materials have a smell while they’re applied, which is why we ventilate. It fades as everything cures.
Will the repair last?
Done properly, a repair lasts for years, and ours come with a one-year guarantee. Gentle cleaning helps.
Will you leave a mess?
Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we take our waste away with us.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
Typically, when the rest is in good condition. A repair avoids removal and making good. If replacing would be better, we’ll say so.
Is a holed acrylic bath repairable?
Typically, yes, if we can reach behind it. The hole is backed, filled and refinished to match.
What happens once I’ve sent pictures?
We look at the photos and reply with a fixed price and some dates. If anything’s unclear, we will ask for another photo.
