Bath repair in The Broad, done in place
A repair fixes just the damaged area and blends it into the rest of the bath, which costs far less than replacing a fitted bath and the tiles around it. Most baths can be used again the following day. Common call-outs are for chips under the taps and hairline or through cracks in acrylic, on acrylic, roll-top & freestanding and cast iron enamel.
Every repair is covered by a one-year guarantee.

What we do, step by step
We work cleanly and quietly. We protect the area first, then the work takes a few hours. Before we leave, we explain the curing time and the aftercare.
- We start by looking at the damage and confirming the plan with you.
- Loose enamel, rust and dirt are removed so the repair can bond.
- The damage is filled in layers and shaped to the curve of the bath.
- We tint the finish by hand to match the bath.
- The repair is polished to the same gloss as the bath and left to cure.
How to prepare
- Let us know which floor the room is on
- Point us to the nearest place to park
- Make sure the room can be ventilated
How to get a price
Send us pictures of the damage and a wider shot of the entire item, and tell us you’re in The Broad, and we will reply with a fixed price.
Advice
Repairs by material
Cast iron
A cast iron bath is heavy enough that most people never want to move it. Only the enamel surface wears or chips, and that’s the part we put right.
Pressed steel
Pressed steel is thinner and lighter, with an enamel finish like cast iron. Chips rust quickly on steel, especially around the waste, so repair chips early.

Do you need bath repair in The Broad?
Glass and heavy bottles cause more chips than anything else. Taps and wastes cause problems too: water sits around them, and any chip there soon rusts.
Keep an eye out for these signs:
- Hairline or through cracks in acrylic
- Chips along the edge of the bath
- An old repair that has yellowed or come loose
- A chip where the taps sit
Questions to ask before you book
- What happens if the damage is worse than the photos show
- Who will actually do the work
- What protection goes down before work starts
- How the colour is matched
How to look after the repair
Simple care helps the repair last. We recommend:
- Don’t leave razors or cans standing in the bath
- Use a soft cloth and washing-up liquid for everyday cleaning
- Get a dripping tap fixed promptly
- Rinse the bath after use, especially in hard water areas
Give the repair the full curing time we recommend before running a bath. From then on, mild cleaning is all it needs.
Tape over a fresh chip or crack until it’s repaired, to keep water out. Take it off before we arrive.
What affects the price in The Broad
Repairs from £95. There’s no area surcharge for The Broad. The price reflects:
- How many items we do on one visit
- How easy the damage is to reach
- The type of damage
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
A few things move the price: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.
How to get a fixed price
Good photos mean an accurate price. Here’s what we find most useful:
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
Call 0345 017 0787 or use the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the entire bath, we can give you a fixed quote.
Repairing versus replacing in The Broad
Cast iron baths especially are worth keeping: getting one out, particularly from an upstairs bathroom, is a big job, and a like-for-like replacement can be expensive. Repairing it leaves it where it is. Our bath repair starts from £95. Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is generally a fraction of the price, because there’s no removal, plumbing or making good. The quote lists exactly what you are paying for.

What a repair can’t fix
We’d rather lose a job than do one that will not last, so here’s what a repair can’t put right:
- A whole bath that is dull or worn, where a full re-enamel is the better fix
- A bath that flexes because its feet or cradle have failed (that needs fixing first)
- Cracks in parts of an acrylic bath we cannot get to from below

The Broad: your questions answered
What happens next?
You get a fixed price and available dates. If we need another angle, we’ll ask.
What happens if you find more damage?
The price is fixed for what the photos show. Anything extra is discussed before we begin.
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children.
Is a bath repair durable?
Yes, if it’s prepared properly and the bath is sound. It’s covered by our one-year guarantee.
Which areas do you work in?
We work UK-wide. Our prices are the same everywhere.
Is there any odour?
A little, depending on the job. Open windows and an extractor fan help, and it soon fades.
Is a holed acrylic bath repairable?
Generally, yes, if we can reach behind it. The hole is backed, filled and refinished to match.
Can you fix rust around the plughole?
Yes. We take out the rust and any loose enamel, seal and fill the area, then colour-match the finish.

DIY repairs versus a professional job
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.
