Specialist Bath Resurfacing & Enamel Restoration for Bromley Properties
Bath Fixer Bromley provide specialist bath repair, resurfacing, and enamel restoration across the London Borough of Bromley. Our skilled technicians handle everything from minor chip repairs on acrylic panels to complete enamel restoration on original cast iron baths — offering a practical, affordable alternative to ripping out and replacing your entire bath.
Every job begins with a detailed inspection of the damage and the bath material. A single chip from a dropped showerhead requires a different approach to widespread enamel deterioration on a bath that has seen fifty years of daily use. Acrylic, pressed steel, cast iron, stone resin, and fibreglass surfaces each demand specific preparation and finishing techniques, and Bath Fixer Bromley have the training and equipment to work across all of them.
The difference between Bath Fixer and other surface repair firms working in Bromley lies in our two-stage bonding system. Most companies apply one coat of primer before spraying the new enamel. We apply two separate bonding agents, each cured with controlled heat, to build a far stronger adhesion between the original surface and the new coating. The result is a finish that holds up to daily wear, resists peeling and yellowing, and lasts for years rather than months.
Beyond baths, we also restore sinks, basins, shower trays, ceramic tile surfaces, uPVC frames, granite worktops, and solid surface fixtures. If a hard surface in your Bromley property is chipped, cracked, scratched, or visibly worn — chances are Bath Fixer Bromley can repair it without the expense and upheaval of a full replacement.
Nearby Areas We Serve: The same types of bath repair challenges we address in Bromley are common across neighbouring boroughs. Property owners in Croydon and Sutton encounter comparable issues with ageing enamel, impact damage, and worn bath surfaces. See our area-specific guides for detailed information about your location.
Bath Fixer Bromley use a proprietary two-stage bonding system that delivers a stronger, longer-lasting finish than standard single-primer methods.

Our dual bonding agent system paired with infrared curing delivers a hard-wearing, factory-standard surface that resists chipping, peeling, and staining. Every completed repair is backed by a written guarantee for your peace of mind.

Bromley's residential landscape is one of the most varied in outer London. The borough stretches from the leafy Victorian and Edwardian streets around Bromley South and Shortlands, through the substantial 1930s detached and semi-detached housing of Bickley and Chislehurst, to the post-war estates and modern apartment blocks of Penge, Anerley, and the Cray Valley. Each neighbourhood brings a different generation of bathroom fixtures and a distinct set of repair requirements.
The Victorian and Edwardian properties closer to Bromley town centre often retain their original cast iron baths — heavy, well-built fixtures with enamel surfaces that have developed chips, rust patches, and crazing after more than a century of use. The 1930s homes across Bickley, Petts Wood, and Hayes are more likely to have pressed steel baths with factory enamel that has dulled, thinned, or cracked over the decades. Newer builds and recently renovated bathrooms typically feature acrylic baths vulnerable to impact cracks, scratches, and stress fractures around the edges.
Bath Fixer Bromley have built a strong reputation in the borough by understanding these distinctions and tailoring every repair accordingly. We never apply a generic treatment — we assess the material, evaluate the damage, and select the right preparation, bonding, and finishing approach for the surface in front of us. That attention to detail separates a repair that lasts from one that fails.
Real examples of restoration work completed by Bath Fixer across the Bromley borough
A homeowner in a 1905 Edwardian semi-detached property in Shortlands contacted us about their original cast iron bath. The enamel had crazed extensively across the base and sides, with three deep chips along the rim where tiles had been dropped during a partial bathroom refurbishment years earlier. Rust stains were bleeding through two of the chips, and the overall surface had turned from white to a patchy yellow-grey. A bathroom fitter had quoted over £3,000 to remove the cast iron bath, repair the surrounding tilework, and install a modern acrylic replacement.
Bath Fixer Bromley treated the rust-affected chips with a specialist converter to neutralise the corrosion, then filled and reshaped each damaged area to restore the original profile. The entire bath was abraded, degreased, and prepared for our dual bonding agent application. Two coats of bright white enamel were sprayed and infrared cured, followed by a thorough polish and new perimeter sealant.
The bath was restored to a smooth, bright white finish with no trace of the crazing, chips, or rust damage. The homeowner preserved a high-quality original fixture, saved over £2,500 compared to full replacement, and avoided the disruption of a multi-day bathroom refit. The work was completed in a single visit with a written guarantee.
A landlord managing a two-bedroom flat in Petts Wood needed an urgent repair to a cracked acrylic bath before a new tenancy began. The previous tenant had left a deep impact fracture near the plug hole, with hairline cracks radiating outward along the base. The bath was leaking slightly through the fracture, and the landlord needed the problem resolved within days to avoid delaying the incoming tenant. Replacing the bath and repairing the surrounding floor and panels was quoted at over £1,800.
We stabilised the hairline cracks using a structural bonding compound to prevent any further spread, then filled the deep fracture with a high-adhesion filler engineered for acrylic surfaces. The repaired area was sanded flush, colour-matched to the surrounding white acrylic, and sealed with a protective topcoat cured on site using our infrared system.
The repair was completed in under three hours. The leak was eliminated, the surface showed no visible evidence of the fracture, and the landlord was able to proceed with the new tenancy on schedule. The total cost was less than a quarter of the replacement quote, and the work was backed by a written guarantee from Bath Fixer Bromley.
Feedback from homeowners and landlords who have used Bath Fixer in Bromley
"Excellent work restoring the cast iron bath in our Edwardian house near Bromley South. The technician took real care protecting the bathroom before starting, explained each step clearly, and the finished result is outstanding — the bath looks better than it has in thirty years. Very impressed with Bath Fixer."
"Called Bath Fixer about a cracked acrylic bath in our rental flat in Beckenham. They responded quickly, scheduled the repair within days, and the technician did a brilliant job. The tenant couldn't believe it was the same bath. Great communication throughout and a tidy, professional finish."
"Our 1930s pressed steel bath had deep chips along the rim and the enamel was thinning badly. Bath Fixer resurfaced the entire tub in one visit — the colour match is spot on and the surface feels completely smooth and new. Far better than replacing the whole thing. Would absolutely recommend them."
Common situations where Bath Fixer Bromley can help
You have just purchased a property in Bromley and the bathroom needs refreshing. Rather than committing to a full bathroom renovation, a professional resurfacing restores the existing bath to like-new condition at a fraction of the cost and disruption.
A dropped showerhead, tile, or heavy bottle has left a visible chip or crack in your bath surface. If left untreated, moisture can seep beneath the damaged area and cause further deterioration. A prompt repair prevents the problem from spreading.
You manage a rental property in Bromley and need the bathroom looking presentable between tenancies. Bath Fixer Bromley provide fast-turnaround repairs that bring worn or damaged baths back to letting standard without replacing the unit.
Rust spots are bleeding through the enamel on an older cast iron or pressed steel bath, and hard water has left stubborn limescale marks that no amount of cleaning can shift. Professional resurfacing eliminates these blemishes entirely and seals the surface against future staining.
A previous attempt with a shop-bought repair kit has left a rough, discoloured patch that looks worse than the original damage. Bath Fixer Bromley regularly strip back failed DIY repairs and restore the surface properly using professional materials and techniques.
You are putting your Bromley property on the market and a tired-looking bathroom could hold back the sale price. A professional bath resurfacing is one of the most cost-effective improvements you can make — delivering a visible upgrade for a modest outlay.
Common questions answered by Bath Fixer Bromley
Professional resurfacing typically costs between forty and seventy per cent less than a full bath replacement. For Bromley properties with original cast iron or pressed steel baths, the existing fixture is often of superior quality to any modern replacement. Resurfacing preserves that quality, avoids the need to disconnect plumbing, protects surrounding tiling, and eliminates skip hire and waste removal. Most resurfacing appointments are completed within a single day.
Yes. Our professional coating system works on bathtubs, washbasins, pedestals, and ceramic tile surrounds. We can colour-match your existing suite or change the colour entirely in one appointment. The only item we recommend replacing instead of refinishing is the toilet — daily use of abrasive cleaning products and brushes will gradually degrade a refinished surface on a toilet bowl.
If the surrounding enamel is in reasonable condition, a single chip or scratch can absolutely be repaired on its own. We frequently visit properties across Bromley, Beckenham, and Petts Wood to fix isolated damage from dropped items. Our colour-matching technology ensures the repaired spot blends invisibly. Full resurfacing is only recommended when the overall surface has deteriorated beyond the scope of localised treatment.
A complete resurfacing visit typically takes four to six hours. This covers thorough surface preparation, all necessary chip and crack repairs, the application of our dual bonding agent system, professional enamel spraying, infrared curing, and final polishing. You can use the bath carefully after twenty-four hours, with full cure strength reached within forty-eight hours.
In our experience, a significant proportion of the repairs we carry out across Bromley involve correcting the results of failed DIY kits. The consumer-grade materials in these kits lack the adhesion and durability of professional coatings. They frequently produce a visible patch, a rough or uneven texture, or a finish that yellows and peels within weeks. A professional repair by Bath Fixer Bromley costs more upfront but delivers a result that endures for years.
Bath Fixer covers the entire London Borough of Bromley and surrounding areas. We regularly attend properties in Bromley town centre, Beckenham, Chislehurst, Orpington, Petts Wood, Shortlands, Hayes, West Wickham, Keston, and Biggin Hill. We also serve neighbouring boroughs including Croydon, Lewisham, Greenwich, and Sutton.

Understanding the local housing market and how it shapes bath repair demand in Bromley
Bromley is the largest London borough by area and one of the most sought-after outer London locations for families and professionals. Property values range from approximately £300,000 for a two-bedroom flat in Penge or Anerley to well over £1.5 million for a detached Edwardian or 1930s family home in Bickley, Chislehurst, or Shortlands. This broad price spectrum reflects the diversity of the housing stock — and the bathroom fixtures inside it.
At the higher end of the market, homeowners are increasingly choosing to restore rather than replace their original bathroom fittings. A well-maintained cast iron bath in a period Bromley property is a desirable feature that adds character and value. Professional resurfacing allows these fixtures to be preserved in excellent condition without the upheaval and cost of full replacement.
For landlords and letting agents across the borough — particularly in the higher-density rental areas around Bromley North, Beckenham, and Crystal Palace — bath repair and resurfacing is a practical tool for maintaining property standards between tenancies. A professional repair costs a fraction of a replacement, can be completed in a single day, and restores the bath to a condition that satisfies both incoming tenants and inventory checks.
Bath Fixer Bromley understand the local market and the expectations of Bromley property owners. Whether the job involves restoring a period cast iron bath in a conservation area home, resurfacing a chipped acrylic tub in a rental flat, or refinishing a complete bathroom suite ahead of a property sale, we deliver the same professional standard of work on every appointment.
