How we handle bath repair in Abercregan
You do not need a new bath because of a chip. We fill the damage, shape it to the curve of the bath and refinish it, with the colour mixed on site so the repair is hard to spot. Whether it’s chips under the taps and rust by the waste and overflow, we can help, whatever the material.
We stand behind the work with a one-year guarantee.

Abercregan questions
How soon can you come?
That depends on our diary for your area. We will offer you dates when we send your quote.
Can you repair a failed DIY repair?
Yes, we do this often. The old material comes out, any rust is treated, then we repair it properly.
Will you leave a mess?
No. The work area is masked and covered, and we take our waste away with us.
Can you price it without visiting?
Yes, almost always. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed price.
Is there a guarantee?
Yes, for a year. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.
What happens if you find more damage?
We stop, show you and agree any change before carrying on. You will not be charged for anything you haven’t agreed.
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
In most cases. We remove the old repair before doing a new one, so mention it when you send photos.
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
We can work for tenants, landlords or agents. Just ensure the landlord agrees.
Work for landlords and builders
We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, fixing chips and scratches before handover. We’re CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.
Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.
Repairs by material
Cast iron
A cast iron bath is heavy enough that most people never want to move it. The enamel is the part that wears or chips, and that’s the part we put right.
Composite and resin
Composite baths are dense and solid, and often freestanding. Chips and scratches can be filled and colour-matched, in much the same way.
Looking after it afterwards
Simple care helps the repair last. Our advice:
- If an acrylic bath flexes, have its feet adjusted
- Cover the bath during DIY or decorating
- A dripping tap stains enamel, so fix it early
- Do not scrub with anything abrasive
Treat the repaired area like the rest of the bath: a soft cloth and washing-up liquid is all it needs. Avoid scourers and gritty cream cleaners.
If an acrylic bath has a crack, stop showering in it until it’s repaired. Every use opens the crack a little more, and water can get through to the floor below.
Signs you need bath repair in Abercregan
Acrylic baths that crack nearly always have a support problem. Legs that are not adjusted, a missing cradle or a soft floor let the bath move until the acrylic gives way.
The most common problems we are called about are:
- Chips on the rim or sides
- Hairline or through cracks in acrylic
- Rusty patches near the plughole
- Snagging damage from a refit
Before you book anyone
- How soon you can use it again
- Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT
- What prep work is covered
- Whether the price covers travel
Why repair rather than replace?
People frequently assume a cracked or chipped bath has to come out. Generally it doesn’t: a proper repair gives it years more use, and costs far less than the disruption of a replacement. Prices start from £95. No two jobs are quite the same, so each one is priced on its own. The size and type of damage, the material and access all play a part, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.
Why book with us
- Honest advice, even when it means no job
- Fixed prices from your photos
- Same prices wherever you are
- Colour-matched on site

DIY kit or professional repair?
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, then guarantee it for a year.
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.
How the visit works
From the moment we arrive, the aim is to do the job without disturbing the rest of your home. Surfaces nearby are masked off, the job takes a few hours, depending on what we find, and we finish by cleaning up and talking you through the result.
- We start by cleaning the damage and taking out loose enamel and rust.
- We fill the damage and sand it flush with the surrounding surface.
- 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 following day.
Before we arrive
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
- Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
How to get a price
