Bath chip & crack repair in Abercwmboi, Rhondda Cynon Taff
We travel to Abercwmboi for chip and crack repairs to enamel, acrylic and cast iron baths. Everything is done in place, and the work is guaranteed.
- Repairs from £95
- An old repair that has yellowed or come loose
- Rust spots around the plughole
Keeping it looking good
Good habits make a big difference to how long a repair lasts:
- A dripping tap stains enamel, so fix it early
- Put a towel in the bath if you are working above it
- Rinse it down after each bath
- Make sure an acrylic bath is firm underfoot
Keep metal objects like razors and cans off the surface, because they can mark the enamel. A dripping tap should be fixed early, too.
Tape over a fresh chip or crack until it’s repaired, to keep water out. Remove it before the repair.
About our bath repair in Abercwmboi
A repair fixes just the damaged area and blends it into the rest of the bath, which is far cheaper than replacing a fitted bath and the tiles around it. Most baths can be used again the day after. We’re frequently asked to fix cracks in an acrylic bath and a kit repair that didn’t last, on acrylic, whirlpool & spa baths and roll-top & freestanding.
We stand behind the work with a one-year guarantee, so you’re covered after the visit.

What your bath is made of matters
Acrylic
An acrylic bath is a moulded sheet strengthened from below. They don’t rust, but they can crack, scratch or be holed, and a crack only stays repaired if it’s supported underneath.
Composite and resin
Stone resin and composite baths are heavy and solid. Chips and scratches can be filled and colour matched, in much the same way.
What bath repair costs
Repairs from £95. We do not charge extra for travel to Abercwmboi. The price comes down to:
- Doing more than one item at once
- What kind of damage it is
- How easy the damage is to reach
- The colour and finish to match
Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is usually a fraction of the price, because there’s no removal, plumbing or making good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

Common questions in Abercwmboi
Can you repair a crack in an acrylic bath?
In most cases. We reinforce the crack from behind, then fill and refinish the front, so access behind the panel is important.
Do you do work for letting agents?
Yes. We carry out repairs for homeowners, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses across Rhondda Cynon Taff.
Will it make a mess?
No. The work area is masked and covered, and we leave the room clean.
Do I have to be there?
Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. After that, you can carry on with your day.
What happens if you find more damage?
We’ll show you and explain before doing anything extra. Nothing extra is done without your say-so.
When can you do it?
It depends on the time of year and where you are. Send photos with your postcode and we’ll reply with the earliest dates.
Do you cover the entire of Rhondda Cynon Taff?
We work UK-wide. Our prices are the same everywhere.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
In most cases, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. If it isn’t worth repairing, we’ll tell you.
