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, and we finish with a tidy-up and a look at the finished work together.
- First, we check the damage against your pictures and agree the plan.
- Loose enamel, rust and dirt are removed so the repair can bond.
- We build up the filler in layers, shaping it to 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.
Before we arrive
- Let us know if it has been repaired before
- Have a window or extractor fan available
- Tell us if there are stairs or a lift

A quote takes minutes to ask for: photograph the damage, then the whole bath, add your postcode and send them over. What comes back is a fixed price, not a guess.

What a repair cannot fix
Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:
- Leaking fittings, which need a plumber
- Metal that has corroded all the way through
- A bath that flexes because its feet or cradle have failed (that needs fixing first)
Not sure? Send pictures and we’ll give you a straight answer.
Surfaces we repair
- Whirlpool & spa baths
- Cast iron enamel
- Roll-top & freestanding
- Pressed steel enamel
- Acrylic
How to care for the repair
Looking after the surface is easy, and it makes a real difference:
- Have new chips seen to early
- Get a dripping tap fixed promptly
- Use a soft cloth and washing-up liquid for everyday cleaning
- Do not leave razors or cans standing in the bath
There’s nothing special to do after a repair, just sensible cleaning. Skip bleach and gritty creams and rinse after use.
A small chip is a quick job. Left alone, they stain and can rust, so it’s worth getting them done early.
What your bath is made of matters
Pressed steel
Steel baths and trays have a thin metal body under the enamel. Once a chip exposes it, rust follows quickly, so the metal is treated and sealed before the repair.
Acrylic
Acrylic is light and warm to the touch, but it needs firm support underneath. Cracks are strengthened from behind before the front is finished.
What affects the price in Abergavenny
Repairs from £95. You’ll know the full cost before booking. We look at:
- Access to the area
- Whether we combine several jobs
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- The type of damage
It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Send photos and you’ll get a fixed figure.
Getting a price from photos
Good photos mean an accurate price. Here’s what helps:
- What it’s made of, if you know
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- Natural light rather than flash
- Where you are, by postcode
The quickest way to a price is to send two or three pictures using our quote form or call us. We’ll tell you honestly whether it can be repaired.
Should you replace it?
Many people think a damaged bath means a new one. In most cases it doesn’t: a repair keeps the bath in service for years, without the cost and upheaval of replacing it. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. We charge the same wherever you are, with no extra for Abergavenny. The job itself decides the price: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.
