About our bath repair in Aberllynfi

Most of our bath repairs take a few hours, and you can generally bathe again the following day. There is no need to book a plumber or tiler, because the bath doesn’t move. Whether it’s chips on the rim or sides and a kit repair that didn’t last, we can help, on pressed steel enamel, roll-top & freestanding and acrylic alike.

Every job is backed for twelve months in Aberllynfi and everywhere else. We return to put right any problem with the work.

The process

Once we are through the door, the aim is to do the job without disturbing the rest of your home. We mask off everything nearby, the work takes a few hours, depending on what we find, and we finish with a tidy-up and a look at the finished work together.

  1. Dust sheets and masking go down around the bath.
  2. We clean, key and degrease the damage.
  3. Filler goes in and is sanded flush once it has set.
  4. We match both the colour and the shine.
  5. We tidy up and tell you when the bath can be used, normally the day after.

Preparing for the visit

  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift

Prices and what affects them

Repairs from £95. You will know the full cost before you book. We look at:

  • How hard the colour is to match
  • The material
  • How much damage there is
  • Doing more than one item at once

No two jobs are quite the same, so we price each one individually. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all play a part, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

Quotes from your pictures

Most quotes are done from pictures alone. To help us price it:

  • The material, if you know it
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • A wider photo showing the entire bath

Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us pictures through the quote form. With one close-up and one wider picture, we can give you a fixed price without visiting.

Repair or replace: which is better?

Replacing a bath rarely stops at the bath: the tiles sitting on the rim tend to break, a new panel is often needed, and the plumbing has to be disconnected and refitted. A repair skips all of it. Our bath repair starts from £95. Instead of hourly rates, we fix the price before we start. Damage, material and access decide it, and doing several items at once reduces it.

Questions from Aberllynfi

Is there any odour?

Some materials have a smell while they’re applied, so we ventilate the room. It fades as everything cures.

What does bath repair cost?

Repairs from £95. Because every job differs, we price from photos. You know the full cost before anything is booked.

Is there a call-out fee?

We don’t add a call-out fee. The fixed quote covers the visit and the work.

What happens after I send pictures?

We check the damage, the material and your postcode, then reply with a quote.

Can you redo someone else’s repair?

Generally, yes. Let us know what was used before and we will plan for it.

Do you come to Aberllynfi?

We do. We send a technician to Aberllynfi for every job, and the price is the same as everywhere else.

How quickly can you book me in?

That depends on our diary for your area. We will offer you dates when we send your quote.

Will it make a mess?

Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and we clean up when we’ve finished.

Can I fix it myself?

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is normally cheaper.

A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, a professional repair is worth it.

How to care for the repair

Most damage we see is avoidable. These habits help:

  • Keep metal cans and razors off the surface
  • Stick to mild cleaners and a soft cloth
  • Protect the bath with a towel when doing jobs nearby
  • Get any new chip repaired before it rusts

In the first few days, avoid putting weight or bottles on the repair. After that, normal gentle cleaning is fine.

Until we visit, a strip of waterproof tape over the damage helps, so water cannot get in. Take it off before we arrive.

Honest limits

A repair is not right for every job, including:

  • A bath worn all over, where resurfacing makes more sense
  • Acrylic cracks with no access behind them
  • A steel bath rusted through

If in doubt, send pictures and we will say what we think before booking.

Surfaces we repair

  • Acrylic
  • Whirlpool & spa baths
  • Roll-top & freestanding
  • Pressed steel enamel
  • Cast iron enamel

What we’re called out for in Aberllynfi

Rust usually starts where water sits, by the plughole, beneath dripping taps or in an unrepaired chip. Once water reaches the steel or iron, rust spreads under the enamel.

You may need us if you’ve spotted any of these:

  • Damage beneath the taps
  • A kit repair that didn’t last
  • A hole punched through by something heavy
  • Scuffs and scratches in the surface

Before you book anyone

  • What prep work is covered
  • How your room will be protected
  • A fixed price, and whether VAT is included
  • How the colour is matched
