Bath repair at your home in Aberriw
It pays to repair bath damage while it’s small. Exposed metal on enamelled baths soon rusts, and on acrylic, a crack keeps spreading while the bath flexes. A repair stops both. We’re often asked to fix rust by the waste and overflow and snagging damage from a refit, across whirlpool & spa baths, pressed steel enamel and acrylic.
Every job is backed for twelve months, and the guarantee is the same wherever you live. We return to put right any problem with the work.

What we do, step by step
From the moment we arrive, we keep the work contained to the one room. We mask off everything nearby, the job takes two to three hours for most chips, depending on what we find, and we finish by cleaning up and talking you through the result.
- We start by looking at the damage and confirming the plan with you.
- Loose enamel, rust and dirt are removed so the repair can bond.
- We build up the filler in layers, shaping it to the bath.
- The colour is tinted by hand until it matches.
- Finally, it’s polished to match the shine and left to cure.
How to prepare
- Make sure the area is dry
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access

A quote takes minutes to ask for: take one close-up and one wider shot of the bath, include your postcode and send them over. What comes back is a fixed price, not a guess.
Advice
DIY repairs versus a professional job
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.
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.
When to call us in Aberriw
Heavy toiletries are the biggest single cause of chips, with dropped shower heads close behind. Fittings cause damage too: water sits around them, and any chip there soon rusts.
The most common problems we’re called about are:
- Scratches you can feel with a fingernail
- Chips on the rim or sides
- A kit repair that didn’t last
- Damage beneath the taps
What to look for in a quote
- What aftercare is recommended
- A fixed price, and whether VAT is included
- Whether the colour is mixed to match
- How your room will be protected
Keeping it looking good
It’s all simple stuff:
- Do not scrub with anything abrasive
- Check that an acrylic bath doesn’t move when you stand in it
- Have new chips seen to early
- Give the bath a quick rinse after use
Don’t leave razors, cans or hair grips in the bath, because they can mark the enamel. A dripping tap should be fixed early, too.
A small chip is a quick job. Leave them and they collect dirt, stain and, on metal baths, rust, so it’s worth getting them done early.
When a repair isn’t the answer
To be straight with you, some problems need a different fix:
- Cracks in acrylic we cannot reach from underneath
- A bath worn all over, where resurfacing makes more sense
- Leaks from the waste or overflow fittings (a plumber’s job)
Send us pictures and we will tell you honestly before booking.
Surfaces we repair
- Acrylic
- Cast iron enamel
- Whirlpool & spa baths
- Pressed steel enamel
- Roll-top & freestanding
Different materials, different repairs
Cast iron
Cast iron baths are so heavy that repairing in place makes obvious sense. Only the enamel surface wears or chips, and that is what we repair.
Composite and resin
Composite baths are dense and solid. Chips and scratches are filled and matched, in much the same way.

Questions from Aberriw
Is a bath repair permanent?
Yes, if it’s prepared properly and the bath is sound. It carries our one-year guarantee.
How soon can you come?
We’ll give you dates with your quote. If it’s urgent, say so and we will do what we can.
Something went through my bath. Can it be fixed?
Typically, yes, if we can reach behind it. We back the hole, fill it and refinish the surface.
Are you accredited?
We’re accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.
Can you price it without visiting?
Yes, almost always. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed quote.
Do I have to be there?
Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time we agree with you.
Is my repair covered?
Yes: twelve months. If there is a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.
Is a repair better than a new one?
Normally, when the rest is in good condition. A repair avoids removal and making good. We will tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.
