Bath Repair across Cardiff

How bath repair works in Cardiff

Repairing baths is what we do most. A chip by the taps, a crack in the base and a rust spot by the plughole are all repaired in place, usually in a single visit. We work on roll-top & freestanding, cast iron enamel and pressed steel enamel, and the jobs we see most are a chip where the taps sit and holes from dropped items.

Nothing needs to be moved out of the room beforehand. We bring everything we need with us, lay protective sheets and get going once we have agreed what we are doing. Most jobs take a morning or an afternoon, and you can get on with other things while we are there.

  1. Dust sheets and masking go down around the bath.
  2. We clean, key and degrease the damage.
  3. We fill it, let it set, then sand it flush.
  4. Colour and gloss are matched to the surrounding surface.
  5. We clear up and give you the curing time, normally until the day after.

Pricing in Cardiff

Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is generally a fraction of the price, because there is no removal, plumbing or making good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

Looking after it afterwards

To keep it looking its best for years:

  • Clean with warm water and a mild detergent
  • Cover the bath during DIY or decorating
  • Keep metal cans and razors off the surface
  • If an acrylic bath flexes, have its feet adjusted

Use gentle, non-abrasive cleaners and try not to drop heavy bottles on the repair. Deal with new chips early, before rust sets in.

Tape over a fresh chip or crack until it’s repaired, to keep water out. Take it off before we arrive.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Cardiff

Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs in Cardiff and across the UK. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which matters when someone is living in the home.

We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Just send pictures, the address and how to get access and we will handle the rest.

When a repair isn’t the answer

In fairness, there are a few things a repair won’t fix:

  • Leaking fittings, which need a plumber
  • Rust that has eaten right through a steel bath
  • Acrylic cracks with no access behind them

What bath repair costs

Repairs from £95. There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price is based on:

  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • How much damage there is
  • The material and finish

No two jobs are quite the same, so we price each one individually. 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.

Getting a price from photos

We price nearly every job from photos. This is what to send:

  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • A wider photo showing the entire bath
  • The material, if you know it
  • Where you are, by postcode

Call 0345 017 0787 or use the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the entire bath, we can price the job without visiting.

Different materials, different repairs

Pressed steel

Under the enamel of a steel bath is thin metal. Once a chip exposes it, rust follows quickly, so the metal is treated and sealed before the repair.

Composite and resin

Stone resin and composite baths are heavy and solid. Chips and scratches can be filled and colour matched, just like other baths.

Cardiff: your questions answered

Can landlords book you?

Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as homeowners across Cardiff.

Is my repair covered?

Every repair comes with a one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.

How long before I can use the bath?

Normally by the following day, depending on the repair.

Is a bath repair permanent?

Done properly, a repair lasts for years, and ours come with a one-year guarantee. Gentle cleaning helps.

Can I add another job to the visit?

Yes, and it’s frequently cheaper. Send pictures of everything together and we will quote them together.

Will I be able to see the repair?

The goal is a repair that blends in. How well it disappears depends on the condition of the rest of the bath, and we will tell you what to expect.

Which areas do you work in?

We work UK-wide, and that includes Cardiff. Prices don’t change with location.
