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’s the part we put right.

Composite and resin

Composite baths are dense and solid, and often freestanding. Chips and scratches can be filled and colour-matched, in much the same way.

Do you need bath repair in Baglan Moors?

A cracked acrylic bath usually wasn’t supported properly. Loose legs, no proper cradle or a floor that gives let the bath move until it cracks.

Send us a picture if you notice any of these:

  • Cracks in an acrylic bath
  • A chip where the taps sit
  • A kit repair that didn’t last
  • A chipped rim or side

What to look for in a quote

  • A fixed price, and whether VAT is included
  • Whether there are any call-out or travel charges
  • Whether they match the colour on site
  • Aftercare advice

How to compare quotes

Should I try a DIY kit first?

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.

For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.

How the visit works

On the day, the technician arrives at the agreed time, protects the room with dust sheets and masking and gets started. The job typically takes a few hours, depending on the damage. We clean up when we’re done and let you know when you can use it again.

  1. First, the area is cleaned and any loose enamel or rust is removed.
  2. We fill the damage and sand it flush with the surrounding surface.
  3. The colour is mixed on the spot to match your bath.
  4. Finish coats go on, then the repair is polished to blend in.
  5. The repair is left to cure, and most baths can be used the day after.

Before we arrive

  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
  • Let us know if it has been repaired before

Your questions about bath repair in Baglan Moors

Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?

In most cases, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. We will be honest if it’s not worth it.

Do you cover the entire of Neath Port Talbot?

We work UK-wide. Our prices are the same everywhere.

When can you do it?

That depends on our diary for your area. Send pictures with your postcode and we will reply with the earliest dates.

Do you come to Baglan Moors?

Yes. We work across the UK and travel to Baglan Moors. Send us photos for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

Do you work for landlords and businesses?

Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as householders.

Will it make a mess?

We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and we clean up when we have finished.

Is my repair covered?

All our work carries our one-year guarantee. We will explain what it covers when we quote.

Will the repair show?

On a bath in good condition, a colour-matched repair is very hard to spot. On worn enamel, it can look shinier than the rest.

Prices and what affects them

Prices start from £95. We price every job individually. The main factors are:

  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • How many items we do on one visit

Our prices are the same across the UK, so there is no premium for Baglan Moors. The job itself decides the price: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

Send pictures for a quote

A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. It helps if you send:

  • One picture of the entire bath
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • What it’s made of, if you know

To get a price, send two or three pictures through our quote form or call us. We will tell you honestly if a repair is the right fix.

Keeping it looking good

Nothing complicated is needed:

  • Get any new chip repaired before it rusts
  • A dripping tap stains enamel, so fix it early
  • Stick to mild cleaners and a soft cloth
  • Check that an acrylic bath doesn’t move when you stand in it

Do not leave razors, cans or hair grips in the bath, because they can mark the enamel. A dripping tap should be fixed early, too.

Small chips are quick to repair. Leave them and they collect dirt, stain and, on metal baths, rust, so it’s worth getting them done early.

Repair or replace in Baglan Moors?

When the bath is otherwise sound, repairing beats replacing. It’s quicker, cheaper and far less disruptive, and you keep the bath you chose. Where the entire surface is tired, we may suggest re-enamelling instead. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Every job is a little different, 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.
