Bath chip & crack repair in Bettws Cedewain, Powys
We travel to Bettws Cedewain for chip and crack repairs to enamel, acrylic and cast iron baths. Everything is done in place, and the work is guaranteed.
- Repairs from £95
- Rust spots around the plughole
- Chips under the taps
Can I fix it myself?
A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it won’t stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
Bath repair in Bettws Cedewain, done in place
A repair fixes just the damaged area and blends it into the rest of the bath, which is far cheaper than replacing a fitted bath. You can usually use the bath the following day. We regularly repair acrylic, cast iron enamel and whirlpool & spa baths, and common reasons people get in touch are deep scratches in acrylic and a failed DIY repair that’s discoloured or lifting.
Big or small, you get the same one-year guarantee in Bettws Cedewain and across Powys.

What we’re called out for in Bettws Cedewain
Rust generally starts where water sits, by the plughole, beneath dripping taps or in an unrepaired chip. Water on bare metal causes rust that creeps under the surrounding enamel.
Get in touch if you’ve noticed:
- A cracked acrylic bath
- Chips on the rim or sides
- Deep scratches in acrylic
- Rusty patches near the plughole

FAQs for Bettws Cedewain
What happens after I send pictures?
You get a fixed quote and available dates. If anything’s unclear, we’ll ask for another photo.
Something went through my bath. Can it be fixed?
Often, if there’s access underneath. The hole is backed, filled and refinished to match.
Can you repair a failed DIY repair?
Regularly. We strip it out, deal with any rust and repair it again.
How soon can you come?
We will give you dates with your quote. If it’s urgent, say so and we will do what we can.
Will the repair last?
Done properly, a repair lasts for years, and ours come with a one-year guarantee. Gentle cleaning helps.
Do the materials smell?
It depends on the job, but often a little. Open windows and an extractor fan help.
Is my repair covered?
Yes: twelve months. If there’s a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.
Can you match an avocado or pink bath?
Yes, coloured baths are no problem. The colour is tinted by hand on the day.
Landlords, agents and businesses in Bettws Cedewain
We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out photos. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.
We’re used to working with agents and managing companies. Just send pictures, the address and how to get access.
What bath repair costs
Prices start from £95. We give every job a fixed price from pictures. This is what makes a difference:
- Access to the area
- Doing more than one item at once
- The type of damage
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
Compared with replacing, repairing typically costs far less, because there is no removal, plumbing or making good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.
Send photos for a quote
It only takes a minute to photograph the damage. Please include:
- What it’s made of, if you know
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- Details of any past repairs
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
Most customers in Bettws Cedewain get their price from pictures. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we will reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.

Honest limits
We will not take on work that won’t last, so here’s what a repair can’t put right:

- Flexing caused by a failed cradle or loose feet
- A whole bath that’s dull or worn, where a full re-enamel is the better fix
If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think.

Keeping it looking good
After the repair has cured, a few habits help it last:
- A dripping tap stains enamel, so fix it early
- Clean with warm water and a mild detergent
- Make sure an acrylic bath is firm underfoot
- Get any new chip repaired before it rusts
Look after the repair the same way as the bath: warm water, washing-up liquid and a soft cloth. Keep scouring pads and gritty cleaners away from it.
Rust spreads under enamel faster than most people expect. A chip the size of a fingernail can become a much larger patch if it’s left for months, so it pays to deal with it early.
Different materials, different repairs
Pressed steel
Steel baths and trays have a thin metal body under the enamel. Exposed steel rusts quickly, so we treat and seal the metal before filling.
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 happens on the day
We agree an arrival time beforehand. Once we are there, the work takes two to three hours for most chips for most jobs. We leave the room clean and ready to use once it has cured.
- Dust sheets and masking go down around the bath.
- The damaged area is cleaned, keyed and degreased, and any rust is treated.
- We fill it, let it set, then sand it flush.
- We match both the colour and the shine.
- We clear up and give you the curing time, normally until the next day.
Before we arrive
- Tell us about parking, stairs or access
- Let us know which floor the room is on
- Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
