Bath repair in Blaenau without replacing anything
We repair enamelled steel, cast iron and acrylic baths. The method changes with the material: rust is treated on metal baths, while cracks in acrylic are reinforced from underneath. Typical jobs include scratches you can feel with a fingernail and damage beneath the taps, across pressed steel enamel, roll-top & freestanding and cast iron enamel.
Whatever the size of the job, you get the same one-year guarantee in Blaenau and across Carmarthenshire.

What we’re called out for in Blaenau
Nearly all the chips we see start with something being dropped: bottles, shower heads, tiles and tools. On enamelled baths, any chip down to the metal lets water in, and rust follows.
If you can see any of these, send us a photo:
- Damage beneath the taps
- Rusty patches near the plughole
- Holes from dropped items
- Chips on the rim or sides

Questions from Blaenau
When can I have a bath again?
Normally the following day. We confirm the time before we leave.
Is there a guarantee?
All our work carries our one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.
Can you repair several things at once?
Of course, and it usually saves money. Send pictures of everything together and we will quote them together.
Can you repair a failed DIY repair?
Yes. We remove the old filler and start again. Tell us about it when you send photos.
What happens after I send pictures?
You will get a fixed quote back, generally with dates to choose from. You are under no obligation.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
Typically, if the item is otherwise sound. A repair avoids removal and making good. We’ll tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.
Can you fix rust around the plughole?
Yes. We take out the rust and any loose enamel, seal and fill the area, then colour-match the finish.
What information do you need?
Photos of the damage, a photo of the entire bath and your postcode. Then we’ll agree a date.
What your bath is made of matters
Pressed steel
Under the enamel of a steel bath is thin metal. Once a chip exposes it, rust follows quickly, so we treat and seal the metal before filling.
Composite and resin
Stone resin and composite baths are heavy and solid. Chips and scratches can be filled and colour matched, in much the same way.
When we’d advise against a repair
We won’t take on work that won’t last, so these are the limits:
- Water coming from the waste or taps rather than the bath
- Cracks in parts of an acrylic bath we cannot get to from below
- Flexing caused by a failed cradle or loose feet
If in doubt, send photos and we will say what we think before booking.
Surfaces we repair
- Pressed steel enamel
- Cast iron enamel
- Whirlpool & spa baths
- Acrylic

DIY repairs versus a professional job
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 frequently lifts.
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, and the work is guaranteed.
For landlords and businesses
Hospitality businesses cannot afford rooms out of action for long, so we keep visits short and tidy. We can work around your bookings.
For anyone letting property in or around Blaenau, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Just send pictures for each address and we will price them together.
Prices and what affects them
Repairs from £95. We do not charge extra for travel to Blaenau. The price comes down to:
- How many items we do on one visit
- How much damage there is
- The type of damage
- Unusual colours or finishes
Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. Damage, material and access decide it.
How to get a fixed quote
Two or three clear pictures are normally enough. It helps if you send:
- What it’s made of, if you know
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
Email us pictures of the damage and one of the entire item, and tell us you are in Blaenau, and we will reply with a fixed price.
How it works
Arrival times are agreed in advance, so you are not left guessing. Once we’re there, the work takes a few hours, depending on the damage. We leave the room clean and you will know when it can be used.
- We start by cleaning the damage and taking out loose enamel and rust.
- The chip or crack is filled, then sanded level with the bath.
- We mix the colour on the day to match your bath’s exact shade.
- We apply the finish coats and polish the repair so it blends in.
- Once it has cured, normally by the next day, the bath is ready to use.
Preparing for the visit
- Clear the area around the damage
- Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
Ask for a price
If you are in Blaenau and want a price, pictures are the quickest way: one close up, one from further back, plus your postcode. You will get a fixed quote with dates to choose from.

How to look after the repair
After the repair has cured, a few habits help it last:
- Keep metal cans and razors off the surface
- Keep abrasive pads and gritty cleaners away from the bath
- Give the bath a quick rinse after use
- Protect the bath with a towel when doing jobs nearby
A repaired bath needs no special treatment, beyond gentle cleaning. Skip bleach and gritty creams and give it a rinse after each bath.
A chip on a metal bath shouldn’t be left. Water gets to the metal and rust starts, and a rust spot is a bigger repair than a clean chip.
