Need bath repair in Blaenffos?

Why repair rather than replace?

A new bath costs more than the bath itself: taking out the old one, plumbing, tiling, a panel and redecorating. A repair is one job, done in one visit. Our bath repair starts from £95. A repair is priced on what needs doing, not your postcode. You will see the full price before booking, with no extras added later.

Why us?

  • Rooms protected and left tidy
  • No extra charge for your area
  • One visit for most repairs
  • A year’s guarantee on all work

How we handle bath repair in Blaenffos

Bath repair is our most common job. A chip by the taps, a crack in the base and a rust spot by the plughole are all fixed without removing the bath, normally in one visit. Our technicians work on pressed steel enamel, roll-top & freestanding and acrylic, and the jobs we see most are a hole punched through by something heavy and chips on the rim or sides.

The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If there’s a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it.

What happens on the day

You don’t need to empty the room. Everything we use comes in the van with us, put protection down and get going once we have agreed what we’re doing. Most jobs take a few hours, depending on the damage, and you can get on with other things while we’re there.

  1. We clean the area and remove any loose enamel or rust.
  2. We fill the damage and sand it flush with the surrounding surface.
  3. We mix the colour on the day to match your bath’s exact shade.
  4. We apply the finish coats and polish the repair so it blends in.
  5. Once it has cured, generally by the day after, the bath is ready to use.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Open a window if you can
  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area

Advice

Can I fix it myself?

We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.

It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is usually the cheaper route.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Blaenffos

We’re used to working with agents and managing companies. Just send pictures, the address and how to get access and we will arrange it.

We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out pictures. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.

Questions from Blaenffos

Do I have to be there?

Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time that suits you.

Will there be a smell?

Some materials have a smell while they’re applied, which is why we ventilate. It clears as the materials cure.

Do you cover Blaenffos?

Yes. We work across the UK and come to Blaenffos and the rest of Pembrokeshire. Send pictures and we will quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?

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

Can you repair a crack in an acrylic bath?

In most cases. The back of the crack is strengthened before the front is filled and refinished, so we need access under the bath.

When can I have a bath again?

Normally by the following day, though it depends on what we have done.

Do you do work for letting agents?

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

Are there extra charges for Blaenffos?

We don’t add a call-out fee. The fixed price covers the visit and the work.

Honest limits

Some jobs aren’t right for a repair, for example:

  • Water coming from the waste or taps rather than the bath
  • A bath worn all over, where resurfacing makes more sense
  • Cracks in acrylic we cannot reach from underneath

If in doubt, send photos and we’ll say what we think.

Materials we repair

  • Whirlpool & spa baths
  • Acrylic
  • Cast iron enamel
  • Roll-top & freestanding
  • Pressed steel enamel

How we price bath repair

Repairs from £95. Every quote is fixed and free. What we take into account:

  • What kind of damage it is
  • How much damage there is
  • Access to the area
  • Unusual colours or finishes

It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

Quotes from your pictures

When you take your photos, these tips help us give you a firm price:

  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • Where you are, by postcode
  • Any details about the material
  • One picture of the entire bath

If you’re in Blaenffos and want a price, the easiest route is pictures: one close up, one from further back, plus your postcode. You’ll get a fixed quote with dates to choose from.

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Pressed steel

Steel baths and trays have a thin metal body under the enamel. Once a chip exposes it, rust follows quickly, so the metal is treated and sealed before the repair.

Composite and resin

Composite baths are dense and solid. Chips and scratches are filled and matched, in much the same way.

Keeping it looking good

To keep it looking its best:

  • Get any new chip repaired before it rusts
  • Keep abrasive pads and gritty cleaners away from the bath
  • Don’t leave razors or cans standing in the bath
  • A dripping tap stains enamel, so fix it early

There’s nothing special to do after a repair, just sensible cleaning. Skip bleach and gritty creams and give it a rinse after each bath.

A small chip is a quick job. Leave them and they collect dirt, stain and, on metal baths, rust, so early repair saves time and money.
