When to call us in Bontnewydd

The usual cause is something heavy dropped into the bath, and a lot happen during bathroom refits. Cracks in acrylic have a different cause: poor support underneath, so the bath flexes when it’s full.

Look out for these signs:

  • Cracks in an acrylic bath
  • Holes from dropped items
  • Rust by the waste and overflow
  • Damage beneath the taps

10 questions to ask before you book

Common questions in Bontnewydd

How invisible is a bath repair?

The goal is a repair that blends in. The rest of the bath’s condition makes a difference.

Which areas do you work in?

The entire UK, including all of Gwynedd. Just include your postcode and we will confirm dates.

Is my repair covered?

All our work carries a one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.

Do you do work for letting agents?

We do, regularly. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.

Can tenants book a repair?

Yes. Ask your landlord first, and we can send them the quote if that helps.

What happens once I’ve sent photos?

We look at the pictures and reply with a fixed price and some dates. If we need another angle, we will ask.

Do you work in Bontnewydd?

Yes, we do. Technicians travel to Bontnewydd from across the region, with no extra charge for travel.

Is there any odour?

It depends on the job, but often a little. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum, and it soon fades.

DIY kit or professional repair?

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.

For a hairline mark somewhere you will 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.

Repairing versus replacing in Bontnewydd

Swapping a damaged bath for a new one normally means a plumber, lifting out the old bath, making good the tiles and panel and getting rid of the old bath. A repair fixes just the damaged area in a single visit. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. A repair normally costs much less than people expect, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Bontnewydd

Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which is easier on the people living there.

Letting agents frequently send us pictures straight from the inventory. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.

What affects the price in Bontnewydd

Prices start from £95. We give every job a fixed price from photos. These are the things that affect it:

  • The material
  • Access to the area
  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • How many items we do on one visit

Set against the cost of replacement, repairing typically costs far less, because there’s no removal, plumbing or making good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

How to get a fixed quote

You can take the photos on your phone. Ensure they show:

  • Something in shot to show the size
  • Natural light rather than flash
  • A wider photo showing the whole bath
  • What it’s made of, if you know

The quickest way to a price is to send two or three photos through our quote form or ring us. We’ll say straight away whether it can be repaired.

How it works

We turn up at the time we agreed with you and checks the damage against your photos first. Dust sheets and masking tape go down before any work starts. Most visits take a few hours, and the room is left clean and tidy.

  1. We protect the bath and the floor around it.
  2. The damaged area is cleaned, keyed and degreased, and any rust is treated.
  3. We fill it, let it set, then sand it flush.
  4. Colour and gloss are matched to the surrounding surface.
  5. We tidy up and tell you when the bath can be used, typically the day after.

Before we arrive

  • Let us know if it has been repaired before
  • Make sure the area is dry
  • Ensure the room can be ventilated

Looking after it afterwards

So the finish stays in good condition:

  • Use a soft cloth and washing-up liquid for everyday cleaning
  • Keep metal cans and razors off the surface
  • Rinse it down after each bath
  • Keep abrasive pads and gritty cleaners away from the bath

Treat the repaired area like the rest of the bath: warm water, washing-up liquid and a soft cloth. Avoid scourers and gritty cream cleaners.

Avoid standing in a cracked acrylic bath until it’s fixed. Each time it flexes, the crack grows, and water can get through to the floor below.

Different materials, different repairs

Composite and resin

Composite baths are dense and solid. Chips and scratches are filled and matched, just like other baths.

Pressed steel

Pressed steel is thinner and lighter, with an enamel finish like cast iron. Exposed steel rusts fast, especially around the waste, so repair chips early.
