Bath repair in Bryncethin, done in place
Most of our bath repairs take a few hours, and the bath is back in use the following day. You won’t need a plumber or tiler, because the bath does not move. We regularly repair cast iron enamel, acrylic and whirlpool & spa baths, and the jobs we see most are chips on the rim or sides and scratches you can feel with a fingernail.
You’re covered for a year from the day of the repair. Just call us if there’s a problem and we’ll come back.

Materials and what they mean for the repair
Pressed steel
Pressed steel is thinner and lighter, with an enamel finish like cast iron. Chips rust quickly on steel, especially around the waste, so early repairs matter.
Acrylic
Acrylic is light and warm to the touch, but it relies on good support. Cracks are strengthened from behind before the front is finished.
Honest limits
A few problems are outside what a surface repair can do:
- A bath that moves underfoot, until its support is fixed
- Wear across the whole surface, which needs re-enamelling
- Leaks from the waste or overflow fittings (a plumber’s job)

DIY kit or professional repair?
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, and give it the full curing time. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is normally cheaper.
Should you replace it?
People often assume a cracked or chipped bath has to come out. In most cases it doesn’t: a proper repair gives it years more use, without the cost and upheaval of replacing it. Our bath repair starts from £95. Every job is a little different, so each one is priced on its own. The size and type of damage, the material and access all make a difference, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.
What you get with us
- No extra charge for your area
- Colour mixed on the day to match
- Repair technicians who travel to you, UK-wide
- A fixed quote before booking

Bryncethin: your questions answered
Is a repair better than a new one?
Generally, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. We will be honest if it’s not worth it.
What does bath repair cost?
Repairs from £95. Because every job differs, we price from pictures. You’ll get a fixed figure before booking.
I rent my home. Can I book you?
Yes, but check with your landlord or agent first. Many landlords are happy for a repair to be arranged.
How long before I can use the bath?
Normally by the following day, though it depends on what we have done.
Do you charge for travel?
Travel is included in the price, and we charge the same wherever you are.
Can you repair several things at once?
Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Include pictures of each item.
Can rust on a bath be repaired?
Yes. We take out the rust and any loose enamel, fill the area, then colour-match the finish.
What information do you need?
Photos of the damage, a picture of the whole bath and your postcode. Then we will agree a date.
What we do, step by step
When we visit, the technician arrives at the agreed time, protects the room with dust sheets and masking and gets started. The job normally takes a few hours. We tidy up before we leave and let you know when you can use it again.
- First, we check the damage against your pictures and agree the plan.
- Loose enamel, rust and dirt are removed so the repair can bond.
- We build up the filler in layers, shaping it to the bath.
- The colour is tinted by hand until it matches.
- The repair is polished to the same gloss as the bath and left to cure.
Before we arrive
- Let the surface dry out before the visit
- Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
- Have a window or extractor fan available
Ask for a price
No survey visit is needed: we price from photos. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through.

Looking after it afterwards
Nothing complicated is needed, just a few sensible habits:
- If an acrylic bath flexes, have its feet adjusted
- Get any new chip repaired before it rusts
- Do not scrub with anything abrasive
- 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 rinse after use.
Don’t leave a chip on a steel or cast iron bath. Once water reaches the metal, rust begins, and a rust spot is a bigger repair than a clean chip.
Prices and what affects them
Repairs from £95. Each job gets its own fixed price. This is what makes a difference:
- The type of damage
- The material
- Doing more than one item at once
- Unusual colours or finishes
We don’t add extras on the day. The price we quote from your pictures is the price you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.
Send photos for a quote
Phone pictures are fine. Just ensure we can see:
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- A wider photo showing the whole bath
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- Where you are, by postcode
Most clients in Bryncethin get their price from photos. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we will send back a fixed quote and some dates.
