About our bath repair in Bryncir

We repair just the damaged spot and colour-match it to the bath, which is far cheaper than replacing a fitted bath. Most baths can be used again the following day. If you’re dealing with deep scratches in acrylic and chips on the rim or sides, we can help.

A one-year guarantee comes with the work, just as it does everywhere we cover.

What affects the price in Bryncir

Repairs from £95. You won’t pay by the hour. The price is based on:

  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • How many items we do on one visit
  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off

What it costs depends on the type and amount of damage, what it’s made of and how many jobs we combine into one visit. You get a fixed price from your pictures, so you know the cost before booking.

Getting a price from pictures

The better the pictures, the more accurate the price. Here’s what we find most useful:

  • Something in shot to show the size
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus

Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: take one close-up and one wider shot of the bath, add your postcode and send them to us. You will get a fixed price, not an estimate.

What we cannot put right

A repair is not right for every job, including:

  • Acrylic cracks with no access behind them
  • Rust that has eaten right through a steel bath
  • A bath that flexes because its feet or cradle have failed (that needs fixing first)

Not sure? Send photos and we’ll give you a straight answer before booking.

Surfaces we repair

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

Should you replace it?

A new bath costs more than the bath itself: removal and disposal, plumbing, a new panel, tiling and decorating. With a repair, it’s one visit and one price. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Rather than charging by the hour, we price the whole job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and combining items on one visit brings it down.

Work for landlords and builders

We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out photos. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.

For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover, saving last-minute replacements. We can visit several plots in one trip.

Different materials, different repairs

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.

Acrylic

Acrylic is light and warm to the touch, but it needs firm support underneath. Repairs to cracks are reinforced from the back.

Aftercare tips

It’s all simple stuff, just a few sensible habits:

  • Clean with warm water and a mild detergent
  • Protect the bath with a towel when doing jobs nearby
  • Have new chips seen to early
  • Avoid scourers, wire wool and gritty cream cleaners

For the first few days, keep heavy bottles off the repaired spot. After that, normal gentle cleaning is fine without abrasive products.

If an acrylic bath has a crack, stop showering in it until it’s repaired. Every use opens the crack a little more, and it can start to leak underneath.

FAQs for Bryncir

Is it safe with children and pets around?

Yes, as long as they stay out of the room we are working in. We’ll tell you when the room can be used again.

Can you repair a hole in a bath?

In most cases. Photos of the hole and the underside help us check.

Can you price it without visiting?

Usually, yes. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed quote.

Is it messy?

Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we leave the room clean.

Can you repair something that is been repaired before?

Most of the time. Tell us what was done before.

Do you hold any accreditations?

Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.

Do I need to be at home?

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

What areas do you cover?

All of Gwynedd, and the rest of the UK. Travel is included in the price.

How it works

The work is clean and fairly quiet. We protect the area first, then the work takes a few hours. Before we leave, we explain how soon it can be used and how to look after it.

  1. We start by looking at the damage and confirming the plan with you.
  2. Loose enamel, rust and dirt are removed so the repair can bond.
  3. We build up the filler in layers, shaping it to the bath.
  4. We tint the finish by hand to match the bath.
  5. The repair is polished to the same gloss as the bath and left to cure.

How to prepare

  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
