What we do, step by step

We begin by going over the job with you. Next, we cover and mask everything nearby and we start. It normally takes a few hours, depending on the damage.

  1. We start by cleaning the damage and taking out loose enamel and rust.
  2. Next we fill the damage and sand it smooth and level.
  3. We mix the colour on the day to match your bath’s exact shade.
  4. We build up the finish and polish it into the surrounding enamel.
  5. Once it has cured, generally by the following day, the bath is ready to use.

How to prepare

  • Keep a parking space free if you can
  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
  • Let us know if it has been repaired before

Advice

Keeping it looking good

How the surface is treated afterwards matters. Here’s what we suggest:

  • Do not leave a fresh chip for long
  • Protect the bath with a towel when doing jobs nearby
  • Clean with warm water and a mild detergent
  • Rinse it down after each bath

Keep metal objects like razors and cans off the surface, because they can mark the enamel. A dripping tap should be fixed early, too.

Small chips are quick to repair. Leave them and they collect dirt, stain and, on metal baths, rust, so it’s worth getting them done early.

Do you need bath repair in Brynhyfryd?

A bath gets knocked about more than you’d think: bottles, shower heads and razors are dropped every day, and fittings press hard against the enamel. Over time, chips and rust spots are almost inevitable.

Most people get in touch after spotting one of these:

  • Scuffs and scratches in the surface
  • Cracks in an acrylic bath
  • Chips under the taps
  • Rust by the waste and overflow

Questions to ask before you book

  • How long it needs to cure
  • Who will actually do the work
  • What the guarantee covers, and for how long
  • What aftercare is recommended

Our hiring checklist

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Pressed steel

Under the enamel of a steel bath is thin metal. Once a chip exposes it, rust follows quickly, so the metal is treated and sealed before the repair.

Cast iron

A cast iron bath is heavy enough that most people never want to move it. Only the enamel surface wears or chips, and that is what we repair.

When we’d advise against a repair

A repair isn’t always the answer, and we’ll tell you before we start. We cannot fix:

  • Metal that has corroded all the way through
  • Cracks in parts of an acrylic bath we can’t get to from below
  • Water coming from the waste or taps rather than the bath

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

FAQs for Brynhyfryd

Will you leave a mess?

Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and tidy up before we leave.

Can I get a quote without a visit?

Yes, almost always. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed price.

Do you come to Brynhyfryd?

Yes. We work across the UK and come to Brynhyfryd. Send pictures and we’ll quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?

Yes, regularly. It can add a little time, which we include in the quote.

What happens if you find more damage?

It’s rare, but if it happens we talk to you first. You decide whether to go ahead.

Do you hold any accreditations?

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

Can you do more than one item on the same visit?

Of course, and it normally saves money. Just add the extra items to your photos and you’ll get one combined price.

Can you repair a hole in a bath?

Typically, yes, if we can reach behind it. We back the hole, fill it and refinish the surface.

Repair or replace: which is better?

Cast iron baths especially are worth keeping: they’re very heavy to remove, especially upstairs, and a like-for-like replacement can be expensive. A repair keeps it in place. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. No two jobs are quite the same, so each one is priced on its own. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all play a part, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

What you get with us

  • Every repair guaranteed for a year
  • Dust sheets down, tidy finish
  • CHAS and Constructionline accredited
  • Repair technicians who travel to you, UK-wide

How we price bath repair

Prices start from £95. You will know the full cost before you book. We look at:

  • The type of damage
  • The colour and finish to match
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • What the surface is made of

Compared with replacing, a repair is usually a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

Quotes from your photos

Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what we need:

  • Natural light rather than flash
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • One picture of the entire bath
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit

Email us photos of the damage and a wider shot of the whole item, with your SA14 postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed price.
