DIY kit or professional repair?

What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, ensure the area is clean and completely dry, and give it the full curing time. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.

How we handle bath repair in Buttington

Whether your bath is steel, cast iron or acrylic, we can repair it. The method changes with the material: metal baths need any rust dealt with first, and acrylic cracks need support from behind. Common call-outs are for damage done while the bathroom was being fitted and a cracked acrylic bath, on pressed steel enamel, cast iron enamel and roll-top & freestanding.

Whatever the size of the job, you get the same one-year guarantee in Buttington and across Powys.

What your bath is made of matters

Composite and resin

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

Acrylic

An acrylic bath is a moulded sheet strengthened from below. They don’t rust, but they can crack, scratch or be holed, and a crack only stays repaired if it’s supported underneath.

Do you need bath repair in Buttington?

The usual cause is something heavy dropped into the bath, and a lot happen during bathroom refits. Cracks in acrylic have a different cause: the bath is not properly supported, so it flexes under weight.

Send us a picture if you notice any of these:

  • A kit repair that didn’t last
  • A hole punched through by something heavy
  • A cracked acrylic bath
  • Snagging damage from a refit

What your quote should include

  • What prep work is covered
  • How the room is protected while they work
  • Whether the colour is mixed to match

Our hiring checklist

Work for landlords and builders

We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out photos. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.

Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets cannot afford rooms out of action for long, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We can work around your bookings.

Repair or replace in Buttington?

Replacing a fitted bath usually means a plumber, removing the old bath, re-tiling and a new panel and getting rid of the old bath. Repairing it fixes just the damaged area in one visit. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. A repair usually costs much less than people expect, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

Questions from Buttington

What happens once I’ve sent photos?

We come back with a fixed quote. There’s no obligation to book.

What information do you need?

A close-up, a wider photo and your postcode. Then we will agree a date.

Do you do work for letting agents?

Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as homeowners across Powys.

Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?

Generally, if the item is otherwise sound. A repair avoids removal and making good. We’ll tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.

Do you repair coloured baths?

Yes. The colour is mixed on site to suit your bath, including pastel and older colours.

Can I get a quote without a visit?

Normally, yes. Clear pictures let us give you a fixed price without visiting.

What does bath repair cost?

Repairs from £95. We give a fixed price from your photos. Send a close-up and a photo of the whole item with your SY21 postcode.

Is my repair covered?

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

The process

We turn up at the time we agreed with you and looks over the damage before anything else. The floor and nearby surfaces are covered before any work starts. Most visits take a morning or an afternoon, and the room is left clean and tidy.

  1. We clean the area and remove any loose enamel or rust.
  2. The chip or crack is filled, then sanded level with the bath.
  3. The colour is mixed on the spot to match your bath.
  4. Finish coats go on, then the repair is polished to blend in.
  5. The repair is left to cure, and most baths can be used the day after.

How to prepare

  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access

Ask for a price

Call 0345 017 0787 or use the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the entire bath, we can give you a fixed price the same day in most cases.

Related advice

Prices and what affects them

Repairs from £95. There’s no area surcharge for Buttington. What changes the price is:

  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • What the surface is made of
  • How many areas need work
  • The colour and finish to match

We charge the same wherever you are, so there is no premium for Buttington. The job itself decides the price: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

Quotes from your photos

It only takes a minute to photograph the damage. Try to send:

  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • What it’s made of, if you know

Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: photograph the damage, then the whole bath, add your postcode and send them to us. What comes back is a fixed price, not a guess.

Aftercare tips

Much of the damage we repair could have been avoided. A few tips:

  • Rinse it down after each bath
  • Keep metal cans and razors off the surface
  • Cover the bath during DIY or decorating
  • Make sure an acrylic bath is firm underfoot

Give the repair the full curing time we recommend before running a bath. After that, gentle cleaning keeps it looking good.

Stop using the bath if a crack lets water through until it’s repaired. Leaks under a bath can damage floors and ceilings.
