What affects the price in Caehopkin
Repairs from £95. We give every job a fixed price from pictures. This is what makes a difference:
- How easy the damage is to reach
- The material and finish
- What kind of damage it is
- How hard the colour is to match
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 combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.
Getting a price from photos
The better the pictures, the more accurate the price. Here’s what helps:
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- A picture taken from further back
- What it’s made of, if you know
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
Pricing is simple: snap the damage close up and then the whole item, send them over with your postcode, and you will get a fixed quote back. Quotes are free and you are under no obligation.

What we do, step by step
Arrival times are agreed in advance, so you are not left guessing. On site, it takes a morning or an afternoon. The room is left tidy and you’ll know when it can be used.
- Dust sheets and masking go down around the bath.
- The damaged area is cleaned, keyed and degreased, and any rust is treated.
- We fill it, let it set, then sand it flush.
- We match both the colour and the shine.
- We tidy up and tell you when the bath can be used, typically the next day.
How to prepare
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
- Open a window if you can

Repair or replace: which is better?
A repair makes sense whenever the damage is localised. It’s a fraction of the cost of a new bath and fitting, it’s done in one visit, and nothing else in the room changes. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. We charge the same wherever you are, with no extra for Caehopkin. What changes the price is the job itself: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

Caehopkin: your questions answered
What happens once I’ve sent pictures?
We check the damage, the material and your postcode, then reply with a quote.
Is there a call-out fee?
We don’t add a call-out fee. The fixed price covers the visit and the work.
Can you do more than one item on the same visit?
Yes. Doing several items on one visit generally costs less than separate visits. Include photos of each item.
Is my repair covered?
Every repair comes with a one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.
Is a repair better than a new one?
Typically, if the item is otherwise sound. A repair avoids removal and making good. We will tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.
How do I get a price for bath repair in Caehopkin?
Repairs from £95. We give a fixed price from your pictures. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo with your SA9 postcode.
Can a cracked acrylic bath be fixed?
Frequently, yes, as long as we can get to the back of the crack to support it. Check under the bath panel, or send us a picture.
What about rust by the waste?
Yes, very frequently. We take it back to sound metal, seal it, fill it and match the colour.
How to look after the repair
How the surface is treated afterwards matters:
- Clean with warm water and a mild detergent
- Rinse it down after each bath
- Cover the bath during DIY or decorating
- A dripping tap stains enamel, so fix it early
Treat the repaired area like the rest of the bath: warm water, washing-up liquid and a soft cloth. Keep scouring pads and gritty cleaners away from it.
Do not leave a chip on a steel or cast iron bath. Water gets to the metal and rust starts, and a rust spot is a bigger repair than a clean chip.

DIY kit or professional repair?
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is generally the cheaper route.
When we’d advise against a repair
We will always be straight with you, so here’s what a repair cannot fix:
- Water coming from the waste or taps rather than the bath
- Rust that has eaten right through a steel bath
- Flexing caused by a failed cradle or loose feet
If in doubt, send photos and we’ll say what we think.
What we work on
- Whirlpool & spa baths
- Pressed steel enamel
- Roll-top & freestanding
- Cast iron enamel
- Acrylic
Do you need bath repair in Caehopkin?
Dropped items cause the majority of chips, and a lot happen during bathroom refits. Acrylic baths crack for a different reason: the bath isn’t properly supported, so it flexes under weight.
Send us a photo if you notice any of these:
- Damage beneath the taps
- A kit repair that didn’t last
- Hairline or through cracks in acrylic
- A hole punched through by something heavy
What your quote should include
- How to look after the finish
- What happens if they find more damage
- Whether the price covers travel
- Whether they match the colour on site
