About our bath repair in Caerau
A damaged bath does not have to mean a new bathroom. We fill the damage, shape it to the curve of the bath and refinish it, mixing the colour on the day. Whether it’s rust by the waste and overflow and impact holes in acrylic, we can help, on pressed steel enamel, whirlpool & spa baths and acrylic alike.
Every repair comes with a one-year guarantee, wherever you are in Bridgend.

What bath repair costs
Prices start from £95. There’s no charge for travel to Caerau. The price comes down to:
- The material and finish
- Doing more than one item at once
- How much damage there is
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
What it costs depends on the type and amount of damage, what it’s made of and how many items we do on one visit. You get a fixed quote from your pictures, so you know the cost before booking.
Send pictures for a quote
Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what we need:
- One picture of the whole bath
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- Any details about the material
- Details of any past repairs
A quote takes minutes to ask for: photograph the damage, then the whole bath, add your postcode and send them over. You will get a fixed price, not an estimate.
Repairs by material
Pressed steel
Steel baths are lighter than cast iron, but have a similar enamel surface. Exposed steel rusts fast, especially around the waste, so repair chips early.
Cast iron
Cast iron baths are thick and very strong, with a fused enamel surface. A chip down to the iron can rust, but the bath itself lasts for generations, which makes it well worth repairing.
Landlord and trade work in Caerau
We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which matters when someone is living in the home.
For anyone letting property in or around Caerau, we’ll quote for several properties at once. Send photos for each one and we will come back with a combined price.
Questions from Caerau
Will I be able to see the repair?
We aim for a repair you cannot easily find. The rest of the bath’s condition makes a difference.
Can you redo an old repair?
Yes. We take out the old repair and do it properly. Tell us about it when you send photos.
Can you match an avocado or pink bath?
Yes. We mix the colour on the day to match, including pastel and older colours.
Is a bath repair durable?
Done properly, a repair lasts for years, and ours come with a one-year guarantee. Gentle cleaning helps it last.
What happens if you find more damage?
If we find something the pictures didn’t show, we explain it first. The price only changes if you agree.
I rent my home. Can I book you?
Yes, but check with your landlord or agent first. Landlords are frequently glad to have it sorted.
Can landlords book you?
Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as householders across Bridgend.
Do you charge for travel?
There’s no separate call-out charge. Your fixed price includes everything.
Can I fix it myself?
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is generally the cheaper route.
Do you need bath repair in Caerau?
Rust tends to begin where water collects, by the plughole, beneath dripping taps or in an unrepaired chip. Water on bare metal causes rust that creeps under the surrounding enamel.
People usually call us after spotting something like this:
- Deep scratches in acrylic
- Holes from dropped items
- Rusty patches near the plughole
- Hairline or through cracks in acrylic

Aftercare tips
Most damage we see is avoidable. A few tips:
- Keep metal cans and razors off the surface
- Protect the bath with a towel when doing jobs nearby
- Get any new chip repaired before it rusts
- Don’t scrub with anything abrasive
Give the repair the full curing time we recommend before running a bath. From then on, mild cleaning is all it needs.
Until we visit, a strip of waterproof tape over the damage helps, to keep water out. Take it off before we arrive.
How it works
We turn up at the time we agreed with you, introduces themselves and looks over the damage before anything else. Dust sheets and masking tape go down before we open a single tin. Most visits take a few hours, and we leave the room as we found it.
- We protect the bath and the floor around it.
- We clean, key and degrease the damage.
- We fill it, let it set, then sand it flush.
- Colour and gloss are matched to the surrounding surface.
- We clear up and give you the curing time, normally until the next day.
Getting ready for the visit
- Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
- Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
Getting a price
We price from pictures so you do not have to wait in for a survey. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through, and we’ll come back with a fixed figure.
