Bath Repair for Caerleon homes
Bath repair across Caerleon and nearby, generally in one visit and guaranteed for a year.
- Repairs from £95
- Rust by the waste and overflow
- Hairline or through cracks in acrylic
Work for landlords and builders
Letting agents frequently send us pictures straight from the inventory. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.
Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.
Bath repair in Caerleon, done in place
Bath repair is our most common job. Chips on the rim, rust around the waste and cracks in acrylic are all fixed without removing the bath, usually in a single visit. We’re frequently asked to fix a chip where the taps sit and cracks in an acrylic bath, on acrylic, pressed steel enamel and cast iron enamel.
You’re covered after we leave: each job carries a one-year guarantee, and we explain what it covers before booking.

What affects the price in Caerleon
Prices start from £95. You won’t pay by the hour. The price depends on:
- The material
- What kind of damage it is
- How easy the damage is to reach
- Unusual colours or finishes
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. We give a fixed quote from your photos, so there are no surprises on the day.
How to get a fixed quote
The better the photos, the more accurate the price. Here’s what we find most useful:
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- Where you are, by postcode
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
Getting a price is easy: snap the damage close up and then the entire item, send them over with your postcode, and you will get a fixed price back. Quotes are free and you’re under no obligation.
The process
On the day, we arrive at the time we’ve agreed, cover the area with dust sheets and masking, and set to work. Expect it to take a morning or an afternoon. We tidy up before we leave and let you know when you can use it again.
- We protect the bath and the floor around it.
- The damaged area is cleaned, keyed and degreased.
- Filler goes in and is sanded flush once it has set.
- We match both the colour and the shine.
- We tidy up and tell you when the bath can be used, usually the following day.
Getting ready for the visit
- Let the surface dry out before the visit
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
How to get a price
Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: photograph the damage, then the whole bath, include your postcode and send them to us. You’ll get a fixed price, not an estimate.

Honest limits
It helps to know what we cannot do:
- A steel bath rusted 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
If in doubt, send photos and we’ll say what we think.
Surfaces we repair
- Whirlpool & spa baths
- Acrylic
- Pressed steel enamel
- Roll-top & freestanding
- Cast iron enamel
Looking after it afterwards
After the repair has cured, a few habits help it last:
- Fix dripping taps early to stop staining and limescale
- Check that an acrylic bath does not move when you stand in it
- Store metal items away from the bath
- Don’t leave a fresh chip for long
For the first few days, keep heavy bottles off the repaired spot. After that, normal gentle cleaning is fine, avoiding abrasives.
A small chip is a quick job. Leave them and they collect dirt, stain and, on metal baths, rust, so it’s worth getting them done early.
Repairs by material
Acrylic
Acrylic baths are moulded sheet reinforced underneath. They do not rust, but they can crack, scratch or be holed, and a crack only stays repaired if it’s supported underneath.
Cast iron
Cast iron is heavy and rigid, finished with fired enamel. Chips can rust if left, but the body of the bath lasts a very long time, so it’s always worth repairing.

Common problems we fix in Caerleon
Nearly all the chips we see start with something being dropped: a shampoo bottle, a shower head, a tile or a tool during a refit. On enamelled baths, any chip down to the metal lets water in, and rust follows.
People usually call us when they notice one of these:
- A cracked acrylic bath
- Damage done while the bathroom was being fitted
- Rust by the waste and overflow
- A chipped rim or side

Caerleon: your questions answered
Is there any odour?
A little, depending on the job. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum, and it soon fades.
Can you repair something that’s been repaired before?
Generally, yes. Let us know what was used before.
Can you do more than one item on the same visit?
Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Include pictures of each item.
Can pets and children be at home?
Keep pets and children away from the work area on the day.
What happens next?
You’ll get a fixed quote back, plus dates. You are under no obligation.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
Generally, if the item is otherwise sound. A repair avoids removal and making good. If replacing would be better, we will say so.
Can you quote from photos?
Yes, almost always. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed price.
Will I be able to see the repair?
On a bath in good condition, a colour matched repair is very hard to spot. On worn enamel, it can look shinier than the rest.
DIY kit or professional repair?
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, make sure 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.
A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.
