Bath repair at your home in Cefn Hengoed
Most bath damage, from chips and cracks to rust spots and holes, is repaired in place. There is no plumbing to disconnect, your tiles stay as they are, and the repaired area is colour matched so it blends in. If you’re dealing with hairline or through cracks in acrylic and a failed DIY repair that’s discoloured or lifting, we can generally put it right, on cast iron enamel, roll-top & freestanding and acrylic alike.
Every job is backed for twelve months in Cefn Hengoed and everywhere else. We return to put right any problem with the work.

What we cannot put right
We will not take on work that won’t last, so here’s what a repair cannot put right:
- Wear across the whole surface, which needs re-enamelling
- Leaking fittings, which need a plumber
- Cracks in acrylic we cannot reach from underneath

Common questions in Cefn Hengoed
Are there extra charges for Cefn Hengoed?
There’s no separate call-out charge. Your fixed price includes everything.
What about rust by the waste?
Yes. We remove the rust and loose enamel, seal and fill the area, then colour-match the finish.
Will the repair show?
On a bath in good condition, a colour-matched repair is very hard to spot. On older, dull enamel the repair can look glossier than the area around it.
What happens if you find more damage?
If we find something the pictures didn’t show, we explain it first. You decide whether to go ahead.
Will it make a mess?
We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and tidy up before we leave.
Is a bath repair permanent?
Done properly, a repair lasts for years, and ours come with a one-year guarantee. Gentle cleaning helps it last.
Is there a guarantee?
Yes: twelve months. If there’s a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.
What happens after I send pictures?
You’ll get a fixed quote back. There is no obligation to book.
How the visit works
Arrival times are agreed in advance, so you’re not left guessing. On site, it takes two to three hours for most chips for most jobs. The room is left tidy and ready to use once it has cured.
- First, the area is cleaned and any loose enamel or rust is removed.
- We fill the damage and sand it flush with the surrounding surface.
- We tint the finish on the day to suit your bath’s shade of white or colour.
- Finish coats go on, then the repair is polished to blend in.
- Once it has cured, usually by the following day, the bath is ready to use.
Preparing for the visit
- Let us know about parking or access
- Clear the area around the damage
- Point us to the nearest place to park
How to get a price
Getting a price is easy: snap the damage close up and then the whole item, send them to us with your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote. Quotes are free and no obligation.

Do you need bath repair in Cefn Hengoed?
Most bath damage comes from something dropped: bottles, shower heads, tiles and tools. On steel and cast iron baths, a chip that reaches the metal will start to rust.
If you can see any of these, send us a photo:
- A chipped rim or side
- A chip where the taps sit
- A kit repair that didn’t last
- Holes from dropped items

DIY kit or professional repair?
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair won’t last.
For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.

Aftercare tips
Looking after the surface is easy, and it makes a real difference:
- Stick to mild cleaners and a soft cloth
- Keep abrasive pads and gritty cleaners away from the bath
- Protect the bath with a towel when doing jobs nearby
- Get a dripping tap fixed promptly
Treat the repaired area like the rest of the bath: a soft cloth and washing-up liquid is all it needs. Avoid scourers and gritty cream cleaners.
A chip on a metal bath shouldn’t be left. Water gets to the metal and rust starts, turning a quick repair into a bigger one.
