Bath repair for Cefn-mawr homes

When a repair isn’t the answer

A few problems are outside what a surface repair can do:

  • A bath worn all over, where resurfacing makes more sense
  • Rust that has eaten right through a steel bath
  • A bath that moves underfoot, until its support is fixed

If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think before you book.

What we work on

  • Whirlpool & spa baths
  • Cast iron enamel
  • Pressed steel enamel
  • Roll-top & freestanding
  • Acrylic

FAQs for Cefn-mawr

How long does the repair take to cure?

Most baths can be used the next day. We confirm the time before we leave.

Will you leave a mess?

Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and tidy up before we leave.

Can you repair a crack in an acrylic bath?

Most of the time. The back of the crack is strengthened before the front is filled and refinished, so we need access under the bath.

Do you cover Cefn-mawr?

We do. We send a technician to Cefn-mawr for every job, with no extra charge for travel.

Is a bath repair durable?

It should, as long as the bath is firm and the area was prepared well. It carries our one-year guarantee.

What does bath repair cost?

Prices start from £95. The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from photos. You know the full cost before anything is booked.

Can I get a quote without a visit?

Generally, yes. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed price.

Do you repair coloured baths?

Yes, coloured baths are no problem. The colour is tinted by hand on the day.

DIY kit or professional repair?

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair won’t last.

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it will not stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.

How we price bath repair

Repairs from £95. Prices are worked out job by job. The main factors are:

  • How much damage there is
  • Doing more than one item at once
  • The material and finish
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it

No two jobs are quite the same, so each one is priced on its own. The size and type of damage, the material and access all play a part, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

Send photos for a quote

The better the pictures, the more accurate the price. Here’s what we find most useful:

  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • Details of any past repairs
  • A wider photo showing the whole bath
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus

Send us pictures of the damage and a wider shot of the whole item, and tell us you’re in Cefn-mawr, and we will come back with a fixed quote.

Repair or replace in Cefn-mawr?

Cast iron baths in particular are worth repairing: they’re very heavy to remove, especially upstairs, and replacing like for like is not cheap. A repair keeps it in place. Prices start from £95. There are no surprise extras on the day. What we quote from your pictures is what you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.

Why book with us

  • CHAS and Constructionline accredited
  • Rooms protected and left tidy
  • No need to remove anything
  • Colour mixed on the day to match

See our pricing and resurfacing vs replacement cost guide.

Keeping it looking good

To keep it looking its best:

  • Protect the bath with a towel when doing jobs nearby
  • Stick to mild cleaners and a soft cloth
  • Check that an acrylic bath does not move when you stand in it
  • Don’t scrub with anything abrasive

In the first few days, avoid putting weight or bottles on the repair. After that, clean it as you would the rest of the bath.

Do not leave a chip on a steel or cast iron bath. Once water reaches the metal, rust begins, and a rust spot is a bigger repair than a clean chip.

For landlords and businesses

We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, putting right damage done during fitting so nothing needs replacing. We’re CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.

Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.

What happens on the day

It’s a tidy, low-fuss visit. We confirm the time with you beforehand, protect the area, and get on with the job, which typically takes a few hours. If we find something your pictures didn’t show, we will explain it before carrying on.

  1. We start by cleaning the damage and taking out loose enamel and rust.
  2. We fill the damage and sand it flush with the surrounding surface.
  3. The colour is mixed on the spot to match your bath.
  4. We build up the finish and polish it into the surrounding enamel.
  5. Once it has cured, typically by the next day, the bath is ready to use.

Preparing for the visit

  • Have a window or extractor fan available
  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access
  • Clear the area around the damage

Ask for a price

For most jobs, photos are all we need to give you a price. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we’ll send back a fixed quote and some dates.

What your bath is made of matters

Cast iron

Cast iron is heavy and rigid, with a fused enamel surface. A chip down to the iron can rust, but the body of the bath lasts a very long time, which makes it well worth repairing.

Composite and resin

Composite baths are dense and solid, and frequently freestanding. Chips and scratches are filled and matched, in much the same way.
