What affects the price in Ciliau Aeron

Prices start from £95. We do not charge extra for travel to Ciliau Aeron. The price comes down to:

  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • Access to the area
  • Unusual colours or finishes

We do not add extras on the day. What we quote from your photos is what you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.

Getting a price from pictures

You can take the pictures on your phone. Make sure they show:

  • Any details about the material
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before

You don’t need a survey visit. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote.

Do you need bath repair in Ciliau Aeron?

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.

These are the problems we’re asked about most:

  • Chips under the taps
  • A kit repair that didn’t last
  • Snagging damage from a refit
  • Scratches you can feel with a fingernail

Questions to ask before booking

  • What aftercare is recommended
  • What happens if the damage is worse than the photos show
  • When it can be used again
  • If travel is included in the price

Choosing a repair company

Should you replace it?

Cast iron baths in particular are worth repairing: they’re very heavy to remove, especially upstairs, and a like-for-like replacement can be expensive. Repairing it leaves it where it is. Our bath repair starts from £95. A repair is priced on what needs doing, not where you live. The full price is agreed before you book.

Why us?

  • We leave the room as we found it
  • Technicians who travel to you, UK-wide
  • Same prices wherever you are
  • No need to remove anything

See our full price list or guide to resurfacing and replacement costs.

Honest limits

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

  • Cracks in acrylic we can’t reach from underneath
  • A whole bath that is dull or worn, where a full re-enamel is the better fix
  • A bath that moves underfoot, until its support is fixed

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

Surfaces we repair

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

Ciliau Aeron: your questions answered

Can you match an avocado or pink bath?

Yes, we match coloured baths too. The colour is tinted by hand on the day.

Can you redo an old repair?

Yes, we do this often. The old material comes out, any rust is treated, then we repair it properly.

Can you quote from photos?

Yes, almost always. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed quote.

Do you cover the whole of Ceredigion?

We cover the whole UK, including Ciliau Aeron and the rest of Ceredigion. Send your postcode with your pictures and we’ll offer you dates.

I rent my home. Can I book you?

Yes. Check with your landlord; we can send the quote to them too.

Something went through my bath. Can it be fixed?

Often, if there’s access underneath. The hole is backed, filled and refinished to match.

Do you do work for letting agents?

Yes, frequently. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.

Is it messy?

No. The work area is masked and covered, and we leave the room clean.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and then the old filler has to be removed first.

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.

The process

The work is clean and fairly quiet, so you can carry on at home. We protect the area first, then the job itself takes two to three hours for most chips. At the end we talk you through how soon it can be used and how to look after it.

  1. First, the area is cleaned and any loose enamel or rust is removed.
  2. We fill the damage and sand it flush with the surrounding surface.
  3. We mix the colour on the day to match your bath’s exact shade.
  4. We apply the finish coats and polish the repair so it blends in.
  5. The repair is left to cure, and most baths can be used the following day.

Preparing for the visit

  • Clear the area around the damage
  • Have a window or extractor fan available
  • Make sure the area is dry

How to look after the repair

How the surface is treated afterwards matters. Here’s what we suggest:

  • Cover the bath during DIY or decorating
  • Do not leave razors or cans standing in the bath
  • Have new chips seen to early
  • Don’t scrub with anything abrasive

Don’t leave razors, cans or hair grips in the bath, as they can leave rust marks. And fix dripping taps promptly.

Until we visit, a strip of waterproof tape over the damage helps, to keep water out. Take it off before we arrive.

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Acrylic

Acrylic feels warm and is light, but it needs firm support underneath. Cracks are strengthened from behind before the front is finished.

Pressed steel

Steel baths and trays have a thin metal body under the enamel. Once a chip exposes it, rust follows quickly, so we treat and seal the metal before filling.
