When to call us in Clawdd Poncen

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 steel and cast iron baths, a chip that reaches the metal lets water in, and rust follows.

Contact us if you’ve noticed:

  • A chipped rim or side
  • A chip where the taps sit
  • Chips caused by builders
  • Scuffs and scratches in the surface

Questions to ask before you book

  • Who turns up on the day
  • When it can be used again
  • What happens if the damage is worse than the pictures show
  • The length of the guarantee and what it covers

Clawdd Poncen questions

Can pets and children be at home?

We ask you to keep children and pets out of the room while we work and until it has cured. The rest of the house is unaffected.

Is a repair better than a new one?

In most cases, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. We’ll be honest if it’s not worth it.

What do you need from me?

Photos of the damage, a photo of the entire bath and your postcode. Then we’ll agree a date.

Can you repair several things at once?

Of course, and it usually saves money. Just add the extra items to your photos and we’ll quote them together.

Which areas do you work in?

We work UK-wide, and that includes Clawdd Poncen. Prices don’t change with location.

Is a cracked acrylic bath repairable?

In most cases. We reinforce the crack from behind, then fill and refinish the front, so access behind the panel is important.

Something went through my bath. Can it be fixed?

Normally. Photos of the hole and the underside help us check.

Can I get a quote without a visit?

Generally, yes. Clear pictures let us give you a fixed price without visiting.

Keeping it looking good

So the finish stays in good condition:

  • If an acrylic bath flexes, have its feet adjusted
  • Give the bath a quick rinse after use
  • Keep metal cans and razors off the surface
  • Use a soft cloth and washing-up liquid for everyday cleaning

Keep metal objects like razors and cans off the surface, because they can mark the enamel. And fix dripping taps promptly.

If water is getting through a crack, stop using the bath. Leaks under a bath can damage floors and ceilings.

The process

It’s a tidy, low-fuss visit. We confirm the time with you beforehand, cover and mask the work area, and get on with the job, which generally takes a morning or an afternoon. If we find something your photos didn’t show, we’ll explain it before carrying on.

  1. First, the area is cleaned and any loose enamel or rust is removed.
  2. The chip or crack is filled, then sanded level with the bath.
  3. We mix the colour on the day to match your bath’s exact shade.
  4. We build up the finish and polish it into the surrounding enamel.
  5. Once it has cured, generally by the following day, the bath is ready to use.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Let the surface dry out before the visit
  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access
  • Point us to the nearest place to park

Related advice

Repair or replace in Clawdd Poncen?

If the rest of the bath is in good condition, a repair is almost always the better choice. It’s quicker, cheaper and far less disruptive, and the bathroom stays as it is. Where the whole surface is tired, we may suggest re-enamelling instead. Our bath repair starts from £95. We do not add extras on the day. The price we quote from your pictures is the price you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.

Why book with us

  • Colours mixed by hand to suit your surface
  • Accredited with CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor

When we would advise against a repair

To be straight with you, some problems need a different fix:

  • Metal that has corroded all the way through
  • Cracks in acrylic we cannot reach from underneath
  • Leaking fittings, which need a plumber

Not sure? Send photos and we’ll give you a straight answer.

What we work on

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

Should I try a DIY kit first?

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is typically cheaper.

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 does not work out, we can still repair it properly.

How we price bath repair

Repairs from £95. There is no charge for travel to Clawdd Poncen. The price depends on:

  • How many areas need work
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • The material and finish
  • The colour and finish to match

Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. Damage, material and access decide it, and combining items on one visit brings it down.

Send photos for a quote

When you take your pictures, these tips help us give you a firm price:

  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • Natural light rather than flash
  • Something in shot to show the size
  • Any details about the material

We price from photos so you don’t have to wait in for a survey. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through, and you will get a fixed figure back.

For landlords and businesses

Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Clawdd Poncen use us as well as homeowners. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it generally costs far less than a refit.

We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out pictures. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.
