How to care for the repair

Looking after the surface is easy, and it makes a real difference:

  • Cover the bath during DIY or decorating
  • Do not leave razors or cans standing in the bath
  • Fix dripping taps early to stop staining and limescale
  • Keep abrasive pads and gritty cleaners away from the bath

For the first few days, keep heavy bottles off the repaired spot. After that, clean it as you would the rest of the bath without abrasive products.

If an acrylic bath has a crack, stop showering in it until it’s repaired. Each time it flexes, the crack grows, and water can get through to the floor below.

What happens on the day

Expect a friendly, tidy visit. We confirm the time with you beforehand, cover and mask the work area, then carry out the work, which normally takes a morning or an afternoon. If anything looks different from your photos, we’ll talk to you before going ahead.

  1. Dust sheets and masking go down around the bath.
  2. The damaged area is cleaned, keyed and degreased, and any rust is treated.
  3. Filler goes in and is sanded flush once it has set.
  4. We match both the colour and the shine.
  5. We clear up and give you the curing time, normally until the following day.

Preparing for the visit

  • Clear the area around the damage
  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access
  • Point us to the nearest place to park

Can I fix it myself?

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. 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.

It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is normally the cheaper route.

Repairing versus replacing in Congl-y-wal

Cast iron baths especially are worth keeping: getting one out, particularly from an upstairs bathroom, is a big job, and replacing like for like isn’t cheap. A repair keeps it in place. Prices start from £95. A few things move the price: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

Why us?

  • No extra charge for your area
  • Straight answers about what a repair can do
  • Free fixed quotes from pictures
  • We leave the room as we found it

Prices and what affects them

Repairs from £95. We don’t charge extra for travel to Congl-y-wal. The price comes down to:

  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • What kind of damage it is
  • The material
  • How hard the colour is to match

Our prices are the same across the UK, with no extra for Congl-y-wal. The job itself decides the price: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

Getting a price from photos

Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what to send:

  • Something in shot to show the size
  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • One picture of the whole bath
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare

There’s no need for us to visit first. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price.

When to call us in Congl-y-wal

Damage during fitting is very common. Tools, tiles and fittings get dropped into the bath, often before anyone notices. Snagging repairs like these are a regular job for us.

Keep an eye out for these signs:

  • Chips caused by builders
  • Holes from dropped items
  • Cracks in an acrylic bath
  • Chips along the edge of the bath

What your quote should include

  • What protection goes down before work starts
  • Who turns up on the day
  • How soon you can use it again
  • What the guarantee covers, and for how long

Choosing a repair company

  • Metal that has corroded all the way through
  • Cracks in parts of an acrylic bath we cannot get to from below
  • A bath worn all over, where resurfacing makes more sense

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