Bath repair in Conwy

About our bath repair in Conwy

We repair enamelled steel, cast iron and acrylic baths. Each material is repaired a little differently: rust is treated on metal baths, while cracks in acrylic are reinforced from underneath. Typical jobs include a chip where the taps sit and rust by the waste and overflow, in cast iron enamel, pressed steel enamel and whirlpool & spa baths.

Every repair comes with our one-year guarantee, wherever you are in Denbighshire.

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Pressed steel

Pressed steel is thinner and lighter, with an enamel finish like cast iron. Chips rust quickly on steel, especially around the waste, so repair chips early.

Cast iron

Cast iron baths are thick and very strong, with a fused enamel surface. A chip down to the iron can rust, but the bath itself lasts for generations, which makes it well worth repairing.

Work for landlords and builders

If you manage property in Conwy, we’ll quote for several properties at once. Just send pictures for each address and we’ll price them together.

We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Just send pictures, the address and how to get access.

What happens on the day

Nothing needs to be moved out of the room beforehand. We bring everything we need with us, put protection down and get going once we have agreed what we are doing. It typically takes a few hours, and you can get on with other things while we are there.

  1. We protect the bath and the floor around it.
  2. We clean, key and degrease the damage.
  3. Filler goes in and is sanded flush once it has set.
  4. Colour and gloss are matched to the surrounding surface.
  5. We clear up and give you the curing time, normally until the next day.

Before we arrive

  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible

Related advice

DIY repairs versus a professional job

A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.

A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it will not stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.

Signs you need bath repair in Conwy

Rust tends to begin where water collects, by the plughole, beneath dripping taps or in an unrepaired chip. Once water reaches the steel or iron, rust spreads under the enamel.

If you can see any of these, send us a picture:

  • Holes from dropped items
  • A failed DIY repair that is discoloured or lifting
  • Deep scratches in acrylic
  • A chip where the taps sit

Before booking anyone

  • Who turns up on the day
  • What the guarantee covers, and for how long
  • A fixed quote, and whether VAT is included
  • What prep work is covered

Choosing a repair company

Aftercare tips

It’s all simple stuff, just a few sensible habits:

  • Do not leave a fresh chip for long
  • Rinse the bath after use, especially in hard water areas
  • Do not leave razors or cans standing in the bath
  • Use a soft cloth and washing-up liquid for everyday cleaning

Clean with mild, non-abrasive cleaners and avoid dropping heavy items on the repaired area. Deal with new chips early, before rust sets in.

If an acrylic bath has a crack, stop showering in it until it’s repaired. Each time it flexes, the crack grows, and it can start to leak underneath.

Repairing versus replacing in Conwy

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. A repair keeps it in place. Prices start from £95. The price depends on how much damage there is and what kind, the material and how many items we do on one visit. You get a fixed price from your pictures, so there are no surprises on the day.

Why book with us

  • Most jobs done in one visit
  • Rooms protected and left tidy
  • Colours mixed by hand to suit your surface
  • Accredited with CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor

When a repair is not the answer

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

  • A bath that moves underfoot, until its support is fixed
  • Leaking fittings, which need a plumber
  • Cracks in acrylic we can’t reach from underneath

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