Bath repair in Cowbridge with Llanblethian without replacing anything
A repair fixes just the damaged area and blends it into the rest of the bath, which costs far less than replacing a fitted bath. Most baths can be used again the following day. We work on acrylic, pressed steel enamel and roll-top & freestanding, and the jobs we see most are rusty patches near the plughole and impact holes in acrylic.
A one-year guarantee comes with the work, just as it does everywhere we cover.

How it works
You do not need to empty the room beforehand. Everything we use comes in the van with us, lay protective sheets and start once you’re happy with the plan. Most jobs take two to three hours for most chips, and you’re welcome to carry on with your day while we work.
- First, we check the damage against your photos and agree the plan.
- Loose enamel, rust and dirt are removed so the repair can bond.
- We build up the filler in layers, shaping it to the bath.
- The colour is tinted by hand until it matches.
- Finally, it’s polished to match the shine and left to cure.
How to prepare
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
- Keep a parking space free if you can
- Open a window if you can

DIY kit or professional repair?
For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, it’s worth having it done properly.
A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it will not stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.

What your bath is made of matters
Acrylic
Acrylic baths are moulded sheet reinforced underneath. They don’t rust, but they can crack, scratch or be holed, and cracks need support from behind to stay fixed.
Composite and resin
Stone resin and composite baths are heavy and solid. Chips and scratches are filled and matched, just like other baths.
What affects the price in Cowbridge with Llanblethian
Repairs from £95. There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price is based on:
- Access to the area
- Whether we combine several jobs
- Unusual colours or finishes
- The material and finish
Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. Damage, material and access decide it.
Getting a price from photos
Good pictures mean an accurate price. Here’s what helps:
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- What it’s made of, if you know
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
We price from photos so you don’t have to wait in for a survey. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through, and we’ll come back with a fixed figure.
Looking after it afterwards
Nothing complicated is needed, just a few sensible habits:
- Use a soft cloth and washing-up liquid for everyday cleaning
- Get any new chip repaired before it rusts
- Store metal items away from the bath
- Protect the bath with a towel when doing jobs nearby
There is nothing special to do after a repair, just sensible cleaning. Avoid bleach-based and gritty cleaners and rinse after use.
Don’t 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.
