Bath repair at your home in Craig Llangiwg
Small damage on a bath is worth repairing early. Exposed metal on enamelled baths soon rusts, and on acrylic, a crack keeps spreading while the bath flexes. A repair stops both. We work on roll-top & freestanding, acrylic and pressed steel enamel, and common reasons people contact us are impact holes in acrylic and chips along the edge of the bath.
We stand behind the work with a one-year guarantee, so you’re covered after the visit.

Should you replace it?
Cast iron baths especially are worth keeping: they’re very heavy to remove, especially upstairs, and replacing like for like is not cheap. Repairing it leaves it where it is. Prices start from £95. Set against the cost of replacement, repairing normally costs far less, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.
What you get with us
- Usually one visit, start to finish

Can I fix it myself?
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
Common questions in Craig Llangiwg
Can rust on a bath be repaired?
Yes. We take out the rust and any loose enamel, seal and fill the area, then colour-match the finish.
What happens if you find more damage?
The price is fixed for what the pictures show. Anything extra is discussed before we begin.
Can you match an avocado or pink bath?
Yes. We mix the colour on the day to match, including older coloured suites.
Do you cover Craig Llangiwg?
Yes. We work across the UK and travel to Craig Llangiwg and the rest of Neath Port Talbot. Send us pictures for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
When can I have a bath again?
Normally by the following day, though it depends on what we have done.
Is there a call-out fee?
We don’t add a call-out fee. The fixed quote covers the visit and the work.
Is it messy?
Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and we clean up when we have finished.
Is there any odour?
A little, depending on the job. Open windows and an extractor fan help.
Looking after it afterwards
Most damage we see is avoidable. A few tips:
- Protect the bath with a towel when doing jobs nearby
- Give the bath a quick rinse after use
- Keep metal cans and razors off the surface
- Don’t scrub with anything abrasive
Use gentle, non-abrasive cleaners and avoid dropping heavy items on the repaired area. Deal with new chips early, before rust can start.
Small chips are quick to repair. Left alone, they stain and can rust, so it’s worth getting them done early.

What we can’t put right
Not everything can be repaired, and we will tell you before we start. Repairs won’t solve:
- Leaking fittings, which need a plumber
- A bath that flexes because its feet or cradle have failed (that needs fixing first)
- Cracks in parts of an acrylic bath we can’t get to from below

Signs you need bath repair in Craig Llangiwg
The usual cause is something heavy dropped into the bath, and building work is a common culprit. Cracks in acrylic have a different cause: poor support underneath, so the bath flexes when it’s full.
People generally call us when they notice something like this:
- A cracked acrylic bath
- Rust by the waste and overflow
- A chip where the taps sit
- Holes from dropped items
What your quote should include
- Who will actually do the work
- How long the guarantee is and what it covers
- How long it needs to cure
- A fixed quote, and whether VAT is included
Different materials, different repairs
Composite and resin
Stone resin and composite baths are heavy and solid, and often freestanding. Chips and scratches are filled and matched, in much the same way.
Pressed steel
Under the enamel of a steel bath is thin metal. Once a chip exposes it, rust follows quickly, so the metal is treated and sealed before the repair.
How it works
Once we are through the door, we keep the work contained to the one room. We mask off everything nearby, the job takes a few hours, depending on the damage, depending on what we find, and we finish with a tidy-up and a look at the finished work together.
- First, we check the damage against your photos and agree the plan.
- Any rust and loose material comes out, and the area is degreased.
- We build up the filler in layers, shaping it to the bath.
- The colour is tinted by hand until it matches.
- The repair is polished to the same gloss as the bath and left to cure.
Preparing for the visit
- Make sure the room can be ventilated
- Ensure the area is dry
- Let us know which floor the room is on

Rental properties take more wear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.
