DIY repairs versus a professional job
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.

We see every kind of bath damage: chips from dropped bottles, rust round the plughole, cracks in acrylic and holes from falling tools. Each is repaired in place. Our repair technicians work on whirlpool & spa baths, cast iron enamel and acrylic, and common reasons people get in touch are rust by the waste and overflow and a chipped rim or side.

For landlords and businesses
Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover, saving last-minute replacements. Several plots can be done in one visit.
If you manage property in Cwm-twrch Uchaf, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Send pictures for each one and we’ll price them together.
How the visit works
Once we are through the door, we keep the work contained to the one room. Surfaces nearby are masked off, the job takes a few hours, depending on the damage, depending on what we find, and we finish by cleaning up and talking you through the result.
- We clean the area and remove any loose enamel or rust.
- Next we fill the damage and sand it smooth and level.
- The colour is mixed on the spot to match your bath.
- We build up the finish and polish it into the surrounding enamel.
- We leave it to cure; you can generally use the bath the following day.
Preparing for the visit
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
- Let the surface dry out before the visit
- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
Getting a price
Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us photos through the quote form. With one close-up and one wider picture, we can price the job without visiting.

What bath repair costs
Prices start from £95. You will know the full cost before you book. We look at:
- Unusual colours or finishes
- What the surface is made of
- What kind of damage it is
- Access to the area
The price depends on the type and amount of damage, what it’s made of and how many jobs we combine into one visit. We give a fixed quote from your pictures, so there are no surprises on the day.
Getting a price from pictures
Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what to send:
- What it’s made of, if you know
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- Details of any past repairs
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
Getting a price is easy: take a close-up of the damage and a photo from further back, send them to us with your postcode, and you will get a fixed price back. Quotes are free and no obligation.
What your bath is made of matters
Pressed steel
Steel baths are lighter than cast iron, but have a similar enamel surface. Chips rust quickly on steel, particularly by the plughole, so early repairs matter.
Cast iron
A cast iron bath is heavy enough that most people never want to move it. The enamel is the part that wears or chips, and that’s what we repair.
Honest limits
Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:
- A steel bath rusted through
- Leaking fittings, which need a plumber
- A bath worn all over, where resurfacing makes more sense
Send us pictures and we will tell you honestly before you book.
Surfaces we repair
- Acrylic
- Roll-top & freestanding

FAQs for Cwm-twrch Uchaf
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
Generally, when the rest is in good condition. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. If replacing would be better, we will say so.
What if the damage is worse than the photos show?
We stop, show you and agree any change before carrying on. You won’t be charged for anything you haven’t agreed.
How do I get a price for bath repair in Cwm-twrch Uchaf?
Prices start from £95. Every job gets a fixed price based on photos of the damage. Send a close-up and a photo of the whole item and your postcode.
Do you repair coloured baths?
Yes. The colour is mixed on site to suit your bath, including pastel and older colours.
Can landlords book you?
Yes. We carry out repairs for householders, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses.
What happens once I’ve sent photos?
We look at the photos and reply with a fixed quote and some dates. If anything’s unclear, we will ask for another photo.
Can you redo someone else’s repair?

What information do you need?

Looking after it afterwards
So the finish stays in good condition:
- Fix dripping taps early to stop staining and limescale
- Get any new chip repaired before it rusts
- Keep metal cans and razors off the surface
- Check that an acrylic bath doesn’t move when you stand in it
For the first few days, keep heavy bottles off the repaired spot. After that, normal gentle cleaning is fine, avoiding abrasives.
Stop using the bath if a crack lets water through. Water under the bath can damage the floor and the ceiling below.
