Bath repair in Cwmcarn, done in place
Most of our bath repairs take a few hours, and the bath is back in use the day after. You will not need a plumber or tiler, because the bath does not move. Typical jobs include snagging damage from a refit and deep scratches in acrylic, across roll-top & freestanding, cast iron enamel and whirlpool & spa baths.
We guarantee the work for a year. If there is a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it.

Cwmcarn questions
Can you match an avocado or pink bath?
Yes, we match coloured baths too. We tint the finish to your bath on site.
I tried a repair kit. Can you fix it?
Regularly. The old material comes out, any rust is treated, then we repair it properly.
Are there extra charges for Cwmcarn?
There is no separate call-out charge. Your fixed quote includes everything.
How do I get a price for bath repair in Cwmcarn?
Repairs from £95. The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from pictures. You will get a fixed figure before booking.
What happens if you find more damage?
We will show you and explain before doing anything extra. Nothing extra is done without your say-so.
Do you cover Cwmcarn?
Yes, we do. We send a technician to Cwmcarn for every job, with no extra charge for travel.
Is there a guarantee?
All our work carries a one-year guarantee. We’ll explain what it covers when we quote.
Can you repair a crack in an acrylic bath?
Most of the time. The back of the crack is strengthened before the front is filled and refinished, so access behind the panel is important.

Should you replace it?
Replacing a fitted bath generally means a plumber, removing the old bath, re-tiling and a new panel and disposing of the old one. A repair deals only with the damage in one visit. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. The price reflects the work involved, not where you live. The full price is agreed before booking.

Keeping it looking good
Much of the damage we repair could have been avoided. A few tips:
- Make sure an acrylic bath is firm underfoot
- Get a dripping tap fixed promptly
- Rinse it down after each bath
- Clean with warm water and a mild detergent
Keep metal objects like razors and cans off the surface, because they can mark the enamel. And fix dripping taps promptly.
Do not leave a chip on a steel or cast iron bath. Once water reaches the metal, rust begins, turning a quick repair into a bigger one.
What happens on the day
We turn up at the time we agreed with you, introduces themselves and looks over the damage before anything else. Dust sheets and masking tape go down before any work starts. Most visits take a morning or an afternoon, and we leave the room as we found it.
- We protect the bath and the floor around it.
- We clean, key and degrease the damage.
- We fill it, let it set, then sand it flush.
- Colour and gloss are matched to the surrounding surface.
- We tidy up and tell you when the bath can be used, usually the next day.
Before we arrive
- Have a window or extractor fan available
- Let us know which floor the room is on
- Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
How to get a price
The quickest way to a price is to send two or three pictures through our quote form or ring us. We’ll say right away whether it can be repaired.

Do you need bath repair in Cwmcarn?
Dropped items cause the majority of chips, and a lot happen during bathroom refits. Acrylic baths crack for a different reason: the bath is not properly supported, so it flexes under weight.
Clients normally contact us about:
- A kit repair that didn’t last
- Rust spots around the plughole
- A chipped rim or side
- Snagging damage from a refit
What your quote should include
- If travel is included in the price
- What happens if they find more damage
- Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT
- What protection goes down before work starts
DIY repairs versus a professional job
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.
If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely and work on a clean, dry surface, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.
Different materials, different repairs
Cast iron
Cast iron baths are thick and very strong, with a fused enamel surface. Chips can rust if left, but the body of the bath lasts a very long time, so it’s always worth repairing.
Pressed steel
Under the enamel of a steel bath is thin metal. Once a chip exposes it, rust follows quickly, so we treat and seal the metal before filling.
What affects the price in Cwmcarn
Repairs from £95. There’s no area surcharge for Cwmcarn. What changes the price is:
- How many areas need work
- Doing more than one item at once
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- Unusual colours or finishes
We don’t add extras on the day. What we quote from your photos is what you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.
Send photos for a quote
You can usually get a fixed quote without us visiting. To help us price it:
- Where you are, by postcode
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- Natural light rather than flash
- What it’s made of, if you know
A quote takes minutes to ask for: photograph the damage, then the entire bath, include your postcode and send them to us. You’ll get a fixed quote, not an estimate.
What a repair can’t fix
We’d rather lose a job than do one that won’t last, so here’s what a repair cannot put right:
- Wear across the whole surface, which needs re-enamelling
- A steel bath rusted through
- Cracks in parts of an acrylic bath we cannot get to from below
Send us photos and we will tell you honestly.
Materials we repair
- Pressed steel enamel
