What bath repair costs
Prices start from £95. There is no charge for travel to Cwmcarnhywel. The price comes down to:
- How many items we do on one visit
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- How much damage there is
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is normally a fraction of the price, because there is no removal, plumbing or making good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

Bath repair at your home in Cwmcarnhywel
It pays to repair bath damage while it’s small. Exposed metal on enamelled baths soon rusts, and on acrylic, a crack keeps spreading while the bath flexes. Repairing it stops the damage getting worse. Whether it’s damage done while the bathroom was being fitted and chips along the edge of the bath, we can generally put it right, whatever the material.
The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If something isn’t right in that time, we come back and put it right.

DIY kit or professional repair?
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is normally cheaper.
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.
Repairing versus replacing in Cwmcarnhywel
For damage in one or two places, a repair is the obvious choice. It’s a fraction of the cost of a new bath and fitting, it takes one visit, and nothing else in the room changes. Prices start from £95. No two jobs are quite the same, so we price each one individually. The size and type of damage, the material and access all play a part, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

A repair isn’t always the answer, and we will tell you before we start. We cannot fix:
- Wear across the entire surface, which needs re-enamelling
- Water coming from the waste or taps rather than the bath

Repairs by material
Composite and resin
Stone resin and composite baths are heavy and solid, and frequently freestanding. Chips and scratches are filled and matched, just like other baths.
Acrylic
Acrylic feels warm and is light, but it needs firm support underneath. Cracks are strengthened from behind before the front is finished.
Signs you need bath repair in Cwmcarnhywel
Nearly all the chips we see start with something being dropped: a shampoo bottle, a shower head, a tile or a tool during a refit. On enamelled baths, a chip that reaches the metal will start to rust.
The most common problems we’re called about are:
- Cracks in an acrylic bath
- Rust by the waste and overflow
- Chips along the edge of the bath
- Scuffs and scratches in the surface
What your quote should include
- Whether the colour is mixed to match
- Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?
- How your room will be protected
- How soon you can use it again
Looking after it afterwards
After the repair has cured, a few habits help it last:
- Clean with warm water and a mild detergent
- Store metal items away from the bath
- If an acrylic bath flexes, have its feet adjusted
- Protect the bath with a towel when doing jobs nearby
In the first few days, avoid putting weight or bottles on the repair. After that, clean it as you would the rest of the bath without abrasive products.
Until we visit, a strip of waterproof tape over the damage helps, to keep water out. Remove it before the repair.

What else we do in Cwmcarnhywel
Cwmcarnhywel: your questions answered
Will the price change on the day?
The price is fixed for what the pictures show. If there is more, we’ll tell you before starting.
How long before I can use the bath?
Most baths can be used the next day. We confirm the time before we leave.
Do the materials smell?
Some materials have a smell while they’re applied. It clears as the materials cure.
Will I be able to see the repair?
On a glossy bath, you’ll struggle to find it. On worn enamel, it can look shinier than the rest.
What information do you need?
Photos of the damage, a photo of the whole bath and your postcode. Then we’ll agree a date.
Can tenants book a repair?
Yes, but check with your landlord or agent first. Many landlords are happy for a repair to be arranged.
Can pets and children be at home?
On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children, so the repair isn’t disturbed while it cures.
Can you match an avocado or pink bath?
Yes, we match coloured baths too. We tint the finish to your bath on site.
How it works
Here’s how a visit normally runs: we arrive on time, protect everything around the work area, carry out the work and tidy away. Plan for two to three hours for most chips from start to finish. Before we go, we will explain when it can be used and what to avoid for the first few days.
- We protect the bath and the floor around it.
- We clean, key and degrease the damage, and any rust is treated.
- Filler goes in and is sanded flush once it has set.
- Colour and gloss are matched to the surrounding surface.
- We clear up and give you the curing time, normally until the day after.
Preparing for the visit
- Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
- Have a window or extractor fan available
- Ensure the area is dry
Ask for a price
The quickest way to a price is to send two or three pictures using our quote form or call us. We’ll say right away if a repair is the right fix.
