- We tidy up and tell you when the bath can be used, typically the following day.
How to prepare

Advice
Do you need bath repair in Cwmpennar?
The usual cause is something heavy dropped into the bath, and a lot happen during bathroom refits. Cracks in acrylic have a different cause: the bath is not properly supported, so it flexes under weight.
Contact us if you’ve noticed:
- Chips caused by builders
- Rust by the waste and overflow
- A kit repair that didn’t last
- Hairline or through cracks in acrylic
Questions to ask before you book
- The length of the guarantee and what it covers
- What happens if they find more damage
- How soon you can use it again
- Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?
DIY kit or professional repair?
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is usually cheaper.
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
For landlords and businesses
Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover. We can visit several plots in one trip to keep costs down.
Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, putting right damage done during fitting. We are CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.
What a repair cannot fix
A few problems are outside what a surface repair can do:
- A bath that flexes because its feet or cradle have failed (that needs fixing first)
- Rust that has eaten right through a steel bath
- A bath worn all over, where resurfacing makes more sense

Materials we work on in Cwmpennar
- Pressed steel enamel
- Cast iron enamel
- Acrylic
- Whirlpool & spa baths
- Roll-top & freestanding
What your bath is made of matters
Composite and resin
Stone resin and composite baths are heavy and solid. Chips and scratches can be filled and colour-matched, just like other baths.
Pressed steel
Pressed steel is thinner and lighter, with an enamel finish like cast iron. Chips rust quickly on steel, especially around the waste, so repair chips early.
What bath repair costs
Prices start from £95. There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price depends on:
- How hard the colour is to match
- Doing more than one item at once
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- The size and number of damaged areas
What it costs depends on how much damage there is and what kind, the material and how many jobs we combine into one visit. You get a fixed price from your pictures, so you know the cost before booking.
How to get a fixed quote
You can take the pictures on your phone, there’s no need for anything special. Ensure they show:
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- One picture of the whole bath
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- The material, if you know it
For a price in Cwmpennar, photos are the quickest way: one close up, one from further back, plus your postcode. You will get a fixed quote with dates to choose from.

Aftercare tips
Aftercare is simple, and it makes a real difference:
- Check that an acrylic bath doesn’t move when you stand in it
- Don’t scrub with anything abrasive
- A dripping tap stains enamel, so fix it early
- Put a towel in the bath if you are working above it
Treat the repaired area like the rest of the bath: a soft cloth and washing-up liquid is all it needs. Avoid scourers and gritty cream cleaners.
Tape over a fresh chip or crack until it’s repaired, so water can’t get in. Take it off before we arrive.
