Bath repair at your home in Cyncoed
Whatever has happened to the bath, we aim for the same result: a repair that’s smooth, sound and hard to spot. We prepare the area properly, fill and shape it, then match the colour and gloss so it’s level with the surrounding surface. Whether it’s a cracked acrylic bath and a failed DIY repair that’s discoloured or lifting, we can help, whatever the material.
We guarantee the work for a year. If there’s a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it.

Should you replace it?
A repair makes sense whenever the damage is localised. It’s a fraction of the cost of a new bath and fitting, it’s done in one visit, and nothing else in the room changes. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Every job is a little different, so each one is priced on its own. The size and type of damage, the material and access all make a difference, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

Cyncoed: your questions answered
What does bath repair cost?
Repairs from £95. The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from pictures. You know the full cost before anything is booked.
Can a cracked acrylic bath be fixed?
Often, yes, if we can reach the underside to reinforce it. Check under the bath panel, or send us a picture.
Is there a guarantee?
All our work carries our one-year guarantee. We’ll explain what it covers when we quote.
What happens once I’ve sent pictures?
We check the damage, the material and your postcode, then reply with a quote with dates.
Do you work in Cyncoed?
Yes. We cover the entire UK and come to Cyncoed and the rest of Cardiff. Send photos and we’ll quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
Can you fix rust around the plughole?
Yes. We take out the rust and any loose enamel, seal and fill the area, then colour-match the finish.
Can pets and children be at home?
On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children, mainly so nothing gets touched before it has cured.
Will the repair show?
The goal is a repair that blends in. The rest of the bath’s condition makes a difference.
Should I try a DIY kit first?
If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, and give it the full curing time. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair will not last.
When we would advise against a repair
Before you book, it’s worth knowing the limits:
- Acrylic cracks with no access behind them
- Leaking fittings, which need a plumber
- Metal that has corroded all the way through
If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think before you book.
Surfaces we repair
- Whirlpool & spa baths
- Acrylic
- Roll-top & freestanding
- Pressed steel enamel
- Cast iron enamel
What we do, step by step
On the day, the technician arrives at the agreed time, protects the room with dust sheets and masking and gets started. Expect it to take a few hours. We tidy up before we leave and let you know when you can use it again.
- We start by cleaning the damage and taking out loose enamel and rust.
- We fill the damage and sand it flush with the surrounding surface.
- We mix the colour on the day to match your bath’s exact shade.
- We build up the finish and polish it into the surrounding enamel.
- The repair is left to cure, and most baths can be used the next day.
Before we arrive
- Let the surface dry out before the visit
- Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
Getting a price
Getting a price is easy: snap the damage close up and then the whole item, send them over with your postcode, and you’ll get a fixed price back. Quotes are free and you’re under no obligation.
Advice
Aftercare tips
It’s all simple stuff:
- Check that an acrylic bath doesn’t move when you stand in it
- Clean with warm water and a mild detergent
- Do not leave a fresh chip for long
- Avoid scourers, wire wool and gritty cream cleaners
Give the repair the full curing time we recommend before running a bath. After that, gentle cleaning keeps it looking good.
Rust spreads under enamel faster than most people expect. A chip the size of a fingernail can become a much larger patch if it’s left for months, so it pays to deal with it early.
Landlord and trade work in Cyncoed
We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out photos. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.
Rented homes see more wear and tear, 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.
Repairs by material
Acrylic
Acrylic baths are moulded sheet reinforced underneath. There’s no rust, but cracks, holes and scratches happen, and cracks need support from behind to stay fixed.
Pressed steel
Steel baths are lighter than cast iron, but have a similar enamel surface. Exposed steel rusts fast, particularly by the plughole, so early repairs matter.

When to call us in Cyncoed
Rust typically starts where water sits, by the plughole, beneath dripping taps or in an unrepaired chip. Once water reaches the steel or iron, rust spreads under the enamel.
Typical reasons for a call-out include:
- Rust by the waste and overflow
- A kit repair that didn’t last
- A cracked acrylic bath
- Holes from dropped items
