Bath repair in Cynffig without replacing anything
Small damage on a bath is worth repairing early. On steel and cast iron, exposed metal starts to rust, and on acrylic, a crack keeps spreading while the bath flexes. A repair stops both. Whether it’s damage done while the bathroom was being fitted and deep scratches in acrylic, we can help.
Peace of mind is built in: each job carries a one-year guarantee, and we explain what it covers before booking.

Should you replace it?
Replacing a fitted bath normally means a plumber, lifting out the old bath, re-tiling and a new panel and disposing of the old one. Repairing it fixes just the damaged area in one visit. Prices start from £95. A repair typically costs much less than people expect, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Send pictures and we will give you the exact figure.

What your bath is made of matters
Composite and resin
Stone resin and composite baths are heavy and solid, and frequently freestanding. Chips and scratches can be filled and colour-matched, in much the same way.
Pressed steel
Steel baths and trays have a thin metal body under the enamel. Once a chip exposes it, rust follows quickly, so the metal is treated and sealed before the repair.
How to care for the repair
Aftercare is simple:
- Keep abrasive pads and gritty cleaners away from the bath
- Protect the bath with a towel when doing jobs nearby
- Don’t leave a fresh chip for long
- Give the bath a quick rinse after use
Clean with mild, non-abrasive cleaners and try not to drop heavy bottles on the repair. Get any new chip seen to quickly, before rust can start.
Until we visit, a strip of waterproof tape over the damage helps, to keep water out. Take it off before we arrive.

What bath repair costs
Repairs from £95. You’ll know the full cost before booking. We look at:
- The colour and finish to match
- The size and number of damaged areas
- The material and finish
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Send photos and you will get a fixed figure.
Getting a price from pictures
Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what we need:
- Details of any past repairs
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- What it’s made of, if you know
For most jobs, pictures are all we need to give you a price. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.
How the visit works
From the moment we arrive, the aim is to do the job without disturbing the rest of your home. Surfaces nearby are masked off, the job takes a few hours, depending on the damage, and we finish with a tidy-up and a look at the finished work together.
- First, we check the damage against your photos and agree the plan.
- Loose enamel, rust and dirt are removed so the repair can bond.
- The damage is filled in layers and shaped to the curve of the bath.
- The colour is tinted by hand until it matches.
- Finally, it’s polished to match the shine and left to cure.
Preparing for the visit
- Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
- Ensure the area is dry
- Keep a parking space free if you can
How to get a price
There’s no need for us to visit first. Nearly every job can be priced from pictures: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed price.
Advice
DIY repairs versus a professional job
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, it’s worth having it done properly.
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 typically cheaper.
What we can’t put right
We will not take on work that won’t last, so these are the limits:
- A steel bath rusted through
- Cracks in acrylic we cannot reach from underneath
- Leaks from the waste or overflow fittings (a plumber’s job)
Not sure? Send photos and we will give you a straight answer before you book.

What else we do in Cynffig
When to call us in Cynffig
Most bath damage comes from something 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.
Look out for any of the following:
- A failed DIY repair that’s discoloured or lifting
- A chip where the taps sit
- Deep scratches in acrylic
- Chips on the rim or sides
