Bath repair in Dilwyn without replacing anything

We repair enamelled steel, cast iron and acrylic baths. The method changes with the material: rust is treated on metal baths, while cracks in acrylic are reinforced from underneath. Typical jobs include holes from dropped items and a failed DIY repair that’s discoloured or lifting, in cast iron enamel, whirlpool & spa baths and pressed steel enamel.

You are covered after we leave: our one-year guarantee applies to every job, and we explain what it covers before you book.

Keeping it looking good

Looking after the surface is easy, and it makes a real difference:

  • Cover the bath during DIY or decorating
  • A dripping tap stains enamel, so fix it early
  • Rinse the bath after use, especially in hard water areas
  • Do not leave a fresh chip for long

Look after the repair the same way as the bath: warm water, washing-up liquid and a soft cloth. Keep scouring pads and gritty cleaners away from it.

Avoid standing in a cracked acrylic bath until it’s fixed. Every use opens the crack a little more, and water can get through to the floor below.

Prices and what affects them

Repairs from £95. We charge the same across the UK, including Dilwyn. What changes the price is:

  • Access to the area
  • How many areas need work
  • The material
  • Unusual colours or finishes

Rather than charging by the hour, we price the whole job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and combining items on one visit brings it down.

How to get a fixed quote

The better the photos, the more accurate the price. Here’s what helps:

  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before

We price from pictures so you don’t have to wait in for a survey. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through, and you will get a fixed figure back.

The process

We agree an arrival time beforehand. On site, it takes a few hours, depending on the damage for most jobs. We leave the room clean and you’ll know when it can be used.

  1. We start by cleaning the damage and taking out loose enamel and rust.
  2. We fill the damage and sand it flush with the surrounding surface.
  3. We mix the colour on the day to match your bath’s exact shade.
  4. Finish coats go on, then the repair is polished to blend in.
  5. The repair is left to cure, and most baths can be used the following day.

How to prepare

  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day

How to get a price

Call 0345 017 0787 or use the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the entire bath, we can price the job without visiting.

Questions from Dilwyn

Are you a vetted contractor?

We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.

Can a cracked acrylic bath be fixed?

Often, yes, as long as we can get to the back of the crack to support it. Take off the bath panel and check, or send us a picture.

I rent my home. Can I book you?

We’re happy to deal with the tenant, landlord or agent. Get your landlord’s agreement first.

Is a bath repair permanent?

Done properly, a repair lasts for years, and ours come with a one-year guarantee. Gentle cleaning helps it last.

Do you come to Dilwyn?

Yes. We work across the UK and travel to Dilwyn. Send us photos for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

Do you repair coloured baths?

Yes. The colour is mixed on site to suit your bath, including older coloured suites.

Can I get a quote without a visit?

Yes, almost always. Clear pictures let us give you a fixed quote without visiting.

What if the damage is worse than the pictures show?

Your quote covers the damage in the pictures. Anything extra is discussed before we begin.

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Acrylic

Acrylic baths are moulded sheet reinforced underneath. There is no rust, but cracks, holes and scratches happen, and cracks need support from behind to stay fixed.

Cast iron

Cast iron baths are so heavy that repairing in place makes obvious sense. The enamel is the part that wears or chips, and that is what we repair.

What we’re called out for in Dilwyn

Rust normally 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.

You may need us if you’ve spotted any of these:

  • Rusty patches near the plughole
  • Damage done while the bathroom was being fitted
  • A failed DIY repair that’s discoloured or lifting
  • A hole punched through by something heavy

Questions to ask before you book

  • What protection goes down before work starts
  • What preparation is included
  • Whether they match the colour on site
  • Aftercare advice

Our hiring checklist

Repairing versus replacing in Dilwyn

Cast iron baths especially are worth keeping: getting one out, particularly from an upstairs bathroom, is a big job, and a like-for-like replacement can be expensive. Repairing it leaves it where it is. Our bath repair starts from £95. A few things move the price: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Send photos and you will get a fixed figure.

Why us?

  • A year’s guarantee on all work
  • Same prices wherever you are
  • Rooms protected and left tidy
  • Work done at your home or business

DIY kit or professional repair?

It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and then the old filler has to be removed first.

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is normally cheaper.

Landlord and trade work in Dilwyn

We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Dilwyn as well as householders. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it costs much less than replacing.

Letting agents frequently send us pictures straight from the inventory. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.
