Different materials, different repairs

Composite and resin

Composite baths are dense and solid. Chips and scratches can be filled and colour matched, in much the same way.

Acrylic

Acrylic baths are moulded sheet reinforced underneath. They don’t rust, but they can crack, scratch or be holed, and cracks need support from behind to stay fixed.

How we handle bath repair in Dinas Rhondda

A repair fixes just the damaged area and blends it into the rest of the bath, which costs far less than replacing a fitted bath and the tiles around it. You can generally use the bath the day after. Whether it’s a cracked acrylic bath and damage done while the bathroom was being fitted, we can typically put it right.

A one-year guarantee comes as standard, so you are not left on your own once we have gone.

How to look after the repair

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

Use a soft cloth and washing-up liquid for everyday cleaning
Have new chips seen to early
Keep metal cans and razors off the surface
Protect the bath with a towel when doing jobs nearby

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

A small chip is a quick job. Left alone, they stain and can rust, so it’s worth getting them done early.

Prices and what affects them

Prices start from £95. There’s no charge for travel to Dinas Rhondda. The price depends on:

The type of damage
How much damage there is
The colour and finish to match
The material and finish

We charge the same wherever you are, so there’s no premium for Dinas Rhondda. What changes the price is the job itself: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

Quotes from your photos

Before you send photos, these tips help us give you a firm price:

A clear, close picture of the problem area
Your postcode, so we can check dates
Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale

Getting a price is easy: take a close-up of the damage and a picture from further back, send them over with your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote. Quotes are free and you are under no obligation.

DIY kit or professional repair?

If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.

For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.

What we do, step by step

We begin by going over the job with you, so there are no surprises. After that, protection goes down around the work area and we start. It normally takes a few hours, and we’ll keep you posted as we go.

Dust sheets and masking go down around the bath.
The damaged area is cleaned, keyed and degreased, and any rust is treated.
We fill it, let it set, then sand it flush.
Colour and gloss are matched to the surrounding surface.
We clear up and give you the curing time, normally until the following day.

Preparing for the visit

Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area

Repair or replace: which is better?

A new bath brings a chain of other jobs: the tiles sitting on the rim tend to break, a new panel is often needed, and a plumber has to disconnect and reconnect everything. Repairing the damage avoids all of that. Prices start from £95. Every job is a little different, so each one is priced on its own. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all make a difference, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.
