What your bath is made of matters
Pressed steel
Steel baths are lighter than cast iron, but have a similar enamel surface. Exposed steel rusts fast, particularly by the plughole, so repair chips early.
Acrylic
Acrylic baths are moulded sheet reinforced underneath. There is no rust, but cracks, holes and scratches happen, and a crack only stays repaired if it’s supported underneath.
About our bath repair in Dyffryn Cellwen
We repair just the damaged spot and colour-match it to the bath, which is far cheaper than replacing a fitted bath and the tiles around it. Most baths can be used again the next day. Common call-outs are for a kit repair that didn’t last and chips on the rim or sides, across cast iron enamel, acrylic and whirlpool & spa baths.
Your repair is guaranteed for a year, as with every job we do.

FAQs for Dyffryn Cellwen
Do you cover the entire of Neath Port Talbot?
All of Neath Port Talbot, and the rest of the UK. There is no extra charge for travel.
Do I need to be at home?
We need someone to let us in. After that, you can carry on with your day.
What information do you need?
Just pictures, your postcode and a contact number. On the day, access to the room.
Is a bath repair permanent?
A properly prepared repair should last a long time, and ours come with a one-year guarantee. Gentle cleaning helps.
How long does the repair take to cure?
Normally the following day. We confirm the time before we leave.
Do you work for landlords and businesses?
Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as homeowners in Dyffryn Cellwen.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
Generally, when the rest is in good condition. A repair avoids removal and making good. We’ll tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.
Is there any odour?
A little, depending on the job. Open windows and an extractor fan help.
Honest limits
A repair is not always the answer, and we would rather say so up front. Repairs won’t solve:
- Flexing caused by a failed cradle or loose feet
- Acrylic cracks with no access behind them
- Wear across the whole surface, which needs re-enamelling
Send us pictures and we will tell you honestly.
Surfaces we repair
- Pressed steel enamel
- Roll-top & freestanding
- Whirlpool & spa baths
- Cast iron enamel
- Acrylic
The process
Nothing needs to be moved out of the room beforehand. Everything we use comes in the van with us, put protection down and get going once we have agreed what we’re doing. Most jobs take a few hours, depending on the damage, and you’re welcome to carry on with your day while we work.
- We start by looking at the damage and confirming the plan with you.
- Loose enamel, rust and dirt are removed so the repair can bond.
- We build up the filler in layers, shaping it to the bath.
- The colour is tinted by hand until it matches.
- The repair is polished to the same gloss as the bath and left to cure.
Getting ready for the visit
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
How to get a price
A quote takes minutes to ask for: take one close-up and one wider shot of the bath, add your postcode and send them to us. What comes back is a fixed quote, not a guess.

Common problems we fix in Dyffryn Cellwen
Heavy toiletries are the biggest single cause of chips. Fittings cause damage too: water sits around them, and any chip there soon rusts.
Signs it’s time to call us include:
- Chips under the taps
- Rust spots around the plughole
- A failed DIY repair that’s discoloured or lifting
- Chips caused by builders
Questions to ask before you book
- If travel is included in the price
- What protection goes down before work starts
- When it can be used again
- Who turns up on the day
Work for landlords and builders
Hospitality businesses can’t afford rooms out of action for long, so we keep visits short and tidy. We’ll fit around changeovers where we can.
Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.
Should you replace it?
A new bath costs more than the bath itself: removal and disposal, plumbing, a new panel, tiling and decorating. A repair is one job, done in one visit. Our bath repair starts from £95. Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Photos let us give you the exact figure.
Why book with us
- One price list for the entire UK
- One-year guarantee on every repair
- CHAS and Constructionline accredited
- Honest advice, even when it means no job

DIY kit or professional repair?
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully and work on a clean, dry surface, and give it the full curing time. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.
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.
Looking after it afterwards
Looking after the surface is easy:
- Have new chips seen to early
- Put a towel in the bath if you’re working above it
- Give the bath a quick rinse after use
- Avoid scourers, wire wool and gritty cream cleaners
Treat the repaired area like the rest of the bath: warm water, washing-up liquid and a soft cloth. Avoid scourers and gritty cream cleaners.
Stop using the bath if a crack lets water through until it’s repaired. Leaks under a bath can damage floors and ceilings.
