About our bath repair in Felindre

Small damage on a bath is worth repairing early. Exposed metal on enamelled baths soon rusts, while cracks in acrylic grow each time the bath moves. Repairing it stops the damage getting worse. If you’re dealing with a cracked acrylic bath and chips under the taps, we can generally put it right, whatever the material.

All our work is covered by a one-year guarantee, wherever you are in Powys.

Do you need bath repair in Felindre?

The usual cause is something heavy dropped into the bath, and building work is a common culprit. Acrylic baths crack for a different reason: poor support underneath, so the bath flexes when it’s full.

Common reasons people in Felindre contact us include:

  • A chip where the taps sit
  • A cracked acrylic bath
  • Impact holes in acrylic
  • Rusty patches near the plughole

Before you book anyone

  • How long it needs to cure
  • A fixed price, and whether VAT is included
  • What preparation is included
  • How the colour is matched

Choosing a repair company

Different materials, different repairs

Composite and resin

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

Acrylic

An acrylic bath is a moulded sheet strengthened from below. There is no rust, but cracks, holes and scratches happen, and cracks need support from behind to stay fixed.

What a repair cannot fix

To be straight with you, there are a few things a repair won’t fix:

  • Water coming from the waste or taps rather than the bath
  • Metal that has corroded all the way through
  • A whole bath that’s dull or worn, where a full re-enamel is the better fix

If in doubt, send pictures and we will say what we think before booking.

What we work on

  • Cast iron enamel
  • Acrylic
  • Roll-top & freestanding
  • Pressed steel enamel
  • Whirlpool & spa baths

Repair or replace: which is better?

Replacing a fitted bath normally involves a plumber, removing 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. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. We charge the same wherever you are, with no extra for Felindre. The job itself decides the price: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

Why book with us

  • Most jobs done in one visit
  • We leave the room as we found it
  • Colours mixed by hand to suit your surface
  • One price list for the entire UK

Can I fix it myself?

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.

What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, and the work is guaranteed.

Your questions about bath repair in Felindre

Something went through my bath. Can it be fixed?

Generally. Photos of the hole and the underside help us check.

Will it make a mess?

Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and we clean up when we’ve finished.

Will the repair last?

A properly prepared repair should last a long time, and it’s guaranteed for a year. Gentle cleaning helps.

Does someone need to be in?

Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. After that, you can carry on with your day.

How soon can you come?

That depends on our diary for your area. We will offer you dates when we send your quote.

Is my repair covered?

All our work carries a one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.

What information do you need?

Use the quote form or ring 0345 017 0787, and we will take it from there.

I tried a repair kit. Can you fix it?

Yes. We remove the old filler and start again. Mention it when you send pictures.

Keeping it looking good

Much of the damage we repair could have been avoided. A few tips:

  • A dripping tap stains enamel, so fix it early
  • Put a towel in the bath if you’re working above it
  • Give the bath a quick rinse after use
  • Get any new chip repaired before it rusts

Keep metal objects like razors and cans off the surface, because they can mark the enamel. And fix dripping taps promptly.

Until we visit, a strip of waterproof tape over the damage helps, so water can’t get in. Take it off before we arrive.

How the visit works

We work cleanly and quietly. Protection goes down first, then the job itself takes a few hours. Before we leave, we explain how soon it can be used and how to look after it.

  1. First, we check the damage against your pictures and agree the plan.
  2. Loose enamel, rust and dirt are removed so the repair can bond.
  3. The damage is filled in layers and shaped to the curve of the bath.
  4. We tint the finish by hand to match the bath.
  5. The repair is polished to the same gloss as the bath and left to cure.

Preparing for the visit

  • Let us know if it has been repaired before
  • Point us to the nearest place to park
  • Ensure the room can be ventilated

Prices and what affects them

Repairs from £95. Prices are worked out job by job, from your photos. What matters most is:

  • The material and finish
  • How many areas need work
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out

A few things move the price: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

Send pictures for a quote

Most quotes are done from photos alone. To help us price it:

  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • A wider photo showing the entire bath
  • Something in shot to show the size
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus

A quote takes minutes to ask for: take one close-up and one wider shot of the bath, add your postcode and send them over. You’ll get a fixed price, not an estimate.
