Can I fix it myself?
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is usually the cheaper route.
What we do, step by step
The work is clean and fairly quiet, so you can carry on at home. We protect the area first, then the work takes a few hours. Before we leave, we explain how soon it can be used and how to look after it.
- We protect the bath and the floor around it.
- The damaged area is cleaned, keyed and degreased.
- Filler goes in and is sanded flush once it has set.
- We match both the colour and the shine.
- We clear up and give you the curing time, normally until the next day.
How to prepare
- Let the surface dry out before the visit
- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible

Related advice
Repair or replace: which is better?
Swapping a damaged bath for a new one normally means a plumber, lifting out the old bath, making good the tiles and panel and getting rid of the old bath. A repair deals only with the damage in a single visit. Prices start from £95. The price reflects the work involved, not your postcode. The full price is agreed before booking, with nothing added on the day.

Common questions in Gaer-fawr
Is the work guaranteed?
All our work carries a one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.
When can I have a bath again?
Normally by the following day, though it depends on what we have done.
It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?
Yes, we frequently do. It can add a little time, which we include in the quote.
Will the repair show?
The goal is a repair that blends in. How well it disappears depends on the condition of the rest of the bath, and we’ll tell you what to expect.
Do you cover the entire of Monmouthshire?
Everywhere in the UK, Gaer-fawr included. Travel is included in the price.
Will it make a mess?
No. The work area is masked and covered, and we leave the room clean.
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
Yes, but check with your landlord or agent first. Many landlords are happy for a repair to be arranged.
Is a holed acrylic bath repairable?
Usually. Send us a photo of the hole and one from under the bath if you can.
When we’d advise against a repair
Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:
- Flexing caused by a failed cradle or loose feet
- Cracks in parts of an acrylic bath we can’t get to from below
- Leaking fittings, which need a plumber
If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think.

Aftercare tips
Good habits make a big difference to how long a repair lasts. Here’s what we suggest:
- Store metal items away from the bath
- If an acrylic bath flexes, have its feet adjusted
- Rinse it down after each bath
- Use a soft cloth and washing-up liquid for everyday cleaning
A repaired bath needs no special treatment. Skip bleach and gritty creams and give it a rinse after each bath.
Tape over a fresh chip or crack until it’s repaired, so water cannot get in. Take it off before we arrive.
Repairs by material
Cast iron
Cast iron is heavy and rigid, finished with fired enamel. Chips can rust if left, but the bath itself lasts for generations, so it’s always worth repairing.
Acrylic
Acrylic is light and warm to the touch, but it relies on good support. Repairs to cracks are reinforced from the back.
