Common questions in Garneddwen
Is a holed acrylic bath repairable?
Typically. Photos of the hole and the underside help us check.
Can landlords book you?
Yes. We carry out repairs for householders, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses across Powys.
Is there a call-out fee?
There is no separate call-out charge. Your fixed quote includes everything.
How quickly can you book me in?
It depends on the time of year and where you are. Send pictures with your postcode and we’ll reply with the earliest dates.
Will the repair show?
On a glossy bath, you’ll struggle to find it. On worn enamel, it can look shinier than the rest.
Which areas do you work in?
Across the UK, and that includes Garneddwen. Prices do not change with location.
Will there be a smell?
There may be a mild smell during the work.
I rent my home. Can I book you?
Yes, but check with your landlord or agent first. Landlords are frequently glad to have it sorted before the end of a tenancy.
What affects the price in Garneddwen
Prices start from £95. Every quote is fixed and free. What we look at:
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- What the surface is made of
- What kind of damage it is
- The colour and finish to match
Compared with replacing, repairing normally costs far less, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.
How to get a fixed quote
We price nearly every job from photos. This is what we need:
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- The material, if you know it
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
The quickest way to a price is to send a couple of pictures using our quote form or call us. We’ll tell you honestly if a repair is the right fix.
Repairs by material
Composite and resin
Composite baths are dense and solid, and frequently 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. They don’t rust, but they can crack, scratch or be holed, and cracks need support from behind to stay fixed.

When a repair is not the answer
To be straight with you, there are a few things a repair will not fix:
- Acrylic cracks with no access behind them
- Rust that has eaten right through a steel bath
- Leaking fittings, which need a plumber
Send us pictures and we will tell you honestly.

Repairing versus replacing in Garneddwen
A new bath brings a chain of other jobs: the tiles sitting on the rim tend to break, the panel may not fit the new one, and the plumbing has to be disconnected and refitted. A repair skips all of it. Prices start from £95. A repair is priced on what needs doing, not your postcode. You’ll see the full price before booking, with nothing added on the day.

How it works
Nothing needs to be moved out of the room beforehand. We bring everything we need with us, put protection down and start once you are happy with the plan. Most jobs take a few hours, and you can get on with other things while we’re there.
- We start by cleaning the damage and taking out loose enamel and rust.
- The chip or crack is filled, then sanded level with the bath.
- We tint the finish on the day to suit your bath’s shade of white or colour.
- We build up the finish and polish it into the surrounding enamel.
- The repair is left to cure, and most baths can be used the day after.
Before we arrive
- Open a window if you can
- Let us know about parking or access
- Clear the area around the damage
How to get a price

DIY repairs versus a professional job

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 typically cheaper.
