How we price bath repair

Repairs from £95. A fixed quote means you know the cost before booking. We look at:

  • How many items we do on one visit
  • How many areas need work
  • The type of damage
  • Unusual colours or finishes

Our prices are the same across the UK, so there’s no premium for Gelli. What changes the price is the job itself: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

How to get a fixed quote

We price nearly every job from pictures. This is what we need:

  • A wider photo showing the entire bath
  • Details of any past repairs
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit

Pricing is simple: take a close-up of the damage and a photo from further back, send them over with your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price. There’s no charge for the quote and you are under no obligation.

About our bath repair in Gelli

Whatever the damage, the aim is the same: a repair that’s smooth, sound and hard to spot. We prepare the area properly, fill and shape it, then match the colour and gloss so it sits flush with the rest of the bath. We work on whirlpool & spa baths, acrylic and cast iron enamel, and people most often call us about hairline or through cracks in acrylic and scratches you can feel with a fingernail.

A one-year guarantee comes as standard, so you’re covered after the visit.

Gelli: your questions answered

Can you quote from photos?

Normally, yes. Clear pictures let us give you a fixed quote without visiting.

Can tenants book a repair?

Of course. Ask your landlord first, and we can send them the quote if that helps.

Which areas do you work in?

All of Pembrokeshire, and the rest of the UK. Travel is included in the price.

What do you need from me?

A close-up, a wider photo and your postcode. Then we will agree a date.

Is there a guarantee?

Yes: twelve months. If there’s a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.

Can a cracked acrylic bath be fixed?

In most cases. We reinforce the crack from behind, then fill and refinish the front, so we need access under the bath.

Is it OK to have pets in the house?

Keep pets and children away from the work area on the day, mainly so nothing gets touched before it has cured.

Are there extra charges for Gelli?

We do not add a call-out fee. The fixed price covers the visit and the work.

Aftercare tips

How the surface is treated afterwards matters. Here’s what we suggest:

  • Get a dripping tap fixed promptly
  • Put a towel in the bath if you’re working above it
  • Clean with warm water and a mild detergent
  • Ensure an acrylic bath is firm underfoot

Keep metal objects like razors and cans off the surface, because they can mark the enamel. A dripping tap should be fixed early, too.

A small chip is a quick job. Leave them and they collect dirt, stain and, on metal baths, rust, so early repair saves time and money.

How it works

Visits start with a quick look at the job together, so there are no surprises. After that, protection goes down around the work area and the work begins. Allow a morning or an afternoon.

  1. We start by looking at the damage and confirming the plan with you.
  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. Finally, it’s polished to match the shine and left to cure.

How to prepare

  • Make sure the area is dry
  • Let us know if it has been repaired before
  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat

DIY repairs versus a professional job

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair will not last.

If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely and work on a clean, dry surface, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.

What your bath is made of matters

Pressed steel

Steel baths and trays have a thin metal body under the enamel. Once a chip exposes it, rust follows quickly, so we treat and seal the metal before filling.

Cast iron

Cast iron baths are so heavy that repairing in place makes obvious sense. The enamel is the part that wears or chips, and that’s what we repair.

Why repair rather than replace?

Replacing a bath rarely stops at the bath: 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. Repairing the damage avoids all of that. Prices start from £95. Set against the cost of replacement, repairing normally costs far less, because there is no removal, plumbing or making good. The quote lists exactly what you’re paying for.

Why us?

  • CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited
  • No extra charge for your area
  • Work done at your home or business
  • A year’s guarantee on all work

See our prices page or guide to resurfacing and replacement costs.

For landlords and businesses

We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, fixing chips and scratches before handover so nothing needs replacing. We are CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.

We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Gelli as well as homeowners. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it costs much less than replacing.

When a repair isn’t the answer

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

  • Cracks in acrylic we can’t reach from underneath
  • A bath worn all over, where resurfacing makes more sense
  • Leaks from the waste or overflow fittings (a plumber’s job)
