About our bath repair in Glan-rhyd
A repair fixes just the damaged area and blends it into the rest of the bath, which is far cheaper than replacing a fitted bath and the tiles around it. Most baths can be used again the following day. If you’re dealing with a hole punched through by something heavy and scratches you can feel with a fingernail, we can generally put it right, whatever the material.
Whatever the size of the job, it’s backed by a one-year guarantee in Glan-rhyd and across Gwynedd.

What happens on the day
Arrival times are agreed in advance, so you are not left guessing. On site, it takes a morning or an afternoon. The room is left tidy and ready to use once it has cured.
- First, we check the damage against your pictures and agree the plan.
- Any rust and loose material comes out, and the area is degreased.
- We build up the filler in layers, shaping it to the bath.
- We tint the finish by hand to match the bath.
- Finally, it’s polished to match the shine and left to cure.
Before we arrive
- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
- Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
How to get a price
Pricing is simple: take a close-up of the damage and a picture from further back, send them over with your postcode, and you’ll get a fixed quote back. Quotes are free and you are under no obligation.
Related advice
Should I try a DIY kit first?
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.
A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it won’t stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.
Aftercare tips
Simple care helps the repair last. We recommend:
- Avoid scourers, wire wool and gritty cream cleaners
- Store metal items away from the bath
- Use a soft cloth and washing-up liquid for everyday cleaning
- Fix dripping taps early to stop staining and limescale
Clean with mild, non-abrasive cleaners and avoid dropping heavy items on the repaired area. Deal with new chips early, before rust sets in.
A chip on a metal bath shouldn’t be left. Once water reaches the metal, rust begins, and a rust spot is a bigger repair than a clean chip.

Repairs by material
Cast iron
Cast iron baths are thick and very strong, with a fused enamel surface. A chip down to the iron can rust, but the bath itself lasts for generations, which makes it well worth repairing.
Acrylic
Acrylic feels warm and is light, but it needs firm support underneath. Cracks are strengthened from behind before the front is finished.
Should you replace it?
Many people think a damaged bath means a new one. In most cases it does not: a repair keeps the bath in service for years, and costs far less than the disruption of a replacement. Prices start from £95. We charge the same wherever you are, so there’s no premium for Glan-rhyd. The job itself decides the price: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

Glan-rhyd questions
Can you quote from pictures?
In nearly every case. If pictures do not show enough, we’ll ask for another angle.
How long before I can use the bath?
Usually the following day. We confirm the time before we leave.
Can landlords book you?
Yes, frequently. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.
Will it make a mess?
Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and we clean up when we have finished.
Are there extra charges for Glan-rhyd?
There is no separate call-out charge. Your fixed price includes everything.
Can you repair a crack in an acrylic bath?
Typically, yes, if we can reach the underside to reinforce it. Check under the bath panel, or send us a photo.
Can you redo an old repair?
Yes, we do this frequently. The old material comes out, any rust is treated, then we repair it properly.
Can tenants book a repair?
Of course. Check with your landlord; we can send the quote to them too.
