Should I try a DIY kit first?
For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. 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.
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair will not last.
Bath repair in Gwehelog Common, done in place

Different materials, different repairs
Pressed steel
Under the enamel of a steel bath is thin metal. Once a chip exposes it, rust follows quickly, so we treat and seal the metal before filling.
Composite and resin
Composite baths are dense and solid, and often freestanding. Chips and scratches can be filled and colour-matched, just like other baths.
What we are called out for in Gwehelog Common
Rust tends to begin where water collects, by the plughole, beneath dripping taps or in an unrepaired chip. Once water reaches the steel or iron, rust spreads under the enamel.
It’s worth getting a quote if you see:

- A chipped rim or side
- Chips caused by builders

What your quote should include

- What protection goes down before work starts
What we do, step by step
Arrival times are agreed in advance, so you are not left guessing. Once we’re there, the work takes a few hours, depending on the damage for most jobs. We leave the room clean and ready to use once it has cured.
- Dust sheets and masking go down around the bath.
- The damaged area is cleaned, keyed and degreased, and any rust is treated.
- We fill it, let it set, then sand it flush.
- Colour and gloss are matched to the surrounding surface.
- We clear up and give you the curing time, normally until the next day.
Getting ready for the visit
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
- Have a window or extractor fan available

Why repair rather than replace?
A new bath costs more than the bath itself: removal and disposal, plumbing, a new panel, tiling and decorating. A repair is one job, done in one visit. Prices start from £95. Our prices are the same across the UK, with no extra for Gwehelog Common. The job itself decides the price: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.
Why book with us
- A fixed quote before you book
- Repair technicians who travel to you, UK-wide
- No need to remove anything
- Most jobs done in one visit

When a repair is not the answer
Not everything can be repaired, and we will tell you before we start. We cannot fix:
- A whole bath that is dull or worn, where a full re-enamel is the better fix
- A steel bath rusted through
- Flexing caused by a failed cradle or loose feet
Not sure? Send pictures and we will give you a straight answer before you book.
What we work on
- Acrylic
- Roll-top & freestanding

FAQs for Gwehelog Common
Do you work for landlords and businesses?
Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as homeowners across Monmouthshire.
It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?
Normally, yes. We remove the old repair before doing a new one, so mention it when you send pictures.
I rent my home. Can I book you?
Yes, though it’s best to check with your landlord first. Landlords are often glad to have it sorted.
Is my repair covered?
Yes: twelve months. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.
Will I be able to see the repair?
The goal is a repair that blends in. How well it disappears depends on the condition of the rest of the bath.
Do you repair coloured baths?
Yes. The colour is mixed on site to suit your bath, including older coloured suites.
What happens if you find more damage?
If we find something the photos didn’t show, we explain it first. You decide whether to go ahead.
What does bath repair cost?
Repairs from £95. Because every job differs, we price from photos. You know the full cost before anything is booked.
What bath repair costs
Repairs from £95. Every quote is fixed and free. What we take into account:
- The colour and finish to match
- Whether we combine several jobs
- How many areas need work
- What the surface is made of
No two jobs are quite the same, so each one is priced on its own. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all make a difference, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.
Quotes from your photos
When you take your photos, a few simple things make all the difference:
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- Any details about the material
- Something in shot to show the size
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
Getting a price is easy: snap the damage close up and then the entire item, send them to us with your postcode, and you’ll get a fixed quote back. There’s no charge for the quote and you are under no obligation.
Aftercare tips
Looking after the surface is easy:
- Keep abrasive pads and gritty cleaners away from the bath
- Fix dripping taps early to stop staining and limescale
- Put a towel in the bath if you are working above it
- Rinse it down after each bath
A repaired bath needs no special treatment. Avoid bleach-based and gritty cleaners.
If water is getting through a crack, stop using the bath until it’s repaired. Water under the bath can damage the floor and the ceiling below.
