Should I try a DIY kit first?
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed 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, a professional repair is worth it.
Your questions about bath repair in Gwyddgrug
How do I get a price for bath repair in Gwyddgrug?
Prices start from £95. We give a fixed quote based on photos of the damage. Send a close-up and a picture of the entire item with your SA39 postcode.
Do you come to Gwyddgrug?
Yes. We work across the UK and travel to Gwyddgrug and the rest of Carmarthenshire. Send us pictures for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
Can you fix rust around the plughole?
Yes. We take out the rust and any loose enamel, fill the area, then colour-match the finish.
Do you hold any accreditations?
Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.
Can you repair a crack in an acrylic bath?
Generally, yes, if we can reach the underside to reinforce it. Check under the bath panel, or send us a photo.
Is repairing better than replacing?
Usually, when the rest is in good condition. A repair avoids removal and making good. We’ll tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.
Can you do more than one item on the same visit?
Of course, and it generally saves money. Send pictures of everything together and you will get one combined price.
Is there any odour?
There can be some smell while we work, so we ventilate the room. It clears as the materials cure.
What we’re called out for in Gwyddgrug
Most bath damage comes from something dropped: a shampoo bottle, a shower head, a tile or a tool during a refit. On enamelled baths, any chip down to the metal will start to rust.
Look out for any of the following:
- Scratches you can feel with a fingernail
- Cracks in an acrylic bath
- Impact holes in acrylic
- An old repair that has yellowed or come loose

What bath repair costs
Repairs from £95. We give every job a fixed price from pictures. These are the things that affect it:
- The material
- Unusual colours or finishes
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- Access to the area
A repair normally costs much less than people expect, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Send pictures and we’ll give you the exact figure.
How to get a fixed quote
Photographing the damage takes a minute, and it saves a visit. Please include:
- One picture of the entire bath
- The material, if you know it
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
Call 0345 017 0787 or use the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the entire bath, we can price the job.
Repairing versus replacing in Gwyddgrug
If the rest of the bath is in good condition, a repair is almost always the better choice. It’s quicker, cheaper and far less disruptive, and the bathroom stays as it is. If the whole surface is worn, re-enamelling may make more sense, and we will tell you. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. There are no surprise extras on the day. What we quote from your pictures is what you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.

What a repair cannot fix
Not everything can be repaired, and we’ll tell you before we start. We can’t fix:
- Leaks from the waste or overflow fittings (a plumber’s job)
- Rust that has eaten right through a steel bath
- A whole bath that is dull or worn, where a full re-enamel is the better fix

Repairs by material
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.
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, so it’s always worth repairing.

What happens on the day
You don’t need to empty the room beforehand. We bring everything we need with us, put protection down and get going once we’ve agreed what we’re doing. It generally takes two to three hours for most chips, and you’re welcome to carry on with your day while we work.
- First, the area is cleaned and any loose enamel or rust is removed.
- Next we fill the damage and sand it smooth and level.
- The colour is mixed on the spot to match your bath.
- Finish coats go on, then the repair is polished to blend in.
- Once it has cured, typically by the day after, the bath is ready to use.
Before we arrive
- Make sure the room can be ventilated
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
- Keep a parking space free if you can
Getting a price
A quote takes minutes to ask for: photograph the damage, then the entire bath, add your postcode and send them to us. You’ll get a fixed price, not an estimate.
