- Holes from dropped items
- A chip where the taps sit
- Damage done while the bathroom was being fitted
- Deep scratches in acrylic

Bath repair at your home in Gwynedd
You don’t need a new bath because of a chip. Our repair technicians fill, shape and refinish the damage, with the colour mixed on site so the repair is hard to spot. Our technicians work on cast iron enamel, roll-top & freestanding and acrylic, and people most frequently call us about rust by the waste and overflow and a kit repair that didn’t last.
We guarantee the work for a year. If there is a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it.

Where we work around Gwynedd
Gwynedd (Welsh: Gwynedd) is about 30 miles south of Bangor, in Gwynedd. From the centre of Gwynedd to the outlying streets, we offer exactly the same service: a fixed price, a tidy visit and a guarantee. We work in all 165 towns and villages across Gwynedd, from the larger towns to small villages. We work right across the region, from Gwynedd to Liverpool (64 miles away).
Jobs in LL44 and LL43 work the same way as everywhere else we cover. That includes homes on Ffordd y Briwg, Ffordd y Llan and Ffordd Gors and the roads around them. Nearby, we also work in Dyffryn Ardudwy (1 mile south-west), Llanddwywe-is-y-graig (1 mile south-east), Llanddwywe (1 mile south-west), Tal-y-bont (1 mile south) and Llanaber (4 miles south). Further out, we also cover Tywyn (14 miles south), Pwllheli (15 miles north-west), Dolgellau (9 miles east), Porthmadog (10 miles north), Blaenau Ffestiniog (15 miles north-east) and Pen-dre (14 miles south).
Local landmarks in Gwynedd
In Gwynedd, that means homes near St Enddwyn's Church, Ael-y-Bryn Hotel and Ysgol Dyffryn Ardudwy, among other places. The closest station to Gwynedd is Dyffryn Ardudwy station, about 0.7 miles west of the centre. Nearby you will also find Erwr Castell (1 mile west). For a walk, there’s Llyn Irddyn and Moelfre.
Can I fix it myself?
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, then guarantee it for a year.
A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it will not stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.
For landlords and businesses
If you manage property in Gwynedd, we will quote for several properties at once. Send photos for each one and we will come back with a combined price.
Rental properties take more wear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.
How to look after the repair
After the repair has cured, a few habits help it last:
- Stick to mild cleaners and a soft cloth
- Put a towel in the bath if you’re working above it
- Get any new chip repaired before it rusts
- Rinse the bath after use, especially in hard water areas
Treat the repaired area like the rest of the bath: warm water, washing-up liquid and a soft cloth. Keep scouring pads and gritty cleaners away from it.
A chip on a metal bath shouldn’t be left. Once water reaches the metal, rust begins, turning a quick repair into a bigger one.
How it works
It’s a tidy, low-fuss visit. We agree the arrival time in advance, cover and mask the work area, then carry out the work, which normally takes a few hours. If we find something your photos didn’t show, we’ll explain it before carrying on.
- We clean the area and remove any loose enamel or 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.
- Finish coats go on, then the repair is polished to blend in.
- We leave it to cure; you can typically use the bath the following day.
Preparing for the visit
- Open a window if you can
- Point us to the nearest place to park
- Let us know about parking or access
Ask for a price
Most clients in Gwynedd get their price from pictures. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we will send back a fixed quote and some dates.
Related advice
Repair or replace: which is better?
Replacing a bath rarely stops at the bath: tiles along the rim generally crack when it comes out, the panel may not fit the new one, and a plumber has to disconnect and reconnect everything. A repair skips all of it. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. A repair usually costs much less than people expect, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Photos let us give you the exact figure.
