How we handle bath repair in Highlight Park
Most bath damage, from chips and cracks to rust spots and holes, is repaired in place. There is no plumbing to disconnect, the tiles aren’t touched, and the finish is matched to the rest of the bath. We are often asked to fix impact holes in acrylic and chips on the rim or sides, in roll-top & freestanding, whirlpool & spa baths and pressed steel enamel.
We guarantee the work for a year. If there’s a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it.

Your questions about bath repair in Highlight Park
Can you price it without visiting?
Yes, almost always. Clear pictures let us give you a fixed price without visiting.
Do you cover the entire of the Vale of Glamorgan?
We cover the entire UK, including Highlight Park and the rest of the Vale of Glamorgan. Just include your postcode and we will offer you dates.
Will you leave a mess?
Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we take our waste away with us.
Can pets and children be at home?
Please keep children and pets out of the room during the visit. The rest of the house is unaffected.
Will the price change on the day?
If we find something the photos didn’t show, we explain it first. You decide whether to go ahead.
Are there extra charges for Highlight Park?
There’s no separate call-out charge. The fixed price covers the visit and the work.
What about rust by the waste?
Yes, it’s one of the most common repairs we do. The rust is cut back to clean metal and sealed before we fill and finish it.
Will the repair last?
It should, as long as the bath is firm and the area was prepared well. It’s covered by our one-year guarantee.
DIY repairs versus a professional job
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair won’t last.
A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it won’t stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.
Repairing versus replacing in Highlight Park
When the bath is otherwise sound, repairing beats replacing. It’s quicker, cheaper and far less disruptive, and the bathroom stays as it is. If the entire surface is worn, re-enamelling may make more sense, and we will tell you. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. What it costs depends on how much damage there is and what kind, the material and how many jobs we combine into one visit. We give a fixed quote from your pictures, so you know the cost before you book.
Why book with us
- Same prices wherever you are
- One visit for most repairs
- Every repair guaranteed for a year
- Nothing taken out or refitted
See our pricing or resurfacing vs replacement cost guide.
Aftercare tips
Most damage we see is avoidable. A few tips:
- Protect the bath with a towel when doing jobs nearby
- Don’t scrub with anything abrasive
- Keep metal cans and razors off the surface
- If an acrylic bath flexes, have its feet adjusted
There’s nothing special to do after a repair, beyond gentle cleaning. Skip bleach and gritty creams and rinse after use.
Rust under enamel spreads surprisingly quickly. A chip the size of a fingernail can become a much larger patch if it’s left for months, so early repair keeps the cost down.
Signs you need bath repair in Highlight Park
A cracked acrylic bath usually wasn’t supported properly. Legs that are not adjusted, a missing cradle or a soft floor let the bath move.
The most common problems we are called about are:
- Chips caused by builders
- Hairline or through cracks in acrylic
- Rusty patches near the plughole
- A chipped rim or side
What to look for in a quote
- How long it needs to cure

When we would advise against a repair
We’ll always be straight with you, so here’s what a repair will not do:
- A steel bath rusted through
- A bath that moves underfoot, until its support is fixed

If in doubt, send photos and we will say what we think.

Work for landlords and builders

How we price bath repair
Prices start from £95. A fixed quote means you know the cost before booking. We take into account:
- How much damage there is
- Doing more than one item at once
- The material and finish
- The colour and finish to match
A repair generally costs much less than people expect, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Send photos and we’ll give you the exact figure.
Getting a price from photos
Photographing the damage takes a minute. Try to send:
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- The material, if you know it
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- One picture of the whole bath
To get a price, send a couple of pictures using our quote form or call us. We’ll tell you honestly if a repair is the right fix.
What happens on the day
On the day itself, there’s little for you to do. Show us the job, point us to the room, and we’ll get on with it. Most visits take a morning or an afternoon, including clearing up.
- We start by cleaning the damage and taking out loose enamel and rust.
- Next we fill the damage and sand it smooth and level.
- 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.
- The repair is left to cure, and most baths can be used the following day.
How to prepare
- Open a window if you can
- Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
- Point us to the nearest place to park
