FAQs for Letterston
Are you a vetted contractor?
We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.
Can you repair a hole in a bath?
Often, if there is access underneath. We back the hole, fill it and refinish the surface.
Will the repair show?
On a glossy bath, you’ll struggle to find it. On older, dull enamel the repair can look glossier than the area around it.
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
Yes, but check with your landlord or agent first. Many landlords are happy for a repair to be arranged before the end of a tenancy.
Is a bath repair permanent?
Done properly, a repair lasts for years, and ours come with a one-year guarantee. Gentle cleaning helps it last.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
Usually, if the item is otherwise sound. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. We’ll tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.
Is a cracked acrylic bath repairable?
Normally, yes, as long as we can get to the back of the crack to support it. Take off the bath panel and check, or send us a picture.
How quickly can you book me in?
It depends on the time of year and where you are. We will offer you dates when we send your quote.
Bath repair at your home in Letterston
Most bath damage, from chips and cracks to rust spots and holes, is repaired in place. Nothing is unplumbed, your tiles stay as they are, and the repaired area is colour-matched so it blends in. If you’re dealing with deep scratches in acrylic and rust by the waste and overflow, we can typically put it right, on acrylic, pressed steel enamel and whirlpool & spa baths alike.
Big or small, you get the same one-year guarantee in Letterston and across Pembrokeshire.

Repair or replace in Letterston?

What affects the price in Letterston
Prices start from £95. There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price depends on:
- The colour and finish to match
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- How easy the damage is to reach
- How much damage there is
A few things move the price: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.
Getting a price from photos
Good pictures mean an accurate price. Here’s what we find most useful:
- A picture taken from further back
- Natural light rather than flash
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
The quickest way to a price is to send two or three pictures using our quote form or call us. We’ll say immediately if a repair is the right fix.
Aftercare tips
So the finish stays in good condition:
- Use a soft cloth and washing-up liquid for everyday cleaning
- Don’t scrub with anything abrasive
- Store metal items away from the bath
- Protect the bath with a towel when doing jobs nearby
For the first few days, keep heavy bottles off the repaired spot. After that, normal gentle cleaning is fine without abrasive products.
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.
Different materials, different repairs
Composite and resin
Stone resin and composite baths are heavy and solid. Chips and scratches can be filled and colour matched, just like other baths.
Pressed steel
Pressed steel is thinner and lighter, with an enamel finish like cast iron. Exposed steel rusts fast, particularly by the plughole, so early repairs matter.
Landlords, agents and businesses in Letterston
We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out photos. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.
Rental properties take more wear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.
How the visit works
A typical visit goes like this: we arrive on time, sheet and mask the area around the job, do the job and clear up. Allow a few hours, depending on the damage. Before we go, we’ll explain when it can be used and how to care for it.
- First, we check the damage against your photos 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.
- The colour is tinted by hand until it matches.
- Finally, it’s polished to match the shine and left to cure.
Preparing for the visit
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
- Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
Ask for a price
Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: photograph the damage, then the entire bath, include your postcode and send them to us. What comes back is a fixed quote, not a guess.

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.
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully and work on a clean, dry surface, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.
