How we handle bath repair in Lightwood Green
A typical bath repair is a few hours’ work, and the bath is back in use the following day. There’s no need to book a plumber or tiler, because the bath does not move. Our repair technicians work on roll-top & freestanding, whirlpool & spa baths and acrylic, and common reasons people contact us are scuffs and scratches in the surface and snagging damage from a refit.
Peace of mind is built in: each job carries a one-year guarantee, and we explain what it covers before booking.

Should I try a DIY kit first?
A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it won’t stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is typically cheaper.
Work for landlords and builders
For anyone letting property in or around Lightwood Green, we will quote for several properties at once. Just send pictures for each address and we will come back with a combined price.
Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover, saving last-minute replacements. We can visit several plots in one trip.
Should you replace it?
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 entire surface is worn, re-enamelling may make more sense, and we will tell you. Our bath repair starts from £95. 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 combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.
What you get with us
- Work done at your home or business
- One visit for most repairs
- We will tell you if it’s not worth repairing

When to call us in Lightwood Green
Heavy toiletries are the biggest single cause of chips, with dropped shower heads close behind. Fittings cause damage too: water collects there, so chips nearby rust quickly.
Clients usually contact us about:
- Damage beneath the taps
- Rusty patches near the plughole
- Damage done while the bathroom was being fitted
- Holes from dropped items
What your quote should include
- Whether the colour is mixed to match
- Aftercare advice
- Whether a trained technician does the job
- How long the guarantee is and what it covers
How the visit works
On the day itself, there’s little for you to do. Let us in and show us the room, and we’ll get on with it. The job generally runs to two to three hours for most chips, tidy-up included.
- First, we check the damage against your photos and agree the plan.
- Loose enamel, rust and dirt are removed so the repair can bond.
- The damage is filled in layers and shaped to the curve of the bath.
- The colour is tinted by hand until it matches.
- The repair is polished to the same gloss as the bath and left to cure.
Preparing for the visit
- Point us to the nearest place to park
- Open a window if you can
- Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
Getting a price
The quickest way to a price is to send two or three photos through our quote form or ring us. We’ll say right away if a repair is the right fix.
Advice
Keeping it looking good
After the repair has cured, a few habits help it last:
- Keep metal cans and razors off the surface
- Fix dripping taps early to stop staining and limescale
- Cover the bath during DIY or decorating
- Check that an acrylic bath does not move when you stand in it
Care for the repair the same way as the bath: a soft cloth and washing-up liquid is all it needs. Keep scouring pads and gritty cleaners away from it.
Rust spreads under enamel faster than most people expect. Left for months, a small chip can grow into a large rust patch, so early repair keeps the cost down.
Different materials, different repairs
Cast iron
Cast iron baths are thick and very strong, finished with fired enamel. A chip down to the iron can rust, but the bath itself lasts for generations, so it’s always worth repairing.
Acrylic
An acrylic bath is a moulded sheet strengthened from below. They don’t rust, but they can crack, scratch or be holed, and cracks need support from behind to stay fixed.

Will the repair last?

Do you cover the entire of Wrexham?
Across the UK, so Lightwood Green is covered. Prices don’t change with location.
Will the repair show?
The goal is a repair that blends in. The rest of the bath’s condition makes a difference.
Can you repair a failed DIY repair?
Yes, we do this often. We strip it out, deal with any rust and repair it again.
Can you match an avocado or pink bath?
Yes, we match coloured baths too. The colour is tinted by hand on the day.
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.
