Bath repair in Llan-y-pwll, done in place

Repairing baths is what we do most. A chip by the taps, a crack in the base and a rust spot by the plughole are all repaired in place, usually in a single visit. We are frequently asked to fix snagging damage from a refit and hairline or through cracks in acrylic, in pressed steel enamel, whirlpool & spa baths and cast iron enamel.

The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If something is not right in that time, we come back and put it right.

Llan-y-pwll questions

How long does the repair take to cure?

Most baths can be used the following day. We will tell you the exact curing time when we finish.

Can you repair a hole in a bath?

Often, if there is access underneath. We back the hole, fill it and refinish the surface.

Can a cracked acrylic bath be fixed?

Often, 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 photo.

Do you work in Llan-y-pwll?

Yes. We work across the UK and come to Llan-y-pwll and the rest of Wrexham. Send us pictures for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?

Typically, if the item is otherwise sound. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. If replacing would be better, we will say so.

Are there extra charges for Llan-y-pwll?

Travel is included in the price, and we charge the same wherever you are.

Do I need to be at home?

Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. After that, you can carry on with your day.

Are you a vetted contractor?

We are accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.

When we would advise against a repair

We’d rather lose a job than do one that will not last, so here’s what a repair cannot put right:

  • Leaking fittings, which need a plumber
  • A whole bath that is dull or worn, where a full re-enamel is the better fix
  • Flexing caused by a failed cradle or loose feet

Send us pictures and we will tell you honestly before booking.

Materials we repair

  • Roll-top & freestanding
  • Pressed steel enamel
  • Cast iron enamel
  • Whirlpool & spa baths
  • Acrylic

The process

Visits start with a quick look at the job together, so you know exactly what we are doing. Next, we cover and mask everything nearby and we start. Allow a few hours, depending on the damage.

  1. First, the area is cleaned and any loose enamel or rust is removed.
  2. We fill the damage and sand it flush with the surrounding surface.
  3. We mix the colour on the day to match your bath’s exact shade.
  4. We apply the finish coats and polish the repair so it blends in.
  5. Once it has cured, generally by the day after, the bath is ready to use.

Preparing for the visit

  • Open a window if you can
  • Let the surface dry out before the visit
  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children

Getting a price

For landlords and businesses

We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Llan-y-pwll as well as householders. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it usually costs far less than a refit.

We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams in Wrexham and across the UK. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which matters when someone is living in the home.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.

It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is typically cheaper.

Repair or replace: which is better?

Think about the hidden costs of a new bath: taking out the old one, plumbing, tiling, a panel and redecorating. With a repair, it’s one visit and one price. Prices start from £95. It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

Why book with us

  • One-year guarantee on every repair
  • Technicians who travel to you, UK-wide
  • Typically one visit, start to finish
  • No need to remove anything

When to call us in Llan-y-pwll

Glass and heavy bottles cause more chips than anything else. Taps and wastes cause problems too: water sits around them, and any chip there soon rusts.

Clients generally contact us about:

  • A failed DIY repair that’s discoloured or lifting
  • A chipped rim or side
  • Chips under the taps
  • Rusty patches near the plughole

Questions to ask before you book

  • Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price
  • How the colour is matched
  • What the guarantee covers, and for how long
  • How the room is protected while they work

10 questions to ask before booking

Different materials, different repairs

Composite and resin

Composite baths are dense and solid. Chips and scratches can be filled and colour-matched, just like other baths.

Acrylic

Acrylic baths are moulded sheet reinforced underneath. There is no rust, but cracks, holes and scratches happen, and cracks need support from behind to stay fixed.

How we price bath repair

Repairs from £95. There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price depends on:

  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • The type of damage
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • How many areas need work

Instead of hourly rates, we price the entire job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access.

Quotes from your photos

Phone pictures are fine, there is no need for anything special. Just make sure we can see:

  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • Natural light rather than flash
  • Where you are, by postcode
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area

You do not need a survey visit. Nearly every job can be priced from photos: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we will come back to you with a fixed figure.
