Bath repair at your home in Llanarmon-yn-Ial
A repair fixes just the damaged area and blends it into the rest of the bath, which costs far less than replacing a fitted bath and the tiles around it. You can generally use the bath the day after. Typical jobs include a chip where the taps sit and scratches you can feel with a fingernail, on acrylic, cast iron enamel and whirlpool & spa baths.
All our work comes with our one-year guarantee, wherever you are in Flintshire.

DIY kit or professional repair?
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is typically the cheaper route.
Llanarmon-yn-Ial questions
Do I have to be there?
Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. You do not need to watch us work.
Can you repair a hole in a bath?
Frequently, if there’s access underneath. We back the hole, fill it and refinish the surface.
Can you repair a crack in an acrylic bath?
Often, yes, if we can reach the underside to reinforce it. Check under the bath panel, or send us a photo.
It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?
Generally, yes. Tell us what was done before.
How much does bath repair cost in Llanarmon-yn-Ial?
Prices start from £95. The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from photos. You’ll get a fixed figure before booking.
Can you match an avocado or pink bath?
Yes. The colour is mixed on site to suit your bath, including pastel and older colours.
How long does the repair take to cure?
Generally within a day, though it depends on what we have done.
Are you accredited?
Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.
When we’d advise against a repair
A repair isn’t always the answer, and we will tell you before we start. We cannot fix:
- A bath worn all over, where resurfacing makes more sense
- Rust that has eaten right through a steel bath
- Acrylic cracks with no access behind them
Not sure? Send photos and we will give you a straight answer.
Surfaces we repair
- Pressed steel enamel
- Roll-top & freestanding
- Whirlpool & spa baths
- Acrylic
- Cast iron enamel
Repair or replace: which is better?
A new bath brings a chain of other jobs: tiles along the rim typically 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. Prices start from £95. Set against the cost of replacement, repairing normally costs far less, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. The quote lists exactly what you are paying for.

What bath repair costs
Repairs from £95. We charge the same across the UK, including Llanarmon-yn-Ial. The price reflects:
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- What the surface is made of
- Doing more than one item at once
- The colour and finish to match
It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.
Send photos for a quote
A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. Try to include:
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- What it’s made of, if you know
- A wider photo showing the entire bath
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
Most customers in Llanarmon-yn-Ial get their price from pictures. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we’ll send back a fixed quote and some dates.
What we are called out for in Llanarmon-yn-Ial
The usual cause is something heavy dropped into the bath, and building work is a common culprit. Acrylic baths crack for a different reason: the bath is not properly supported, so it flexes under weight.
Customers generally contact us about:
- Damage done while the bathroom was being fitted
- Cracks in an acrylic bath
- Rusty patches near the plughole
- Holes from dropped items
Questions to ask before you book
- Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?
- Who will actually do the work
- What happens if they find more damage
- How the room is protected while they work
The process
Once we are through the door, the aim is to do the job without disturbing the rest of your home. Surfaces nearby are masked off, the work takes two to three hours for most chips, and we finish by cleaning up and talking you through the result.
- First, the area is cleaned and any loose enamel or rust is removed.
- Next we fill the damage and sand it smooth and level.
- We mix the colour on the day to match your bath’s exact shade.
- We apply the finish coats and polish the repair so it blends in.
- Once it has cured, usually by the day after, the bath is ready to use.
Preparing for the visit
- Keep a parking space free if you can
- Let us know which floor the room is on
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
Ask for a price
Getting a price is easy: snap the damage close up and then the entire item, send them to us with your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote. Quotes are free and no obligation.

Aftercare tips
So the finish stays in good condition:
- Protect the bath with a towel when doing jobs nearby
- Rinse the bath after use, especially in hard water areas
- Stick to mild cleaners and a soft cloth
- Check that an acrylic bath does not move when you stand in it
Use gentle, non-abrasive cleaners and avoid dropping heavy items on the repaired area. Deal with new chips early, before rust sets in.
If an acrylic bath has a crack, stop showering in it until it’s repaired. Every use opens the crack a little more, and it can start to leak underneath.
Different materials, different repairs
Cast iron
Cast iron baths are thick and very strong, finished with fired enamel. Chips can rust if left, but the body of the bath lasts a very long time, which makes it well worth repairing.
Composite and resin
Stone resin and composite baths are heavy and solid, and often freestanding. Chips and scratches can be filled and colour matched, in much the same way.
