Bath repair at your home in Llancaiach
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 doesn’t move. If you’re dealing with rust by the waste and overflow and snagging damage from a refit, we can typically put it right, whatever the material.
We guarantee the work for a year. If something is not right in that time, we come back and put it right.

DIY kit or professional repair?
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is typically the cheaper route.
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully and work on a clean, dry surface, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.
Materials and what they mean for the repair
Composite and resin
Composite baths are dense and solid, and often freestanding. Chips and scratches can be filled and colour-matched, just like other baths.
Pressed steel
Steel baths and trays have a thin metal body under the enamel. Once a chip exposes it, rust follows quickly, so we treat and seal the metal before filling.

Aftercare tips
A little care keeps the finish looking good. Our advice:
- Protect the bath with a towel when doing jobs nearby
- Don’t scrub with anything abrasive
- Stick to mild cleaners and a soft cloth
- Check that an acrylic bath does not move when you stand in it
Look after the repair the same way as the bath: warm water, washing-up liquid and a soft cloth. Avoid scourers and gritty cream cleaners.
If an acrylic bath has a crack, stop showering in it until it’s repaired. Each time it flexes, the crack grows, and water can get through to the floor below.
What bath repair costs
Prices start from £95. We don’t charge extra for travel to Llancaiach. The price comes down to:
- The size and number of damaged areas
- The material and finish
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- The type of damage
Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and doing several items at once reduces it.
How to get a fixed price
Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what to send:
- Details of any past repairs
- A wider photo showing the whole bath
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- Where you are, by postcode
To get a price, send two or three pictures using our quote form or ring us. We will say straight away if a repair is the right fix.
What we do, step by step
Visits start with a quick look at the job together, so there are no surprises. After that, protection goes down around the work area and the work begins. Allow a few hours, and we will keep you posted as we go.
- We start by cleaning the damage and taking out loose enamel and rust.
- The chip or crack is filled, then sanded level with the bath.
- We mix the colour on the day to match your bath’s exact shade.
- Finish coats go on, then the repair is polished to blend in.
- We leave it to cure; you can typically use the bath the following day.
Before we arrive
- Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
- Let us know about parking or access
- Let us know which floor the room is on
Ask for a price
