There’s no plumbing to disconnect, your tiles stay as they are, and the repaired area is colour matched so it blends in. Common call-outs are for a hole punched through by something heavy and snagging damage from a refit, across acrylic, cast iron enamel and roll-top & freestanding.

For landlords and businesses
We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Just send pictures, the address and how to get access.
For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover, so there’s no need to replace a damaged item at the last minute. Several plots can be done in one visit to keep costs down.
What we do, step by step
Arrival times are agreed in advance, so you know when to expect us. On site, it takes a few hours, depending on the damage in most cases. The room is left tidy.
- We protect the bath and the floor around it.
- The damaged area is cleaned, keyed and degreased.
- Filler goes in and is sanded flush once it has set.
- We match both the colour and the shine.
- We clear up and give you the curing time, normally until the next day.
How to prepare
- Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
- Let us know which floor the room is on
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
How to get a price
Upload a picture of the damage and one of the whole item, and tell us you’re in Llanddewi Ystradenni, and we will come back with a fixed quote.

Honest limits
To be straight with you, there are a few things a repair will not fix:
- Water coming from the waste or taps rather than the bath
- Cracks in parts of an acrylic bath we can’t get to from below
- Flexing caused by a failed cradle or loose feet
Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly.
Materials we repair
- Acrylic
- Roll-top & freestanding
- Whirlpool & spa baths
- Cast iron enamel
- Pressed steel enamel
DIY repairs versus a professional job
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it won’t stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.

Keeping it looking good
To keep it looking its best:
- A dripping tap stains enamel, so fix it early
- Give the bath a quick rinse after use
- Check that an acrylic bath doesn’t move when you stand in it
- Stick to mild cleaners and a soft cloth
There is nothing special to do after a repair. Skip bleach and gritty creams and give it a rinse after each bath.
Rust under enamel spreads surprisingly quickly. Left for months, a small chip can grow into a large rust patch, so early repair keeps the cost down.
When to call us in Llanddewi Ystradenni
Rust generally starts where water sits, by the plughole, beneath dripping taps or in an unrepaired chip. Water on bare metal causes rust that creeps under the surrounding enamel.
Typical reasons for a call-out include:
- Rusty patches near the plughole
- A kit repair that didn’t last
- Chips on the rim or sides
- Scratches you can feel with a fingernail

Materials and what they mean for the repair
Composite and resin
Composite baths are dense and solid. Chips and scratches are filled and matched, just like other baths.
Pressed steel
Steel baths are lighter than cast iron, but have a similar enamel surface. Exposed steel rusts fast, particularly by the plughole, so early repairs matter.
