Bath Repair for Llandovery homes
Fixed-price bath repair in Llandovery and the surrounding area, typically in one visit and guaranteed for a year.
- Repairs from £95
- Rust by the waste and overflow
- A cracked acrylic bath
What bath repair costs
Repairs from £95. A fixed quote means you know the cost before you book. We take into account:
- How easy the damage is to reach
- Whether we combine several jobs
- The size and number of damaged areas
- The type of damage
Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is generally a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. The quote lists exactly what you are paying for.
How to get a fixed price
Phone pictures are fine, there is no need for anything special. Just make sure we can see:
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- A photo taken from further back
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us pictures through the quote form. With one close-up and one wider picture, we can price the job the same day in most cases.
Bath repair in Llandovery without replacing anything
It pays to repair bath damage while it’s small. Exposed metal on enamelled baths soon rusts, while cracks in acrylic grow each time the bath moves. A repair stops both. Common call-outs are for holes from dropped items and chips along the edge of the bath, across cast iron enamel, acrylic and whirlpool & spa baths.
You’re covered after we leave: our one-year guarantee applies to every job, and we explain what it covers before you book.

What a repair can’t fix
A repair is not always the answer, and we would rather say so up front. We can’t fix:
- Metal that has corroded all the way through
- A bath worn all over, where resurfacing makes more sense
- A bath that moves underfoot, until its support is fixed
Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly before booking.

Do you need bath repair in Llandovery?
Dropped items cause the majority of chips, and a lot happen during bathroom refits. Acrylic baths crack for a different reason: poor support underneath, so the bath flexes when it’s full.
Clients generally contact us about:
- Rust spots around the plughole
- Scuffs and scratches in the surface
- Damage done while the bathroom was being fitted
- Holes from dropped items
What to look for in a quote

- How the colour is matched

Work for landlords and builders
Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.
We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out photos. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.

Different materials, different repairs
Composite and resin
Composite baths are dense and solid, and often freestanding. Chips and scratches are filled and matched, just like other baths.
Acrylic
An acrylic bath is a moulded sheet strengthened from below. They do not rust, but they can crack, scratch or be holed, and cracks need support from behind to stay fixed.
Aftercare tips
Once the work has cured, treat it gently:
- Do not scrub with anything abrasive
- A dripping tap stains enamel, so fix it early
- Get any new chip repaired before it rusts
- Store metal items away from the bath
In the first few days, avoid putting weight or bottles on the repair. After that, normal gentle cleaning is fine, avoiding abrasives.
Until we visit, a strip of waterproof tape over the damage helps, so water cannot get in. Take it off before we arrive.

What else we do in Llandovery
Questions from Llandovery
Can you fix rust around the plughole?
Yes, it’s one of the most common repairs we do. The rust is cut back to clean metal and sealed before we fill and finish it.
Is it messy?
Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we take our waste away with us.
Is a cracked acrylic bath repairable?
In most cases. We reinforce the crack from behind, then fill and refinish the front, so access behind the panel is important.
What information do you need?
Photos of the damage, a picture of the whole bath and your postcode. After that, we just agree a date.
Can you repair a failed DIY repair?
Regularly. The old material comes out, any rust is treated, then we repair it properly.
Do the materials smell?
There can be some smell while we work, which is why we ventilate. It clears as the materials cure.
Can you repair a chip on a coloured bath?
Yes, we match coloured baths too. The colour is tinted by hand on the day.
Will the repair last?
A properly prepared repair should last a long time, and ours come with a one-year guarantee. Gentle cleaning helps.
How the visit works
We work cleanly and quietly, so you can stay at home while we’re there. Protection goes down first, then the job itself takes a few hours. At the end we talk you through how soon it can be used and how to care for it.
- We protect the bath and the floor around it.
- We clean, key and degrease the damage.
- We fill it, let it set, then sand it flush.
- Colour and gloss are matched to the surrounding surface.
- We clear up and give you the curing time, normally until the next day.
Getting ready for the visit
- Have a window or extractor fan available
- Ensure the area is dry
- Let us know about parking or access
How to get a price
Getting a price is easy: take a close-up of the damage and a photo from further back, send them to us with your postcode, and you’ll get a fixed price back. There’s no charge for the quote and you’re under no obligation.

Repairing versus replacing in Llandovery
When the bath is otherwise sound, repairing beats replacing. It’s quicker, cheaper and far less disruptive, and you keep the bath you chose. Where the entire surface is tired, we may suggest re-enamelling instead. Prices start from £95. A repair normally costs much less than people expect, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Send photos and we will give you the exact figure.
