About our bath repair in Llandybie
Whatever has happened to the bath, we aim for the same result: a repair that’s smooth, sound and hard to spot. We prepare the area properly, fill and shape it, then match the colour and gloss so it sits flush with the rest of the bath. We work on cast iron enamel, pressed steel enamel and roll-top & freestanding, and the jobs we see most are cracks in an acrylic bath and a kit repair that didn’t last.
Whatever the size of the job, it’s backed by a one-year guarantee in Llandybie and across Carmarthenshire.

Work for landlords and builders
We’re used to working with agents and managing companies. Just send photos, the address and how to get access and we’ll arrange it.
Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets can’t afford rooms out of action for long, so we keep visits short and tidy. We can work around your bookings.
What we are called out for in Llandybie
Nearly all the chips we see start with something being dropped: a shampoo bottle, a shower head, a tile or a tool during a refit. On steel and cast iron baths, a chip that reaches the metal lets water in, and rust follows.
Keep an eye out for these signs:
- Chips caused by builders
- Chips on the rim or sides
- Chips under the taps
- Scuffs and scratches in the surface

What we can’t put right
Before booking, it’s worth knowing the limits too:

- Water coming from the waste or taps rather than the bath
- Metal that has corroded all the way through
Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly.

Llandybie questions
Are there extra charges for Llandybie?
No. Our quotes include travel, with the same prices everywhere we work.
Will I be able to see the repair?
On a bath in good condition, a colour-matched repair is very hard to spot. On older, dull enamel the repair can look glossier than the area around it.
Is a repair better than a new one?
Generally, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. If it is not worth repairing, we will tell you.
Is my repair covered?
Every repair comes with a one-year guarantee. We’ll explain what it covers when we quote.
Can rust on a bath be repaired?
Yes, it’s one of the most common repairs we do. We take it back to sound metal, seal it, fill it and match the colour.
Will there be a smell?
There may be a mild smell during the work.
Can a cracked acrylic bath be fixed?
Most of the time. We reinforce the crack from behind, then fill and refinish the front, so we need access under the bath.
Will you leave a mess?
Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and we clean up when we’ve finished.

Can I fix it myself?
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.

How the visit works
Nothing needs to be moved out of the room beforehand. Everything we use comes in the van with us, lay protective sheets and get going once we have agreed what we are doing. It typically takes a few hours, and you can get on with other things while we are there.
- We start by looking at the damage and confirming the plan with you.
- Any rust and loose material comes out, and the area is degreased.
- The damage is filled in layers and shaped to the curve of the bath.
- The colour is tinted by hand until it matches.
- The repair is polished to the same gloss as the bath and left to cure.
Getting ready for the visit
- Make sure the area is dry
- Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
- Let us know if it has been repaired before
Getting a price
You don’t need a survey visit. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we will come back to you with a fixed figure.
Advice
Repair or replace: which is better?
When the bath is otherwise sound, repairing beats replacing. It costs less, takes less time and causes far less upheaval, and you keep the bath you chose. If the whole surface is worn, re-enamelling may make more sense, and we’ll tell you. Our bath repair starts from £95. 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. Send pictures and you will get a fixed figure.
Why us?
- Colours mixed by hand to suit your surface
- Typically one visit, start to finish
- Free fixed quotes from pictures

Looking after it afterwards
How the surface is treated afterwards matters. Here’s what we suggest:
- Clean with warm water and a mild detergent
- Rinse the bath after use, especially in hard water areas
- Avoid scourers, wire wool and gritty cream cleaners
- Keep metal cans and razors off the surface
Use gentle, non-abrasive cleaners and try not to drop heavy bottles on the repair. Get any new chip seen to quickly, before rust sets in.
If water is getting through a crack, stop using the bath. Leaks under a bath can damage floors and ceilings.
What affects the price in Llandybie
Prices start from £95. A fixed quote means you know the cost before booking. We take into account:
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- The colour and finish to match
- Access to the area
- How many items we do on one visit
Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Photos let us give you the exact figure.
How to get a fixed quote

- Natural light rather than flash
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- Any details about the material
