Bath repair in Llanfair-ar-y-bryn, done in place
It pays to repair bath damage while it’s small. On steel and cast iron, exposed metal starts to rust, while cracks in acrylic grow each time the bath moves. A repair stops both. Typical jobs include chips along the edge of the bath and rusty patches near the plughole, in whirlpool & spa baths, pressed steel enamel and cast iron enamel.
We stand behind the work with a one-year guarantee, so you are not left on your own once we have gone.

Should you replace it?
When the bath is otherwise sound, repairing beats replacing. It costs less, takes less time and causes far less upheaval, and the bathroom stays as it is. If the entire surface is worn, re-enamelling may make more sense, and we’ll tell you. Prices start from £95. What it costs depends on how much damage there is and what kind, the material and how many items we do on one visit. You get a fixed quote from your pictures, so you know the cost before booking.

Work for landlords and builders
We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out photos. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.
Rental properties take more wear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.
Keeping it looking good
Aftercare is simple:
- Make sure an acrylic bath is firm underfoot
- Rinse it down after each bath
- Fix dripping taps early to stop staining and limescale
- Store metal items away from the bath
Treat the repaired area like the rest of the bath: warm water, washing-up liquid and a soft cloth. Keep scouring pads and gritty cleaners away from it.
A small chip is a quick job. Left alone, they stain and can rust, so early repair saves time and money.

- Leaks from the waste or overflow fittings (a plumber’s job)
- A bath that flexes because its feet or cradle have failed (that needs fixing first)
- A steel bath rusted through
Not sure? Send pictures and we will give you a straight answer.

What affects the price in Llanfair-ar-y-bryn
Prices start from £95. We give every job a fixed quote from photos. This is what makes a difference:
- The type of damage
- The material and finish
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- How many items we do on one visit
No two jobs are quite the same, so each one is priced on its own. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all make a difference, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.
Send pictures for a quote
We price nearly every job from photos. This is what we need:
- A picture taken from further back
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- What it’s made of, if you know
Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: photograph the damage, then the whole bath, add your postcode and send them over. You will get a fixed price, not an estimate.
Should I try a DIY kit first?
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is generally cheaper.
