Bath repair at your home in Llanfair
Whatever has happened to the bath, we aim for the same result: a repair that is smooth, sound and hard to spot. Proper preparation, careful filling and shaping, then colour and gloss matching so it sits flush with the rest of the bath. We are often asked to fix holes from dropped items and a chipped rim or side, across cast iron enamel, pressed steel enamel and roll-top & freestanding.
A one-year guarantee comes as standard, so you’re not left on your own once we’ve gone.

When to call us in Llanfair
Heavy toiletries are the biggest single cause of chips, with dropped shower heads close behind. Taps and wastes cause problems too: water sits around them, and any chip there soon rusts.
The things customers usually mention when they call are:
- Damage beneath the taps
- Hairline or through cracks in acrylic
- A failed DIY repair that’s discoloured or lifting
- Chips caused by builders

What else we do in Llanfair
Landlords, agents and businesses in Llanfair
For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover, so there is no need to replace a damaged item at the last minute. Several plots can be done in one visit.
Letting agents frequently send us pictures straight from the inventory. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.
Aftercare tips
Most damage we see is avoidable. These habits help:
- Cover the bath during DIY or decorating
- Store metal items away from the bath
- Stick to mild cleaners and a soft cloth
- A dripping tap stains enamel, so fix it early
Give the repair the full curing time we recommend before running a bath. After that, gentle cleaning keeps it looking good.
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.
Repairs by material
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.
Acrylic
Acrylic baths are moulded sheet reinforced underneath. There’s no rust, but cracks, holes and scratches happen, and cracks need support from behind to stay fixed.
What a repair can’t fix
We’ll always be straight with you, so here’s what a repair will not do:
- Leaking fittings, which need a plumber
- Wear across the whole surface, which needs re-enamelling
- A bath that flexes because its feet or cradle have failed (that needs fixing first)
If in doubt, send pictures and we will say what we think before booking.

What we do, step by step
Nothing needs to be moved out of the room beforehand. Everything we use comes in the van with us, lay protective sheets and start once you’re happy with the plan. Most jobs take a few hours, and you can get on with other things while we’re 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.
- We build up the filler in layers, shaping it to the bath.
- We tint the finish by hand to match the bath.
- The repair is polished to the same gloss as the bath and left to cure.
Before we arrive
- Let us know about parking or access
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
- Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings

Should you replace it?
Replacing a bath rarely stops at the bath: tiles along the rim usually crack when it comes out, a new panel is frequently needed, and the plumbing has to be disconnected and refitted. Repairing the damage avoids all of that. Prices start from £95. Rather than charging by the hour, we price the whole job up front. Damage, material and access decide it.
Why Llanfair clients choose us
- Generally one visit, start to finish
- We leave the room as we found it
- A year’s guarantee on all work
- Colours mixed by hand to suit your surface

What affects the price in Llanfair
Prices start from £95. We charge the same across the UK, including Llanfair. What changes the price is:
- How many areas need work
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- Access to the area
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
Set against the cost of replacement, repairing typically costs far less, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.
Quotes from your pictures
The better the pictures, the more accurate the price. Here’s what helps:
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- Any details about the material
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
A quote takes minutes to ask for: photograph the damage, then the whole bath, add your postcode and send them to us. What comes back is a fixed quote, not a guess.
Llanfair questions
Can you repair something that’s been repaired before?
Yes, regularly. Removing the old work can add time, and that’s in the quote.
What do you need from me?
Photos of the damage, a picture of the whole bath and your postcode. After that, we just agree a date.
How do I get a price for bath repair in Llanfair?
Prices start from £95. We give a fixed quote from your photos. Send a close-up and a photo of the entire item and your postcode.
Can you redo an old repair?
Yes. We remove the old filler and start again. Mention it when you send photos.
Are you accredited?
We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.
I rent my home. Can I book you?
Of course. Ask your landlord first, and we can send them the quote if that helps.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
Normally, when the rest is in good condition. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. If replacing would be better, we’ll say so.
Can I get a quote without a visit?
Yes, almost always. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed quote.
