Your questions about bath repair in Llangeinor

Do you work for landlords and businesses?

Yes. We carry out repairs for householders, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses across Bridgend.

Is there a call-out fee?

Travel is included in the price, with the same prices everywhere we work.

Will the repair show?

On a glossy bath, you will struggle to find it. On older, dull enamel the repair can look glossier than the area around it.

Will it make a mess?

Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we leave the room clean.

Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?

Typically, if the item is otherwise sound. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. If replacing would be better, we’ll say so.

Are you accredited?

We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.

Can you match an avocado or pink bath?

Yes. We mix the colour on the day to match, including older coloured suites.

What happens once I’ve sent pictures?

We check the damage, the material and your postcode, then reply with a quote and the next dates we have.

Bath repair at your home in Llangeinor

A damaged bath does not have to mean a new bathroom. We fill the damage, shape it to the curve of the bath and refinish it, mixing the colour on the day so the repair is hard to spot. Whether it’s a kit repair that didn’t last and impact holes in acrylic, we can help, on pressed steel enamel, roll-top & freestanding and cast iron enamel alike.

Every repair comes with a one-year guarantee, wherever you are in Bridgend.

Repair or replace: which is better?

Many people think a damaged bath means a new one. In most cases it does not: a repair keeps the bath in service for years, without the cost and upheaval of replacing it. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is normally a fraction of the price, because there is no removal, plumbing or making good. The quote lists exactly what you’re paying for.

Signs you need bath repair in Llangeinor

Rust usually starts where water sits, by the plughole, beneath dripping taps or in an unrepaired chip. Once water reaches the steel or iron, rust spreads under the enamel.

People typically call us when they notice something like this:

  • Scuffs and scratches in the surface
  • A failed DIY repair that is discoloured or lifting
  • A chip where the taps sit
  • Rusty patches near the plughole

What your bath is made of matters

Acrylic

Acrylic baths are moulded sheet reinforced underneath. There’s no rust, but cracks, holes and scratches happen, and a crack only stays repaired if it’s supported underneath.

Cast iron

Cast iron baths are so heavy that repairing in place makes obvious sense. The enamel is the part that wears or chips, and that is what we repair.

Honest limits

A repair isn’t right for every job, for example:

  • Cracks in parts of an acrylic bath we can’t get to from below
  • Leaks from the waste or overflow fittings (a plumber’s job)
  • Flexing caused by a failed cradle or loose feet

Not sure? Send photos and we will give you a straight answer before booking.

Surfaces we repair

  • Pressed steel enamel
  • Cast iron enamel
  • Whirlpool & spa baths
  • Acrylic
  • Roll-top & freestanding

Aftercare tips

To keep it looking its best:

  • Put a towel in the bath if you are working above it
  • Don’t scrub with anything abrasive
  • Get any new chip repaired before it rusts
  • Give the bath a quick rinse after use

Give the repair the full curing time we recommend before running a bath. From then on, mild cleaning is all it needs.

Stop using the bath if a crack lets water through until it’s repaired. Water under the bath can damage the floor and the ceiling below.

Work for landlords and builders

We are used to working with agents and managing companies. Just send photos, the address and how to get access and we will arrange it.

Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, fixing chips and scratches before handover. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.

The process

It’s a tidy, low-fuss visit. We confirm the time with you beforehand, protect the area, and get on with the job, which normally takes two to three hours for most chips. If anything looks different from your pictures, we will talk to you before going ahead.

  1. We protect the bath and the floor around it.
  2. The damaged area is cleaned, keyed and degreased.
  3. We fill it, let it set, then sand it flush.
  4. Colour and gloss are matched to the surrounding surface.
  5. We clear up and give you the curing time, normally until the next day.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Open a window if you can
  • Let us know which floor the room is on
  • Let the surface dry out before the visit

Getting a price

Send us a picture of the damage and one of the entire item, with your CF32 postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote.
