Materials and what they mean for the repair
Cast iron
Cast iron is heavy and rigid, finished with fired enamel. Chips can rust if left, but the body of the bath lasts a very long time, so it’s always worth repairing.
Pressed steel
Steel baths are lighter than cast iron, but have a similar enamel surface. Exposed steel rusts fast, particularly by the plughole, so repair chips early.
Bath repair in Llangolman without replacing anything
We see every kind of bath damage: chips from dropped bottles, rust round the plughole, cracks in acrylic and holes from falling tools. All of it is repaired where the bath stands with a one-year guarantee. Our technicians work on pressed steel enamel, acrylic and roll-top & freestanding, and common reasons people contact us are damage done while the bathroom was being fitted and rust by the waste and overflow.
Big or small, you get the same one-year guarantee.

How the visit works
Expect a friendly, tidy visit. We confirm the time with you beforehand, cover and mask the work area, and get on with the job, which normally takes a few hours. If anything looks different from your photos, we’ll talk to you before going ahead.
- We start by cleaning the damage and taking out loose enamel and rust.
- We fill the damage and sand it flush with the surrounding surface.
- We mix the colour on the day to match your bath’s exact shade.
- We apply the finish coats and polish the repair so it blends in.
- We leave it to cure; you can generally use the bath the following day.
Before we arrive
- Make sure the area is dry
- Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
Getting a price
There’s no need for us to visit first. Nearly every job can be priced from photos: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price.

Can I fix it myself?
A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it will not stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is usually the cheaper route.

Repair or replace in Llangolman?
Cast iron baths in particular are worth repairing: they’re very heavy to remove, especially upstairs, and a like-for-like replacement can be expensive. Repairing it leaves it where it is. Prices start from £95. Set against the cost of replacement, repairing normally costs far less, because there is no removal, plumbing or making good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

How to look after the repair
After the repair has cured, a few habits help it last:
- Protect the bath with a towel when doing jobs nearby
- Do not leave a fresh chip for long
- If an acrylic bath flexes, have its feet adjusted
- Avoid scourers, wire wool and gritty cream cleaners
Give the repair the full curing time we recommend before running a bath. After that, gentle cleaning keeps it looking good.
Avoid standing in a cracked acrylic bath until it’s fixed. Every use opens the crack a little more, and it can start to leak underneath.
Do you need bath repair in Llangolman?
Heavy toiletries are the biggest single cause of chips, closely followed by shower heads. Fittings cause damage too: water collects there, so chips nearby rust quickly.
Typical reasons for a call-out include:
- Scuffs and scratches in the surface
- Chips along the edge of the bath
- A hole punched through by something heavy
- Chips under the taps

Your questions about bath repair in Llangolman
Can a cracked acrylic bath be fixed?
Often, yes, if we can reach the underside to reinforce it. Take off the bath panel and check, or send us a picture.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Of course, and it typically saves money. Just add the extra items to your photos and you will get one combined price.
It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?
In most cases. We remove the old repair before doing a new one.
Is it safe with children and pets around?
We ask you to keep children and pets out of the room while we work and until it has cured. The rest of the house is unaffected.
When can you do it?
That depends on our diary for your area. We will offer you dates when we send your quote.
Will there be a smell?
There can be some smell while we work. It fades as everything cures.
Is there a call-out fee?
We don’t add a call-out fee. Your fixed price includes everything.
I rent my home. Can I book you?
Yes, but check with your landlord or agent first. Landlords are frequently glad to have it sorted.
