Your questions about bath repair in Llangynin
Is the work guaranteed?
Yes, for a year. If there is a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.
Is repairing better than replacing?
Typically, when the rest is in good condition. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. If replacing would be better, we will say so.
Will you leave a mess?
Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and we clean up when we’ve finished.
How much does bath repair cost in Llangynin?
Repairs from £95. Every job gets a fixed price based on photos of the damage. Send a close-up and a photo of the whole item and your postcode.
Is there any odour?
There can be some smell while we work, so we ventilate the room. It clears as the materials cure.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Yes, and it’s frequently cheaper. Send pictures of everything together and you will get one combined price.
Will the repair last?
It should, as long as the bath is firm and the area was prepared well. It’s covered by our one-year guarantee.
Is a holed acrylic bath repairable?
Usually, yes, if we can reach behind it. We back the hole, fill it and refinish the surface.
Bath repair at your home in Llangynin

We stand behind the work with a one-year guarantee.

Aftercare tips
Once the work has cured, treat it gently:
- Use a soft cloth and washing-up liquid for everyday cleaning
- Keep abrasive pads and gritty cleaners away from the bath
- Get a dripping tap fixed promptly
- Cover the bath during DIY or decorating
Treat the repaired area like the rest of the bath: warm water, washing-up liquid and a soft cloth. Avoid scourers and gritty cream cleaners.
Rust under enamel spreads surprisingly quickly. Left for months, a small chip can grow into a large rust patch, so it pays to deal with it early.
How the visit works
We agree an arrival time beforehand. On site, it takes a few hours in most cases. The room is left tidy and ready to use once it has cured.
- First, we check the damage against your pictures and agree the plan.
- Loose enamel, rust and dirt are removed so the repair can bond.
- We build up the filler in layers, shaping it to the bath.
- The colour is tinted by hand until it matches.
- Finally, it’s polished to match the shine and left to cure.
Getting ready for the visit
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
- Make sure the room can be ventilated

- Chips caused by builders
- Chips on the rim or sides
- Scuffs and scratches in the surface

DIY repairs versus a professional job
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair will not last.
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it does not stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.
Repairs by material
Composite and resin
Composite baths are dense and solid, and often freestanding. Chips and scratches are filled and matched, in much the same way.
Cast iron
A cast iron bath is heavy enough that most people never want to move it. Only the enamel surface wears or chips, and that is what we repair.
