Work for landlords and builders
We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, fixing chips and scratches before handover so nothing needs replacing. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.
Letting agents often send us pictures straight from the inventory. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.
Common problems we fix in Llanhilleth
The usual cause is something heavy dropped into the bath, and a lot happen during bathroom refits. Acrylic baths crack for a different reason: poor support underneath, so the bath flexes when it’s full.
People usually call us after spotting something like this:
- Rust spots around the plughole
- An old repair that has yellowed or come loose
- Deep scratches in acrylic
- Chips under the taps

Llanhilleth: your questions answered
How soon can you come?
That depends on our diary for your area. We will offer you dates when we send your quote.
Can you repair a chip on a coloured bath?
Yes. We mix the colour on the day to match, including older coloured suites.
Will it make a mess?
Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we leave the room clean.
Will the price change on the day?
It’s rare, but if it happens we talk to you first. The price only changes if you agree.
What happens next?
We come back with a fixed quote, normally with dates to choose from. You are under no obligation.
Is a repair better than a new one?
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.
Is a bath repair durable?
Yes, if it’s prepared properly and the bath is sound. It carries our one-year guarantee.
Is there any odour?
There can be some smell while we work, so we ventilate the room. It clears as the materials cure.
What bath repair costs
Prices start from £95. There is no charge for travel to Llanhilleth. The price depends on:
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- What the surface is made of
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- How much damage there is
Compared with replacing, a repair is usually a fraction of the price, because there is no removal, plumbing or making good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.
Getting a price from photos
Two or three clear pictures are usually enough. Try to include:
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
Upload a picture of the damage and a wider shot of the entire item, and tell us you’re in Llanhilleth, and we’ll reply with a fixed price.
Can I fix it myself?
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is typically cheaper.
How the visit works
It’s a tidy, low-fuss visit. We agree the arrival time in advance, protect the area, and get on with the job, which generally takes a few hours, depending on the damage. If we find something your photos didn’t show, we will explain it before carrying on.
- First, we check the damage against your pictures and agree the plan.
- Loose enamel, rust and dirt are removed so the repair can bond.
- The damage is filled in layers and shaped to the curve of the bath.
- The colour is tinted by hand until it matches.
- The repair is polished to the same gloss as the bath and left to cure.
Preparing for the visit
- Point us to the nearest place to park
- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
- Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
Getting a price
No survey visit is needed: we price from photos. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through.
Advice
How to look after the repair
How the surface is treated afterwards matters:
- Don’t leave razors or cans standing in the bath
- Clean with warm water and a mild detergent
- Get a dripping tap fixed promptly
- Protect the bath with a towel when doing jobs nearby
A repaired bath needs no special treatment. Skip bleach and gritty creams.
If water is getting through a crack, stop using the bath. Water under the bath can damage the floor and the ceiling below.
Why repair rather than replace?
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. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Send photos and you will get a fixed figure.
