Repairing baths is what we do most. Chips on the rim, rust around the waste and cracks in acrylic are all fixed without removing the bath, normally in one visit. Whether it’s rust spots around the plughole and a kit repair that didn’t last, we can help.
Peace of mind is built in: each job carries a one-year guarantee, and we explain what it covers before booking.

Looking after it afterwards
Simple care helps the repair last. We recommend:
- Check that an acrylic bath does not move when you stand in it
- Store metal items away from the bath
- Avoid scourers, wire wool and gritty cream cleaners
- Rinse it down after each bath
Keep metal objects like razors and cans off the surface, because they can mark the enamel. And fix dripping taps promptly.
Tape over a fresh chip or crack until it’s repaired, to keep water out. Take it off before we arrive.
What your bath is made of matters
Acrylic
Acrylic is light and warm to the touch, but it needs firm support underneath. Repairs to cracks are reinforced from the back.
Pressed steel
Pressed steel is thinner and lighter, with an enamel finish like cast iron. Exposed steel rusts fast, particularly by the plughole, so early repairs matter.
Signs you need bath repair in Llanllwchhaearn
Acrylic baths that crack nearly always have a support problem. Loose legs, no proper cradle or a floor that gives let the bath move.
If you can see any of these, send us a picture:
- An old repair that has yellowed or come loose
- Chips under the taps
- Cracks in an acrylic bath
- Rust by the waste and overflow

Can I fix it myself?
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, 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.
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 then the old filler has to be removed first.
What we do, step by step
Your technician turns up at the time we agreed with you, introduces themselves and checks the damage against your photos first. The floor and nearby surfaces are covered before any work starts. The work itself takes a few hours, depending on the damage, and we leave the room as we found it.
- We protect the bath and the floor around it.
- The damaged area is cleaned, keyed and degreased.
- We fill it, let it set, then sand it flush.
- We match both the colour and the shine.
- We tidy up and tell you when the bath can be used, generally the next day.
How to prepare
- Let us know about parking or access
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
- Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
How to get a price
Pricing is simple: take a close-up of the damage and a photo from further back, send them over with your postcode, and you will get a fixed price back. Quotes are free and you’re under no obligation.
Advice
Prices and what affects them
Repairs from £95. A fixed quote means you know the cost before you book. We look at:
- The material
- The size and number of damaged areas
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- Whether we combine several jobs
No two jobs are quite the same, so each one is priced on its own. The size and type of damage, the material and access all make a difference, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.
Quotes from your pictures
Photographing the damage takes a minute, and it saves a visit. Try to send:
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- One picture of the entire bath
- Details of any past repairs
- The material, if you know it
No survey visit is needed: we price from pictures. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through, and we’ll come back with a fixed figure.
Common questions in Llanllwchhaearn
Can a cracked acrylic bath be fixed?
In most cases. We reinforce the crack from behind, then fill and refinish the front, so we need access under the bath.
Can you repair something that is been repaired before?
Yes, regularly. It can add a little time, which we include in the quote.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
Generally, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. We’ll be honest if it’s not worth it.
How do I get a price for bath repair in Llanllwchhaearn?
Repairs from £95. Because every job differs, we price from pictures. You know the full cost before anything is booked.
Is my repair covered?
Yes: twelve months. If there’s a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.
Do the materials smell?
There may be a mild smell during the work that clears as it cures.
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.
Do you do work for letting agents?
Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as homeowners across Ceredigion.
Landlord and trade work in Llanllwchhaearn
Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets can’t afford rooms out of action for long, so we keep visits short and tidy. We’ll fit around changeovers where we can.
We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Llanllwchhaearn as well as homeowners. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it usually costs far less than a refit.

What we can’t put right
A repair isn’t right for every job, for example:
- Cracks in parts of an acrylic bath we can’t get to from below
- Wear across the whole surface, which needs re-enamelling

If in doubt, send photos and we will say what we think.
