How we handle bath repair in Llanmorlais
A typical bath repair is a few hours’ work, and you can typically bathe again the next day. You won’t need a plumber or tiler, because nothing is disconnected. We are often asked to fix rust by the waste and overflow and chips along the edge of the bath, on pressed steel enamel, cast iron enamel and roll-top & freestanding.
You’re covered after we leave: each job carries a one-year guarantee, and we will explain exactly what it covers when we quote.

When to call us in Llanmorlais
Acrylic baths that crack nearly always have a support problem. Loose legs, no proper cradle or a floor that gives let the base flex until it cracks.
If you can see any of these, send us a picture:
- Chips along the edge of the bath
- A hole punched through by something heavy
- Deep scratches in acrylic
- Chips under the taps

Repair or replace: which is better?
Cast iron baths in particular are worth repairing: they’re very heavy to remove, especially upstairs, and replacing like for like is not cheap. A repair keeps it in place. Prices start from £95. 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.

How we price bath repair
Repairs from £95. We don’t charge extra for travel to Llanmorlais. The price comes down to:
- Whether we combine several jobs
- How hard the colour is to match
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- The material and finish
What it costs depends on how much damage there is and what kind, the material and how many jobs we combine into one visit. You get a fixed quote from your photos, so there are no surprises on the day.
Getting a price from pictures
It only takes a minute to photograph the damage, and it saves a visit. Try to send:
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- Where you are, by postcode
- A picture taken from further back
We price from pictures so you do not have to wait in for a survey. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through, and we’ll come back with a fixed figure.
Keeping it looking good
Most damage we see is avoidable. These habits help:
- Avoid scourers, wire wool and gritty cream cleaners
- Protect the bath with a towel when doing jobs nearby
- Do not leave razors or cans standing in the bath
- Clean with warm water and a mild detergent
Treat the repaired area like the rest of the bath: warm water, washing-up liquid and a soft cloth. Keep scouring pads and gritty cleaners away from it.
Do not leave a chip on a steel or cast iron bath. Once water reaches the metal, rust begins, turning a quick repair into a bigger one.
Llanmorlais questions
What information do you need?
A close-up, a wider photo and your postcode. After that, we just agree a date.

Yes. Doing several items on one visit usually costs less than separate visits. Include pictures of each item.
Do you do work for letting agents?

Can I get a quote without a visit?
Normally, yes. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed quote.
Can pets and children be at home?
Yes, as long as they stay out of the room we’re working in. We will let you know when it’s safe to use again.
Will you leave a mess?
Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and tidy up before we leave.
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
We can work for tenants, landlords or agents. Get your landlord’s agreement first.

DIY kit or professional repair?
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair won’t last.
For a hairline mark somewhere you will never see, a kit may be enough. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, a professional repair is worth it.
