Landlord and trade work in Maes-y-dre
Letting agents often send us photos straight from the inventory. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.
Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which matters when someone is living in the home.
Repairs by material
Cast iron
Cast iron baths are thick and very strong, finished with fired enamel. A chip down to the iron can rust, but the bath itself lasts for generations, so it’s always worth repairing.
Composite and resin
Stone resin and composite baths are heavy and solid. Chips and scratches can be filled and colour matched, in much the same way.
Aftercare tips
How the surface is treated afterwards matters. Here’s what we suggest:
- Get a dripping tap fixed promptly
- Keep metal cans and razors off the surface
- Put a towel in the bath if you are working above it
- Clean with warm water and a mild detergent
Use gentle, non-abrasive cleaners and avoid dropping heavy items on the repaired area. Deal with new chips early, before rust can start.
Avoid standing in a cracked acrylic bath until it’s fixed. Each time it flexes, the crack grows, and water can get through to the floor below.

What we do, step by step
We begin by going over the job with you, so there are no surprises. After that, protection goes down around the work area and the work begins. It normally takes two to three hours for most chips.
- First, we check the damage against your photos 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.
Preparing for the visit
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
- Make sure the room can be ventilated
- Clear the area around the damage
Getting a price
Getting a price is easy: take a close-up of the damage and a photo from further back, send them to us with your postcode, and you will get a fixed price back. Quotes are free and no obligation.
Advice
Maes-y-dre questions
Can you price it without visiting?
In nearly every case. If photos do not show enough, we will ask for another angle.
Is there a call-out fee?
No. Our quotes include travel, and we charge the same wherever you are.
What do you need from me?
Send photos through the quote form or call 0345 017 0787, and we’ll do the rest.
What about rust by the waste?
Yes, it’s one of the most common repairs we do. The rust is cut back to clean metal and sealed before we fill and finish it.
Can pets and children be at home?
Just keep them out of the work area. We will tell you when the room can be used again.
Can tenants book a repair?
Yes, but check with your landlord or agent first. Landlords are often glad to have it sorted before the end of a tenancy.
Do I need to be at home?
Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. You don’t need to watch us work.
What happens once I’ve sent photos?
We look at the pictures and reply with a fixed price and some dates. If we need another angle, we will ask.
When to call us in Maes-y-dre
The usual cause is something heavy dropped into the bath, and building work is a common culprit. Cracks in acrylic have a different cause: the bath is not properly supported, so it flexes under weight.
Signs it’s time to call us include:
- Damage beneath the taps
- Rusty patches near the plughole
- Chips along the edge of the bath
- Damage done while the bathroom was being fitted
What your quote should include
- What prep work is covered
- Who will actually do the work
- What happens if they find more damage
- How soon you can use it again
Repair or replace in Maes-y-dre?
Replacing a bath rarely stops at the bath: tiles along the rim generally crack when it comes out, a new panel is often needed, and the plumbing has to be disconnected and refitted. A repair skips all of it. Our bath repair starts from £95. Compared with replacing, a repair is typically a fraction of the price, because there is no removal, plumbing or making good. The quote lists exactly what you’re paying for.
