Bath repair in Mountain Air

About our bath repair in Mountain Air

Whatever has happened to the bath, we aim for the same result: a smooth, solid repair that blends in. Proper preparation, careful filling and shaping, then colour and gloss matching so it sits flush with the rest of the bath. Typical jobs include chips on the rim or sides and holes from dropped items, across whirlpool & spa baths, cast iron enamel and roll-top & freestanding.

Big or small, it’s backed by a one-year guarantee in Mountain Air and across Blaenau Gwent.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, then guarantee it for a year.

For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.

When a repair is not the answer

A few problems are outside what a surface repair can do:

  • A bath that moves underfoot, until its support is fixed
  • Rust that has eaten right through a steel bath
  • Leaking fittings, which need a plumber

Not sure? Send photos and we will give you a straight answer before booking.

What we’re called out for in Mountain Air

The usual cause is something heavy dropped into the bath, and building work is a common culprit. Cracks in acrylic have a different cause: poor support underneath, so the bath flexes when it’s full.

Keep an eye out for any of the following:

  • A failed DIY repair that’s discoloured or lifting
  • Holes from dropped items
  • Hairline or through cracks in acrylic
  • Chips under the taps

Before booking anyone

  • Whether they match the colour on site
  • If travel is included in the price
  • How long it needs to cure
  • How long the guarantee is and what it covers

How to compare quotes

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Cast iron

Cast iron baths are thick and very strong, finished with fired enamel. Chips can rust if left, but the body of the bath lasts a very long time, which makes it well worth repairing.

Pressed steel

Steel baths and trays have a thin metal body under the enamel. Once a chip exposes it, rust follows quickly, so the metal is treated and sealed before the repair.

Why repair rather than replace?

Think about the hidden costs of a new bath: taking out the old one, plumbing, tiling, a panel and redecorating. With a repair, it’s one visit and one price. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Every job is a little different, so each one is priced on its own. The size and type of damage, the material and access all make a difference, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

What you get with us

  • A year’s guarantee on all work
  • Colour mixed on the day to match
  • No need to remove anything
  • Accredited with CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor

The process

Arrival times are agreed in advance. On site, it takes a few hours for most jobs. The room is left tidy and you’ll know when it can be used.

  1. We start by cleaning the damage and taking out loose enamel and rust.
  2. The chip or crack is filled, then sanded level with the bath.
  3. We mix the colour on the day to match your bath’s exact shade.
  4. Finish coats go on, then the repair is polished to blend in.
  5. We leave it to cure; you can generally use the bath the following day.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
  • Ensure the area is dry
  • Make sure the room can be ventilated

What bath repair costs

Repairs from £95. Each job gets its own fixed price. These are the things that affect it:

  • How many items we do on one visit
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • What the surface is made of
  • How hard the colour is to match

There are no surprise extras on the day. What we quote from your pictures is what you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.

Getting a price from photos

Two or three clear pictures are generally enough. It helps if you send:

  • Something in shot to show the size
  • The material, if you know it
  • Details of any past repairs
  • One picture of the whole bath

Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: photograph the damage, then the entire bath, add your postcode and send them to us. What comes back is a fixed price, not a guess.

Is it OK to have pets in the house?

Please keep children and pets out of the room during the visit and until it has cured. Everywhere else in the home is fine.

How invisible is a bath repair?

On a bath in good condition, a colour matched repair is very hard to spot. On worn enamel, it can look shinier than the rest.
