Bath Repair in Mumbles
Chip and crack repairs to enamel, acrylic and cast iron baths at your home in Mumbles, with a one-year guarantee on every repair.
- Repairs from £95
- A chipped rim or side
- Hairline or through cracks in acrylic
For landlords and businesses
Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Mumbles use us as well as householders. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it costs much less than replacing.
We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams in Swansea and across the UK. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which matters when someone is living in the home.
How we handle bath repair in Mumbles
Whether your bath is steel, cast iron or acrylic, we can repair it. The method changes with the material: rust is treated on metal baths, while cracks in acrylic are reinforced from underneath. If you’re dealing with impact holes in acrylic and a chipped rim or side, we can normally put it right, on acrylic, pressed steel enamel and whirlpool & spa baths alike.
We guarantee the work for a year. If there is a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it.

How to look after the repair
Once the work has cured, treat it gently:
- Use a soft cloth and washing-up liquid for everyday cleaning
- Fix dripping taps early to stop staining and limescale
- Cover the bath during DIY or decorating
- Give the bath a quick rinse after use
Don’t leave razors, cans or hair grips in the bath, as they can leave rust marks. A dripping tap should be fixed early, too.
If an acrylic bath has a crack, stop showering in it until it’s repaired. Every use opens the crack a little more, and it can start to leak underneath.
How it works
From the moment we arrive, we keep the work contained to the one room. We mask off everything nearby, the work takes a few hours, depending on the damage, and we finish with a tidy-up and a look at the finished work together.
- Dust sheets and masking go down around the bath.
- 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 clear up and give you the curing time, normally until the day after.
Before we arrive
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
- Let the surface dry out before the visit
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible

Related advice
What we are called out for in Mumbles
Glass and heavy bottles cause more chips than anything else, closely followed by shower heads. Taps and wastes cause problems too: water collects there, so chips nearby rust quickly.
It’s worth getting a quote if you see:
- Deep scratches in acrylic
- Cracks in an acrylic bath
- Chips caused by builders
- A chip where the taps sit
What to look for in a quote
- What aftercare is recommended
- Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT
- Whether the price covers travel
- What happens if the damage is worse than the photos show
What affects the price in Mumbles
Prices start from £95. Every quote is fixed and free. What we take into account:
- What kind of damage it is
- Unusual colours or finishes
- What the surface is made of
- Whether we combine several jobs
Every job is a little different, so we price each one individually. The size and type of damage, the material and access all play a part, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.
Send photos for a quote
Most quotes are done from pictures alone. To help us price it:
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- Natural light rather than flash
- Details of any past repairs
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
To get a price, send a couple of photos through our quote form or call us. We’ll say immediately if a repair is the right fix.

FAQs for Mumbles
Do you do work for letting agents?
Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as homeowners in Mumbles.
Is it safe with children and pets around?
Please keep children and pets out of the room during the visit. Everywhere else in the home is fine.
Can you repair a failed DIY repair?
Yes. We remove the old filler and start again. Tell us about it when you send photos.
Do you work in Mumbles?
Yes. We work across the UK and travel to Mumbles. Send us photos for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
Can you fix rust around the plughole?
Yes. We remove the rust and loose enamel, fill the area, then colour-match the finish.
Can you price it without visiting?
In nearly every case. If pictures do not show enough, we will ask for another angle.
Is the work guaranteed?
All our work carries our one-year guarantee. We will explain what it covers when we quote.
What happens after I send photos?
You will get a fixed quote back, usually with dates to choose from. There’s no obligation to book.
DIY kit or professional repair?
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair will not last.
What your bath is made of matters
Pressed steel
Under the enamel of a steel bath is thin metal. Once a chip exposes it, rust follows quickly, so the metal is treated and sealed before the repair.
Composite and resin
Stone resin and composite baths are heavy and solid, and frequently freestanding. Chips and scratches can be filled and colour matched, in much the same way.
When a repair is not the answer
To be straight with you, there are a few things a repair won’t fix:
- A bath worn all over, where resurfacing makes more sense
- A bath that flexes because its feet or cradle have failed (that needs fixing first)
- Leaking fittings, which need a plumber
Not sure? Send photos and we will give you a straight answer before you book.
