Most bath damage, from chips and cracks to rust spots and holes, is repaired in place. Nothing is unplumbed, the tiles aren’t touched, and the finish is matched to the rest of the bath. Whether it’s holes from dropped items and chips caused by builders, we can help, on roll-top & freestanding, whirlpool & spa baths and pressed steel enamel alike.

Every job is backed for twelve months in Mynyddcynffig and everywhere else. We return to put right any problem with the work.

Landlord and trade work in Mynyddcynffig

Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs in Bridgend and across the UK. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which matters when someone is living in the home.

Hospitality businesses can’t afford rooms out of action for long, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We can work around your bookings.

The process

Here’s how a visit generally runs: we arrive on time, sheet and mask the area around the job, carry out the work and clear up. Allow a morning or an afternoon from start to finish. Before we go, we will explain how long to leave it and how to care for it.

  1. We protect the bath and the floor around it.
  2. The damaged area is cleaned, keyed and degreased.
  3. We fill it, let it set, then sand it flush.
  4. We match both the colour and the shine.
  5. We clear up and give you the curing time, normally until the next day.

How to prepare

  • Make sure the area is dry
  • Point us to the nearest place to park
  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children

Ask for a price

You don’t need a survey visit. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we will come back to you with a fixed figure.

Related advice

What we cannot put right

To be straight with you, there are a few things a repair will not fix:

  • Acrylic cracks with no access behind them
  • A whole bath that’s dull or worn, where a full re-enamel is the better fix
  • Leaks from the waste or overflow fittings (a plumber’s job)

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

Repairing versus replacing in Mynyddcynffig

A new bath brings a chain of other jobs: the tiles sitting on the rim tend to break, a new panel is frequently needed, and a plumber has to disconnect and reconnect everything. A repair skips all of it. Prices start from £95. We don’t add extras on the day. The price we quote from your photos is the price you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.

Why us?

  • A year’s guarantee on all work
  • Rooms protected and left tidy
  • CHAS and Constructionline accredited
  • One visit for most repairs

Prices and what affects them

Prices start from £95. You won’t pay by the hour. The price is based on:

  • What kind of damage it is
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • How many areas need work

Every job is a little different, so each one is priced on its own. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all play a part, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

Getting a price from photos

Phone pictures are fine. Make sure they show:

  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • A picture taken from further back
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • Any details about the material

For most jobs, photos are all we need to give you a price. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we will send back a fixed quote and some dates.

When to call us in Mynyddcynffig

Dropped items cause the majority of chips, 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.

Get in touch if you’ve noticed:

  • Damage beneath the taps
  • A kit repair that didn’t last
  • Snagging damage from a refit
  • Rust spots around the plughole

What your quote should include

  • Whether the colour is mixed to match
  • How long the guarantee is and what it covers
  • What prep work is covered
  • Who will actually do the work

How to compare quotes

DIY repairs versus a professional job

It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is typically cheaper.

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it won’t stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.

Mynyddcynffig: your questions answered

I rent my home. Can I book you?

Of course. Check with your landlord; we can send the quote to them too.

It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?

In most cases. The old repair comes out first, so mention it when you send pictures.

Will it make a mess?

We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and tidy up before we leave.

How soon can you come?

Your quote comes with available dates. If it’s urgent, say so and we’ll do what we can.

How long before I can use the bath?

Normally by the following day, though it depends on what we’ve done.

Is there any odour?

Expect a mild smell while we’re working that clears as it cures.

Is a repair better than a new one?

Typically, when the rest is in good condition. A repair avoids removal and making good. If replacing would be better, we’ll say so.

What happens after I send photos?

We look at the pictures and reply with a fixed price and some dates. If we need another angle, we’ll ask.

Repairs by material

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, so it’s always worth repairing.

Composite and resin

Composite baths are dense and solid. Chips and scratches can be filled and colour matched, in much the same way.
