Bath repair in Neath Abbey, done in place
Whether your bath is steel, cast iron or acrylic, we can repair it. Each material is repaired a little differently: rust is treated on metal baths, while cracks in acrylic are reinforced from underneath. We regularly repair acrylic, whirlpool & spa baths and cast iron enamel, and people most often call us about impact holes in acrylic and a kit repair that didn’t last.
All of our repairs are guaranteed for twelve months in Neath Abbey and everywhere else. We return to put right any problem with the work.

How the visit works
Arrival times are agreed in advance, so you know when to expect us. Once we’re there, the work takes two to three hours for most chips in most cases. The room is left tidy and ready to use once it has cured.
- We protect the bath and the floor around it.
- We clean, key and degrease the damage, and any rust is treated.
- Filler goes in and is sanded flush once it has set.
- We match both the colour and the shine.
- We clear up and give you the curing time, normally until the following day.
Preparing for the visit
- Open a window if you can
- Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
- Tell us about parking, stairs or access

- A hole punched through by something heavy
- Hairline or through cracks in acrylic
- Damage done while the bathroom was being fitted
- Rust spots around the plughole

Repair or replace: which is better?
If the rest of the bath is in good condition, a repair is almost always the better choice. It costs less, takes less time and causes far less upheaval, and the bathroom stays as it is. If the whole surface is worn, re-enamelling may make more sense, and we’ll tell you. Prices start from £95. We do not add extras on the day. What we quote from your photos is what you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.

Different materials, different repairs
Acrylic
Acrylic is light and warm to the touch, but it relies on good support. Cracks are strengthened from behind before the front is finished.
Cast iron
Cast iron is heavy and rigid, finished with fired enamel. A chip down to the iron can rust, but the bath itself lasts for generations, which makes it well worth repairing.
Work for landlords and builders
For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover, saving last-minute replacements. We can visit several plots in one trip to keep costs down.
Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets cannot afford rooms out of action for long, so we keep visits short and tidy. We’ll fit around changeovers where we can.
What bath repair costs
Prices start from £95. You’ll know the full cost before booking. We take into account:
- How easy the damage is to reach
- How many areas need work
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- How many items we do on one visit
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 doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.
Quotes from your photos
Good photos mean an accurate price. Here’s what we find most useful:
- The material, if you know it
- Natural light rather than flash
- Details of any past repairs
- One picture of the whole bath
The quickest way to a price is to send two or three pictures using our quote form or ring us. We’ll say immediately if a repair is the right fix.
Neath Abbey questions
Does someone need to be in?
Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time we agree with you.
Do you cover the entire of Neath Port Talbot?
We work UK-wide, and that includes Neath Abbey. Prices don’t change with location.
Is a bath repair permanent?
It should, as long as the bath is firm and the area was prepared well. It carries our one-year guarantee.
Can landlords book you?
Yes. We carry out repairs for householders, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses.
What happens after I send pictures?
We look at the photos and reply with a fixed price and some dates. If we need another angle, we’ll ask.
Is there any odour?
It depends on the job, but often a little. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum.
Will the price change on the day?
The price is fixed for what the photos show. Anything extra is discussed before we begin.
I tried a repair kit. Can you fix it?
Yes. We remove the old filler and start again. Tell us about it when you send pictures.
Should I try a DIY kit first?
If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is normally the cheaper route.
Keeping it looking good
Once the work has cured, treat it gently:
- Get any new chip repaired before it rusts
- Give the bath a quick rinse after use
- Fix dripping taps early to stop staining and limescale
- Don’t leave razors or cans standing in the bath
Use gentle, non-abrasive cleaners and avoid dropping heavy items on the repaired area. Get any new chip seen to quickly, before rust sets in.
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.
