Bath repair in New Tredegar, done in place
We have repaired just about every kind of bath damage: chips from dropped bottles, rust round the plughole, cracks in acrylic and holes from falling tools. All of it is repaired where the bath stands. We are often asked to fix deep scratches in acrylic and damage done while the bathroom was being fitted, across cast iron enamel, roll-top & freestanding and whirlpool & spa baths.
We stand behind the work with a one-year guarantee, so you are not left on your own once we’ve gone.

What bath repair costs
Prices start from £95. Prices are worked out job by job. What matters most is:
- How many areas need work
- Whether we combine several jobs
- The material
- Access to the area
A repair is priced on what needs doing, not where you live. The full price is agreed before booking, with nothing added on the day.
Send photos for a quote
When you take your pictures, a few simple things make all the difference:
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- The material, if you know it
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- A wider photo showing the whole bath
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.
Should you replace it?
If the rest of the bath is in good condition, a repair is almost always the better choice. It’s quicker, cheaper and far less disruptive, and you keep the bath you chose. If the entire surface is worn, re-enamelling may make more sense, and we will tell you. Prices start from £95. Our prices are the same across the UK, with no extra for New Tredegar. The job itself decides the price: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

Honest limits
We will always be straight with you, so here’s what a repair can’t fix:
- Metal that has corroded all the way through
- A bath that flexes because its feet or cradle have failed (that needs fixing first)
- Leaks from the waste or overflow fittings (a plumber’s job)
If in doubt, send photos and we’ll say what we think before booking.
Materials we work on in New Tredegar
- Pressed steel enamel
- Cast iron enamel
- Whirlpool & spa baths
- Acrylic
- Roll-top & freestanding
What your bath is made of matters
Cast iron
Cast iron is heavy and rigid, finished with fired enamel. A chip down to the iron can rust, but the body of the bath lasts a very long time, which makes it well worth repairing.
Acrylic
An acrylic bath is a moulded sheet strengthened from below. There’s no rust, but cracks, holes and scratches happen, and cracks need support from behind to stay fixed.
What happens on the day
It’s a tidy, low-fuss visit. We confirm the time with you beforehand, protect the area, and get on with the job, which normally takes a few hours. If we find something your pictures didn’t show, we’ll explain it before carrying on.
- 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.
- Colour and gloss are matched to the surrounding surface.
- We clear up and give you the curing time, normally until the day after.
Before we arrive
- Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
- Let us know which floor the room is on
- Let us know about parking or access
Ask for a price
There’s no need for us to visit first. Nearly every job can be priced from pictures: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we will come back to you with a fixed figure.

DIY repairs versus a professional job
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is generally cheaper.
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, then guarantee it for a year.
