What affects the price in Newbridge

Repairs from £95. Each job gets its own fixed quote. This is what makes a difference:

  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • Doing more than one item at once
  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • Access to the area

A repair is priced on what needs doing, not your postcode. The full price is agreed before booking, with nothing added on the day.

Quotes from your pictures

Before you send photos, a few simple things make all the difference:

  • Something in shot to show the size
  • Any details about the material
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • Details of any past repairs

Pricing is simple: snap the damage close up and then the whole item, send them over with your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price. There’s no charge for the quote and you’re under no obligation.

Repair or replace: which is better?

Swapping a damaged bath for a new one normally involves a plumber, lifting out the old bath, making good the tiles and panel and getting rid of the old bath. Repairing it deals only with the damage in a single visit. Prices start from £95. There are no surprise extras on the day. What we quote from your photos is what you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.

Signs you need bath repair in Newbridge

Rust tends to begin where water collects, around the waste, under the taps or in an old chip. Water on bare metal causes rust that creeps under the surrounding enamel.

Signs it’s time to call us include:

  • Deep scratches in acrylic
  • A kit repair that didn’t last
  • Rusty patches near the plughole
  • Damage beneath the taps

What your quote should include

  • What the guarantee covers, and for how long
  • What prep work is covered
  • When it can be used again
  • What aftercare is recommended

How to compare quotes

Landlord and trade work in Newbridge

Rental properties take more wear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.

If you manage property in Newbridge, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Send photos for each one and we’ll come back with a combined price.

Newbridge: your questions answered

How long does the repair take to cure?

Normally by the following day, depending on the repair.

Will I be able to see the repair?

The goal is a repair that blends in. How well it disappears depends on the condition of the rest of the bath, and we will tell you what to expect.

Can you quote from photos?

Typically, yes. Clear photos let us give you a fixed quote without visiting.

What about rust by the waste?

Yes. We remove the rust and loose enamel, seal and fill the area, then colour-match the finish.

Can you redo someone else’s repair?

Usually, yes. We remove the old repair before doing a new one.

Do you work in Newbridge?

Yes. We cover the entire UK and come to Newbridge and the rest of Wrexham. Send pictures and we will quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

Is my repair covered?

Yes, for a year. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.

Do you charge for travel?

No. Our quotes include travel, with the same prices everywhere we work.

Materials and what they mean for the repair

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.

Composite and resin

Stone resin and composite baths are heavy and solid. Chips and scratches are filled and matched, in much the same way.

Looking after it afterwards

Good habits make a big difference to how long a repair lasts. Here’s what we suggest:

  • Clean with warm water and a mild detergent
  • Cover the bath during DIY or decorating
  • Get any new chip repaired before it rusts
  • Give the bath a quick rinse after use

Treat the repaired area like the rest of the bath: warm water, washing-up liquid and a soft cloth. Avoid scourers and gritty cream cleaners.

Rust spreads under enamel faster than most people expect. Left for months, a small chip can grow into a large rust patch, so it pays to deal with it early.

What we do, step by step

Your technician turns up at the time we agreed with you, introduces themselves and checks the damage against your pictures first. Dust sheets and masking tape go down before we open a single tin. Most visits take a few hours, and the room is left clean and tidy.

  1. First, we check the damage against your photos and agree the plan.
  2. Loose enamel, rust and dirt are removed so the repair can bond.
  3. We build up the filler in layers, shaping it to the bath.
  4. The colour is tinted by hand until it matches.
  5. The repair is polished to the same gloss as the bath and left to cure.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
  • Clear the area around the damage

Advice

What a repair can’t fix

We won’t take on work that will not last, so here’s what a repair can’t put right:

  • Wear across the whole surface, which needs re-enamelling
  • Water coming from the waste or taps rather than the bath
  • A bath that moves underfoot, until its support is fixed

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