Common problems we fix in Pant-teg
A bath gets knocked about more than you’d think: bottles, shower heads and razors are dropped every day, and taps and wastes are tightened against the surface. Sooner or later, most baths pick up a chip.
Look out for any of the following:
- Hairline or through cracks in acrylic
- Damage beneath the taps
- Holes from dropped items
- Chips caused by builders

Can I fix it myself?
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.

FAQs for Pant-teg
Is my repair covered?
All our work carries a one-year guarantee. We will explain what it covers when we quote.
Can pets and children be at home?
Keep pets and children away from the work area on the day, mainly so nothing gets touched before it has cured.
Can you redo an old repair?
Regularly. We strip it out, deal with any rust and repair it again.
Do you work for landlords and businesses?
We do, regularly. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.
Do you hold any accreditations?
We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.
Can a cracked acrylic bath be fixed?
Most of the time. We reinforce the crack from behind, then fill and refinish the front, so we need access under the bath.
Is it messy?
Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we leave the room clean.
Can you match an avocado or pink bath?
Yes, coloured baths are no problem. The colour is tinted by hand on the day.
When a repair isn’t the answer
It helps to know what we cannot do:
- A bath that moves underfoot, until its support is fixed
- Rust that has eaten right through a steel bath
- Wear across the whole surface, which needs re-enamelling
If in doubt, send photos and we will say what we think.
What we work on
- Whirlpool & spa baths
- Pressed steel enamel
- Roll-top & freestanding
- Acrylic
- Cast iron enamel

What else we do in Pant-teg
What we do, step by step
Once we are through the door, we keep the work contained to the one room. We mask off everything nearby, the work takes a morning or an afternoon, depending on what we find, and we finish with a tidy-up and a look at the finished work together.
- We clean the area and remove any loose enamel or rust.
- We fill the damage and sand it flush with the surrounding surface.
- We mix the colour on the day to match your bath’s exact shade.
- We apply the finish coats and polish the repair so it blends in.
- The repair is left to cure, and most baths can be used the next day.
Before we arrive
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
- Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
Getting a price
For most jobs, photos are all we need to give you a price. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.
Advice
Work for landlords and builders
Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs in Torfaen and across the UK. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which is easier on the people living there.
We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, fixing chips and scratches before handover so nothing needs replacing. We are CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.
What affects the price in Pant-teg
Prices start from £95. Each job gets its own fixed quote. This is what makes a difference:
- What the surface is made of
- How easy the damage is to reach
- The colour and finish to match
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
A repair typically costs much less than people expect, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Photos let us give you the exact figure.
Quotes from your photos
You can typically get a fixed quote without us visiting. To make it quick:
- A photo taken from further back
- Any details about the material
- Where you are, by postcode
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
Upload a picture of the damage and a wider shot of the entire item, with your NP4 postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed price.
Aftercare tips
So the finish stays in good condition:
- Get any new chip repaired before it rusts
- Store metal items away from the bath
- Fix dripping taps early to stop staining and limescale
- Keep abrasive pads and gritty cleaners away from the bath
Give the repair the full curing time we recommend before using the bath. After that, gentle cleaning keeps it looking good.
Stop using the bath if a crack lets water through. Water under the bath can damage the floor and the ceiling below.
Should you replace it?
A new bath costs more than the bath itself: taking out the old one, plumbing, tiling, a panel and redecorating. With a repair, it’s one visit and one price. Our bath repair starts from £95. No two jobs are quite the same, so each one is priced on its own. The size and type of damage, the material and access all play a part, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.
