About our bath repair in Pant-y-ffynnon
Most bath damage, from chips and cracks to rust spots and holes, can be repaired with the bath left exactly where it is. There’s no plumbing to disconnect, the tiles aren’t touched, and the repaired area is colour matched so it blends in. We regularly repair cast iron enamel, whirlpool & spa baths and acrylic, and common reasons people get in touch are holes from dropped items and a chipped rim or side.
You are covered for a year from the day of the repair. If anything is not right, ring us and we’ll sort it.

Should I try a DIY kit first?
For a hairline mark somewhere you will never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.
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.
Your questions about bath repair in Pant-y-ffynnon
Are you accredited?
We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.
What do you need from me?
Photos of the damage, a photo of the whole bath and your postcode. After that, we just agree a date.
Is the work guaranteed?
Every repair comes with our one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.
Is a bath repair durable?
Yes, if it’s prepared properly and the bath is sound. It’s covered by our one-year guarantee.
Can you repair a crack in an acrylic bath?
Generally, yes, as long as we can get to the back of the crack to support it. Check under the bath panel, or send us a photo.
Will it make a mess?
Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we take our waste away with us.
Do I have to be there?
Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time we agree with you.
Will the price change on the day?
The price is fixed for what the photos show. If there is more, we will tell you before starting.
What happens on the day
We turn up at the time we agreed with you, introduces themselves and checks the damage against your photos first. The floor and nearby surfaces are covered before any work starts. The work itself takes a few hours, depending on the damage, and the room is left clean and tidy.
- We clean the area and remove any loose enamel or rust.
- We fill the damage and sand it flush with the surrounding surface.
- The colour is mixed on the spot to match your bath.
- 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 day after.
How to prepare
- Make sure the area is dry
- Let us know if it has been repaired before
- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
Ask for a price
Pricing is simple: take a close-up of the damage and a picture from further back, send them over with your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price. There’s no charge for the quote and no obligation.
Advice
Honest limits
A repair isn’t always the answer, and we will tell you before we start. We cannot fix:
- Acrylic cracks with no access behind them
- A whole bath that is dull or worn, where a full re-enamel is the better fix
- Rust that has eaten right through a steel bath
If in doubt, send photos and we will say what we think.
Materials we repair
- Roll-top & freestanding
- Acrylic
- Pressed steel enamel
- Whirlpool & spa baths
- Cast iron enamel
Signs you need bath repair in Pant-y-ffynnon
Most bath damage comes from something dropped: a shampoo bottle, a shower head, a tile or a tool during a refit. On enamelled baths, a chip that reaches the metal will start to rust.
Typical reasons for a call-out include:
- A hole punched through by something heavy
- Rust by the waste and overflow
- A chipped rim or side
- An old repair that has yellowed or come loose

Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £95. Every quote is fixed and free. What we look at:
- How many items we do on one visit
- What kind of damage it is
- How many areas need work
- The colour and finish to match
We charge the same wherever you are, so there is no premium for Pant-y-ffynnon. What changes the price is the job itself: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.
Getting a price from pictures
Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what to send:
- One picture of the entire bath
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- Any details about the material
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: photograph the damage, then the whole bath, include your postcode and send them over. What comes back is a fixed price, not a guess.
Looking after it afterwards
After the repair has cured, a few habits help it last:
- Do not leave a fresh chip for long
- Check that an acrylic bath doesn’t move when you stand in it
- Store metal items away from the bath
- Use a soft cloth and washing-up liquid for everyday cleaning
Clean with mild, non-abrasive cleaners and avoid dropping heavy items on the repaired area. Deal with new chips early, before rust can start.
A chip on a metal bath shouldn’t be left. Water gets to the metal and rust starts, turning a quick repair into a bigger one.

Different materials, different repairs
Acrylic
Acrylic is light and warm to the touch, but it needs firm support underneath. Cracks are strengthened from behind before the front is finished.
Pressed steel
Pressed steel is thinner and lighter, with an enamel finish like cast iron. Chips rust quickly on steel, particularly by the plughole, so early repairs matter.
