Bath repair in Pant-yr-Awel, done in place
A damaged bath does not have to mean a new bathroom. We fill the damage, shape it to the curve of the bath and refinish it, with the colour mixed on site. Whether it’s scuffs and scratches in the surface and damage beneath the taps, we can help, whatever the material.
We guarantee the work for a year. If there is a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it.

Common problems we fix in Pant-yr-Awel
Heavy toiletries are the biggest single cause of chips, closely followed by shower heads. Taps and wastes cause problems too: water collects there, so chips nearby rust quickly.
The most common problems we’re called about are:
- Deep scratches in acrylic
- Hairline or through cracks in acrylic
- Rust by the waste and overflow
- Damage done while the bathroom was being fitted
What to look for in a quote

- What protection goes down before work starts
What happens on the day
From the moment we arrive, we keep the work contained to the one room. We mask off everything nearby, the job takes two to three hours for most chips, 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 tint the finish on the day to suit your bath’s shade of white or colour.
- We build up the finish and polish it into the surrounding enamel.
- We leave it to cure; you can typically use the bath the next day.
Before we arrive
- Let us know which floor the room is on
- Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
- Make sure the area is dry

Advice
Different materials, different repairs
Cast iron
A cast iron bath is heavy enough that most people never want to move it. Only the enamel surface wears or chips, and that’s the part we put right.
Composite and resin
Stone resin and composite baths are heavy and solid. Chips and scratches are filled and matched, just like other baths.
When a repair isn’t the answer
A repair is not right for every job, including:
- Water coming from the waste or taps rather than the bath
- Flexing caused by a failed cradle or loose feet
- Acrylic cracks with no access behind them
Send us pictures and we will tell you honestly.
Surfaces we repair
- Whirlpool & spa baths
- Cast iron enamel

Hospitality businesses need rooms back in use quickly, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We’ll fit around changeovers where we can.
Letting agents frequently send us photos straight from the inventory. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.
DIY repairs versus a professional job
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is generally cheaper.
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.
Questions from Pant-yr-Awel
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
Normally, when the rest is in good condition. A repair avoids removal and making good. We will tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.
Is it messy?
Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and we clean up when we have finished.
Is a holed acrylic bath repairable?
Frequently, if there is access underneath. The hole is backed, filled and refinished to match.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Of course, and it typically saves money. Send pictures of everything together and we will quote them together.
Can you redo an old repair?
Yes, we do this frequently. We strip it out, deal with any rust and repair it again.
How long does the repair take to cure?
Typically the next day. We will tell you the exact curing time when we finish.
How invisible is a bath repair?
We aim for a repair you cannot easily find. The rest of the bath’s condition makes a difference, and we will tell you what to expect.
Can you repair something that is been repaired before?
Normally, yes. We remove the old repair before doing a new one, so mention it when you send pictures.

How to care for the repair
Good habits make a big difference to how long a repair lasts:
- Have new chips seen to early
- Check that an acrylic bath doesn’t move when you stand in it
- Store metal items away from the bath
- Rinse the bath after use, especially in hard water areas
There’s nothing special to do after a repair, beyond gentle cleaning. Avoid bleach-based and gritty cleaners.
Tape over a fresh chip or crack until it’s repaired, so water can’t get in. Take it off before we arrive.
Repair or replace: which is better?
Cast iron baths in particular are worth repairing: they’re very heavy to remove, especially upstairs, and replacing like for like is not cheap. A repair keeps it in place. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Every job is a little different, so we price each one individually. The size and type of damage, the material and access all play a part, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.
