About our bath repair in Pen-rallt
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, mixing the colour on the day so the repair is hard to spot. We regularly repair acrylic, whirlpool & spa baths and cast iron enamel, and the jobs we see most are hairline or through cracks in acrylic and damage beneath the taps.
Big or small, it’s backed by a one-year guarantee.

What we do, step by step
Once we are through the door, the aim is to do the job without disturbing the rest of your home. We mask off everything nearby, the work takes two to three hours for most chips, depending on what we find, and we finish with a tidy-up and a look at the finished work together.
- First, we check the damage against your pictures and agree the plan.
- Any rust and loose material comes out, and the area is degreased.
- We build up the filler in layers, shaping it to the bath.
- The colour is tinted by hand until it matches.
- The repair is polished to the same gloss as the bath and left to cure.
Getting ready for the visit
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
- Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
- Have a window or extractor fan available

Advice
DIY kit or professional repair?
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, ensure the area is clean and completely dry, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
When we’d advise against a repair
Before booking, it’s worth knowing the limits:
- Rust that has eaten right through a steel bath
- Acrylic cracks with no access behind them
- A bath that moves underfoot, until its support is fixed
Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly.

Pen-rallt questions
Are you accredited?
We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.
Is there a call-out fee?
There is no separate call-out charge. The fixed price covers the visit and the work.
Will I be able to see the repair?
The goal is a repair that blends in. The rest of the bath’s condition makes a difference.
What happens once I’ve sent photos?
We check the damage, the material and your postcode, then reply with a quote.
Do the materials smell?
There may be a mild smell during the work, which fades afterwards.
What if the damage is worse than the photos show?
If we find something the photos didn’t show, we explain it first. You decide whether to go ahead.
Is a repair better than a new one?
In most cases, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. We will be honest if it’s not worth it.
When can you do it?
Your quote comes with available dates. If it’s urgent, say so and we’ll do what we can.
Different materials, different repairs
Composite and resin
Composite baths are dense and solid. Chips and scratches are filled and matched, just like other baths.
Cast iron
Cast iron is heavy and rigid, with a fused enamel surface. Chips can rust if left, but the body of the bath lasts a very long time, so it’s always worth repairing.
Work for landlords and builders
Letting agents often send us pictures straight from the inventory. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.
We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, fixing chips and scratches before handover so nothing needs replacing. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.
How to care for the repair
So the finish stays in good condition:
- Clean with warm water and a mild detergent
- Protect the bath with a towel when doing jobs nearby
- Rinse it down after each bath
- If an acrylic bath flexes, have its feet adjusted
For the first few days, keep heavy bottles off the repaired spot. After that, normal gentle cleaning is fine without abrasive products.
Don’t leave a chip on a steel or cast iron bath. Water gets to the metal and rust starts, and a rust spot is a bigger repair than a clean chip.
How we price bath repair
Repairs from £95. We do not charge extra for travel to Pen-rallt. The price depends on:
- How hard the colour is to match
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- What the surface is made of
- How many items we do on one visit
Compared with replacing, a repair is normally a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.
How to get a fixed price
We price nearly every job from photos. This is what to send:
- A wider photo showing the entire bath
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- Where you are, by postcode
Send us pictures of the damage and a wider shot of the entire item, and tell us you’re in Pen-rallt, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote.
Repairing versus replacing in Pen-rallt
When the bath is otherwise sound, repairing beats replacing. 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’ll tell you. Our bath repair starts from £95. Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Send photos and we will give you the exact figure.
