Bath repair for Pendre homes

Common questions in Pendre

What happens once I’ve sent pictures?

You get a fixed price and available dates. If anything’s unclear, we’ll ask for another photo.

Can you repair a chip on a coloured bath?

Yes. The colour is mixed on site to suit your bath, including older coloured suites.

Will the repair last?

It should, as long as the bath is firm and the area was prepared well. It carries our one-year guarantee.

Can you redo an old repair?

Yes. We remove the old filler and start again. Mention it when you send pictures.

Do you cover the whole of Powys?

We cover the entire UK, including Pendre and the rest of Powys. Send your postcode with your photos and we’ll confirm dates.

Will there be a smell?

It depends on the job, but frequently a little. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum, and it soon fades.

How much does bath repair cost in Pendre?

Repairs from £95. The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from photos. You know the full cost before anything is booked.

Can you quote from photos?

Nearly always. We only ask to see it in person if the pictures cannot show what we need.

Bath repair at your home in Pendre

A typical bath repair is a few hours’ work, and the bath is back in use the next day. You will not need a plumber or tiler, because the bath does not move. We regularly repair cast iron enamel, roll-top & freestanding and pressed steel enamel, and people most often call us about cracks in an acrylic bath and a hole punched through by something heavy.

We guarantee the work for a year. If something isn’t right in that time, we come back and put it right.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair will not last.

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.

Aftercare tips

To keep it looking its best:

  • Store metal items away from the bath
  • Rinse the bath after use, especially in hard water areas
  • Get any new chip repaired before it rusts
  • Check that an acrylic bath does not move when you stand in it

Use gentle, non-abrasive cleaners and try not to drop heavy bottles on the repair. Get any new chip seen to quickly, before rust sets in.

Rust spreads under enamel faster than most people expect. A chip the size of a fingernail can become a much larger patch if it’s left for months, so early repair keeps the cost down.

When we’d advise against a repair

Not everything can be repaired, and we’ll tell you before we start. Repairs won’t solve:

  • Cracks in parts of an acrylic bath we can’t get to from below
  • Rust that has eaten right through a steel bath
  • A bath that moves underfoot, until its support is fixed

If in doubt, send photos and we will say what we think.

Materials we repair

  • Whirlpool & spa baths
  • Acrylic
  • Cast iron enamel
  • Pressed steel enamel
  • Roll-top & freestanding

What bath repair costs

Repairs from £95. A fixed quote means you know the cost before you book. We take into account:

  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • How hard the colour is to match
  • How many items we do on one visit
  • The type of damage

We charge the same wherever you are, with no extra for Pendre. The job itself decides the price: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

Send photos for a quote

Good photos mean an accurate price. Here’s what helps:

  • Natural light rather than flash
  • One picture of the entire bath
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates

Getting a price is easy: take a close-up of the damage and a photo from further back, send them to us with your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote. Quotes are free and you are under no obligation.

What we do, step by step

Your technician turns up when we said we would, introduces themselves and looks over the damage before anything else. 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.

  1. Dust sheets and masking go down around the bath.
  2. The damaged area is cleaned, keyed and degreased, and any rust is treated.
  3. We fill it, let it set, then sand it flush.
  4. We match both the colour and the shine.
  5. We tidy up and tell you when the bath can be used, normally the following day.

Preparing for the visit

  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
  • Make sure the area is dry
  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift

Ask for a price

Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us photos through the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the entire bath, we can give you a fixed quote the same day in most cases.

Our hiring checklist

What your bath is made of matters

Acrylic

Acrylic feels warm and is light, but it needs firm support underneath. Repairs to cracks are reinforced from the back.

Cast iron

A cast iron bath is heavy enough that most people never want to move it. The enamel is the part that wears or chips, and that’s what we repair.
