About our bath repair in Pengam
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. If you are dealing with a chipped rim or side and a cracked acrylic bath, we can help, on roll-top & freestanding, acrylic and pressed steel enamel alike.
Peace of mind is built in: each job carries a one-year guarantee, and we’ll explain exactly what it covers when we quote.

What happens on the day
Expect a friendly, tidy visit. We agree the arrival time in advance, protect the area, and get on with the job, which normally takes two to three hours for most chips. If we find something your pictures didn’t show, we will explain it before carrying on.
- First, we check the damage against your photos 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.
- Finally, it’s polished to match the shine and left to cure.
How to prepare
- Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
- Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
- Open a window if you can
Ask for a price
To get a price, send two or three photos using our quote form or ring us. We will tell you honestly whether it can be repaired.
Advice
Signs you need bath repair in Pengam
Rust usually starts where water sits, by the plughole, beneath dripping taps or in an unrepaired chip. Once water reaches the steel or iron, rust spreads under the enamel.
If you can see any of these, send us a picture:
- Chips on the rim or sides
- A chip where the taps sit
- Deep scratches in acrylic
- A failed DIY repair that is discoloured or lifting
Before booking anyone
- Aftercare advice
- Whether there are any call-out or travel charges
- Who turns up on the day
- Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT
Keeping it looking good
Looking after the surface is easy:
- Ensure an acrylic bath is firm underfoot
- Protect the bath with a towel when doing jobs nearby
- Clean with warm water and a mild detergent
- Rinse the bath after use, especially in hard water areas
There is nothing special to do after a repair, just sensible cleaning. Avoid bleach-based and gritty cleaners and rinse after use.
Rust spreads under enamel faster than most people expect. Left for months, a small chip can grow into a large rust patch, so early repair keeps the cost down.
Prices and what affects them
Repairs from £95. We price every job individually. The main factors are:
- How many areas need work
- The colour and finish to match
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- How easy the damage is to reach
Compared with replacing, a repair is normally a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. The quote lists exactly what you are paying for.
Send photos for a quote
The better the pictures, the more accurate the price. Here’s what we find most useful:
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
Most customers in Pengam get their price from photos. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we will reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.
Pengam: your questions answered
I tried a repair kit. Can you fix it?
Yes. We remove the old filler and start again. Tell us about it when you send photos.
What information do you need?
Some pictures, your postcode and how to reach you. On the day, we only need access to the room.
What about rust by the waste?
Yes. We remove the rust and loose enamel, seal and fill the area, then colour-match the finish.
Do you hold any accreditations?
Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.
Is there any odour?
A little, depending on the job. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum, and it soon fades.
Will the price change on the day?
The price is fixed for what the pictures show. Anything extra is discussed before we begin.
Is it safe with children and pets around?
Just keep them out of the work area. We’ll tell you when the room can be used again.
Is a bath repair durable?
Done properly, a repair lasts for years, and ours come with a one-year guarantee. Gentle cleaning helps it last.
Repair or replace in Pengam?
Replacing a bath rarely stops at the bath: tiles along the rim generally crack when it comes out, a new panel is frequently needed, and the plumbing has to be disconnected and refitted. Repairing the damage avoids all of that. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. We don’t add extras on the day. The price we quote from your pictures is the price you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.
What you get with us
- No need to remove anything
- We come to you, anywhere in the UK
- No extra charge for your area
- We leave the room as we found it

DIY repairs versus a professional job
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully and work on a clean, dry surface, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.
