Landlord and trade work in Pentrechwyth
Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.
We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Pentrechwyth as well as householders. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it normally costs far less than a refit.
Bath repair in Pentrechwyth without replacing anything
Repairing baths is what we do most. A chip by the taps, a crack in the base and a rust spot by the plughole are all repaired in place, normally in one visit. If you’re dealing with damage beneath the taps and hairline or through cracks in acrylic, we can typically put it right.
All of our repairs are guaranteed for twelve months in Pentrechwyth and everywhere else. We return to put right any problem with the work.

How it works
A typical visit goes like this: we arrive at the agreed slot, protect everything around the work area, carry out the work and tidy away. Plan for a few hours, depending on the damage from start to finish. Before we go, we will explain when it can be used and what to avoid for the first few days.
- First, the area is cleaned and any loose enamel or rust is removed.
- The chip or crack is filled, then sanded level with the bath.
- The colour is mixed on the spot to match your bath.
- We apply the finish coats and polish the repair so it blends in.
- Once it has cured, typically by the following day, the bath is ready to use.
Preparing for the visit
- Keep a parking space free if you can
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access

Advice
FAQs for Pentrechwyth
Can a cracked acrylic bath be fixed?
Most of the time. We reinforce the crack from behind, then fill and refinish the front, so we need access under the bath.
Can tenants book a repair?
Yes, but check with your landlord or agent first. Many landlords are happy for a repair to be arranged before the end of a tenancy.
Does someone need to be in?
Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time we agree with you.
Do you cover Pentrechwyth?
We do. Repair technicians travel to Pentrechwyth from across the region, and the price is the same as everywhere else.
I tried a repair kit. Can you fix it?
Regularly. The old material comes out, any rust is treated, then we repair it properly.
Something went through my bath. Can it be fixed?
In most cases. Photos of the hole and the underside help us check.
What happens once I’ve sent pictures?
You will get a fixed quote back, normally with dates to choose from. You are under no obligation.
Do you repair coloured baths?
Yes, coloured baths are no problem. The colour is tinted by hand on the day.
Different materials, different repairs
Acrylic
An acrylic bath is a moulded sheet strengthened from below. They do not rust, but they can crack, scratch or be holed, and a crack only stays repaired if it’s supported underneath.
Pressed steel
Steel baths are lighter than cast iron, but have a similar enamel surface. Chips rust quickly on steel, particularly by the plughole, so repair chips early.
When a repair is not the answer
A repair is not always the answer, and we’d rather say so up front. Repairs will not solve:
- A bath that moves underfoot, until its support is fixed
- Water coming from the waste or taps rather than the bath
- Metal that has corroded all the way through
Not sure? Send pictures and we’ll give you a straight answer before you book.

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 the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair will not last.

Keeping it looking good
Good habits make a big difference to how long a repair lasts:
- Put a towel in the bath if you are working above it
- Have new chips seen to early
- Do not scrub with anything abrasive
- If an acrylic bath flexes, have its feet adjusted
Give the repair the full curing time we recommend before running a bath. After that, gentle cleaning keeps it looking good.
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 it pays to deal with it early.
