Bath repair for Pentrefoelas homes

Repair or replace: which is better?

A new bath brings a chain of other jobs: tiles along the rim normally crack when it comes out, the panel may not fit the new one, and the plumbing has to be disconnected and refitted. A repair skips all of it. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. A repair is priced on what needs doing, not where you live. The full price is agreed before booking, with nothing added on the day.

Use the quote form or ring 0345 017 0787.

How long does the repair take to cure?

Usually the following day. We’ll tell you the exact curing time when we finish.

How invisible is a bath repair?

We aim for a repair you can’t easily find. How well it disappears depends on the condition of the rest of the bath, and we will tell you what to expect.

Do you work for landlords and businesses?

We do, regularly. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.

What does bath repair cost?

Repairs from £95. Because every job differs, we price from pictures. You know the full cost before anything is booked.

Are there extra charges for Pentrefoelas?

There is no separate call-out charge. Your fixed quote includes everything.

Do I need to be at home?

We need someone to let us in. After that, you can carry on with your day.

Common problems we fix in Pentrefoelas

Glass and heavy bottles cause more chips than anything else, with dropped shower heads close behind. Fittings cause damage too: water sits around them, and any chip there soon rusts.

Keep an eye out for any of the following:

  • A hole punched through by something heavy
  • Cracks in an acrylic bath
  • Rust spots around the plughole
  • Scuffs and scratches in the surface

What your quote should include

  • If travel is included in the price
  • How to care for the finish
  • What happens if the damage is worse than the photos show
  • Who turns up on the day

Our hiring checklist

Different materials, different repairs

Composite and resin

Composite baths are dense and solid. Chips and scratches are filled and matched, just like other baths.

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 early repairs matter.

Aftercare tips

After the repair has cured, a few habits help it last:

  • Do not scrub with anything abrasive
  • Fix dripping taps early to stop staining and limescale
  • Give the bath a quick rinse after use
  • Check that an acrylic bath doesn’t move when you stand in it

There’s nothing special to do after a repair, just sensible cleaning. Skip bleach and gritty creams.

Tape over a fresh chip or crack until it’s repaired, to keep water out. Remove it before the repair.

When a repair isn’t the answer

It helps to know what we cannot do:

  • A whole bath that’s dull or worn, where a full re-enamel is the better fix
  • Leaking fittings, which need a plumber
  • A bath that flexes because its feet or cradle have failed (that needs fixing first)

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

What we work on

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

Landlords, agents and businesses in Pentrefoelas

Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Pentrefoelas use us as well as homeowners. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it costs much less than replacing.

We’re used to working with agents and managing companies. Just send photos, the address and how to get access and we will arrange it.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is usually the cheaper route.

What we do, step by step

Visits start with a quick look at the job together, so there are no surprises. Next, we cover and mask everything nearby and the work begins. You can expect it to take two to three hours for most chips, and we will tell you if anything changes.

  1. We start by cleaning the damage and taking out loose enamel and rust.
  2. Next we fill the damage and sand it smooth and level.
  3. The colour is mixed on the spot to match your bath.
  4. We apply the finish coats and polish the repair so it blends in.
  5. We leave it to cure; you can generally use the bath the following day.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Ensure the room can be ventilated
  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
