Bath Repair for Pentwyn homes
Our technicians come to Pentwyn for chip and crack repairs to enamel, acrylic and cast iron baths. Everything is done in place, and the work is guaranteed.
- Repairs from £95
- An old repair that has yellowed or come loose
- Snagging damage from a refit
How the visit works
We agree an arrival time beforehand, so you know when to expect us. Once we’re there, the work takes a morning or an afternoon for most jobs. We leave the room clean and you’ll know when it can be used.
- First, the area is cleaned and any loose enamel or rust is removed.
- We fill the damage and sand it flush with the surrounding surface.
- We tint the finish on the day to suit your bath’s shade of white or colour.
- We build up the finish and polish it into the surrounding enamel.
- Once it has cured, normally by the next day, the bath is ready to use.
Getting ready for the visit
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
- Clear the area around the damage
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
Getting a price
A quote takes minutes to ask for: take one close-up and one wider shot of the bath, add your postcode and send them over. What comes back is a fixed quote, not a guess.

Aftercare tips
A little care keeps the finish looking good. Our advice:
- Store metal items away from the bath
- Fix dripping taps early to stop staining and limescale
- Stick to mild cleaners and a soft cloth
- Give the bath a quick rinse after use
For the first few days, keep heavy bottles off the repaired spot. After that, clean it as you would the rest of the bath without abrasive products.
A small chip is a quick job. Leave them and they collect dirt, stain and, on metal baths, rust, so it’s worth getting them done early.
Different materials, different repairs
Acrylic
An acrylic bath is a moulded sheet strengthened from below. There’s no rust, but cracks, holes and scratches happen, and cracks need support from behind to stay fixed.
Cast iron
Cast iron baths are so heavy that repairing in place makes obvious sense. Only the enamel surface wears or chips, and that is what we repair.
What affects the price in Pentwyn
Repairs from £95. We price every job individually. What matters most is:
- Doing more than one item at once
- How many areas need work
- The colour and finish to match
- What kind of damage it is
A few things move the price: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Send photos and you will get a fixed figure.
Send photos for a quote
When you take your photos, a few simple things make all the difference:
- A wider photo showing the entire bath
- The material, if you know it
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
Call 0345 017 0787 or use the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the whole bath, we can price the job the same day in most cases.

We do not add a call-out fee. The fixed quote covers the visit and the work.

Can you repair something that’s been repaired before?
Most of the time. Tell us what was done before and we will plan for it.
What a repair cannot fix
Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:
- A bath worn all over, where resurfacing makes more sense
- A bath that moves underfoot, until its support is fixed
- Cracks in acrylic we cannot reach from underneath
Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly before you book.
Materials we repair
- Whirlpool & spa baths
- Acrylic
- Pressed steel enamel
- Cast iron enamel
- Roll-top & freestanding
Signs you need bath repair in Pentwyn
The usual cause is something heavy dropped into the bath, and building work is a common culprit. Acrylic baths crack for a different reason: the bath isn’t properly supported, so it flexes under weight.
It’s worth getting a quote if you see:
- Snagging damage from a refit
- A hole punched through by something heavy
- Hairline or through cracks in acrylic
- Chips along the edge of the bath
What to look for in a quote
- The length of the guarantee and what it covers
- What happens if they find more damage
- How the room is protected while they work
- Who will actually do the work
Work for landlords and builders
For anyone letting property in or around Pentwyn, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Just send pictures for each address and we will come back with a combined price.
Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Pentwyn use us as well as homeowners. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it costs much less than replacing.
Should you replace it?
Think about the hidden costs of a new bath: removal and disposal, plumbing, a new panel, tiling and decorating. With a repair, it’s one visit and one price. Prices start from £95. The price reflects the work involved, not where you live. You will see the full price before booking.
Why book with us
- One-year guarantee on every repair
- No extra charge for your area
