Bath repair at your home in Penyrheol
Small damage on a bath is worth repairing early. Exposed metal on enamelled baths soon rusts, while cracks in acrylic grow each time the bath moves. A repair stops both. Typical jobs include chips along the edge of the bath and snagging damage from a refit, in acrylic, cast iron enamel and roll-top & freestanding.
A one-year guarantee comes with the work, just as it does everywhere we cover.

Penyrheol: your questions answered
Do you cover Penyrheol?
Yes. We cover the entire UK and travel to Penyrheol. Send photos and we will quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
Does someone need to be in?
We need someone to let us in. After that, you can carry on with your day.
Do you repair coloured baths?
Yes. The colour is mixed on site to suit your bath, including pastel and older colours.
What happens once I’ve sent photos?
We come back with a fixed quote. You are under no obligation.
Will it make a mess?
Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and tidy up before we leave.
What happens if you find more damage?
We stop, show you and agree any change before carrying on. You won’t be charged for anything you haven’t agreed.
How soon can you come?
We’ll give you dates with your quote. If it’s urgent, say so and we’ll do what we can.
How long does the repair take to cure?
Generally within a day, though it depends on what we have done.
Aftercare tips
A little care keeps the finish looking good. We recommend:
- If an acrylic bath flexes, have its feet adjusted
- Put a towel in the bath if you’re working above it
- Get a dripping tap fixed promptly
- Have new chips seen to early
Give the repair the full curing time we recommend before using the bath. From then on, mild cleaning is all it needs.
Do not leave a chip on a steel or cast iron bath. Once water reaches the metal, rust begins, turning a quick repair into a bigger one.
Should I try a DIY kit first?
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.
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.
Landlord and trade work in Penyrheol
We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out pictures. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.
We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Penyrheol 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?
A new bath brings a chain of other jobs: the tiles sitting on the rim tend to break, a new panel is often 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 do not add extras on the day. What we quote from your pictures is what you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.
Why book with us
- No extra charge for your area
- Accredited with CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor

Different materials, different repairs
Pressed steel
Steel baths are lighter than cast iron, but have a similar enamel surface. Exposed steel rusts fast, especially around the waste, so early repairs matter.
Cast iron
Cast iron is heavy and rigid, with a fused enamel surface. Chips can rust if left, but the body of the bath lasts a very long time, which makes it well worth repairing.
What happens on the day
The work is clean and fairly quiet, so you can stay at home while we’re there. We protect the area first, then the work takes a morning or an afternoon. Before we leave, we explain how soon it can be used and how to look after it.
- First, we check the damage against your pictures 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.
- We tint the finish by hand to match the bath.
- Finally, it’s polished to match the shine and left to cure.
Preparing for the visit
- Keep a parking space free if you can
- Let the surface dry out before the visit
- Have a window or extractor fan available
