Aftercare tips

Looking after the surface is easy:

  • Keep metal cans and razors off the surface
  • Make sure an acrylic bath is firm underfoot
  • Clean with warm water and a mild detergent
  • Don’t leave a fresh chip for long

Treat the repaired area like the rest of the bath: a soft cloth and washing-up liquid is all it needs. Keep scouring pads and gritty cleaners away from it.

A small chip is a quick job. Left alone, they stain and can rust, so early repair saves time and money.

Repairing versus replacing in Pont-newydd

A repair makes sense whenever the damage is localised. It’s a fraction of the cost of a new bath and fitting, it’s done in one visit, and the bathroom stays exactly as it is. Our bath repair starts from £95. Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Send photos and we will give you the exact figure.

Why book with us

  • Colour mixed on the day to match
  • Generally one visit, start to finish
  • Free fixed quotes from pictures
  • CHAS and Constructionline accredited

What a repair can’t fix

A repair isn’t always the answer, and we will tell you before we start. We cannot fix:

  • Water coming from the waste or taps rather than the bath
  • A bath that flexes because its feet or cradle have failed (that needs fixing first)
  • A whole bath that is dull or worn, where a full re-enamel is the better fix

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

Materials we work on in Pont-newydd

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

What we do, step by step

Nothing needs to be moved out of the room. Everything we use comes in the van with us, put protection down and get going once we have agreed what we’re doing. Most jobs take a few hours, depending on the damage, and you can get on with other things while we’re there.

  1. Dust sheets and masking go down around the bath.
  2. We clean, key and degrease the damage, and any rust is treated.
  3. Filler goes in and is sanded flush once it has set.
  4. We match both the colour and the shine.
  5. We clear up and give you the curing time, normally until the next day.

Preparing for the visit

  • Keep a parking space free if you can
  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
  • Have a window or extractor fan available

Advice

What bath repair costs

Repairs from £95. You’ll know the full cost before booking. We take into account:

  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • How much damage there is
  • The colour and finish to match
  • The material

No two jobs are quite the same, so we price each one individually. The size and type of damage, the material and access all play a part, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

How to get a fixed quote

It only takes a minute to photograph the damage, and it saves a visit. Try to send:

  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • The material, if you know it

For a price in Pont-newydd, photos are the quickest way: a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode. We reply with a fixed quote and our next available dates.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is generally cheaper.

We understand the appeal of fixing it 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.

Pont-newydd: your questions answered

Is there a call-out fee?

No. Our quotes include travel, and we charge the same wherever you are.

I rent my home. Can I book you?

Yes, though it’s best to check with your landlord first. Many landlords are happy for a repair to be arranged.

Can you redo an old repair?

Regularly. We strip it out, deal with any rust and repair it again.

How long before I can use the bath?

Typically within a day, though it depends on what we’ve done.

Can you repair several things at once?

Of course, and it typically saves money. Just add the extra items to your pictures and you will get one combined price.

Do the materials smell?

Expect a mild smell while we are working, which fades afterwards.

What information do you need?

Just pictures, your postcode and a contact number. On the day, access to the room.

Can rust on a bath be repaired?

Yes, very frequently. We take it back to sound metal, seal it, fill it and match the colour.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Pont-newydd

Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which matters when someone is living in the home.

Letting agents frequently send us photos straight from the inventory. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.

What your bath is made of matters

Acrylic

Acrylic feels warm and is light, but it relies on good support. Cracks are strengthened from behind before the front is finished.

Pressed steel

Pressed steel is thinner and lighter, with an enamel finish like cast iron. Chips rust quickly on steel, particularly by the plughole, so repair chips early.
