How we handle bath repair in Pontlliw
You do not need a new bath because of a chip. Our technicians fill, shape and refinish the damage, mixing the colour on the day so the repair is hard to spot. Common call-outs are for rusty patches near the plughole and chips along the edge of the bath, in pressed steel enamel, cast iron enamel and roll-top & freestanding.
All of our repairs are guaranteed for twelve months, and the guarantee is the same wherever you live. If something goes wrong with the work, we come back.

What happens on the day
We turn up at the time we agreed with you and looks over the damage before anything else. The floor and nearby surfaces are covered before we open a single tin. Most visits take a morning or an afternoon, and we leave the room as we found it.
- We start by cleaning the damage and taking out loose enamel and rust.
- Next we fill the damage and sand it smooth and level.
- We mix the colour on the day to match your bath’s exact shade.
- Finish coats go on, then the repair is polished to blend in.
- We leave it to cure; you can normally use the bath the next day.
How to prepare
- Let us know about parking or access
- Keep a parking space free if you can
- Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area

What a repair cannot fix
We will always be straight with you, so here’s what a repair can’t fix:
- Wear across the whole surface, which needs re-enamelling
- Rust that has eaten right through a steel bath
- A bath that moves underfoot, until its support is fixed
Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly before booking.
Materials we repair
- Acrylic
- Roll-top & freestanding
- Cast iron enamel
- Pressed steel enamel
- Whirlpool & spa baths
For landlords and businesses
Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Pontlliw use us as well as homeowners. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it costs much less than replacing.
For anyone letting property in or around Pontlliw, we’ll quote for several properties at once. Send photos for each one and we’ll price them together.
What affects the price in Pontlliw
Prices start from £95. We charge the same across the UK, including Pontlliw. The price reflects:
- How many areas need work
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- What kind of damage it is
- How easy the damage is to reach
What it costs depends on the type and amount of damage, the material and how many jobs we combine into one visit. We give a fixed price from your pictures, so you know the cost before booking.
How to get a fixed price
Most quotes are done from pictures alone. To help us price it:
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- What it’s made of, if you know
- One picture of the entire bath
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
For most jobs, photos are all we need to give you a price. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we will send back a fixed quote and some dates.
What your bath is made of matters
Cast iron
Cast iron baths are so heavy that repairing in place makes obvious sense. Only the enamel surface wears or chips, and that’s the part we put right.
Acrylic
Acrylic is light and warm to the touch, but it relies on good support. Repairs to cracks are reinforced from the back.
Do you need bath repair in Pontlliw?
Baths take more knocks than people expect: bottles, shower heads and razors are dropped every day, and fittings press hard against the enamel. Sooner or later, most baths pick up a chip.
These are the problems we’re asked about most:
- A chip where the taps sit
- Deep scratches in acrylic
- Damage done while the bathroom was being fitted
- Cracks in an acrylic bath
Questions to ask before you book
- If travel is included in the price
- Who will actually do the work
- Whether the colour is mixed to match
- What happens if the damage is worse than the photos show
Aftercare tips
So the finish stays in good condition:
- Rinse the bath after use, especially in hard water areas
- Stick to mild cleaners and a soft cloth
- Check that an acrylic bath doesn’t move when you stand in it
- Fix dripping taps early to stop staining and limescale
In the first few days, avoid putting weight or bottles on the repair. After that, clean it as you would the rest of the bath, avoiding abrasives.
If water is getting through a crack, stop using the bath. Leaks under a bath can damage floors and ceilings.
Can I fix it myself?
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is typically cheaper.
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, it’s worth having it done properly.

Yes: twelve months. If there is a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.
