Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £95. You won’t pay by the hour. The price depends on:
- What the surface is made of
- The type of damage
- How many items we do on one visit
- The size and number of damaged areas
Every job is a little different, so each one is priced on its own. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all play a part, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.
How to get a fixed price
The better the pictures, the more accurate the price. Here’s what helps:
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- Natural light rather than flash
- Where you are, by postcode
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
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.
Questions from Pontneddfechan
Do you hold any accreditations?
We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.
How long does the repair take to cure?
Normally within a day, depending on the repair.
What happens after I send photos?
You get a fixed price and available dates. If we need another angle, we will ask.
Do you repair coloured baths?
Yes, coloured baths are no problem. The colour is tinted by hand on the day.
Is a cracked acrylic bath repairable?
Frequently, yes, as long as we can get to the back of the crack to support it. Check under the bath panel, or send us a photo.
Can you repair several things at once?
Of course, and it typically saves money. Just add the extra items to your photos and we will quote them together.
Can you repair a failed DIY repair?
Yes, we do this often. We strip it out, deal with any rust and repair it again.
Is a holed acrylic bath repairable?
Typically, yes, if we can reach behind it. The hole is backed, filled and refinished to match.
Signs you need bath repair in Pontneddfechan
Glass and heavy bottles cause more chips than anything else, with dropped shower heads close behind. Taps and wastes cause problems too: water sits around them, and any chip there soon rusts.
Look out for any of the following:
- Cracks in an acrylic bath
- Damage done while the bathroom was being fitted
- A hole punched through by something heavy
- An old repair that has yellowed or come loose
Questions to ask before you book
- A fixed quote, and whether VAT is included
- Whether the colour is mixed to match
- How long the guarantee is and what it covers
- What prep work is covered
For landlords and businesses
We’re used to working with agents and managing companies. Send the address, pictures and access details.
Rental properties take more wear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.
How the visit works
Expect a friendly, tidy visit. We agree the arrival time in advance, cover and mask the work area, and get on with the job, which normally takes a few hours, depending on the damage. If we find something your pictures didn’t show, we will explain it before carrying on.
- We protect the bath and the floor around it.
- The damaged area is cleaned, keyed and degreased, and any rust is treated.
- We fill it, let it set, then sand it flush.
- Colour and gloss are matched to the surrounding surface.
- We clear up and give you the curing time, normally until the day after.
How to prepare
- Point us to the nearest place to park
- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
- Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
Getting a price
There’s no need for us to visit first. Nearly every job can be priced from pictures: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote.

When a repair is not the answer
Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:
- A bath that flexes because its feet or cradle have failed (that needs fixing first)
- A steel bath rusted through
- A whole bath that is dull or worn, where a full re-enamel is the better fix
Send us photos and we will tell you honestly.
Surfaces we repair
- Pressed steel enamel
- Whirlpool & spa baths
- Acrylic
- Roll-top & freestanding
- Cast iron enamel
Keeping it looking good
Good habits make a big difference to how long a repair lasts. Here’s what we suggest:
- Protect the bath with a towel when doing jobs nearby
- Stick to mild cleaners and a soft cloth
- Do not leave razors or cans standing in the bath
- If an acrylic bath flexes, have its feet adjusted
In the first few days, avoid putting weight or bottles on the repair. After that, normal gentle cleaning is fine without abrasive products.
Tape over a fresh chip or crack until it’s repaired, so water cannot get in. Take it off before we arrive.
What your bath is made of matters
Acrylic
Acrylic baths are moulded sheet reinforced underneath. They do not rust, but they can crack, scratch or be holed, and cracks need support from behind to stay fixed.
Pressed steel
Steel baths and trays have a thin metal body under the enamel. Exposed steel rusts quickly, so we treat and seal the metal before filling.
Can I fix it myself?
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, make sure the area is clean and completely dry, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair will not last.
