Bath chip & crack repair in Pontrobert, Powys
Bath repair in Pontrobert without the cost of replacing. Send us pictures for a fixed price, then book a visit.
- Repairs from £95
- Damage done while the bathroom was being fitted
- Chips on the rim or sides
Looking after it afterwards
Once the work has cured, treat it gently:
- Cover the bath during DIY or decorating
- If an acrylic bath flexes, have its feet adjusted
- Use a soft cloth and washing-up liquid for everyday cleaning
- Do not scrub with anything abrasive
Treat the repaired area like the rest of the bath: warm water, washing-up liquid and a soft cloth. Keep scouring pads and gritty cleaners away from it.
Small chips are quick to repair. Leave them and they collect dirt, stain and, on metal baths, rust, so early repair saves time and money.
Bath repair in Pontrobert without replacing anything
A repair fixes just the damaged area and blends it into the rest of the bath, which costs far less than replacing a fitted bath and the tiles around it. Most baths can be used again the day after. We work on pressed steel enamel, cast iron enamel and roll-top & freestanding, and people most often call us about chips on the rim or sides and a failed DIY repair that’s discoloured or lifting.
All our work is covered by a one-year guarantee, wherever you are in Powys.

Repairs by material
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.
Acrylic
Acrylic is light and warm to the touch, but it needs firm support underneath. Repairs to cracks are reinforced from the back.
Should I try a DIY kit first?
A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and then the old filler has to be removed first.

When a repair isn’t the answer
Before booking, it’s worth knowing the limits too:
- A steel bath rusted through
- A bath that moves underfoot, until its support is fixed
- A bath worn all over, where resurfacing makes more sense
Send us pictures and we will tell you honestly before you book.

Landlord and trade work in Pontrobert
Letting agents frequently send us pictures 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.
Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.
Common questions in Pontrobert
Can landlords book you?
We do, regularly. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.
Do you cover Pontrobert?
Yes, we do. We send a technician to Pontrobert for every job, with no extra charge for travel.
How long before I can use the bath?
Normally the following day. We confirm the time before we leave.
Will you leave a mess?
Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we leave the room clean.
How do I get a price for bath repair in Pontrobert?
Repairs from £95. Because every job differs, we price from photos. You’ll get a fixed figure before booking.
What happens after I send pictures?
We come back with a fixed price. You’re under no obligation.
Can you repair a failed DIY repair?
Regularly. We strip it out, deal with any rust and repair it again.
Is it safe with children and pets around?
We ask you to keep children and pets out of the room while we work and until it has cured. Everywhere else in the home is fine.
The process
Once we’re through the door, we keep the work contained to the one room. We mask off everything nearby, the job takes a morning or an afternoon, and we finish with a tidy-up and a look at the finished work together.
- First, the area is cleaned and any loose enamel or rust is removed.
- The chip or crack is filled, then sanded level with the bath.
- 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, typically by the next day, the bath is ready to use.
Preparing for the visit
- Ensure the area is dry
- Tell us about parking, stairs or access
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
Ask for a price
Upload a picture of the damage and a wider shot of the whole item, and tell us you are in Pontrobert, and we’ll come back with a fixed quote.
