What affects the price in Pontybodkin
Repairs from £95. Each job gets its own fixed quote. This is what makes a difference:
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- Unusual colours or finishes
- Access to the area
- How many areas need work
A repair is priced on what needs doing, not where you live. You will see the full price before booking.
Getting a price from photos
Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what to send:
- One picture of the whole bath
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
The quickest way to a price is to send a couple of photos through our quote form or call us. We will say straight away whether it can be repaired.
How we handle bath repair in Pontybodkin
Whether your bath is steel, cast iron or acrylic, we can repair it. The method changes with the material: rust is treated on metal baths, while cracks in acrylic are reinforced from underneath. Typical jobs include damage done while the bathroom was being fitted and rust by the waste and overflow, across pressed steel enamel, acrylic and roll-top & freestanding.
Peace of mind is built in: each job carries a one-year guarantee, and we will explain exactly what it covers when we quote.

Repair or replace in Pontybodkin?
A repair makes sense whenever the damage is localised. It costs far less than a new bath plus fitting, it’s done in one visit, and the bathroom stays exactly as it is. Prices start from £95. A repair generally costs much less than people expect, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Send pictures and we will give you the exact figure.
Why book with us
- Nothing taken out or refitted
- Normally one visit, start to finish
- Repair technicians who travel to you, UK-wide
- Every repair guaranteed for a year

The process
A typical visit goes like this: we arrive on time, sheet and mask the area around the job, do the job and clear up. Allow two to three hours for most chips from start to finish. Before leaving, we tell you when it can be used and how to care for it.
- Dust sheets and masking go down around the bath.
- The damaged area is cleaned, keyed and degreased, and any rust is treated.
- Filler goes in and is sanded flush once it has set.
- We match both the colour and the shine.
- We tidy up and tell you when the bath can be used, typically the day after.
Preparing for the visit
- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
- Let us know about parking or access
Ask for a price
A quote takes minutes to ask for: take one close-up and one wider shot of the bath, add your postcode and send them over. What comes back is a fixed price, not a guess.

How to care for the repair
Simple care helps the repair last. Our advice:
- Do not scrub with anything abrasive
- Store metal items away from the bath
- Ensure an acrylic bath is firm underfoot
- Get a dripping tap fixed promptly
Treat the repaired area like the rest of the bath: warm water, washing-up liquid and a soft cloth. Avoid scourers and gritty cream cleaners.
Tape over a fresh chip or crack until it’s repaired, to keep water out. Remove it before the repair.

Can I fix it myself?
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is generally the cheaper route.
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
Different materials, different repairs
Acrylic
Acrylic feels warm and is light, but it relies on good support. Repairs to cracks are reinforced from the back.
Composite and resin
Composite baths are dense and solid. Chips and scratches can be filled and colour matched, in much the same way.
Pontybodkin: your questions answered
Can you repair a hole in a bath?
In most cases. Send us a photo of the hole and one from under the bath if you can.
Is a bath repair durable?
Done properly, a repair lasts for years, and ours come with a one-year guarantee. Gentle cleaning helps it last.
How long does the repair take to cure?
Normally by the following day, though it depends on what we have done.
Is repairing better than replacing?
Generally, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. We’ll be honest if it’s not worth it.
Will the price change on the day?
The price is fixed for what the pictures show. If there’s more, we will tell you before starting.
Do I have to be there?
Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time that suits you.
Do the materials smell?
Some materials have a smell while they’re applied, so we ventilate the room. It clears as the materials cure.
Do you work in Pontybodkin?
Yes. We work across the UK and come to Pontybodkin and the rest of Flintshire. Send pictures and we will quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
