About our bath repair in Presteigne
We repair enamelled steel, cast iron and acrylic baths. The method changes with the material: rust is treated on metal baths, while cracks in acrylic are reinforced from underneath. If you are dealing with a chip where the taps sit and snagging damage from a refit, we can typically put it right, on whirlpool & spa baths, roll-top & freestanding and acrylic alike.
We guarantee the work for a year. If there is a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it.

What a repair can’t fix
A few problems are outside what a surface repair can do:
- Leaks from the waste or overflow fittings (a plumber’s job)
- Rust that has eaten right through a steel bath
- Acrylic cracks with no access behind them

Surfaces we repair

- Roll-top & freestanding
- Acrylic
Materials and what they mean for the repair
Cast iron
Cast iron is heavy and rigid, with a fused enamel surface. A chip down to the iron can rust, but the bath itself lasts for generations, which makes it well worth repairing.
Acrylic
Acrylic is light and warm to the touch, but it relies on good support. Cracks are strengthened from behind before the front is finished.
The process
There is not much you need to do on the day. Show us the job, point us to the room, and we will take it from there. Most visits take two to three hours for most chips, including clearing up.
- First, the area is cleaned and any loose enamel or rust is removed.
- We fill the damage and sand it flush with the surrounding surface.
- The colour is mixed on the spot to match your bath.
- Finish coats go on, then the repair is polished to blend in.
- We leave it to cure; you can normally use the bath the day after.
How to prepare
- Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
- Point us to the nearest place to park
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work

Glass and heavy bottles cause more chips than anything else, closely followed by shower heads. Taps and wastes cause problems too: water sits around them, and any chip there soon rusts.

- Rust by the waste and overflow
- A kit repair that didn’t last

Prices and what affects them
Repairs from £95. We give every job a fixed price from pictures. These are the things that affect it:
- Unusual colours or finishes
- The type of damage
- Doing more than one item at once
- How many areas need work
Instead of hourly rates, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and combining items on one visit brings it down.
Send photos for a quote
Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what we need:
- Any details about the material
- Where you are, by postcode
- Details of any past repairs
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
Email us photos of the damage and a wider shot of the entire item, with your LD8 postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote.

How to look after the repair
A little care keeps the finish looking good. We recommend:
- If an acrylic bath flexes, have its feet adjusted
- Have new chips seen to early
- Store metal items away from the bath
- Protect the bath with a towel when doing jobs nearby
Give the repair the full curing time we recommend before running a bath. From then on, mild cleaning is all it needs.
A small chip is a quick job. Leave them and they collect dirt, stain and, on metal baths, rust, so early repair saves time and money.

Common questions in Presteigne
What happens next?

Do you come to Presteigne?
Yes. We cover the entire UK and come to Presteigne and the rest of Powys. Send us photos for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
I tried a repair kit. Can you fix it?
Yes. We take out the old repair and do it properly. Mention it when you send photos.
Is a bath repair permanent?
It should, as long as the bath is firm and the area was prepared well. It carries our one-year guarantee.
Can you fix rust around the plughole?
Yes. We remove the rust and loose enamel, seal and fill the area, then colour-match the finish.
Do you cover the entire of Powys?
Everywhere in the UK, Presteigne included. Travel is included in the price.
Is there any odour?
Expect a mild smell while we are working, which fades afterwards.
Can you repair a crack in an acrylic bath?
Usually, yes, if we can reach the underside to reinforce it. Take off the bath panel and check, or send us a photo.
DIY kit or professional repair?
A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it will not stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is generally cheaper.
