Prices and what affects them
Repairs from £95. There’s no charge for travel to Pwll-trap. The price comes down to:
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- The size and number of damaged areas
- Whether we combine several jobs
- The type of damage
It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.
Getting a price from photos
Before you send pictures, a few simple things make all the difference:
- Details of any past repairs
- What it’s made of, if you know
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- Natural light rather than flash
The quickest way to a price is to send a couple of photos through our quote form or call us. We’ll tell you honestly whether it can be repaired.
How the visit works
We work cleanly and quietly. We protect the area first, then the work takes a morning or an afternoon. At the end we talk you through how soon it can be used and how to look after it.
- We start by looking at the damage and confirming the plan with you.
- Loose enamel, rust and dirt are removed so the repair can bond.
- The damage is filled in layers and shaped to the curve of the bath.
- We tint the finish by hand to match the bath.
- The repair is polished to the same gloss as the bath and left to cure.
Getting ready for the visit
- Let the surface dry out before the visit
- Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children

Materials and what they mean for the repair
Acrylic
An acrylic bath is a moulded sheet strengthened from below. They do not rust, but they can crack, scratch or be holed, and cracks need support from behind to stay fixed.
Composite and resin
Stone resin and composite baths are heavy and solid. Chips and scratches can be filled and colour-matched, just like other baths.
Aftercare tips
Much of the damage we repair could have been avoided. A few tips:
- Put a towel in the bath if you are working above it
- Make sure an acrylic bath is firm underfoot
- Give the bath a quick rinse after use
- Get a dripping tap fixed promptly
Don’t leave razors, cans or hair grips in the bath, because they can mark the enamel. A dripping tap should be fixed early, too.
Do not leave a chip on a steel or cast iron bath. Water gets to the metal and rust starts, and a rust spot is a bigger repair than a clean chip.
What we are called out for in Pwll-trap
Rust tends to begin where water collects, around the waste, under the taps or in an old chip. Once water reaches the steel or iron, rust spreads under the enamel.
Common reasons people in Pwll-trap contact us are:
- A chip where the taps sit
- Damage done while the bathroom was being fitted
- A hole punched through by something heavy
- Hairline or through cracks in acrylic

- What aftercare is recommended
- What the guarantee covers, and for how long
- Whether the colour is mixed to match
