Bath repair in Rhostryfan without replacing anything
Small damage on a bath is worth repairing early. Exposed metal on enamelled baths soon rusts, and on acrylic, a crack keeps spreading while the bath flexes. A repair stops both. We’re often asked to fix chips on the rim or sides and rusty patches near the plughole, across roll-top & freestanding, acrylic and pressed steel enamel.
All our work comes with our one-year guarantee.

Your questions about bath repair in Rhostryfan
How soon can you come?
It depends on the time of year and where you are. We’ll offer you dates when we send your quote.
Is repairing better than replacing?
In most cases, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. If it is not worth repairing, we’ll tell you.
Can I get a quote without a visit?
Yes, almost always. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed quote.
Is it messy?
Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we take our waste away with us.
Do you do work for letting agents?
Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as homeowners.
Is there a guarantee?
Yes: twelve months. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.
Do you charge for travel?
We don’t add a call-out fee. The fixed quote covers the visit and the work.
Can tenants book a repair?
Yes, though it’s best to check with your landlord first. Landlords are often glad to have it sorted.

Repairs by material
Composite and resin
Composite baths are dense and solid, and often freestanding. Chips and scratches are filled and matched, in much the same way.
Pressed steel
Under the enamel of a steel bath is thin metal. Once a chip exposes it, rust follows quickly, so we treat and seal the metal before filling.
Repair or replace: which is better?
Replacing a bath rarely stops at the bath: tiles along the rim normally crack when it comes out, a new panel is often needed, and a plumber has to disconnect and reconnect everything. A repair skips all of it. Our bath repair starts from £95. The price depends on how much damage there is and what kind, what it’s made of and how many jobs we combine into one visit. You get a fixed quote from your pictures, so there are no surprises on the day.

Aftercare tips
How the surface is treated afterwards matters. Here’s what we suggest:
- Stick to mild cleaners and a soft cloth
- Store metal items away from the bath
- Get a dripping tap fixed promptly
- Rinse it down after each bath
Don’t leave razors, cans or hair grips in the bath, as they can leave rust marks. And fix dripping taps promptly.
Until we visit, a strip of waterproof tape over the damage helps, to keep water out. Remove it before the repair.
DIY repairs versus a professional job
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, and the work is guaranteed.
When we would advise against a repair
Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:
- Wear across the whole surface, which needs re-enamelling
- A bath that moves underfoot, until its support is fixed
- Metal that has corroded all the way through
Not sure? Send photos and we’ll give you a straight answer before you book.

How we price bath repair
Prices start from £95. Prices are worked out job by job, from your photos. What matters most is:
- How hard the colour is to match
- The material and finish
- How much damage there is
- Access to the area
We charge the same wherever you are, with no extra for Rhostryfan. What changes the price is the job itself: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.
Send pictures for a quote
The better the photos, the more accurate the price. Here’s what helps:
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- One picture of the entire bath
Pricing is simple: snap the damage close up and then the entire item, send them to us with your postcode, and you’ll get a fixed price back. Quotes are free and no obligation.
Landlord and trade work in Rhostryfan
Letting agents frequently send us pictures straight from the inventory. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.
We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Rhostryfan as well as homeowners. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it generally costs far less than a refit.
How the visit works
Your technician turns up when we said we would and checks the damage against your pictures first. Dust sheets and masking tape go down before we open a single tin. Most visits take a few hours, depending on the damage, and we leave the room as we found it.
- We start by looking at the damage and confirming the plan with you.
- Any rust and loose material comes out, and the area is degreased.
- We build up the filler in layers, shaping it to the bath.
- We tint the finish by hand to match the bath.
- Finally, it’s polished to match the shine and left to cure.
Getting ready for the visit
- Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
- Open a window if you can
- Let us know if it has been repaired before

You do not need a survey visit. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we’ll come back to you with a fixed figure.
