Bath chip & crack repair in Rhydyfelin, Rhondda Cynon Taff

- Repairs from £95
- A chipped rim or side
- Damage beneath the taps
How we price bath repair
Repairs from £95. There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price depends on:
- The material and finish
- Whether we combine several jobs
- Unusual colours or finishes
- The size and number of damaged areas
No two jobs are quite the same, so we price each one individually. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all play a part, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.
How to get a fixed price
Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what we need:
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- What it’s made of, if you know
- A wider photo showing the whole bath
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
No survey visit is needed: we price from pictures. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through, and you will get a fixed figure back.
Bath repair in Rhydyfelin, done in place
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. You can generally use the bath the day after. If you are dealing with a failed DIY repair that’s discoloured or lifting and damage done while the bathroom was being fitted, we can help, on cast iron enamel, pressed steel enamel and whirlpool & spa baths alike.
All of our repairs are guaranteed for twelve months. If something goes wrong with the work, we come back.

Rhydyfelin questions
Do you cover Rhydyfelin?
We do. We send a technician to Rhydyfelin for every job, with no extra charge for travel.
How much does bath repair cost in Rhydyfelin?
Prices start from £95. Every job gets a fixed quote based on photos of the damage. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo with your CF37 postcode.
Will the price change on the day?
We stop, show you and agree any change before carrying on. You will not be charged for anything you haven’t agreed.
Something went through my bath. Can it be fixed?
Normally. Photos of the hole and the underside help us check.
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
We can work for tenants, landlords or agents. Just ensure the landlord agrees.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
In most cases, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. If it isn’t worth repairing, we’ll tell you.
Do you repair coloured baths?
Yes, coloured baths are no problem. We tint the finish to your bath on site.
What happens once I’ve sent photos?
You get a fixed price and available dates. If we need another angle, we’ll ask.
For landlords and businesses
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 regularly work with letting and managing agents. Send the address, pictures and access details and we will handle the rest.
How it works
Arrival times are agreed in advance, so you’re not left guessing. On site, it takes a few hours, depending on the damage. We leave the room clean and ready to use once it has cured.
- We protect the bath and the floor around it.
- The damaged area is cleaned, keyed and degreased.
- 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.
Getting ready for the visit
- Clear the area around the damage
- Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
- Point us to the nearest place to park
How to get a price
Pricing is simple: take a close-up of the damage and a photo from further back, send them to us with your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price. There’s no charge for the quote and you’re under no obligation.

Can I fix it myself?
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, and give it the full curing time. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.
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.
Materials and what they mean for the repair
Pressed steel
Under the enamel of a steel bath is thin metal. Exposed steel rusts quickly, so we treat and seal the metal before filling.
Composite and resin
Stone resin and composite baths are heavy and solid, and often freestanding. Chips and scratches are filled and matched, just like other baths.

Looking after it afterwards
Nothing complicated is needed, just a few sensible habits:
- Keep metal cans and razors off the surface
- Get any new chip repaired before it rusts
- Put a towel in the bath if you’re working above it
- Rinse the bath after use, especially in hard water areas
A repaired bath needs no special treatment, just sensible cleaning. Avoid bleach-based and gritty cleaners and give it a rinse after each bath.
Rust under enamel spreads surprisingly quickly. A chip the size of a fingernail can become a much larger patch if it’s left for months, so it pays to deal with it early.
What a repair can’t fix
A repair is not always the answer, and we will tell you before we start. We cannot fix:
- A steel bath rusted through
- Wear across the whole surface, which needs re-enamelling
- A bath that moves underfoot, until its support is fixed
Not sure? Send photos and we’ll give you a straight answer.
