Bath chip & crack repair in Roath Park, Cardiff
Bath repair across Roath Park and nearby, generally in one visit.
- Repairs from £95
- Rusty patches near the plughole
- Damage beneath the taps
Materials and what they mean for the repair
Composite and resin
Stone resin and composite baths are heavy and solid, and often freestanding. Chips and scratches are filled and matched, in much the same way.
Cast iron
Cast iron baths are thick and very strong, with a fused enamel surface. A chip down to the iron can rust, but the bath itself lasts for generations, so it’s always worth repairing.
Bath repair in Roath Park, done in place
Bath repair is our most common job. Chips on the rim, rust around the waste and cracks in acrylic are all repaired in place, usually in a single visit. If you are dealing with deep scratches in acrylic and cracks in an acrylic bath, we can usually put it right, on roll-top & freestanding, acrylic and cast iron enamel alike.
A one-year guarantee comes with the work, just as it does everywhere we cover.

What else we do in Roath Park
When to call us in Roath Park
Many chips happen while the bathroom is being fitted. Tradespeople drop tools and tiles into the bath, and the damage isn’t always spotted until later. Snagging repairs like these are a regular job for us.
Send us a photo if you notice any of these:
- Rusty patches near the plughole
- Impact holes in acrylic
- Chips caused by builders
- A chip where the taps sit
Comparing quotes
- Whether the colour is mixed to match

What affects the price in Roath Park
Repairs from £95. There is no charge for travel to Roath Park. The price comes down to:
- The colour and finish to match
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- How much damage there is
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Send photos and you will get a fixed figure.
Send pictures for a quote
You can generally get a fixed quote without us visiting. To make it quick:
- Natural light rather than flash
- Something in shot to show the size
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
We price from pictures so you do not have to wait in for a survey. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through.
Work for landlords and builders
We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Just send pictures, the address and how to get access and we will handle the rest.
We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, putting right damage done during fitting so nothing needs replacing. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.
What we can’t put right
We’ll always be straight with you, so here’s what a repair won’t do:
- Rust that has eaten right through a steel bath
- A whole bath that is dull or worn, where a full re-enamel is the better fix
- Cracks in parts of an acrylic bath we can’t get to from below
Not sure? Send photos and we will give you a straight answer before you book.
Materials we work on in Roath Park

Should I try a DIY kit first?
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is generally the cheaper route.
Looking after it afterwards
A little care keeps the finish looking good. We recommend:
- Have new chips seen to early
- Keep abrasive pads and gritty cleaners away from the bath
- Fix dripping taps early to stop staining and limescale
- Make sure an acrylic bath is firm underfoot
Treat the repaired area like the rest of the bath: warm water, washing-up liquid and a soft cloth. Keep scouring pads and gritty cleaners away from it.
Tape over a fresh chip or crack until it’s repaired, so water can’t get in. Remove it before the repair.
What we do, step by step
The work is clean and fairly quiet. We protect the area first, then the work takes a few hours. Before we leave, we explain the curing time and the aftercare.
- We clean the area and remove any loose enamel or rust.
- The chip or crack is filled, then sanded level with the bath.
- 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 generally use the bath the day after.
Before we arrive
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
