Why repair rather than replace?
Cast iron baths especially are worth keeping: they’re very heavy to remove, especially upstairs, and a like-for-like replacement can be expensive. Repairing it leaves it where it is. Prices start from £95. Compared with replacing, repairing usually costs far less, because there’s no removal, plumbing or making good. The quote lists exactly what you’re paying for.

About our bath repair in St Levan
It pays to repair bath damage while it’s small. On steel and cast iron, exposed metal starts to rust, and on acrylic, a crack keeps spreading while the bath flexes. A repair stops both. Whether it’s rust spots around the plughole and deep scratches in acrylic, we can usually put it right.
You get a one-year guarantee, the same in St Levan as everywhere else we work.

Advice
St Levan: your questions answered
Is a cracked acrylic bath repairable?
Most of the time. We reinforce the crack from behind, then fill and refinish the front, so we need access under the bath.
Can rust on a bath be repaired?
Yes, it’s one of the most common repairs we do. We take it back to sound metal, seal it, fill it and match the colour.
Is it messy?
Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and we clean up when we’ve finished.
How do I book?
Photos of the damage, a picture of the entire bath and your postcode. After that, we just agree a date.
Can you redo an old repair?
Regularly. We strip it out, deal with any rust and repair it again.
Is repairing better than replacing?
Generally, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. We’ll be honest if it’s not worth it.
Do you cover St Levan?
We do. Repair technicians travel to St Levan from across the region, and the price is the same as everywhere else.
How do I get a price for bath repair in St Levan?
Repairs 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 TR19 postcode.
Should I try a DIY kit first?
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 usually cheaper.
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.
What we are called out for in St Levan
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.
Send us a picture if you notice any of these:
- Chips caused by builders
- Rusty patches near the plughole
- Deep scratches in acrylic
- Chips under the taps

Keeping it looking good
A little care keeps the finish looking good. Our advice:
- Keep abrasive pads and gritty cleaners away from the bath
- If an acrylic bath flexes, have its feet adjusted
- Use a soft cloth and washing-up liquid for everyday cleaning
- Rinse it down after each bath
Use gentle, non-abrasive cleaners and avoid dropping heavy items on the repaired area. Get any new chip seen to quickly, before rust sets in.
Avoid standing in a cracked acrylic bath until it’s fixed. Every use opens the crack a little more, and water can get through to the floor below.
When we’d advise against a repair
Some jobs aren’t right for a repair, for example:
- Water coming from the waste or taps rather than the bath
- Cracks in acrylic we can’t reach from underneath
- Flexing caused by a failed cradle or loose feet
