When we’d advise against a repair
A repair isn’t always the answer, and we would rather say so up front. Repairs won’t solve:
- Acrylic cracks with no access behind them
- A bath worn all over, where resurfacing makes more sense
- A bath that moves underfoot, until its support is fixed

About our bath repair in Swansea
Most bath damage, from chips and cracks to rust spots and holes, can be repaired with the bath left exactly where it is. There’s no plumbing to disconnect, the tiles are not touched, and the finish is matched to the rest of the bath. We work on acrylic, cast iron enamel and roll-top & freestanding, and the jobs we see most are a kit repair that didn’t last and rust spots around the plughole.
You are covered for a year from the day of the repair. Just call us if there is a problem and we will come back.
DIY repairs versus a professional job
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is generally the cheaper route.
Common questions in Swansea
Can a cracked acrylic bath be fixed?
Most of the time. The back of the crack is strengthened before the front is filled and refinished, so access behind the panel is important.
Is there a call-out fee?
There’s no separate call-out charge. Your fixed quote includes everything.
Which areas do you work in?
Across the UK, and that includes Swansea. Prices don’t change with location.
How much does bath repair cost in Swansea?
Prices start from £95. Because every job differs, we price from photos. You know the full cost before anything is booked.
Will the price change on the day?
If we find something the pictures didn’t show, we explain it first. The price only changes if you agree.
When can I have a bath again?
Typically the day after. We will tell you the exact curing time when we finish.
What happens after I send pictures?
We check the damage, the material and your postcode, then reply with a quote.
Do I need to be at home?
Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time we agree with you.
How it works
Your technician turns up when we said we would, introduces themselves and checks the damage against your pictures first. The floor and nearby surfaces are covered before we open a single tin. Most visits take a few hours, depending on the damage, and the room is left clean and tidy.
- Dust sheets and masking go down around the bath.
- The damaged area is cleaned, keyed and degreased, and any rust is treated.
- Filler goes in and is sanded flush once it has set.
- We match both the colour and the shine.
- We clear up and give you the curing time, normally until the next day.
Preparing for the visit
- Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
- Have a window or extractor fan available
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
Getting a price
The quickest way to a price is to send a couple of photos using our quote form or call us. We will tell you honestly if a repair is the right fix.
Related advice
Different materials, different repairs
Cast iron
A cast iron bath is heavy enough that most people never want to move it. The enamel is the part that wears or chips, and that’s the part we put right.
Composite and resin
Composite baths are dense and solid, and often freestanding. Chips and scratches can be filled and colour-matched, in much the same way.

When to call us in Swansea
Baths take more knocks than people expect: everyday items get dropped into it all the time, and fittings press hard against the enamel. Over time, chips and rust spots are almost inevitable.
If you can see any of these, send us a picture:
- Scuffs and scratches in the surface
- Rust by the waste and overflow
- Impact holes in acrylic
- A chipped rim or side
What your quote should include
- How long it needs to cure
- How your room will be protected
- If travel is included in the price
- What prep work is covered
Work for landlords and builders
We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Just send photos, the address and how to get access.
Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which is easier on the people living there.
Repairing versus replacing in Swansea
A new bath costs more than the bath itself: removal and disposal, plumbing, a new panel, tiling and decorating. With a repair, it’s one visit and one price. Our bath repair starts from £95. Our prices are the same across the UK, so there is no premium for Swansea. What changes the price is the job itself: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.
Why book with us
- Colours mixed by hand to suit your surface
- A fixed quote before you book
- We leave the room as we found it
- No extra charge for your area

What affects the price in Swansea
Prices start from £95. There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price depends on:
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- How much damage there is
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
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.
How to get a fixed quote
Photographing the damage takes a minute. Please include:
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- Something in shot to show the size
- The material, if you know it
A quote takes minutes to ask for: photograph the damage, then the entire bath, include your postcode and send them to us. You’ll get a fixed price, not an estimate.
