About our bath repair in Taigwynion

Whatever the damage, the aim is the same: a smooth, solid repair that blends in. Proper preparation, careful filling and shaping, then colour and gloss matching so it’s level with the surrounding surface. We are frequently asked to fix chips along the edge of the bath and rust by the waste and overflow, across pressed steel enamel, cast iron enamel and whirlpool & spa baths.

Big or small, it’s backed by a one-year guarantee.

What we do, step by step

From the moment we arrive, the aim is to do the job without disturbing the rest of your home. Surfaces nearby are masked off, the job takes a few hours, depending on the damage, and we finish by cleaning up and talking you through the result.

  1. We start by cleaning the damage and taking out loose enamel and rust.
  2. Next we fill the damage and sand it smooth and level.
  3. The colour is mixed on the spot to match your bath.
  4. We build up the finish and polish it into the surrounding enamel.
  5. We leave it to cure; you can generally use the bath the following day.

Before we arrive

  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
  • Make sure the room can be ventilated
  • Clear the area around the damage

FAQs for Taigwynion

Do you repair coloured baths?

Yes, we match coloured baths too. The colour is tinted by hand on the day.

Will it make a mess?

Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and we clean up when we have finished.

Is the work guaranteed?

Every repair comes with our one-year guarantee. We will explain what it covers when we quote.

Can you repair something that is been repaired before?

Yes, we often do. Removing the old work can add time, and that’s in the quote.

Can pets and children be at home?

On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children.

What if the damage is worse than the pictures show?

It’s rare, but if it happens we talk to you first. You decide whether to go ahead.

Can tenants book a repair?

We are happy to deal with the tenant, landlord or agent. Just make sure the landlord agrees.

Do you cover Taigwynion?

Yes, we do. We send a technician to Taigwynion for every job, with no extra charge for travel.

Should you replace it?

A repair makes sense whenever the damage is localised. It costs far less than a new bath plus fitting, it takes one visit, and nothing else in the room changes. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. No two jobs are quite the same, so we price each one individually. The size and type of damage, the material and access all make a difference, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

How to look after the repair

Looking after the surface is easy:

  • Give the bath a quick rinse after use
  • Fix dripping taps early to stop staining and limescale
  • Don’t leave razors or cans standing in the bath
  • Don’t leave a fresh chip for long

Keep metal objects like razors and cans off the surface, because they can mark the enamel. And fix dripping taps promptly.

A chip on a metal bath shouldn’t be left. Water gets to the metal and rust starts, and a rust spot is a bigger repair than a clean chip.

Work for landlords and builders

We are used to working with agents and managing companies. Send the address, photos and access details and we’ll handle the rest.

We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, fixing chips and scratches before handover so nothing needs replacing. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Acrylic

Acrylic is light and warm to the touch, but it needs firm support underneath. Repairs to cracks are reinforced from the back.

Composite and resin

Composite baths are dense and solid, and frequently freestanding. Chips and scratches are filled and matched, in much the same way.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair will not last.

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is usually cheaper.
