How to care for the repair

Simple care helps the repair last. Our advice:

  • Rinse the bath after use, especially in hard water areas
  • Keep metal cans and razors off the surface
  • Clean with warm water and a mild detergent
  • Get a dripping tap fixed promptly

Use gentle, non-abrasive cleaners and try not to drop heavy bottles on the repair. Deal with new chips early, before rust can start.

Rust spreads under enamel faster than most people expect. A chip the size of a fingernail can become a much larger patch if it’s left for months, so early repair keeps the cost down.

How we handle bath repair in Tanyfron

Most of our bath repairs take a few hours, and you can normally bathe again the next day. You won’t need a plumber or tiler, because nothing is disconnected. Typical jobs include impact holes in acrylic and chips on the rim or sides, across cast iron enamel, whirlpool & spa baths and acrylic.

A one-year guarantee comes with the work, just as it does everywhere we cover.

Tanyfron: your questions answered

Can tenants book a repair?

Yes, but check with your landlord or agent first. Landlords are frequently glad to have it sorted.

Do you cover Tanyfron?

Yes. We cover the entire UK and come to Tanyfron and the rest of Wrexham. Send us photos for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

Do I need to be at home?

We need someone to let us in. You do not need to watch us work.

What if the damage is worse than the pictures show?

We’ll show you and explain before doing anything extra. You will not be charged for anything you haven’t agreed.

Do you cover the entire of Wrexham?

We cover the entire UK, including Tanyfron and the rest of Wrexham. Send your postcode with your photos and we will offer you dates.

Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?

Typically, when the rest is in good condition. A repair avoids removal and making good. If replacing would be better, we will say so.

Can you repair something that is been repaired before?

Most of the time. Let us know what was used before.

Are you a vetted contractor?

We are accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.

Repair or replace in Tanyfron?

When the bath is otherwise sound, repairing beats replacing. It costs less, takes less time and causes far less upheaval, and you keep the bath you chose. If the entire surface is worn, re-enamelling may make more sense, and we will tell you. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. A repair typically costs much less than people expect, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

What your bath is made of matters

Pressed steel

Steel baths are lighter than cast iron, but have a similar enamel surface. Chips rust quickly on steel, especially around the waste, so repair chips early.

Acrylic

An acrylic bath is a moulded sheet strengthened from below. They don’t rust, but they can crack, scratch or be holed, and cracks need support from behind to stay fixed.

DIY kit or professional repair?

A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.

A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.

Signs you need bath repair in Tanyfron

Most bath damage comes from something dropped: a shampoo bottle, a shower head, a tile or a tool during a refit. On steel and cast iron baths, a chip that reaches the metal lets water in, and rust follows.

It’s worth getting a quote if you see:

  • Holes from dropped items
  • A cracked acrylic bath
  • Deep scratches in acrylic
  • Chips along the edge of the bath

Before you book anyone

  • How soon you can use it again
  • What aftercare is recommended
  • Who turns up on the day
  • What happens if they find more damage

Our hiring checklist

Landlord and trade work in Tanyfron

Rental properties take more wear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.

We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Send the address, pictures and access details and we will arrange it.

How the visit works

Your technician turns up when we said we would and checks the damage against your photos first. Dust sheets and masking tape go down before any work starts. Most visits take a morning or an afternoon, and we leave the room as we found it.

  1. We start by looking at the damage and confirming the plan with you.
  2. Loose enamel, rust and dirt are removed so the repair can bond.
  3. We build up the filler in layers, shaping it to the bath.
  4. The colour is tinted by hand until it matches.
  5. The repair is polished to the same gloss as the bath and left to cure.

How to prepare

  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
  • Let us know about parking or access

How to get a price
