Bath repair at your home in Trefechan
A damaged bath does not have to mean a new bathroom. We fill the damage, shape it to the curve of the bath and refinish it, with the colour mixed on site so the repair is hard to spot. Our repair technicians work on roll-top & freestanding, acrylic and whirlpool & spa baths, and people most frequently call us about a kit repair that didn’t last and a cracked acrylic bath.
We guarantee the work for a year. If there’s a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it.

- Scuffs and scratches in the surface

Trefechan questions
Do I have to be there?
We need someone to let us in. After that, you can carry on with your day.
Do you cover Trefechan?
Yes, we do. We send a technician to Trefechan for every job, and the price is the same as everywhere else.
What information do you need?
Photos of the damage, a picture of the entire bath and your postcode. Then we’ll agree a date.
Can you repair a hole in a bath?
Frequently, if there is access underneath. The hole is backed, filled and refinished to match.
Can you do more than one item on the same visit?
Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Send pictures of everything you’d like done.
When can I have a bath again?
Usually the following day. We will tell you the exact curing time when we finish.
When can you do it?
We will give you dates with your quote. If it’s urgent, say so and we’ll do what we can.
How much does bath repair cost in Trefechan?
Prices start from £95. Because every job differs, we price from pictures. You will get a fixed figure before you book.
For landlords and businesses
Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover. Several plots can be done in one visit to keep costs down.
We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Trefechan as well as homeowners. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it usually costs far less than a refit.
What affects the price in Trefechan
Prices start from £95. We charge the same across the UK, including Trefechan. The price reflects:
- How much damage there is
- The material and finish
- How hard the colour is to match
- The type of damage
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 pictures and you’ll get a fixed figure.
Getting a price from photos
Most quotes are done from photos alone. To make it quick:
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- The material, if you know it
- One picture of the entire bath
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
For a price in Trefechan, the easiest route is photos: a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode. You’ll get a fixed quote with dates to choose from.
Honest limits
We will always be straight with you, so here’s what a repair won’t do:
- Cracks in acrylic we can’t reach from underneath
- A steel bath rusted through
- A bath that moves underfoot, until its support is fixed
Not sure? Send pictures and we’ll give you a straight answer before you book.
What we work on
- Cast iron enamel
- Acrylic
- Roll-top & freestanding
- Whirlpool & spa baths
- Pressed steel enamel
What your bath is made of matters
Cast iron
Cast iron baths are so heavy that repairing in place makes obvious sense. Only the enamel surface wears or chips, and that is the part we put right.
Composite and resin
Stone resin and composite baths are heavy and solid. Chips and scratches are filled and matched, just like other baths.
Repair or replace in Trefechan?
People frequently assume a cracked or chipped bath has to come out. Normally it doesn’t: a repair keeps the bath in service for years, without the cost and upheaval of replacing it. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Instead of hourly rates, we price the whole job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and combining items on one visit brings it down.
Why book with us
- No need to remove anything
- No extra charge for your area
- Colours mixed by hand to suit your surface
- CHAS and Constructionline accredited

How it works
When we visit, we arrive at the time we’ve agreed, cover the area with dust sheets and masking, and set to work. Expect it to take a few hours, depending on the damage. We clean up when we are done and tell you when it’s ready to use.
- First, we check the damage against your photos and agree the plan.
- Loose enamel, rust and dirt are removed so the repair can bond.
- We build up the filler in layers, shaping it to the bath.
- The colour is tinted by hand until it matches.
- Finally, it’s polished to match the shine and left to cure.
Preparing for the visit
- Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
- Make sure the room can be ventilated
- Clear the area around the damage
How to get a price
No survey visit is needed: we price from photos. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through, and you’ll get a fixed figure back.

What else we do in Trefechan
Keeping it looking good
So the finish stays in good condition:
- Clean with warm water and a mild detergent
- Put a towel in the bath if you’re working above it
- Do not leave a fresh chip for long
- Give the bath a quick rinse after use
Give the repair the full curing time we recommend before running a bath. After that, gentle cleaning keeps it looking good.
Until we visit, a strip of waterproof tape over the damage helps, to keep water out. Remove it before the repair.
