Bath repair at your home in Trefonen
Small damage on a bath is worth repairing early. Exposed metal on enamelled baths soon rusts, while cracks in acrylic grow each time the bath moves. Repairing it stops the damage getting worse. If you are dealing with an old repair that has yellowed or come loose and chips on the rim or sides, we can help.
You get a one-year guarantee, the same in Trefonen as everywhere else we work.

What your bath is made of matters
Acrylic
An acrylic bath is a moulded sheet strengthened from below. There is no rust, but cracks, holes and scratches happen, and a crack only stays repaired if it’s supported underneath.
Composite and resin
Composite baths are dense and solid, and often freestanding. Chips and scratches are filled and matched, in much the same way.
When to call us in Trefonen
Rust generally starts where water sits, by the plughole, beneath dripping taps or in an unrepaired chip. Once water reaches the steel or iron, rust spreads under the enamel.
If you can see any of these, send us a photo:
- Chips under the taps
- Rusty patches near the plughole
- A failed DIY repair that is discoloured or lifting
- A cracked acrylic bath

For landlords and businesses
We are used to working with agents and managing companies. Just send photos, the address and how to get access and we’ll arrange it.
Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.
Honest limits
A few problems are outside what a surface repair can do:
- Flexing caused by a failed cradle or loose feet
- Leaking fittings, which need a plumber
- A bath worn all over, where resurfacing makes more sense
If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think before you book.

FAQs for Trefonen
Do you work in Trefonen?
Yes, we do. Technicians travel to Trefonen from across the region, with no extra charge for travel.
Will the repair last?
Yes, if it’s prepared properly and the bath is sound. It carries our one-year guarantee.
Can you redo an old repair?
Regularly. We strip it out, deal with any rust and repair it again.
Can you quote from pictures?
In nearly every case. If photos do not show enough, we’ll ask for another angle.
Can tenants book a repair?
We can work for tenants, landlords or agents. Just ensure the landlord agrees.
Do I need to be at home?
Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time that suits you.
It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?
Generally, yes. We remove the old repair before doing a new one.
Something went through my bath. Can it be fixed?
Usually. Send us a photo of the hole and one from under the bath if you can.
The process
We turn up when we said we would and looks over the damage before anything else. The floor and nearby surfaces are covered before we open a single tin. The work itself takes two to three hours for most chips, and we leave the room as we found it.
- We start by looking at the damage and confirming the plan with you.
- Any rust and loose material comes out, and the area is degreased.
- We build up the filler in layers, shaping it to the bath.
- We tint the finish by hand to match the bath.
- Finally, it’s polished to match the shine and left to cure.
Getting ready for the visit
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
- Let us know if it has been repaired before
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access

Advice
Should I try a DIY kit first?
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, then guarantee it for a year.
For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.
How to care for the repair
To keep it looking its best for years:
- Fix dripping taps early to stop staining and limescale
- Check that an acrylic bath doesn’t move when you stand in it
- Rinse the bath after use, especially in hard water areas
- Store metal items away from the bath
Clean with mild, non-abrasive cleaners and try not to drop heavy bottles on the repair. Get any new chip seen to quickly, before rust can start.
Tape over a fresh chip or crack until it’s repaired, to keep water out. Take it off before we arrive.
How we price bath repair
Repairs from £95. We charge the same across the UK, including Trefonen. What changes the price is:
- How many areas need work
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- What the surface is made of
- Whether we combine several jobs
Compared with replacing, a repair is usually a fraction of the price, because there is no removal, plumbing or making good. The quote lists exactly what you are paying for.
How to get a fixed quote
The better the photos, the more accurate the price. Here’s what we find most useful:
- Any details about the material
- Details of any past repairs
- Something in shot to show the size
- Where you are, by postcode
Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: take one close-up and one wider shot of the bath, add your postcode and send them over. You’ll get a fixed price, not an estimate.
