Bath repair at your home in Treharris
Whatever has happened to the bath, we aim for the same result: a smooth, solid repair that blends in. We prepare the area properly, fill and shape it, then match the colour and gloss so it sits flush with the rest of the bath. Whether it’s impact holes in acrylic and chips on the rim or sides, we can help, on pressed steel enamel, acrylic and roll-top & freestanding alike.
A one-year guarantee comes as standard, so you are covered after the visit.

DIY kit or professional repair?
If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, ensure the area is clean and completely dry, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.
A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.
Honest limits
Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:
- Rust that has eaten right through a steel bath
- A bath that moves underfoot, until its support is fixed
- Wear across the whole surface, which needs re-enamelling
Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly.
Materials we repair

Materials and what they mean for the repair
Pressed steel
Steel baths and trays have a thin metal body under the enamel. Exposed steel rusts quickly, so we treat and seal the metal before filling.
Acrylic
An acrylic bath is a moulded sheet strengthened from below. There’s no rust, but cracks, holes and scratches happen, and cracks need support from behind to stay fixed.
Landlord and trade work in Treharris
We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out photos. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.
For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover, so there’s no need to replace a damaged item at the last minute. We can visit several plots in one trip to keep costs down.
The process
Expect a friendly, tidy visit. We agree the arrival time in advance, protect the area, and get on with the job, which normally takes a few hours. If anything looks different from your photos, we will talk to you before going ahead.
- First, the area is cleaned and any loose enamel or rust is removed.
- We fill the damage and sand it flush with the surrounding surface.
- The colour is mixed on the spot to match your bath.
- Finish coats go on, then the repair is polished to blend in.
- We leave it to cure; you can usually use the bath the next day.
Preparing for the visit
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
- Point us to the nearest place to park
- Tell us about parking, stairs or access
Ask for a price
Send us pictures of the damage and one of the entire item, with your CF46 postcode, and we will come back with a fixed quote.
Related advice
Common problems we fix in Treharris
Nearly all the chips we see start with something being 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.
The things customers generally mention when they call are:
- A kit repair that didn’t last
- Cracks in an acrylic bath
- Impact holes in acrylic
- Rust spots around the plughole
Questions to ask before booking
- What happens if they find more damage
- What the guarantee covers, and for how long
- Whether a trained technician does the job
- How long it needs to cure
Should you replace it?
For damage in one or two places, a repair is the obvious choice. It costs far less than a new bath plus fitting, it’s done in one visit, and the bathroom stays exactly as it is. Prices start from £95. 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.

Keeping it looking good
Good habits make a big difference to how long a repair lasts:
- Keep metal cans and razors off the surface
- Rinse it down after each bath
- Keep abrasive pads and gritty cleaners away from the bath
- Cover the bath during DIY or decorating
Treat the repaired area like the rest of the bath: warm water, washing-up liquid and a soft cloth. Avoid scourers and gritty cream cleaners.
Avoid standing in a cracked acrylic bath until it’s fixed. Every use opens the crack a little more, and water can get through to the floor below.
Treharris: your questions answered
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
Yes, we often do. Removing the old work can add time, and that is in the quote.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
Normally, when the rest is in good condition. A repair avoids removal and making good. We’ll tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.
I tried a repair kit. Can you fix it?
Regularly. We strip it out, deal with any rust and repair it again.
What happens next?
We check the damage, the material and your postcode, then reply with a quote with dates.
When can I have a bath again?
Typically the next day. We will tell you the exact curing time when we finish.
Can you do more than one item on the same visit?
Yes. Doing several items on one visit generally costs less than separate visits. Include photos of each item.
Will the price change on the day?
If we find something the photos didn’t show, we explain it first. The price only changes if you agree.
Can you repair a chip on a coloured bath?
Yes, coloured baths are no problem. We tint the finish to your bath on site.
