About our bath repair in Trelech

A damaged bath doesn’t have to mean a new bathroom. Our technicians fill, shape and refinish the damage, with the colour mixed on site. Common call-outs are for chips on the rim or sides and holes from dropped items, on acrylic, roll-top & freestanding and pressed steel enamel.

All our work is covered by a one-year guarantee.

When to call us in Trelech

Dropped items cause the majority of chips, and building work is a common culprit. Acrylic baths crack for a different reason: poor support underneath, so the bath flexes when it’s full.

Contact us if you’ve noticed any of these:

  • A chipped rim or side
  • Damage done while the bathroom was being fitted
  • Holes from dropped items
  • Scratches you can feel with a fingernail

Our hiring checklist

What your bath is made of matters

Acrylic

Acrylic feels warm and is light, but it needs firm support underneath. Cracks are strengthened from behind before the front is finished.

Composite and resin

Composite baths are dense and solid, and often freestanding. Chips and scratches can be filled and colour-matched, just like other baths.

Repair or replace in Trelech?

For damage in one or two places, a repair is the obvious choice. It costs far less than a new bath plus fitting, it takes one visit, and the bathroom stays exactly as it is. Our bath repair starts from £95. 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.

Why book with us

  • Every repair guaranteed for a year
  • We leave the room as we found it
  • Fixed prices from your photos
  • Typically one visit, start to finish

Prices and what affects them

Prices start from £95. There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price depends on:

  • Doing more than one item at once
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear

The price depends on the type and amount of damage, the material and how many items we do on one visit. We give a fixed price from your pictures, so you know the cost before booking.

Send pictures for a quote

A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. Try to include:

  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • Something in shot to show the size
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare

Your questions about bath repair in Trelech

What happens if you find more damage?

It’s rare, but if it happens we talk to you first. The price only changes if you agree.

What happens after I send pictures?

We come back with a fixed quote, usually with dates to choose from. There is no obligation to book.

Is it safe with children and pets around?

We ask you to keep children and pets out of the room while we work. Everywhere else in the home is fine.

Do I need to be at home?

Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time we agree with you.

Can you repair a hole in a bath?

In most cases. Send us a photo of the hole and one from under the bath if you can.

Is a repair better than a new one?

In most cases, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. We will be honest if it’s not worth it.

Is there any odour?

It depends on the job, but frequently a little. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum.

Are there extra charges for Trelech?

We don’t add a call-out fee. The fixed price covers the visit and the work.

How the visit works

The work is clean and fairly quiet. We protect the area first, then the job itself takes a few hours. At the end we talk you through how soon it can be used and how to care for it.

  1. First, the area is cleaned and any loose enamel or rust is removed.
  2. We fill the damage and sand it flush with the surrounding surface.
  3. The colour is mixed on the spot to match your bath.
  4. Finish coats go on, then the repair is polished to blend in.
  5. Once it has cured, normally by the following day, the bath is ready to use.

Before we arrive

  • Make sure the room can be ventilated
  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
  • Let us know about parking or access

Ask for a price

Upload photos of the damage and a wider shot of the entire item, with your SA33 postcode, and we will come back with a fixed quote.

Aftercare tips

After the repair has cured, a few habits help it last:

  • Keep abrasive pads and gritty cleaners away from the bath
  • If an acrylic bath flexes, have its feet adjusted
  • Keep metal cans and razors off the surface
  • Cover the bath during DIY or decorating

A repaired bath needs no special treatment. Avoid bleach-based and gritty cleaners and rinse after use.

If an acrylic bath has a crack, stop showering in it until it’s repaired. Each time it flexes, the crack grows, and water can get through to the floor below.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.

A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it will not stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.

What we can’t put right

We would rather lose a job than do one that will not last, so these are the limits:

  • Leaks from the waste or overflow fittings (a plumber’s job)
  • A bath that flexes because its feet or cradle have failed (that needs fixing first)
  • Metal that has corroded all the way through

Not sure? Send pictures and we will give you a straight answer.
