How we handle bath repair in Trellech
We repair just the damaged spot and colour-match it to the bath, which is far cheaper than replacing a fitted bath. You can normally use the bath the day after. Our technicians work on whirlpool & spa baths, cast iron enamel and acrylic, and common reasons people get in touch are a chipped rim or side and hairline or through cracks in acrylic.
You’re covered for a year from the day of the repair. Just call us if there’s a problem and we will sort it.

What happens on the day
Visits start with a quick look at the job together, so there are no surprises. After that, protection goes down around the work area and we start. It normally takes a few hours, depending on the damage.
- We start by cleaning the damage and taking out loose enamel and rust.
- The chip or crack is filled, then sanded level with the bath.
- We mix the colour on the day to match your bath’s exact shade.
- We build up the finish and polish it into the surrounding enamel.
- Once it has cured, normally by the day after, the bath is ready to use.
How to prepare
- Let us know about parking or access
- Open a window if you can
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children

What else we do in Trellech
Landlord and trade work in Trellech
We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams in Monmouthshire and across the UK. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which matters when someone is living in the home.
Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets can’t afford rooms out of action for long, so we keep visits short and tidy. We can work around your bookings.
Questions from Trellech
Do you cover the whole of Monmouthshire?
Everywhere in the UK, Trellech included. Travel is included in the price.
Can you repair several things at once?
Yes. Doing several items on one visit usually costs less than separate visits. Send photos of everything you’d like done.
When can I have a bath again?
Generally the next day. We’ll tell you the exact curing time when we finish.
Can you repair a crack in an acrylic bath?
Most of the time. The back of the crack is strengthened before the front is filled and refinished, so access behind the panel is important.
Is my repair covered?
Every repair comes with a one-year guarantee. We will explain what it covers when we quote.
Do you repair coloured baths?
Yes, we match coloured baths too. The colour is tinted by hand on the day.
Can I get a quote without a visit?
In nearly every case. We only ask to see it in person if the pictures can’t show what we need.
Do I need to be at home?
Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. After that, you can carry on with your day.
When we’d advise against a repair
Some jobs are not right for a repair, for example:
- Flexing caused by a failed cradle or loose feet
- Water coming from the waste or taps rather than the bath
- Metal that has corroded all the way through
Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly.

How we price bath repair
Prices start from £95. There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price is based on:
- What the surface is made of
- The type of damage
- The colour and finish to match
- Whether we combine several jobs
Rather than charging by the hour, we price the entire job up front. Damage, material and access decide it, and combining items on one visit brings it down.
How to get a fixed quote
Good pictures mean an accurate price. Here’s what we find most useful:
- Where you are, by postcode
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- A photo taken from further back
Call 0345 017 0787 or use the quote form. With one close-up and one wider picture, we can price the job.
Keeping it looking good
A little care keeps the finish looking good. Our advice:
- Don’t leave razors or cans standing in the bath
- Use a soft cloth and washing-up liquid for everyday cleaning
- Keep abrasive pads and gritty cleaners away from the bath
- Put a towel in the bath if you’re working above it
Leave the repair to cure for as long as we say before running a bath. After that, gentle cleaning keeps it looking good.
Avoid standing in a cracked acrylic bath until it’s fixed. Each time it flexes, the crack grows, and water can get through to the floor below.
Materials and what they mean for the repair
Pressed steel
Steel baths and trays have a thin metal body under the enamel. Once a chip exposes it, rust follows quickly, so the metal is treated and sealed before the repair.
Cast iron
Cast iron is heavy and rigid, finished with fired enamel. A chip down to the iron can rust, but the bath itself lasts for generations, so it’s always worth repairing.

Why repair rather than replace?
Think about the hidden costs of a new bath: removal and disposal, plumbing, a new panel, tiling and decorating. A repair is one job, done in one visit. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. What it costs depends on how much damage there is and what kind, what it’s made of and how many items we do on one visit. We give a fixed quote from your photos, so you know the cost before booking.

DIY kit or professional repair?
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 is not a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it won’t stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.
