Bath repair in Trethomas without replacing anything
Repairing baths is what we do most. Chips on the rim, rust around the waste and cracks in acrylic are all fixed without removing the bath, typically in a single visit. If you’re dealing with rust by the waste and overflow and a hole punched through by something heavy, we can usually put it right, on pressed steel enamel, whirlpool & spa baths and cast iron enamel alike.
Every repair comes with our one-year guarantee, wherever you are in Caerphilly.

What a repair cannot fix
We won’t take on work that won’t last, so these are the limits:
- Cracks in parts of an acrylic bath we can’t get to from below
- Leaking fittings, which need a plumber
- Rust that has eaten right through a steel bath

Repairs by material
Acrylic
Acrylic baths are moulded sheet reinforced underneath. There’s no rust, but cracks, holes and scratches happen, and cracks need support from behind to stay fixed.
Composite and resin
Stone resin and composite baths are heavy and solid. Chips and scratches are filled and matched, just like other baths.
Landlords, agents and businesses in Trethomas
We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Just send pictures, the address and how to get access and we will handle the rest.
Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which matters when someone is living in the home.
DIY repairs versus a professional job
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, and the work is guaranteed.
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.
Should you replace it?
If the rest of the bath is in good condition, a repair is almost always the better choice. It’s quicker, cheaper and far less disruptive, and the bathroom stays as it is. If the whole surface is worn, re-enamelling may make more sense, and we will tell you. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. 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.

When to call us in Trethomas
Nearly all the chips we see start with something being dropped: bottles, shower heads, tiles and tools. On enamelled baths, a chip that reaches the metal lets water in, and rust follows.
Keep an eye out for these signs:
- Impact holes in acrylic
- An old repair that has yellowed or come loose
- Rust by the waste and overflow
- Snagging damage from a refit
What to look for in a quote

What we do, step by step
When we visit, we arrive at the time we have agreed, cover the area with dust sheets and masking, and set to work. Expect it to take a few hours. We clean up when we are done and let you know when you can use it again.
- First, we check the damage against your photos and agree the plan.
- Loose enamel, rust and dirt are removed so the repair can bond.
- The damage is filled in layers and shaped to the curve of the bath.
- We tint the finish by hand to match the bath.
- Finally, it’s polished to match the shine and left to cure.
Before we arrive
- Let the surface dry out before the visit
- Have a window or extractor fan available
- Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing

Your questions about bath repair in Trethomas
Do you hold any accreditations?
Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.
Can you match an avocado or pink bath?
Yes. We mix the colour on the day to match, including older coloured suites.
Will the repair last?
It should, as long as the bath is firm and the area was prepared well. It’s covered by our one-year guarantee.
What does bath repair cost?
Repairs from £95. Every job gets a fixed price based on pictures of the damage. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo with your CF83 postcode.
What if the damage is worse than the photos show?
Your quote covers the damage in the pictures. If there is more, we will tell you before starting.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Yes. Doing several items on one visit generally costs less than separate visits. Send pictures of everything you’d like done.
How long does the repair take to cure?
Most baths can be used the next day. We’ll tell you the exact curing time when we finish.
Will it make a mess?
Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and tidy up before we leave.
What bath repair costs
Repairs from £95. We give every job a fixed price from pictures. These are the things that affect it:
- How many items we do on one visit
- How easy the damage is to reach
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- The material
Rather than charging by the hour, we price the entire job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and doing several items at once reduces it.
How to get a fixed price
Phone pictures are fine, there’s no need for anything special. Just make sure we can see:
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- A picture taken from further back
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
For most jobs, pictures are all we need to give you a price. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we will send back a fixed quote and some dates.
