Bath repair at your home in Troedrhiw-gwair
A typical bath repair is a few hours’ work, and you can generally bathe again the following day. There’s no need to book a plumber or tiler, because nothing is disconnected. Typical jobs include snagging damage from a refit and holes from dropped items, in whirlpool & spa baths, pressed steel enamel and roll-top & freestanding.
The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If there’s a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it.

Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £95. Every quote is fixed and free. What we look at:
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- The type of damage
- How hard the colour is to match
- How many items we do on one visit
A repair is priced on what needs doing, not your postcode. You will see the full price before booking, with no extras added later.
Getting a price from pictures
Most quotes are done from pictures alone. To help us price it:
- What it’s made of, if you know
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
To get a price, send a couple of pictures using our quote form or ring us. We will tell you honestly whether it can be repaired.
Honest limits
In fairness, some problems need a different fix:
- A bath that flexes because its feet or cradle have failed (that needs fixing first)
- Metal that has corroded all the way through
- A whole bath that is dull or worn, where a full re-enamel is the better fix
Send us photos and we will tell you honestly before you book.
Materials we repair
- Pressed steel enamel
- Cast iron enamel
- Roll-top & freestanding
- Acrylic
- Whirlpool & spa baths
Different materials, different repairs
Cast iron
Cast iron baths are so heavy that repairing in place makes obvious sense. Only the enamel surface wears or chips, and that’s what we repair.
Composite and resin
Composite baths are dense and solid. Chips and scratches can be filled and colour matched, in much the same way.
Signs you need bath repair in Troedrhiw-gwair
Heavy toiletries are the biggest single cause of chips, closely followed by shower heads. Fittings cause damage too: water sits around them, and any chip there soon rusts.
These are the problems we are asked about most:
- Chips under the taps
- Rusty patches near the plughole
- A cracked acrylic bath
- A hole punched through by something heavy
Questions to ask before booking
- What protection goes down before work starts
- Whether the colour is mixed to match
- When it can be used again
- What happens if they find more damage

- Any rust and loose material comes out, and the area is degreased.
- 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.

Related advice
Looking after it afterwards
It’s all simple stuff, just a few sensible habits:
- A dripping tap stains enamel, so fix it early
- Put a towel in the bath if you’re working above it
- Store metal items away from the bath
- Check that an acrylic bath doesn’t move when you stand in it
Care for the repair the same way as the bath: a soft cloth and washing-up liquid is all it needs. Keep scouring pads and gritty cleaners away from it.
Tape over a fresh chip or crack until it’s repaired, to keep water out. Remove it before the repair.
Why repair rather than replace?
Replacing a bath rarely stops at the bath: the tiles sitting on the rim tend to break, the panel may not fit the new one, and the plumbing has to be disconnected and refitted. Repairing the damage avoids all of that. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. Damage, material and access decide it, and doing several items at once reduces it.

Troedrhiw-gwair questions
Can you repair several things at once?
Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Include photos of each item.
Is my repair covered?
Yes: twelve months. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.
Can you quote from pictures?
Yes, almost always. Clear photos let us give you a fixed quote without visiting.
Something went through my bath. Can it be fixed?
Normally. Send us a picture of the hole and one from under the bath if you can.
When can you do it?
Your quote comes with available dates. Tell us if you need it done quickly.
It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?
Yes, we frequently do. Removing the old work can add time, and that’s in the quote.
What information do you need?
Some photos, your postcode and how to reach you. On the day, we only need access to the room.
What does bath repair cost?
Prices start from £95. Every job gets a fixed quote from your pictures. Send a close-up and a picture of the entire item with your NP22 postcode.
DIY kit or professional repair?
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.
For a hairline mark somewhere you will never see, a kit may be enough. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, a professional repair is worth it.
