Aftercare tips

So the finish stays in good condition for years:

  • A dripping tap stains enamel, so fix it early
  • Rinse the bath after use, especially in hard water areas
  • Keep metal cans and razors off the surface
  • Get any new chip repaired before it rusts

Keep metal objects like razors and cans off the surface, because they can mark the enamel. A dripping tap should be fixed early, too.

A chip on a metal bath shouldn’t be left. Once water reaches the metal, rust begins, turning a quick repair into a bigger one.

How we handle bath repair in Twynmynydd

Repairing baths is what we do most. A chip by the taps, a crack in the base and a rust spot by the plughole are all repaired in place, normally in a single visit. We work on cast iron enamel, acrylic and pressed steel enamel, and people most frequently call us about a hole punched through by something heavy and snagging damage from a refit.

Whatever the size of the job, you get the same one-year guarantee.

Twynmynydd: your questions answered

What happens next?

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

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.

Will the price change on the day?

The price is fixed for what the photos show. Anything extra is discussed before we begin.

Do you hold any accreditations?

We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.

Is there a guarantee?

Yes: twelve months. If there’s a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.

Is there a call-out fee?

No. Our quotes include travel, and we charge the same wherever you are.

Do you work for landlords and businesses?

Yes, frequently. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.

What about rust by the waste?

Yes, very often. We take it back to sound metal, seal it, fill it and match the colour.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Twynmynydd

Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets need rooms back in use quickly, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We can work around your bookings.

For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover, saving last-minute replacements. We can visit several plots in one trip to keep costs down.

How it works

The work is clean and fairly quiet. We protect the area first, then the work takes two to three hours for most chips. At the end we talk you through the curing time and the aftercare.

  1. We start by looking at the damage and confirming the plan with you.
  2. Loose enamel, rust and dirt are removed so the repair can bond.
  3. We build up the filler in layers, shaping it to the bath.
  4. We tint the finish by hand to match the bath.
  5. Finally, it’s polished to match the shine and left to cure.

Before we arrive

  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing

Advice

Honest limits

It helps to know what we cannot do too:

  • Leaks from the waste or overflow fittings (a plumber’s job)
  • A whole bath that’s dull or worn, where a full re-enamel is the better fix
  • Flexing caused by a failed cradle or loose feet

Not sure? Send pictures and we’ll give you a straight answer before booking.

How we price bath repair

Prices start from £95. Each job gets its own fixed quote. This is what makes a difference:

  • Doing more than one item at once
  • The type of damage
  • How hard the colour is to match
  • The size and number of damaged areas

A repair is priced on what needs doing, not your postcode. You’ll see the full price before you book, with no extras added later.

Send pictures for a quote

Good photos mean an accurate price. Here’s what we find most useful:

  • Natural light rather than flash
  • Any details about the material
  • Something in shot to show the size
  • One sharp close-up of the damage

If you are in Twynmynydd and want a price, pictures are the quickest way: one close up, one from further back, plus your postcode. You will get a fixed quote with dates to choose from.

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 we treat and seal the metal before filling.

Cast iron

A cast iron bath is heavy enough that most people never want to move it. The enamel is the part that wears or chips, and that’s the part we put right.

Can I fix it myself?

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is usually cheaper.

What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.

Should you replace it?

Replacing a fitted bath normally involves a plumber, removing the old bath, making good the tiles and panel and getting rid of the old bath. A repair deals only with the damage in a single visit. Our bath repair starts from £95. Set against the cost of replacement, repairing normally costs far less, because there’s no removal, plumbing or making good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.
