About our bath repair in Tŷ Glyn
We repair enamelled steel, cast iron and acrylic baths. The method changes with the material: metal baths need any rust dealt with first, and acrylic cracks need support from behind. We regularly repair acrylic, cast iron enamel and pressed steel enamel, and common reasons people get in touch are holes from dropped items and chips caused by builders.
All of our repairs are guaranteed for twelve months. We return to put right any problem with the work.

You may need us if you’ve spotted any of these:
- Damage beneath the taps
- Damage done while the bathroom was being fitted
- A hole punched through by something heavy
- An old repair that has yellowed or come loose

Questions from Tŷ Glyn
Will the repair show?
On a glossy bath, you will struggle to find it. On worn enamel, it can look shinier than the rest.
Can you quote from photos?
Yes, almost always. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed price.
Can you repair a chip on a coloured bath?
Yes, we match coloured baths too. The colour is tinted by hand on the day.
Is a repair better than a new one?
Normally, if the item is otherwise sound. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. If replacing would be better, we’ll say so.
Is the work guaranteed?
All our work carries our one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.
What happens if you find more damage?
If we find something the pictures didn’t show, we explain it first. You decide whether to go ahead.
Is there a call-out fee?
We don’t add a call-out fee. Your fixed price includes everything.
I tried a repair kit. Can you fix it?
Regularly. We strip it out, deal with any rust and repair it again.
Should you replace it?
Cast iron baths especially are worth keeping: getting one out, particularly from an upstairs bathroom, is a big job, and replacing like for like isn’t cheap. A repair keeps it in place. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Photos let us give you the exact figure.
Why book with us
- No need to remove anything
- Same prices wherever you are
- A year’s guarantee on all work
- Most jobs done in one visit

Keeping it looking good
So the finish stays in good condition for years:
- Have new chips seen to early
- Keep metal cans and razors off the surface
- Use a soft cloth and washing-up liquid for everyday cleaning
- If an acrylic bath flexes, have its feet adjusted
In the first few days, avoid putting weight or bottles on the repair. After that, normal gentle cleaning is fine.
Rust spreads under enamel faster than most people expect. Left for months, a small chip can grow into a large rust patch, so early repair keeps the cost down.

What we can’t put right
We will not take on work that will not last, so these are the limits:
- A whole bath that is dull or worn, where a full re-enamel is the better fix
- Cracks in acrylic we cannot reach from underneath
- A steel bath rusted through
Send us photos and we will tell you honestly.

The process
We begin by going over the job with you. After that, protection goes down around the work area and we start. Allow a few hours, depending on the damage, and we will tell you if anything changes.
- We protect the bath and the floor around it.
- We clean, key and degrease the damage, and any rust is treated.
- We fill it, let it set, then sand it flush.
- We match both the colour and the shine.
- We tidy up and tell you when the bath can be used, typically the day after.
How to prepare
- Keep a parking space free if you can
- Have a window or extractor fan available
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children

What your bath is made of matters
Acrylic
An acrylic bath is a moulded sheet strengthened from below. They do not rust, but they can crack, scratch or be holed, and a crack only stays repaired if it’s supported underneath.
Composite and resin
Stone resin and composite baths are heavy and solid. Chips and scratches can be filled and colour matched, just like other baths.
