Bath repair in Wenallt, done in place
Small damage on a bath is worth repairing early. Exposed metal on enamelled baths soon rusts, while cracks in acrylic grow each time the bath moves. Repairing it stops the damage getting worse. If you’re dealing with a cracked acrylic bath and a chip where the taps sit, we can normally put it right, on roll-top & freestanding, whirlpool & spa baths and cast iron enamel alike.
We guarantee the work for a year. If something isn’t right in that time, we come back and put it right.

Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £95. There’s no area surcharge for Wenallt. What changes the price is:
- Doing more than one item at once
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- The material
- What kind of damage it is
There are no surprise extras on the day. The price we quote from your pictures is the price you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.
How to get a fixed quote
Good pictures mean an accurate price. Here’s what we find most useful:
- Any details about the material
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
Pricing is simple: snap the damage close up and then the entire item, send them over with your postcode, and you will get a fixed quote back. Quotes are free and no obligation.
Can I fix it myself?
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 frequently lifts.
For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.
How the visit works
On the day itself, there’s little for you to do. Show us the job, point us to the room, and we will take it from there. The job generally runs to a few hours, depending on the damage, including clearing up.
- We start by looking at the damage and confirming the plan with you.
- Loose enamel, rust and dirt are removed so the repair can bond.
- We build up the filler in layers, shaping it to the bath.
- The colour is tinted by hand until it matches.
- The repair is polished to the same gloss as the bath and left to cure.
How to prepare
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
- Make sure the area is dry
- Have a window or extractor fan available

How to care for the repair
Good habits make a big difference to how long a repair lasts. Here’s what we suggest:
- Do not leave a fresh chip for long
- Don’t scrub with anything abrasive
- Put a towel in the bath if you are working above it
- Use a soft cloth and washing-up liquid for everyday cleaning
A repaired bath needs no special treatment. Avoid bleach-based and gritty cleaners and rinse after use.
Rust spreads under enamel faster than most people expect. Left for months, a small chip can grow into a large rust patch, so it pays to deal with it early.
Wenallt: your questions answered
Is a bath repair permanent?
It should, as long as the bath is firm and the area was prepared well. It’s covered by our one-year guarantee.
Can you price it without visiting?
In nearly every case. If photos don’t show enough, we will ask for another angle.
Can landlords book you?
Yes, frequently. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.
What if the damage is worse than the photos show?
We will show you and explain before doing anything extra. Nothing extra is done without your say-so.
What happens once I’ve sent photos?
We review the pictures and send a fixed quote.
Are there extra charges for Wenallt?
We do not add a call-out fee. Your fixed quote includes everything.
Can you match an avocado or pink bath?
Yes, we match coloured baths too. We tint the finish to your bath on site.
Is there any odour?
There can be some smell while we work, which is why we ventilate. It clears as the materials cure.
Why repair rather than replace?
Swapping a damaged bath for a new one normally involves a plumber, removing the old bath, making good the tiles and panel and getting rid of the old bath. Repairing it deals only with the damage in one visit. Our bath repair starts from £95. It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Send pictures and you will get a fixed figure.

A repair isn’t right for every job, including:
- Cracks in parts of an acrylic bath we cannot get to from below

Landlord and trade work in Wenallt
Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets can’t afford rooms out of action for long, so we keep visits short and tidy. We’ll fit around changeovers where we can.
Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Wenallt use us as well as homeowners. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it usually costs far less than a refit.
Repairs by material
Cast iron
Cast iron is heavy and rigid, finished with fired enamel. Chips can rust if left, but the body of the bath lasts a very long time, so it’s always worth repairing.
Acrylic
Acrylic is light and warm to the touch, but it needs firm support underneath. Repairs to cracks are reinforced from the back.
