- We match both the colour and the shine.
- We tidy up and tell you when the bath can be used, typically the next day.
Before we arrive
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive

Bath repair in Ynysforgan 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, normally in one visit. We work on cast iron enamel, pressed steel enamel and whirlpool & spa baths, and the jobs we see most are snagging damage from a refit and a kit repair that didn’t last.
All our work is covered by a one-year guarantee.

What else we do in Ynysforgan
Aftercare tips
Most damage we see is avoidable. A few tips:
- Protect the bath with a towel when doing jobs nearby
- Avoid scourers, wire wool and gritty cream cleaners
- Keep metal cans and razors off the surface
- Use a soft cloth and washing-up liquid for everyday cleaning
There’s nothing special to do after a repair. Avoid bleach-based and gritty cleaners and give it a rinse after each bath.
Rust under enamel spreads surprisingly quickly. A chip the size of a fingernail can become a much larger patch if it’s left for months, so it pays to deal with it early.
What a repair can’t fix
Not everything can be repaired, and we will tell you before we start. We can’t fix:
- Leaking fittings, which need a plumber
- Wear across the entire surface, which needs re-enamelling
- Cracks in parts of an acrylic bath we cannot get to from below
If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think before you book.

Common questions in Ynysforgan
How do I get a price for bath repair in Ynysforgan?
Prices start from £95. Every job gets a fixed quote based on pictures of the damage. Send a close-up and a photo of the whole item and your postcode.
Can tenants book a repair?
Yes. Check with your landlord; we can send the quote to them too.
Is a bath repair durable?
It should, as long as the bath is firm and the area was prepared well. It carries our one-year guarantee.
How invisible is a bath repair?
On a glossy bath, you’ll struggle to find it. On older, dull enamel the repair can look glossier than the area around it.
Is my repair covered?
Yes: twelve months. If there’s a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.
I tried a repair kit. Can you fix it?
Yes, we do this often. We strip it out, deal with any rust and repair it again.
Are there extra charges for Ynysforgan?
Travel is included in the price, and we charge the same wherever you are.
How quickly can you book me in?
It depends on the time of year and where you are. We will offer you dates when we send your quote.
Should you replace it?
Think about the hidden costs of a new bath: removal and disposal, plumbing, a new panel, tiling and decorating. A repair is one job, done in one visit. Prices start from £95. Instead of hourly rates, we price the entire job up front. Damage, material and access decide it, and combining items on one visit brings it down.
Why Ynysforgan clients choose us
- One visit for most repairs
- A year’s guarantee on all work

Do you need bath repair in Ynysforgan?
Many chips happen while the bathroom is being fitted. Tools, tiles and fittings get dropped into the bath, and the damage isn’t always spotted until later. Snagging repairs like these are a regular job for us.
Contact us if you’ve noticed:
- Cracks in an acrylic bath
- Chips along the edge of the bath
- Scuffs and scratches in the surface
- An old repair that has yellowed or come loose
Before you book anyone

- A fixed quote, and whether VAT is included

Should I try a DIY kit first?
A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it will not stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is generally the cheaper route.
Materials and what they mean for the repair
Acrylic
An acrylic bath is a moulded sheet strengthened from below. They don’t 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 are filled and matched, just like other baths.
What bath repair costs
Prices start from £95. You won’t pay by the hour. The price is based on:
- Unusual colours or finishes
- Access to the area
- The size and number of damaged areas
- The material
The price depends on the type and amount of damage, the material and how many items we do on one visit. You get a fixed price from your photos, so there are no surprises on the day.
Quotes from your photos
You can take the pictures on your phone, there is no need for anything special. Just make sure we can see:
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- The material, if you know it
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
Most customers in Ynysforgan get their price from pictures. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we will send back a fixed quote and some dates.
