Our bath repair service in CF72
We’ve repaired just about every kind of bath damage: dropped-bottle chips, plughole rust, acrylic cracks and impact holes. Each is repaired in place. We work on whirlpool & spa baths, roll-top & freestanding and cast iron enamel, and the jobs we see most are hairline or through cracks in acrylic and snagging damage from a refit.
We work cleanly and quietly. 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.
- First, we check the damage against your pictures and agree the plan.
- Any rust and loose material comes out, and the area is degreased.
- We build up the filler in layers, shaping it to the bath.
- We tint the finish by hand to match the bath.
- Finally, it’s polished to match the shine and left to cure.
Cost
Prices start from £95. Instead of hourly rates, we fix the price before we start. Damage, material and access decide it.

DIY kit or professional repair?
A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it won’t stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
Repairs by material
Cast iron
A cast iron bath is heavy enough that most people never want to move it. Only the enamel surface wears or chips, and that’s what we repair.
Pressed steel
Steel baths and trays have a thin metal body under the enamel. Exposed steel rusts quickly, so the metal is treated and sealed before the repair.
Landlord and trade work in CF72
For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover. We can visit several plots in one trip.
Rental properties take more wear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.
Should you replace it?
A new bath costs more than the bath itself: taking out the old one, plumbing, tiling, a panel and redecorating. With a repair, it’s one visit and one price.

How the damage happens
Many chips happen while the bathroom is being fitted. Tradespeople drop tools and tiles into the bath, often before anyone notices. Snagging repairs like these are a regular job for us.
The most common problems we are called about are:
- Scuffs and scratches in the surface
- Rust spots around the plughole
- A chip where the taps sit
- Damage done while the bathroom was being fitted
Common questions in CF72
What if the damage is worse than the pictures show?
The price is fixed for what the pictures show. Anything extra is discussed before we begin.
How do I book?
Just photos, your postcode and a contact number. On the day, access to the room.
Is my repair covered?
All our work carries a one-year guarantee. We will explain what it covers when we quote.
Can you repair something that is been repaired before?
Typically, yes. The old repair comes out first.
Can you redo an old repair?
Yes. We take out the old repair and do it properly. Mention it when you send pictures.
Can you repair a hole in a bath?
Generally, yes, if we can reach behind it. The hole is backed, filled and refinished to match.
What about rust by the waste?
Yes. We take out the rust and any loose enamel, fill the area, then colour-match the finish.
