Our bath repair service in CF99

Small damage on a bath is worth repairing early. Exposed metal on enamelled baths soon rusts, and on acrylic, a crack keeps spreading while the bath flexes. Repairing it stops the damage getting worse. Common call-outs are for a chipped rim or side and a hole punched through by something heavy, across acrylic, roll-top & freestanding and whirlpool & spa baths.

From the moment we arrive, we keep the work contained to the one room. Surfaces nearby are masked off, the work takes a few hours, depending on the damage, depending on what we find, and we finish with a tidy-up and a look at the finished work together.

  1. We clean the area and remove any loose enamel or rust.
  2. The chip or crack is filled, then sanded level with the bath.
  3. We tint the finish on the day to suit your bath’s shade of white or colour.
  4. We apply the finish coats and polish the repair so it blends in.
  5. Once it has cured, generally by the day after, the bath is ready to use.

Aftercare tips

Simple care helps the repair last. We recommend:

  • Ensure an acrylic bath is firm underfoot
  • Don’t scrub with anything abrasive
  • Get a dripping tap fixed promptly
  • Store metal items away from the bath

Give the repair the full curing time we recommend before running a bath. After that, gentle cleaning keeps it looking good.

If water is getting through a crack, stop using the bath until it’s repaired. Water under the bath can damage the floor and the ceiling below.

Honest limits

To be straight with you, some problems need a different fix:

  • A bath worn all over, where resurfacing makes more sense
  • A bath that flexes because its feet or cradle have failed (that needs fixing first)
  • Leaking fittings, which need a plumber

How the damage happens

Most bath damage comes from something dropped: bottles, shower heads, tiles and tools. On steel and cast iron baths, a chip that reaches the metal will start to rust.

It’s worth getting a quote if you see:

  • Scratches you can feel with a fingernail
  • Chips on the rim or sides
  • Rusty patches near the plughole
  • Holes from dropped items

Landlords, agents and businesses in CF99

Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs in Cardiff and across the UK. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which is easier on the people living there.

Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover. We can visit several plots in one trip.

What bath repair costs

Prices start from £95. You will know the full cost before you book. We take into account:

  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • What kind of damage it is
  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • Doing more than one item at once

There are no surprise extras on the day. The price we quote from your photos is the price you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.

Getting a price from photos

You can take the pictures on your phone, there is no need for anything special. Just ensure we can see:

  • A wider photo showing the whole bath
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection

Call 0345 017 0787 or use the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the whole bath, we can give you a fixed quote without visiting.
