Bath and surface repairs in NP24

Based in NP24? We cover New Tredegar, Tir-Phil and Cwmsyfïog and the rest of the district, repairing in place.

How bath repair works in NP24

Bath repair is our most common job. Chips on the rim, rust around the waste and cracks in acrylic are all repaired in place, normally in one visit. Typical jobs include snagging damage from a refit and rust by the waste and overflow, across acrylic, whirlpool & spa baths and roll-top & freestanding.

On the day itself, there is little for you to do. Let us in and show us the room, and we will take it from there. Most visits take a few hours.

  1. First, we check the damage against your pictures and agree the plan.
  2. Loose enamel, rust and dirt are removed so the repair can bond.
  3. The damage is filled in layers and shaped to the curve of the bath.
  4. We tint the finish by hand to match the bath.
  5. Finally, it’s polished to match the shine and left to cure.

Prices and what affects them

Repairs from £95. You will know the full cost before booking. We look at:

  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • Access to the area
  • The colour and finish to match
  • How many areas need work

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

Quotes from your pictures

We price nearly every job from photos. This is what to send:

  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • The material, if you know it
  • Details of any past repairs
  • One picture of the entire bath

Getting a price is easy: take a close-up of the damage and a picture from further back, send them over with your postcode, and you will get a fixed quote back. Quotes are free and no obligation.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.

We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.

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 cracks need support from behind to stay fixed.

Cast iron

Cast iron baths are thick and very strong, finished with fired enamel. Chips can rust if left, but the bath itself lasts for generations, which makes it well worth repairing.

Keeping it looking good

To keep it looking its best for years:

  • Rinse it down after each bath
  • Fix dripping taps early to stop staining and limescale
  • Protect the bath with a towel when doing jobs nearby
  • Keep abrasive pads and gritty cleaners away from the bath

There’s nothing special to do after a repair. Skip bleach and gritty creams and give it a rinse after each bath.

Avoid standing in a cracked acrylic bath until it’s fixed. Every use opens the crack a little more, and it can start to leak underneath.

Work for landlords and builders

We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, putting right damage done during fitting. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.

Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in NP24 use us as well as homeowners. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it typically costs far less than a refit.

On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children, mainly so nothing gets touched before it has cured.
