Bath repair across SA33: what to expect

We have repaired just about every kind of bath damage: chips from dropped bottles, rust round the plughole, cracks in acrylic and holes from falling tools. All of it is repaired where the bath stands with a one-year guarantee. We work on pressed steel enamel, roll-top & freestanding and cast iron enamel, and people most frequently call us about hairline or through cracks in acrylic and chips on the rim or sides.

Here’s how a visit typically runs: we arrive on time, protect everything around the work area, carry out the work and tidy away. Plan for a few hours, depending on the damage from start to finish. Before leaving, we tell you how long to leave it and what to avoid for the first few days.

  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. We build up the filler in layers, shaping it to the bath.
  4. The colour is tinted by hand until it matches.
  5. Finally, it’s polished to match the shine and left to cure.

Near you in Sanclêr

Typical jobs here are in homes near Parish Church of St Mary Magdalene and Black Lion Hotel and the streets around them. Other landmarks nearby include Tin Shed Museum (3.6 miles south) and Llanddowror Motte (2.1 miles south-west). Not far away are Brynhelig.

Honest limits

We would rather lose a job than do one that will not last, so these are the limits:

  • Cracks in parts of an acrylic bath we cannot get to from below
  • Leaks from the waste or overflow fittings (a plumber’s job)
  • Wear across the whole surface, which needs re-enamelling

How to look after the repair

Looking after the surface is easy:

  • Make sure an acrylic bath is firm underfoot
  • Use a soft cloth and washing-up liquid for everyday cleaning
  • Keep abrasive pads and gritty cleaners away from the bath
  • Store metal items away from the bath

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

If an acrylic bath has a crack, stop showering in it until it’s repaired. Every use opens the crack a little more, and it can start to leak underneath.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

It’s natural to want to try a repair 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.

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it won’t stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.

Landlord and trade work in SA33

We are used to working with agents and managing companies. Just send photos, the address and how to get access and we’ll handle the rest.

Letting agents often send us pictures straight from the inventory. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.

Different materials, different repairs

Composite and resin

Composite baths are dense and solid. Chips and scratches are filled and matched, in much the same way.

Cast iron

Cast iron baths are so heavy that repairing in place makes obvious sense. Only the enamel surface wears or chips, and that is the part we put right.

SA33 questions

How long does the repair take to cure?

Most baths can be used the following day. We’ll tell you the exact curing time when we finish.

Are you accredited?

We are accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.

Does someone need to be in?

We need someone to let us in. You do not need to watch us work.

Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?

Usually, if the item is otherwise sound. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. We’ll tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.

Something went through my bath. Can it be fixed?

Generally, yes, if we can reach behind it. The hole is backed, filled and refinished to match.

How do I book?

Photos of the damage, a picture of the entire bath and your postcode. After that, we just agree a date.

Will the price change on the day?

It’s rare, but if it happens we talk to you first. The price only changes if you agree.
