Prices and what affects them
Repairs from £95. We charge the same across the UK, including Rhyd-y-fro. What changes the price is:
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- What kind of damage it is
- Unusual colours or finishes
- The size and number of damaged areas
Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is usually a fraction of the price, because there is no removal, plumbing or making good. The quote lists exactly what you’re paying for.
Quotes from your photos
A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. It helps if you send:
- Where you are, by postcode
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
Pricing is simple: take a close-up of the damage and a photo from further back, send them over with your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed price. There is no charge for the quote and no obligation.
When a repair is not the answer
To be straight with you, there are a few things a repair won’t fix:
- A crack that leaks water
- A crack through the bowl or trap
- A loose pan or leaking seal (that’s a plumbing job)
Not sure? Send photos and we’ll give you a straight answer before you book.

DIY repairs versus a professional job
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
Common questions in Rhyd-y-fro
