Book bath re-enamelling in Aberbeeg

Can I fix it myself?

A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, a professional repair is worth it.

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair won’t last.

Bath re-enamelling in Aberbeeg without replacing anything

Re-enamelling is a one-day job for most baths, with the bath ready to use the following day. Taps, tiles, panels and plumbing all stay in place. Whether it’s lots of chips and rust spots and a period or roll-top bath worth keeping, we can help.

Every job is backed for twelve months. If something goes wrong with the work, we come back.

Work for landlords and builders

We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Aberbeeg as well as householders. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it costs much less than replacing.

Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets can’t afford rooms out of action for long, so we keep visits short and tidy. We can work around your bookings.

Prices and what affects them

Resurfacing from £350. There’s no area surcharge for Aberbeeg. What changes the price is:

  • How many areas need work
  • What kind of damage it is
  • Access to the area
  • Unusual colours or finishes

What it costs depends on how much damage there is and what kind, the material and how many jobs we combine into one visit. We give a fixed quote from your pictures, so there are no surprises on the day.

Send pictures for a quote

Most quotes are done from pictures alone. To help us price it:

  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before

Email us a photo of the damage and a wider shot of the entire item, and tell us you are in Aberbeeg, and we will reply with a fixed price.

Why repair rather than replace?

There are times replacing is better: a cracked-through bath, a change of size or shape, or a full refit. In most other cases, resurfacing is the better choice. Resurfacing from £350, with every job priced individually. Every job is a little different, so each one is priced on its own. The size and type of damage, the material and access all make a difference, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

Your questions about bath re-enamelling in Aberbeeg

How long does re-enamelling last?

That depends on preparation and how the bath is treated. With good preparation and gentle cleaning it lasts a long time, and our work is guaranteed for a year.

Do you cover the whole of Blaenau Gwent?

Across the UK. Prices do not change with location.

Do you hold any accreditations?

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

How do I get a price for bath re-enamelling in Aberbeeg?

Resurfacing from £350. The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from pictures. You know the full cost before anything is booked.

Is repairing better than replacing?

Generally, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. We will be honest if it’s not worth it.

Do you cover Aberbeeg?

Yes. We work across the UK and travel to Aberbeeg. Send us photos for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

Will there be fumes?

A little, during the work. Ventilation keeps it down, and it fades as the finish cures.

Is there a call-out fee?

No. Our quotes include travel, with the same prices everywhere we work.

When to call us in Aberbeeg

Enamel wears gradually. Abrasive cleaners, limescale and years of use dull the surface, usually first under the taps and around the waste.

These are the problems we are asked about most:

  • A bath in a colour that no longer suits
  • A bath that stays dull however much you clean it
  • A period or roll-top bath worth keeping
  • A peeling or bubbling previous coating

What your quote should include

  • What happens if the damage is worse than the pictures show
  • How soon you can use it again
  • Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price
  • Whether there are any call-out or travel charges

Our hiring checklist

How it works

We begin by going over the job with you. Then the area is sheeted and masked and the work begins. You can expect it to take the best part of a day, and we will tell you if anything changes.

  1. We check the bath and agree the finish with you.
  2. Everything around the bath is masked and covered.
  3. We degrease the bath, fix any damage and key the surface.
  4. We apply the primer and then the finish coats.
  5. The masking comes off, we tidy up and tell you when it can be used.

Before we arrive

  • Let the surface dry out before the visit
  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings

Materials and what they mean for the repair

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 is what we repair.

Acrylic

Acrylic baths can be resurfaced too, using a system that bonds to acrylic. The bath needs to be firm and well supported for the finish to last.
