Bath re-enamelling in Argoed

Bath re-enamelling in Argoed without replacing anything

Re-enamelling gives a worn bath a new glossy surface without taking anything out. It suits baths that are dull, stained, rough or chipped all over. Whether it’s a bath that stays dull however much you clean it and an outdated colour you’d like to change, we can usually put it right, on Victorian roll-tops, cast iron baths and basins & shower trays alike.

Big or small, it’s backed by a one-year guarantee.

How to care for the repair

A little care keeps the finish looking good. We recommend:

  • Respect the curing time we give you
  • Dry the bath after use to stop limescale
  • Repair dripping taps early
  • Rinse off hair dye, oils and bath bombs immediately

Use mild, non-abrasive cleaners, avoid suction bath mats, and keep bottles and razors off the surface.

Don’t try to scrub a worn bath back to shine. It removes more of the surface and makes resurfacing more work.

Repairs by material

Cast iron

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

Roll-top and period baths

We can resurface a roll-top inside and out, with the outside refinished as well.

Prices and what affects them

Resurfacing from £350. We do not charge extra for travel to Argoed. The price comes down to:

  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • The colour and finish to match
  • The material and finish
  • Access to the area

Instead of hourly rates, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access.

Quotes from your photos

It only takes a minute to photograph the damage, and it saves a visit. Please include:

  • Where you are, by postcode
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • Details of any past repairs
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area

A quote takes minutes to ask for: take one close-up and one wider shot of the bath, include your postcode and send them to us. What comes back is a fixed quote, not a guess.

Can I fix it myself?

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, 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 often lifts.

We understand the appeal of fixing it 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.

What we do, step by step

Your technician turns up when we said we would, introduces themselves and checks the damage against your photos first. The floor and nearby surfaces are covered before we open a single tin. The work itself takes most of the day, and we leave the room as we found it.

  1. First we look the bath over and confirm the finish.
  2. Everything around the bath is masked and covered.
  3. The bath is degreased, repaired and keyed.
  4. Primer and finish coats are applied.
  5. The masking comes off, we tidy up and tell you when it can be used.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Clear the area around the damage
  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings

Advice

Questions from Argoed

Can I add another job to the visit?

Yes, and it’s often cheaper. Just add the extra items to your photos and you will get one combined price.

What areas do you cover?

The whole UK, including all of Flintshire. Send your postcode with your pictures and we will offer you dates.

Will it make a mess?

We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and we clean up when we have finished.

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

Prices start from £350. We give a fixed price based on pictures of the damage. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo with your CH7 postcode.

Do you do work for letting agents?

Yes. We carry out repairs for homeowners, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses.

Can I get a quote without a visit?

Normally, yes. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed price.

Can you make a coloured bath white?

Yes, white is the usual choice. Mention the colour you want when you send photos.

Is a repair better than a new one?

Usually, if the item is otherwise sound. A repair avoids removal and making good. If replacing would be better, we will say so.

Work for landlords and builders

For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover, so there is no need to replace a damaged item at the last minute. Several plots can be done in one visit.

Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets cannot afford rooms out of action for long, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We will fit around changeovers where we can.

What we cannot put right

In fairness, there are a few things a repair will not fix:

  • A cast iron or steel bath that is cracked right through
  • A poorly supported acrylic bath, until it’s firmed up
  • Holes rusted through the metal

Not sure? Send photos and we will give you a straight answer before booking.

Surfaces we repair

  • Cast iron baths
  • Basins & shower trays
  • Acrylic baths
  • Pressed steel baths
  • Victorian roll-tops

What we are called out for in Argoed

Enamel’s shine is only skin deep, and abrasive cleaning slowly wears it away. Eventually the surface turns porous and stains.

Keep an eye out for any of the following:

  • A dull, rough surface that will not come clean
  • Staining under the taps and around the waste
  • Several chips and rust patches
  • A period or roll-top bath worth keeping

  • Whether they match the colour on site
  • How your room will be protected
