Bath re-enamelling near Blaengarw

For landlords and businesses

Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Blaengarw use us as well as homeowners. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it typically costs far less than a refit.

We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, fixing chips and scratches before handover so nothing needs replacing. We are CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.

Bath re-enamelling at your home in Blaengarw

Cast iron and steel baths are ideal for re-enamelling, and acrylic baths can be resurfaced too. The result is a smooth, even, glossy finish. We are frequently asked to fix thin, worn enamel in places and an original cast iron bath that needs restoring, in Victorian roll-tops, cast iron baths and basins & shower trays.

You’re covered after we leave: each job carries a one-year guarantee, and we explain what it covers before you book.

Blaengarw questions

Can you repair several things at once?

Of course, and it generally saves money. Send pictures of everything together and we will quote them together.

Is the work guaranteed?

Yes, for a year. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.

When can you do it?

That depends on our diary for your area. Send photos with your postcode and we will reply with the earliest dates.

Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?

Generally, when the rest is in good condition. A repair avoids removal and making good. If replacing would be better, we will say so.

Do you cover Blaengarw?

Yes, we do. Technicians travel to Blaengarw from across the region, with no extra charge for travel.

Do you resurface freestanding baths?

Yes, often. The inside is resurfaced, and we can refinish the outside as well.

Is there any odour?

Some materials have a smell while they’re applied. It clears as the materials cure.

Which areas do you work in?

Across the UK, so Blaengarw is covered. Our prices are the same everywhere.

Why repair rather than replace?

Getting a cast iron bath out is hard work: it’s very heavy, may need breaking up, and the replacement can be costly. Resurfacing in place avoids that entirely. Our bath re-enamelling starts from £350. A few things move the price: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

Why us?

  • Everything repaired in place
  • Free fixed quotes from pictures
  • We leave the room as we found it
  • Colours mixed by hand to suit your surface

See our prices page or resurfacing vs replacement cost guide.

Looking after it afterwards

After the repair has cured, a few habits help it last:

  • Do not use the bath until it has fully cured
  • Rinse off hair dye, oils and bath bombs straight away
  • Clean with a soft cloth and mild detergent
  • Keep suction mats out of the bath

Dry the bath after use if possible, especially in hard water areas, and rinse off any bath products.

Do not try to scrub a worn bath back to shine. It just wears the enamel further.

The process

The work is clean and fairly quiet, so you can carry on at home. Protection goes down first, then the job itself takes a full day. Before we leave, we explain the curing time and the aftercare.

  1. The room is masked, protected and ventilated.
  2. Next we degrease the bath and fix chips and rust spots.
  3. We key the surface and put on a bonding primer.
  4. Several coats of new finish are sprayed on.
  5. Once cured, normally by the following day, the bath is ready.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Point us to the nearest place to park
  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
  • Let us know which floor the room is on

Repairs by material

Roll-top and period baths

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

Pressed steel

Under the enamel of a steel bath is thin metal. Exposed steel rusts quickly, so we treat and seal the metal before filling.

Can I fix it myself?

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

What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, then guarantee it for a year.

When to call us in Blaengarw

A dull surface stains and holds dirt, and cleaning harder only makes it worse. At that stage, resurfacing is the fix.

Signs it’s time to call us include:

  • An original cast iron bath that needs restoring
  • A bath that stays dull however much you clean it
  • Staining under the taps and around the waste
  • Several chips and rust patches

What your quote should include

  • When it can be used again
